My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 564

Chapter 564

Adina lay on the bed. She kept tossing and turning, but she could not fall asleep.

While she had insomnia, the phone under her pillow vibrated. She took a peek and found that it was a video call from Duke.

She immediately answered the call.

"Dear, are you still awake?"

A sweet feeling filled Adina's heart. "I can't sleep. What about you?"

"I can't sleep either." Duke leaned to the side in bed, and his gaze was affectionate. "I don't know who came up with such a rule to separate us."

Adina chuckled and said, "We're just not together for one day. Can you be more mature?"

"Why should I be mature in front of my wife?" Duke stared at the phone screen and said, "Rest well tonight. I'll pick you up early in the morning."

"Don't even think about it. My grandma mentioned that the time to pick the bride up has been fixed. It's apparently at 10.08 am." Duke appeared gloomy. "I can only see you in another eleven hours." Adina smiled faintly again.

The two of them kept chatting until Adina closed her eyes and

fell asleep soundly.

She was awakened by Mdm. Xavier the next day.

She turned around and looked out the window. The sky was still dark. She rubbed her eyes and took a look at the time. It was only 4.30 am.

That meant she had just slept for three hours.

"Grandma..." Adina held the blanket tightly and refused to wake up. "It's still very early. Please let me sleep for a while longer."

Mdm. Xavier felt like she was looking at Olivia again. Her gaze grew more affectionate, but she made herself look stern and said, "You're the bride today. You can't dawdle in bed. Come on, wake up now." Adina's eyes remained closed as she sat up in bed. After she washed her face, Mdm. Xavier took her to the makeup room.

Adina was extremely sleepy. She had stayed on the call with Duke until midnight, and she felt as if she was awakened before she could even fall asleep.

She simply allowed the makeup artist to apply cosmetic products on her face while she closed her eyes and continued sleeping.

When she heard some familiar voices, she immediately opened her eyes.

As soon as she did so, she saw four faces that were almost identical. "Why are you here?"

Harold giggled. "We came to see you off, Mommy.";

Adina did not know whether to cry or laugh.

She thought that the kids would come with Duke to pick her up for the wedding. So, did this mean she had to bring her four little kids along and marry into the Winters family right now? "Mommy, you're so beautiful!" Melody rested her face on Adina's, and her eyes were filled with admiration.

Adina knew that her daughter loved to dress up. She pinched her little cheek and asked, "Did you bring your flower-girl gown?"

Melody nodded.

George lifted a bag that he was carrying and said, "Mommy, I've brought their gowns."

Following that, the makeup artist applied the children's makeup and dressed them up.

With the kids around, Adina's sleepiness disappeared. The makeup room was lively, and she broke into a sweet happy smile. Anyone would be envious of her at that moment.
