MADAM WINTERS’S FIGHT FOR HER CHILDREN CHAPTER 1046

The sunlight from the setting sun shone in, and the room glowed with orange light.

Adeena stood by the window as she looked out the window and indifferently asked, “What would you like to say to me, Mr. Winters?” “I‘ve seen the news online, but please believe me. It‘s definitely not what the Internet says.”

Duke‘s voice was husky, and he spoke seriously.

Adeena did not expect him to go straight to the point. She initially thought that he would be avoiding it.

She turned around with an indifferent smile and said, “I was curious, so I searched for Mdm. Winters‘ photos. Then, I realized that we look really alike. Mr. Winters, how do you explain that?”

Right after she spoke, Duke became silent.

He had encountered dozens of projects that cost tens of billions of dollars, yet he could handle them without any difficulty and a single frown.

But he did not know how to explain the current situation.

Could he say that she and Mdm. Winters were actually the same person?

If he told her that, would it trigger her old memories?

If she ended up in the same condition as she did four years ago, what should he do?

He would rather she remember nothing than suffer through the pain again.

“I‘m sorry, Mr. Winters. I shouldn‘t ask such personal questions.” Adeena‘s smile became brighter. “I just didn‘t expect to be favored by you only because my face resembles that of Mdm. Winters. I wonder if I‘m lucky or unfortunate.”

Duke looked at her affectionately.

His black eyes were full of emotions that she did not understand.

She turned around. “Mr. Winters, please leave. I‘d like to rest now.”

“Addy, no matter what you‘re thinking, I just want to tell you...” Duke took a breath before he softly said, “I love you. I love you more than you can imagine.”

He dared not hear Adeena‘s reply.

He turned around and left the room hastily.

Daniel was still in the living room, staring at the door that was tightly shut.

Meanwhile, Ruth lowered her head and clenched her fists.

She had never felt ugly, but ever since Adeena showed up, she had seemingly become an ugly woman.

It happened in Cloud City and later in Sea City.

She had never been more aware than now that she was not as good as Adeena. Whether it was in terms of inner beauty or outer appearance, she was much worse than Adeena.

“Dan, you really love Adeena, don’t you?” Ruth spoke in a resigned tone.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Daniel frowned.

“Don’t lie to me. Your gaze is too obvious!” Ruth chuckled in defeat. “Those presents were initially for Adeena, right? It just so happened that my family name is Willis and I’m from Cloud City too, so you mistook me for her, didn’t you?”

Daniel looked at her.

He saw disappointment, sadness, and reluctance in the girl’s eyes.

He pursed his lips and said, “I’m sorry. My attitude made you misunderstand. I can make it up to you—”

“I don’t want your compensation !” Ruth’s tears fell. “I just want you to tell me why Adeena’s better than me. Why do you like her?”

Daniel frowned again. “It’s not what you think. She and I

aren‘t in that kind of relationship. You...”

Halfway through his sentence, the room door was opened, and Duke came out. Material © of .

Daniel immediately rushed toward Adeena‘s room.

It had been four years since he last saw his sister.

He wanted to ask her if she had lived well over the past four years. Duke instantly grabbed his arm. “There‘ll be plenty of chances to talk. Come back with me first.”

He dragged Daniel out by force, and the living room door was slammed shut. Brady had been totally dumbfounded from the beginning. “What‘s happening?”

Ruth was stunned too.

Duke and Daniel did not look like love rivals to her...

Although both of them were there for Adeena, there was no competition between them.
