Chapter 545


    Chapter 545


    About five chefs stood at the dining hall’s entrance, each with a smile on their faces and teasing looks.


    “Cough!” Adina nearly choked to death from her own saliva.


    That meant that her and Duke’s ‘activities’ fromst night were known to all the mansion’s servants…


    Mabel walked over to Adina with a smile and said, “You’re up early, Adina. Have some saffron chicken


    stew. It’s nourishing for women and…”


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    “T-thank you, Mrs. Winters.”


    Adina lowered her head and drank her stew, not even daring to look at the people around her.


    This morning was the most embarrassing one she ever had in her whole twenty-three years of living.


    She wanted to bury herself in a hole.


    She felt very frustrated at the thought of Duke still sleeping soundly.


    But at that very moment, a well-rehearsed “Good morning, Mr. Duke” echoed in the dining hall in


    unison.


    Adina subconsciously turned around to see Duke enter the dining hall while dressed in a silver suit.


    Who could have imagined the tenderness and clinginess of this man in bedst night when he was so


    nicely dressed and


    sporting his usual cold and stern eyes?


    Adina discreetly threw a re at him.


    Duke sat down beside her and gulped down half of the asparagus soup with a straight face.


    Adina was at a loss for words.


    Why did she think she would be screwed tonight? 1


    “Don’t drink too much of that,” she hurriedly said as she


    snatched the bowl out of his hands. “You’ll get heaty.”


    Duke looked at her with a vague smile and said, “It makes no difference whether I drink that or not.”


    Adina’s face turned red due to the extreme double meaning slipped into his statement.


    “I want to drink it too.” Harold licked his lips. “Asparagus soup sounds delicious. Mommy, can you get


    me a bowl too?”


    Adina was speechless.


    ‘Why would this kid want to drink this?’


    Mabel quickly picked Harold up and said, “Asparagus soup is not tasty at all. I’ll take you to get some


    ice cream instead, okay?”


    “Ice cream!” Mel’s eyes lit up as well while saying, “I want to have it too, Grandma!”


    Mabel led the two little rascals who were easier to coax out to the yard.


    George and Alden sat at the dining table and quietly ate their shrimp risotto.


    After almost finishing his meal, Duke calmly said, “George, bring Alden to thepany today to


    familiarize him with the operation process.”.


    “Didn’t we agree to send the kids to preschool?” Adina frowned disapprovingly.


    “There’s no conflict between sending him to school and thepany,” Duke drawled. “Keeping Alden


    at the preschool every day will just be a waste of his extraordinary intelligence. Look, Harold is not a


    particrly bright kid. Do you see me sending him to thepany?”


    .

    Harold, who was ying wildly at the yard, sneezed and carried on ying excitedly like a little piglet.


    Adina pursed her lips and said, 11 respect your choice, Alden.”


    “I can do it, Mommy,” Alden replied obediently. “I will follow George’s lead and learn how to run the


    company properly.”


    He was not overly concerned about the technical aspects because he was running a hacker studio.


    However, hecked business management experience, so it was the perfect time for him to learn it.


    “I will teach Alden well. Don’t worry about it, Mommy.” George nodded.


    Adina had no choice but to nod in agreement. “Okay. But don’t be too hard on yourself, Al. You won’t


    have to go if you’re not used to it.”


    Alden nodded obediently.


    After breakfast, George brought Alden to thepany, while Mabel brought Harold and Melody to the


    yground.
