NovelEnglishChapter 570
Adina
had been up since 4.00 am. She was so exhausted that her whole body was aching. Duke kissed her o
n the forehead with affection. “I’ll bring you home so that you can have a good rest after the toast.”
“It doesn‘t matter
how tiring it is. It‘s just one day.” Adina leaned in his arms and softly said, “You‘ve just been discharged
from the hospital. You should drink less when you make your toast later.”
“I‘ll do as you say, Dear.” Duke kissed her cheek again before he turned around and went to the resting
lounge next door to get changed.
Adina‘s gown was complex, and two
stylists had to help her before she could successfully wear it. They then immediately put on new makeu
p on her face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis gown was red. It looked festive with its beautiful lace and gold embroidery.
Adina looked in the mirror and fixed her makeup before she walked out of her dressing room
and knocked on the next room‘s door.
The makeup artist there respectfully said, “Mr. Winters finished changing half an hour ago. He should b
e greeting the guests in the lobby now.”
Adina nodded and thanked her before she lifted the hem of her
gown and walked toward the lobby.
She stood at the entrance
as she glanced at the whole banquet hall, but she did not see the stunning man.
That man was like a light that shone brightly wherever he went, so much so that it was impossible to lo
ok at him directly.
Theoretically, she should be able to spot him immediately.
“Mommy, you‘re so beautiful!”
“Wow, Mommy! What‘s on your head? Why is it so beautiful ?”
The children showed up from nowhere and surrounded her.
Adina smiled and said, “It‘s a golden hair clip. It‘s an antique piece
of jewelry, and it matches my gown. Mel, if you like it, I‘ll give it to you once the wedding‘s over.”
Melody smiled happily. “Thank you, Mommy.” “Oh yeah, where‘s your dad?” Adina smiled and asked. T
he guests were already seated. According to the schedule, the
bride and the groom should be entering the hall and making the toast.
George blinked and said, “I saw Dad walking outside the hotel just now. I don‘t know what he‘s up to.”
Alden nodded. “Dad seemed worried.”
Adina frowned.
For some reason, her heart felt a little uneasy, and her right eyelid suddenly throbbed.
“Addy, you finally got changed.” Mrs. Winters smiled and walked over out of the blue. “Duke had to leav
e because of something urgent. I‘ll accompany you as you toast to the guests.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAdina pursed her lips. “What is he busy with?”
What else would be more important than his wedding on his wedding day?
“The Winters Cemetery is on fire.” Mrs. Winters lowered her voice and said, “It‘s not a big
deal, but only the bloodline of the Winters family‘s first son is allowed to enter the cemetery, so Duke ha
s to go there personally. We can‘t let the kids go, can we?”
That indeed made some sense.
Yet, the unknown ominous feeling in Adina‘s heart grew stronger.
She took out her phone and said, “Mom, I’ll give Duke a call first.”
There was a glint in Mrs. Winters‘ eyes, but she smiled
and said, “Okay, be quick. The guests are waiting for us.”
Adina walked to the side and dialed Duke‘s number.
After two rings, someone picked up the phone, and she heard the man‘s familiar voice from
the other end of the line.
