Chapter 346

“Duke, you and Dew go out and welcome the guests,” Mrs. Winters said nonchalantly.

Dew felt happy. She took the chance to walk over and stand beside Duke. She was even bold enough
to hold Duke’s arm. She smiled coquettishly and said, “Duke, let me go to the entrance with you.”

Duke coldly moved his arm out of her grip, and he appeared unhappy.

He did not want to invite Dew to his mother’s birthday party, but his mother had personally invited Dew
instead. Hence, it was not appropriate for him to kick her out.

“I can handle it myself,” he said with a straight face.

He turned around and left.

Would Dew miss such a great opportunity?

Most of the guests today were relatives of the Winters family. She had to let those relatives know that
she would become the mistress of the Winters family.

She lifted the hem of her dress and quickly tried to keep up with Duke.

As soon as the two of them left, the surprised ladies at the side asked, “Mabel, is this Ms. Daugherty
the daughter-in-law you’ve chosen?”

“It hasn’t been finalized,” Mrs. Winters replied indifferently.

She had acknowledged it. In other words, as long as Duke said yes,

Ms. Daugherty would become the mistress of the Winters family.



When the relatives of the Winters family looked at Dew, they felt envious.

“Duke, wait for me!”

Dew struggled to keep up with Duke. His legs were long, and his steps were big. She had to jog so that
she would not be left behind.

Duke suddenly stopped moving.



She sighed in relief before she quickly went forward and stood beside Duke.

As she raised her arm to link it with Duke’s, he took a step back. He stared at her with a sharp gaze. “If
you want to remain in this banquet, stay away from me, or I’ll get Mr. Brown to send you home.”

Dew was completely stunned. “Duke, d-do you really hate me that much?”

“I’ve told you more than once that you better not fantasize about becoming the mistress of the Winters
family,” Duke said in a hostile manner. “You can go back to the banquet hall.”

After he said that, he turned around and continued walking toward the mansion’s entrance.

Dew clenched her fists in dissatisfaction.

She had sacrificed so much. She could not back down easily.

She saw Duke walking out and Mr. Brown respectfully standing next to the main gate. Meanwhile, there
seemed to be two kids standing outside the gate.

Were George and Harold standing outside and welcoming the guests too?



Was the Winters family planning to announce the presence of the young masters?

Dew felt excited. She lifted the hem of her dress and walked over.

Before she reached the entrance, a car suddenly stopped in front of the villa.

She observed as Duke personally opened the car door. Harold rushed over happily, and George, who
was always tense, flashed a smile.

Then, she saw Adina walk out after the car door was opened.
