    “Boss, Earl attempted to escape half an hour ago, but we managed to capture him.”


    Duke’s eyes turned stormy. “Keep a close watch on him. Do not let him escape!”


    “Don’t worry, Boss. I have assigned ten more people to stand guard over the basement. He can’t


    possibly escape this ce even if he has gods helping him now.”


    Duke hung up. He frowned. Adina stroked his cheek. “Don’t worry. There must be a way to solve all


    this.”


    Duke patted her back and spoke gently, “Let’s go home first. We need to find an excuse for our


    children.”


    IN


    They discussed what to tell their kids when they got home. Soon, they arrived at the Winters family’s


    mansion. Preschool had ended early. So, the children were already home. They were all in the living


    room, talking to Mabel.


    Adina and Duke entered the mansion, hand-in hand. When the children saw them, they quickly


    surrounded them.


    Harold chirped, “Mommy, aren’t you supposed to rest at home? Why did you go out?” “Daddy, you


    promised to take good care of Mommy,” said Melody, pouting her lips. “How could you break your


    promise?’ “Mommy, why did you leave the house in pajamas?” Alden frowned.


    George furrowed his eyebrows. “And with a pair of slippers only.”


    Duke had found the slippers in the trunk of his car. He had let Adina wear them.”


    Adina smiled warmly at her children. “Your daddy took a stroll with me because I was bored. We didn’t


    go far, so I went out in pajamas and slippers. What’s all the fuss about?”


    Mabel frowned from the couch.


    Two hours ago, Adina and Duke had fought suddenly inside the master bedroom. Later, Adina had


    driven out of the mansion and Duke chased after her.


    For a moment, Mabel thought Earl hade back. Adina only lost her cool when Earl was around


    But when Mabel saw Duke enter the house, she knew that she was just overthinking. Maybe she


    missed Lari too much.


    Mabel smiled sadly and got up to leave ” Mother, please wait a while I have something to tell you,” said


    Duke calmly.


    Mabel was astonished. Duke never called her “mother”. Even Adina always addressed her as Mrs.


    Winters


    Mabel suppressed the emotion in her heart. “Of course. If you have anything to say, I am all


    ears.”


    “I n to move out and stay outside for a month with Adina,” Duke said. “Will you be willing to take care


    of our children during this period of time?”


    Mabel was shocked. Her lips quivered. “Duke, if it is because of me, you don’t need to leave. I


    can go. You only need to say it.”


    “Mother, that is not what we mean,” Adina said. “I am so sorry if it came out like that. I’m in the middle


    of the Jones Corporation session contest. An issue urred in the resort project, so I have to stay


    somewhere near the site. Duke is worried about me, so he insists on


    <ping with me.”
