Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy
Chapter 1584

Three days had already passed since the incident with Kelly. The voice supporting Joseph Grant was getting louder and louder. After this incident, there were more and more people supporting him, and this was the result of his positive image.

In fact, before Joseph Grant chose to do this task, he had received a lot of advice from important members of the political world, who let him not have to personally participate in it.

But at this sharp edge, Joseph Grant naturally could not let this matter go. Furthermore, the culprit had mentioned his name, if he did not reveal himself, that would cause the people who trusted him to feel disappointed.

After the operation on the Old President, his recovery was very ordinary, Duke stood by his side, watching over him closely.

The Old President was very gratified, but also very disappointed. It had been so hard to nurture an heir, but Duke didn't have the slightest determination to fight for power, which made him very sad.

"Uncle, I might have to ask Betty to come and take care of you next. In the next two days, I'll be teaching at the National Military Academy, and the letter of appointment has already come down. I need to report tomorrow morning. If there's anything you need, Betty can call me and I'll be there in time." Duke sat on the side of Old President's sickbed and said.

Old President glared at him in anger. "Are you really going to be a coach? As the dignified leader of the base, you become a teacher, you sure are disgraceful. Duke, our Wood Family will lose all face because of you, who knows how many people will come to laugh at us. "

"Uncle, you're thinking too much. As long as it's a proper job, no one can laugh me about it. It's all to contribute to the country." However, Duke's state of mind was calm, and did not mind being demoted at all. "You are very positive, but I'm going to be angered to death by you. Just leave." Old President's heart was not good to begin with. At this moment, he was so angry that his face had turned green. This nephew of his truly had all sorts of ways to make him unhappy.

"Uncle, rest well, give me a call if you need anything." Duke didn't want to tell him anymore, so he turned around, packed up the things on the bed and left.

"Duke, wait a moment." Just as he was about to open the door and leave, the Old President called out to him.

Duke stopped and turned to look at him, asking: "Uncle, is there anything else?"

"Why didn't you even meet the girl I introduced to you last time? Do you know that you won't get a wife like this?" When Old President thought about this matter, he became extremely angry. Duke's handsome face froze, and then, he said indifferently: "Uncle, you don't have to worry about my marriage. This matter, requires fate, and can't be forced."

"What is fate? You don't even know the other party's appearance, how did you get such fate? I called her in the morning and told him to treat you to dinner as an apology. If you don't want to see me choke from your anger, you must go and apologize tonight and properly explain this to the girl." The Old President could not count on anything else, he only hoped that the Wood Family would quickly have a descendant. If Duke could get married and give birth to a child, the Mu Family would at least have some hope.

"Uncle, I..." Duke wanted to refuse on the spot, but he heard the Old President coughing violently without end.

"Alright, I'll treat her to a meal." Duke saw that he was coughing on purpose, and could only agree helplessly.

The doctor said that he could not let him be angry or excited. Coughing would not help him recover from his wounds.

"Remember, perform well this time, and don't disappoint me again. I've investigated that girl's background and character and she has a clean background. You shouldn't be too picky. It's good to have such a woman willing to follow you. "Old President was afraid that he would become a deserter, so she warned him repeatedly.

Duke was a little speechless, he closed the door to the ward and walked towards the elevator with his head lowered.

On the first floor, his SUV was parked in the parking lot next to the garden. As he walked to the car, he saw a petite body leaning lazily against the driver's side of the driver's door, wearing earplugs, as if enjoying the spring sunshine.

Seeing the uninvited Wendy, Duke's heart suddenly shook. He immediately walked over with an indifferent expression, and patted her shoulder. Wendy immediately took off her headphones, and turned to smile at him. Her clear and lively eyes also curved into the shape of a crescent moon. "Duke, what a coincidence." Wendy was a little embarrassed as she raised his hand to greet him.

The man's expression turned cold. "What coincidence? Didn't you know that this was my car?"

Seeing that he was not giving face, Wendy could only sigh: "Alright, I came looking for you on purpose. Today's school break, I have nowhere to go."

Duke replied with an awkward excuse, he curled his lips in disapproval: "There's nowhere else to go? Didn't you claim that you had a wide range of relationships and that you have many friends?" "When did I ever say like that? In the past when I was young, of course I had a lot of friends. Now that I have matured, I can't casually make friends." Wendy put her hands behind her back and raised her small face, as she spoke with a serious expression.

Duke's brows twitched, he wanted to laugh but was unable to do so. However, this girl's look of spouting lies was really cute, causing others to be unable to do anything to her.

"So you really don't have any friends now?" Duke coordinated with her acting.

"Yes, my female friends are all in the same school. We meet every day, but I don't have any male friends anymore. You're the only one." Wendy immediately nodded.

"Say it, what do you want to do now?" Duke couldn't quarrel with her, he could only surrender.

Wendy was careful that she did not succeed, and revealed the little fox's tail. She lowered her head and twisted her fingers, and said softly: "Are you free in the afternoon? Let's go out and play."

Duke saw that she had suddenly become bashful, and his heart trembled. Looking at her deer like black eyes looking at him in anticipation, he actually could not reject his.

"Sorry, I had something to do in the afternoon." Duke said, he opened the car door and directly sat inside, and in the next second, he fiercely closed the door.

He shut her expectant eyes out of the car door.

The girl's petite body trembled as the huge SUV started to move. She subconsciously took a few steps back.

Wendy was stunned, she never thought that Duke would actually reject her so straightforwardly.

Had she come to the wrong place?

Duke stared in front of her, deliberately ignoring her wounded eyes.

In the next second, he stepped on the throttle and the car shot out.

Wendy had never been treated coldly like this before, she was stunned.

Just as Duke drove out of the car park, he saw the few staff members beside his big uncle walking towards him. His mind shook, and immediately, he backed away the car. Wendy watched as he moved forward and then backwards. His speed was so fast that she thought he was going to crush her. She froze on the spot, unable to even move her legs. However, the man was very good at driving, he just parked the car back to its original position. Next, he rolled down the window and said sternly, "Get in."

Wendy quickly opened the door of the back seat and climbed in.

"Kneel down, don't let my uncle's men see you." Duke strongly commanded her.

Wendy looked out and saw a few men in suits walking towards her. She was shocked and immediately squatted down in the back seat and hid.

"Wendy, do you want to die? You clearly know that my uncle is hospitalized here, yet you still dare to run here alone." Duke was very angry and scolded her mercilessly.

"I'm not afraid because you are here." Wendy pouted and said with an arrogant tone.

Duke was truly angered to the point of exploding, his face darkened as he scolded: "Did you know that my uncle still harbors hatred towards your big brother? In case he wants to drag you down with him, have you considered the consequences?"

"I just wanted to see you." Wendy was scolded to the point that she didn't dare to breathe. Indeed, it was very dangerous for her to come here on her own, but this man seemed to have magic, luring her to come here and take risks.

"Let's not meet again in the future." Duke said coldly.

"Why? Do you hate me?" When Wendy saw that the car had already left the hospital, she immediately stuck out her head. The long hair that had just passed her shoulders accentuated her youthful and beautiful face, just like the sun rising, full of vitality and hope.

Duke looked at her beautiful face through the mirror, and his heart once again became chaotic.
