Chapter 485
Four pairs of eyes turned to look at him in sync.
Duke was speechless.
This woman was trying to set him up.
Everyone knew how to sing that song, but he was a man in his twenties. Would it not be hilarious if he sang such a song?
What if his image in her mind plummeted only because he sang this song?
“You don’t know how to sing the song, Duke?” Adina suddenly said.
The way she called his name was too much for him to bear.
Hearing her soft voice made him feel as though all the bones in his body had melted.
It was also the first time Adina had addressed him in such a manner.
Although he was aware of her intentions, he nevertheless gave in without hesitation.

shoulders, knees and toes, knees and toes...”
Even when he sang upbeat children’s songs, his voice was very low and had a calm tone.
Adina stood a meter away and looked at him.
He simply stood there, his tall, slender frame swaying slightly to the music as he sang in a deep voice.
Obviously, he was a little nervous, but he still sang the whole song.
He actually did as she asked.
A cloud of mixed feelings flashed through Adina’s eyes.
The song ended in a flash.
“Wow! You’re excellent at singing, Daddy!” Mel exclaimed as she clapped enthusiastically.
Duke patted her hair and said, “Thank you for the compliment, Mel.”
Then, turning to face Adina, he asked, “How about you? How would you rate my singing?”
“Not bad. Have a glass of champagne.”
Adina handed him a glass of champagne.
Originally, there were only drinks for the children on the table. After that man came, she brought out the
champagne her client had previously gifted her.
The wine tasted great. It was too much for one person to finish, but just right for two people to enjoy.
As they clinked glasses, Duke said, “Thank you.”
“Why are you thanking me?” Adina cocked her head and asked.
“This is the first time I’m seeing George and Harold so happy, and it’s all because of you.” Duke took a
sip of wine and said softly, “
The Winters family only got to experience love because of you. We feel more like a family and more at
home because of your love.”
His jet-black eyes were gleaming unbelievably brightly as he spoke.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAdina’s heart skipped a beat with the way he was staring at her.
“This is my song,” she announced as she hurriedly set down her drink and grabbed the microphone. “I’m going to sing.”
She began singing as the melody of an old love song filled the living room.
Her voice was breathy, and a little husky, which made the song sound more enticing.
Duke sat back on the couch and grabbed his glass of champagne. After taking in her figure and voice, he slowly slipped his hand
into his pocket.
Inside his pocket was the diamond ring he had bought at the mall today.
He liked her. He could even say he loved her. He kissed her, they had four kids together, and tonight he planned to confess and
pop the question to her.
But he was still a little scared.
When he gave it more thought, it was quite funny. He used to venture out on his own to start businesses, took down all of his
powerful enemies by himself, and even traveled great distances to save his father. At the time, he was alone and brave, but
today he was timid.
Even though it was just a few sentences, he was terrified to say it.
With a bitter smile, he downed the wine from his glass and poured another for himself.
