My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke)
Chapter 586

Chapter 586

"One more sentence, and you won't receive your salary this month!" Mr. Roberts reprimanded his secretary before he turned around and entered his office.

His secretary stomped his feet in dissatisfaction, but he could not do anything.

Adina had no idea what was happening in the company next door.

The moving process was fast. In less than an hour, everything had been moved to Daugherty Corporation's building.

Adina instructed the HR Department to place the office supplies, and everything was back to normal. When she returned from the restroom, she suddenly felt everyone around her look at her with a strange gaze.

"Ms. Daugherty, please have some rest in your office first." Serene walked Adina to the CEO's office. She spoke in a way that felt like she was embarrassed. "Ms. Daugherty, if you have time, you can check ou the news on your phone."

Adina did not understand. "Is the news related to me?"

Serene's eyes were filled with sympathy. "It's related to Mr. Winters."

Adina's heart sank for some reason.

She took out her phone. Before she tapped on the news page, a message popped up on her phone's notification bar.

[Duke Winters, the CEO of Winters Corporation had fun with a dancer at a nightclub last night. He seemed flirtatious and playful, raising suspicions.)

After she opened the news, she found the bottom of the page filled with netizens' comments.

(What the heck? I thought Duke didn't like being around women? Why is he messing around when he just got married half a month ago?]

[Is the most beautiful woman in Sea City not beautiful enough? Why does he want to have an affair?]

(Didn't they say that they've been married for five years? He must be bored with her, so he's looking for excitement and something fresh outside.]

(But Duke loves Adina so much. How could he have an affair? Someone must have intentionally photoshopped this! I don't believe it!]

Adina did not want to believe it either.

However, the photos that the paparazzi had taken were clear. The laser lights in the nightclub were shining on the man's face, and his features did not look very different from how they did half a month ago But he had seemingly become slimmer, and his facial outline was sharper..

The man's thin lips had been captured with a playful smile as he held the dancer's chin with his long fair hand.

The two of them were looking into each other's eyes, and the whole thing gave off a seductive air.

Adina's heart instantly sank.

"Ms. Daugherty, this... this should be a misunderstanding..." Serene comforted her awkwardly. "The paparazzi always create their own stories based on pictures. They must also have created this story with their photos..."

"It's fine. Carry on with your work."

Adina patted Serene on the shoulder and flashed her a smile as if she could not be bothered.

Serene cast a worrying gaze at her and left, but she kept looking back.

Adina then walked into her office and closed the door.

She stood in front of a French window and looked at the buildings outside indifferently.

If the news was real, that meant her husband had already returned to Sea City from his business trip yesterday, but he did not come home.

Instead, he went dancing with a nightclub dancer.

A flirtatious gaze did not mean anything, but the Duke Winters she knew would not have done such a thing.

She could understand his sudden coldness and detachment, but she could not believe that a man who had not been around women for more than twenty years would suddenly enjoy

hanging out at nightclubs. Had he just been pretending to avoid women in the past?
