Chapter 806
“Jump!”
The robotic voice had been heard over and over again. Adina wanted to resist, but she was unable to
fight back. 1
Besides, her right cheek was very painful. She felt as if she was being slapped strongly. On top of the
slaps, she felt as if her face was being sliced open.
If jumping down could relieve her pain, she was willing to jump
Adina held the cold fence and leaped over with a flip.
“Addy!”
Duke was totally scared out of his wits.
He swung his hand and grabbed Adina who almost fell down into his arms.

He lifted her, walked into the room, and locked the window of the balcony.
When the room became warm again, Adina suddenly
shivered.
She slowly looked at Duke. “What happened... just now?”
Duke stared at her and softly said, “You suddenly rushed
to the balcony and nearly jumped down just now.” “I... jumped?” Adina was utterly dumbfounded. She
tried to recall what happened just now, but her mind was completely blank.
She did not remember what she had done.
The stinging pain came from her right cheek again.
She covered her face and said, “It‘s painful. Duke, my face is in pain. It‘s been painful recently. Even
medications can‘t help.”
“I‘ll take you to the hospital tomorrow. You‘ll be fine.” Duke held her in his arms and softly coaxed her.
“Addy, you don‘t have to be stressed. No matter what you turn into, I won‘t leave you. Even if there‘s a
scar on your face, you‘ll still be the most beautiful woman in Sea City. Nobody is more beautiful than
you.”
Adina grabbed his collars. “Do you think I jumped off the balcony because I was too concerned about
my face and I could not think straight?”
Duke silently pursed his lips. This was the most serious incident that happened to Addy, and he was
unable to understand why she would act like this.
Addy had been looking very relaxed these days. When she
looked as if it did not bother her, he was convinced that she was really not concerned about it.
But would any woman in the world not care about their appearance? No matter how strong, calm, and
wise Addy was, she was just an ordinary woman. He just did not expect this incident to have placed so

the balcony.
The second floor was not high, but her legs would definitely be broken if she jumped off.
Duke felt fear grip his entire being as he held Adina tightly. “Sorry, Addy, I neglected you.” “Don‘t
overthink.” Adina held his face up. “I also did not know what happened to myself just now. I blanked
out. Perhaps I wanted to go out for some cold wind, and you misunderstood. Duke, don‘t worry. I‘m
perfectly fine.
The two scars on my face are nothing to me.
“You can think from another perspective. You also have a scar on your face. Did you ever mind it?”
Duke shook his head. “I‘m a man, so it doesn‘t matter to me.”
“I‘m a married woman, and I also have four kids. I also don‘t mind my appearance that much.” Adina
explained
weakly, “Don‘t worry, I‘ll never do such a dangerous thing again. I‘m serious!”
Only after she reiterated again and again did Duke finally believe her.
But that scene kept coming up in his mind, and he still could not feel at ease.
The next morning, Duke took Adina to the hospital and examined the injury.
