My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) -
Chapter 606
Chapter 606 All the food this man had while they were eating just now was sweet, including sweet smoked ribs, coke braised wings, and glutinous rice balls. He had always preferred bland food and disliked sweet food.
He also ate in a sloppy and casual manner. He possessed absolutely zero traits of an heir brought up by a noble family.
She had not realized it before, but after giving it some thought, she noticed that the man in question differed from the past Duke in a number of ways, including his mannerisms, gestures, and way of speaking. "Wait!" Adina abruptly said.
Earl had just grabbed the doorknob, but his eyes darkened before he turned around and coldly asked, "What else do you want to say?"
"You don't want to get divorced, right?" Adina slowly said, "If you don't come home every night, I can only think of getting a divorce. I hope you can stay tonight, for me to decide if you are still worthy of me to maintain our marriage."
"You want me to stay and sleep with you?" Earl asked with a smirk.
"I don't mind," Adina calmly said. "What bedding color do you like? I'll change them for you."
Earl looked at the tidy pink bed and said with interest, "This is
nice. I'll go take a shower."
He returned to the room, took off and tossed his black suit jacket on the couch before taking long strides towards the bathroom.
Adina's face fell again after watching him.
Duke was an absolute clean freak. He always hung his clothes neatly on the clothes rack outside the bathroom before taking a shower. Never would he toss it around carelessly. She pursed her lips, opened the door, and headed downstairs.
It was getting late, and Mrs. Winters was already reading bedtime stories to the four kids in their bedroom.
Adina walked out of the mansion and saw Mr. Brown watering the plants outside. The old man seemed to be in a good mood as he worked while humming to some music. "What brings you here, Ms. Adina?"
Once he saw Adina, Mr. Brown hurriedly put down the work in his hands and approached her while smiling.
"Oh, I just wanted to check in and see how the kids have been doing at school these few days," Adina smiled and asked. "I was too busy with work, and it's been a few days since I last spoke with the preschoo teacher, so I wanted to ask you about it, Mr. Brown."
Actually, she would ask the teacher about the kids' performance in school every day.
"The young masters and young lady have been doing very well in
school," Mr. Brown said proudly. "Young Master George and Young Master Alden are the brightest kids in class, Young Master Harold is really active in school, and Young Lady Melody is the most adored child there."
Adina listened to him with a grin on her face and asked without moving a muscle, "Which child's personality do you think is the most similar to their father's, Mr. Brown?"
"It's Young Master George, of course," Mr. Brown immediately said. "Young Master George is composed and already starting to handle company matters at the age of four. He's going to take over as the next successor to Winters Corporation."
"Hmm, but I don't think so?" Adina said, "Just take daily habits as an example. Duke really enjoys eating sweet food, while George dislikes them."
"I believe you have mistaken, Ms. Adina?" Mr. Brown asked confusedly. "It's obvious that Master Duke dislikes sweet foods. He has never liked them since he was a child, and would spit out any food that included even a tiny amount of sugar."
Adina's eyes twinkled.
Her observations appeared to be accurate.
But what was the reason that caused someone who never liked sweets to begin accepting and even appear to enjoy them?
"Mr. Brown, don't you think that Duke seems like a different person sometimes?" Adina asked once again.
"I do feel that Master Duke has changed recently." Mr. Brown suddenly sighed. "I watched Master Duke as he grew up, and
when his father passed away ten years ago, Master Duke's personality changed for the following three years. When people were around, he was a different person, and when they weren't, he showed a different side of himself."
"Colin!"
Mrs. Winters suddenly appeared with a raised voice.
Mr. Brown jumped and quickly bowed and respectfully said," Sorry Madam, I shouldn't have spoken that nonsense. I'll go and get busy with my work now."
He hurriedly entered the mansion after saying that.
Adina looked up and noticed that Mrs. Winters was looking livid.
