Chapter 482
Duke pursed his lips. “I bought them for someone.”
Mr. Brown understood it immediately. A disappointed expression quickly appeared on his face. “Sir, why
would you give her lilies? You should give her roses, bright red roses. Even if you don’t have 999 roses,
you should at least give her 99 roses. That is exactly what a man should give a woman! Let me handle
this bouquet of lilies for you right now!
Mr. Brown took the lilies away without waiting for his reply.
Duke was speechless.
He had selected lilies after consulting with the shopkeeper at the florist.
One of the reasons was that his and Adina’s relationship had not yet been confirmed, and the second
was that red roses were an overly direct expression of love. He was worried that he would scare her.
Mr. Brown walked a few steps farther. Then, he turned
around and said, “By the way, sir, the young masters have packed their clothes and gone to Ms.
Daugherty’s place. They said they are not coming home tonight.”

Was this woman avoiding him on purpose?
Come to think of it, it was true that he had been too bold today. He should not have kissed her so
assertively.
However, if he was given another chance, he would still do the same.
He said, “I’m going out now. I will have dinner outside.”
A satisfied smile emerged on Mr. Brown’s face. He reminded him, “Sir, don’t forget to get the roses.”
Duke pulled open the car door and got in.
He sat in the driver’s seat with all sorts of thoughts flashing through his head.
Actually, Mr. Brown was not wrong.
He had already kissed her. It did seem improper to give her lilies.
He did need to give her red roses, but he also had to prepare something else for her.
Duke drove toward the largest mall in Sea City.
Adina’s car had just pulled up in front of the house when she saw George and Harold who arrived at the
same time.
The two boys had been driven over by the bodyguard. George was carrying a suitcase. It looked like
they had
decided to stay with her for a few more days.
Adina grinned as she took over their luggage. She asked tenderly, “Have you told Daddy that you were
coming over?”
“No, but we did tell Grandma and Mr. Brown!” Harold wrapped his arm around Adina’s. “Grandma said
we could stay at Mommy’s place for a few more days!”
Adina’s heart felt warm.
She had thought that Mrs. Winters was imposing and was not easy to get along with, but now she found
her to be rather nice.
She smiled and said, “That’s great. You boys will stay with me for a few more days. Today is your official
sleepover. What do you say? How about a party?” “Yes, yes!” Harold clapped his hands happily.
“Mommy, just tell me if you need me to help you with anything !”

living room. Al, come help me in the kitchen. Hal and Mel, you will decorate the living room. Is this
arrangement okay for
you?”
“Mommy, I will make sure the living room is cleaned up!” “Mommy, I will take good care of Mel!”
Alden followed Adina into the kitchen obediently.
“Al, just peel the beans for me.” Adina handed him the green beans and deftly prepared the ingredients
needed for the party.
First, she made a cake. She began preparing dinner after putting the cake in the oven. The food was
simple because it was a party. Fruit salad, French fries, fried chicken, small, healthy, and nutritious
cookies, and some satiating cornbread were on the menu. Then she served everything on the long table.
The living room was tidied up. The floor was decorated with many cute dolls. Melody even took out the
brightly colored light bulbs and hung them on the wall. The living room looked very lively.
Adina clapped her hands. “And so I declare, let the party begin!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the children clapped their hands and cheered.
Alden’s brows furrowed suddenly. “Mommy, I think we got a visitor.”
