Chapter 695

A new day arrived as the sun rose from the horizon.

After Adina washed up, she darkened her skin on purpose. She went downstairs once she put on some
light makeup.

Flint was playing with Melody and Harold downstairs, while George and Alden were reading. The scene
was warm and harmonious.

“Good morning, Mommy,” the children raised their heads and greeted her uniformly.

Adina smiled gently. “All of you have to stay home and be good today. I’ll come back at noon to make
you lunch.”

“Mommy, I‘ll take good care of my brothers and sister,” George said obediently.

“I‘ll be a good boy,” Harold assured her. “I‘ll play with Mel too. Don‘t worry, Mommy.”

Melody blinked. “Be safe, Mommy.”

Adina kissed each of them on their cheeks. “Wait at home obediently. I‘ll return without incident.”

When she went outside, the gentle smile that she faked instantly disappeared.

Flint sighed. “Addy, where do you plan to look for Duke today? I‘ll go with you.”

Adina pursed her lips. “I want to discuss a collaboration with Terry North.”

She had uncovered a lot of information about him last night.



Perhaps Astroysians were born to love peace. Even though he lived in a sinful place, he had yet to
become a complete demon.

He would implement new policies, maintain order, and develop new ways to earn money.

Someone like him might not be that dangerous.

“Are you mad?” Flint stared at her in disbelief. “Do you know who Terry North is? He fought Auguste
alone and killed the former leader. Only then did he become the leader. On the first day he took office,
he chased other organizations out of Hestia Border. You can tell how terrifying he is just from that. How
can you go and mess with him?”

“I want to collaborate with him because he‘s capable,” Adina spoke firmly. “He can ask anything of me.
As long as I can find Duke, I don‘t care about the price.”

Flint held back everything he wanted to say.

He pursed his lips for a long time before he said, “My father wants to collaborate with Terry North as
well, so we found some information about him. This man is on high alert. He doesn‘t even trust the
closest guards by his side. It‘s not easy to approach him, so we have to come up with a perfect
strategy.”

Adina carried her handbag and indifferently said, “This is a unique tea from Cairnstan. Astroysians
usually love it, so I think Terry North might not turn me down. Since he saved me yesterday, he might
not turn me away if I thank him with a present today, right?”

Flint shook his head.

He did not know whether Terry North would turn her down or not.



However, Addy looked too extraordinary and gorgeous, and she was a rare Astroysian. He was afraid
that there would be trouble.

“Why don‘t I go there first?” Flint made a compromise as he said, “I‘ll go and explore the area first. If
Terry North is willing to talk about the collaboration, you can go there tomorrow.”

“Flint, I can‘t wait.” Adina looked at him, and her voice was filled with sadness. “If I wait for one more
day, he‘ll be in danger for one more day. I really can‘t wait.”

Her expression and gaze appeared calm. Only her voice revealed her worries and anxiety.

It was Flint‘s first time seeing her anxious and flustered.

This woman would always be confident and organized whenever she encountered anything, but she
did not know what to do now.

Even though she knew that there was danger ahead, she was still willing to step forward. She might
even sacrifice her life if that could help her find Duke.
