Chapter 446

Alden stood at the door and looked at the decoration in the room. Suddenly, his heart was filled with
warmth.

The room was decorated just like the room in his house. The bedsheet was in the same color, the
curtains were exactly the same, and even the color of the carpet was identical. However, there were
also many things that his house did not have. He should be able to fall asleep in this room.

It showed that the Winters family members had really put in the effort.

Therefore, Duke actually cared about Mel and him, right?

Alden raised his head and seriously said, “Georgie, thank you.”

George smiled. “I’m your eldest brother, so you don’t have to thank me. Come on, let’s go and put Mel
to sleep first.”

The four children told stories in Melody’s room, and the atmosphere was harmonious as well as
serene.

Meanwhile, the master bedroom had become completely silent.

Adina had drunk some wine at dinner, so she was not entirely clear-headed throughout the whole
night.

She lay in bed and felt sleepy as she closed her eyes.

She had thought that she would not be able to fall asleep on the unfamiliar bed, and she would just
toss around the whole night, but she quickly drifted off.



When the clattering sounds of water rang out, she suddenly woke up with a start.

She immediately sat up straight. Seeing the unfamiliar decoration in the room, she remembered where
she was.

The chandelier in the room was not lit. Only a yellow night light was on. The light was dim, and she
could barely see the man who was showering in the bathroom.

Adina supported her head with her hand and suddenly felt a little thirsty.

Just as she pulled the blanket away and got off the bed, the sounds of water in the bathroom stopped.

Duke just wrapped a towel around his waist. When he pushed open the bathroom door and came out,
he saw that the woman had woken up and was standing by the bed.

He immediately turned around and went back into the bathroom. He grabbed a bathrobe and put it on
before he softly said, “Did I wake you up?”

Adina shook her head. “No. I’m thirsty, and I want to drink some water. Is there any water in here?”

Duke walked to the cabinet that was near the balcony and took out a bottle of mineral water. He passed
it to her after he turned the lid open.

Adina raised her head and drank a lot of water. Finally, she felt a little more comfortable.

She took a look at the time. It was only 11.00 pm.

She would usually be working at this time, but today, she was already sleeping:

She sat on the bed, pursed her lips, and asked, “Mr. Winters, should we talk?”



Duke sat on the couch that was far away. He nodded and asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

“Let’s talk about the kids.” Adina stared at him. Under the dim light, the contour of the man’s features
appeared much gentler. She just said whatever came to mind, “I think we should talk about the kids’
education. Now that I’m their mother, don’t I also have the right to voice my opinion on George and
Harold’s education?”

Duke nodded. “Of course. You can raise as many suggestions as you want.” “The four-year-old kids
should be studying, whether in preschool or an academy for gifted children. George should be
receiving systematic education , not going to the company every day.” Adina swept her hair back. “As
for Hal, he should be learning with children of the same age, not be grounded at home alone and
forced to study boring stuff.”

While she spoke, she subconsciously lifted her leg.

She had forgotten that she was wearing Duke’s white shirt.

When she raised her leg, her fair thigh became more exposed. Under the shadowy light, it evoked all
kinds of wild imagination.

Duke felt annoyed as he got up. “I’m sorry. I have to go and take a shower.”
