Chapter 587

Adina held a red wine glass and finished its contents.

Before she finished her work at the company, she took her car keys and drove back to the Winters family's mansion.

It was 3:00 pm when she arrived at the Winters family's mansion. The children were still having classes in preschool. It was the new education plan that Adina had set for the kids. Harold and Melody would attend preschool five days every week, while George and Alden would attend it three days a week. No matter how smart the children were, they had to follow a child's normal path of growth step by step.

Mrs. Winters was sitting in the living room and watching TV. She turned around when she heard the sound of the car engine. The moment Adina walked in, she was taken aback, but it soon dawned upon her.

"I'm back, Mom."

Adina stood at the hallway's entrance and changed her shoes. She appeared calm.

Mrs. Winters dared not confirm her guess. She walked over with a smile and asked, "Aren't you moving your office today? Done so soon?"

Adina nodded before she indifferently said, "Duke's back in Sea City. He came back yesterday. Did you know?"

".... I just found out..." Mrs. Winters looked away, sighed, and

said, "Duke's a workaholic. Once he starts working, he can't be bothered with anything else. I just read the news. I think it was an impromptu performance with a client during the discussion of a collaboration. Addy, you wouldn't be angry at Duke because of this, would you?"

Adina stared at Mrs. Winters for a few seconds before she smiled without answering.

Winters Corporation had the power to manipulate Sea City. It was always Duke's clients who cooperated with him. How could Duke provide an impromptu performance for the client?

Her mother-in-law had the audacity to give such an obviously flawed excuse to defend her son.

"Of course I won't get mad." Adina smiled faintly. "I was just wondering why he didn't inform me when he came back to Sea City. I'm still his wife, after all." "Maybe... Maybe he was too busy." Mrs. Winters smiled awkwardly and said, "Addy, don't worry. I'll teach him a lesson for you. He'll never dare do this again." "Let's hope so."

After Adina said that, she walked to the master bedroom on the second floor.

Once she closed the door, Mrs. Winters finally sighed in relief and leaned on the couch weakly.

"Madam." Mr. Brown walked inside. "I saw on the news that the master is back from his business trip. Will he come home today? Do we need to prepare a welcoming dinner?" Mrs. Winters chuckled in resignation. "Just make preparations for it."

She could not contact this son, and she had no idea whether he would come back either.

Things had completely spiraled out of her control now. She did not know what to do. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She had already lost a son. No matter what, she had to keep covering this up.

Mrs. Winters suppressed the tears in her eyes before she softly said, "Let's go and pick the kids up from preschool."

Lately, Mrs. Winters had always been the one to pick the kids up from preschool.

When the car stopped in front of the preschool, the children held hands and entered the car together. They called her "Grandma," which made her really happy.

"I have some good news for you." Mrs. Winters grinned and said, "Your dad is back!"

"Wow! Really?" Melody was the happiest one. She covered her face and said, "Papa Brown, drive home now. Hurry! I want to go back and see Daddy!"

"Young Masters, Young Lady, don't rush. The master will only be back later," Mr. Brown responded as he drove.

"Okay." Melody-looked disappointed before she excitedly said," No matter how late Daddy gets home, I'll still wait for him!"

Mrs. Winters' gaze turned bitter.

She hid her emotions and softly said, "Your Dad's been very busy during his business trip this past half a month. He hasn't gotten enough rest, so he'll be quite grumpy. Remember, don't upset him later." George frowned. "Grandma, are you trying to say that Daddy's temper has gotten worse?"
