Chapter 493
Duke’s face was cast in sadness.
As he saw the pure and bright smile on Melody’s face, his gloominess slowly dissipated.
Suddenly, his body froze.
How did Adina know about Melody’s disappearance?
Who told her?
Moreover, when she had called him earlier, it was obvious from her tone that something was not right!
He was so concerned about Melody’s safety when he answered the phone that he forgot to ask Adina
how everything was on her side…

Duke took out his cell phone and dialed Adina’s number, but even after three consecutive calls, no one
picked up. When he called again, the other phone had been turned off.
“Duke, what happened? Why are you pulling such a long face?” Mrs. Winters asked worriedly.
Duke Winters said, “Earl Winters managed to lure me away from thepany, and something has
happened to Adina.”
“What?” Mrs. Winters’ face turned white, and her lips trembled. “ No, it can’t be, Earl is good now, he
wouldn’t be up to no good anymore… he must be ying a joke on you…”
“I hope that’s the case, too.” Duke clenched his fist and said coldly, “Take Melody home immediately,
and don’t tell the children about their mother’s disappearance! ”
With that said, he got into his car. He took out hisptop, and his fingers flew over the keyboard.
But this time, he could not find a precise location.
Earl knew of his hacking skills, so he had deliberately used a VPN to block all the signals that could let
Duke trace him…
Duke leaned back in the driver’s seat and rubbed his forehead furiously.
If something happened to Adina, he would never forgive himself!
He took a deep breath, and hundreds of location names ran through his mind…
Earl’s appearances in Sea City were few and far in between, and the ces he could go to were
limited. Where could he have taken Adina to? Where in the world would he go?
Duke organized all of the ces in his mind, then eliminated them one by one until he narrowed it
down to three locations.
One was when Earl first came to Sea City. He kept it a secret from the family and hid in a warehouse
by the sea for half a month.
Another was on the day of their father’s first death anniversary. Earl had snuck in to pay his respects.
He had to hide in the manor outside the cemetery for about ten days before he got his opportunity to
visit their father’s grave…
Thest was Earl’s secret base in Sea City. His undergroundpany’s division was hidden in an old
neighborhood…
‘These three locations…’
Duke made a call to ask Jake to look into the underground division.
‘As for the other two locations…’
His eyes darkened, and he drove toward the seaside warehouse.
He was willing to bet that there is still a shred of good in Earl’s heart. He was willing to bet that Earl
would not do anything to Adina near his father’s grave…
The car sped along the road.
On the way back to the Winters’ mansion, Alden had a feeling that something bad was going to
happen. His expression was dark, and he looked out the car window in deep silence.
Meanwhile, Harold remainedpletely worry-free and grabbed Alden’s arm. “Are you unhappy
because you saw that my IQis as high as yours?”
The corners of George’s mouth twitched. “Harold, can you be any dumber?”
“I’m not dumb!” Harold lifted his chin and snorted. “The grown ups today said our IQlevels are the same,
you can’t call me dumb anymore, hmph!”
“Obviously, today’s result was a fluke,” Harold said coldly, “Papa Brown wanted us to stay away from
whatever was going on, that’s why we were brought to take that IQtest.”
At this, Mr. Brown, who was driving, stayed silent.
He had been so discreet. How did the eldest young master figure it out so easily?
Maybe he was the dumb one?
