Chapter 947

Besides, this man had a mistress and beat his wife. A jerk like that was undoubtedly despicable!
Therefore, the driver started the engine, and the car immediately disappeared into the distance.

Sean could not breathe deeply, and he nearly suffocated. After lying on the ground for more tlian ten
minutes, a cleaner finally found him by the roads and sent him to the hospital.

The night sky grew darker, and Duke held Adina‘s cold hand as they walked on the winding mountain
road.

Adina only spoke after a long time.

“Duke, I realize that I‘m losing control over my emotions. I should go and see a doctor tomorrow.”

She had actually seen many doctors and eaten plenty of medication, but nothing alleviated her
symptoms at all.

“Addy, you‘re a sympathetic girl. Whenever you see a situation like that, you naturally can‘t control your
emotions. I don‘t think you were wrong.” she heard Duke whisper softly.

“If the same thing happens again, I still hope that you‘ll step in.” Adina was stunned for a second. “Do
you think I lose control over my emotions and have a tendency for violence? Aren‘t you afraid that I‘ll
punch you one day?”

Right after she spoke, she chuckled in resignation. When she was manipulated by the biochip, she
would always bite him. There were still tooth marks on the back of his hand, his shoulder, and his
chest.

This man was not afraid of being injured by her.



“Addy, no matter what you become, you‘ll still be the person I love. No matter what happens to you, I’ll
always be with you, just like...” Duke‘s voice grew more tender.

“Just like a month ago, when you brought the kids abroad to look for me. You just had a tiny hope, yet
you were able to find me from a sea of people. Now that I can hold you and have you for real, why
would I leave you?”

Adina‘s anxious heart finally settled.

After they went home, Duke held Adina in his arms, and they enjoyed the night once more. It was a
quiet night, but the news on the Internet started to brew again. It had been less than three hours since
Zhenny‘s clarification during the day, and Adina‘s name was in the headlines again.

Sean‘s ward was surrounded by countless reporters. He did not allow the security guards to chase
them away. Instead, he found a comfortable sitting position as the reporters interviewed him.

“Mr. Gardner, are you telling the truth?”

“Haha! There are surveillance cameras on the road. If you look into this, you‘ll find out whether I‘m lying
or not.”

Sean covered his chest and angrily said, “Adina Daugherty really has a tendency for violence. She
kicked me and broke two of my ribs. Every word of mine is real and supported by the injury assessment
report!”

“May I ask why Ms. Daugherty hit you?” Sean pulled a face.

“I‘m not going to mention the exact reason. Anyway, it‘s true that she hit me, and I‘m really injured!
Didn‘t Mdm. Jones, the former CEO of Jones Corporation say the same thing this morning? Adina likely
has some sort of violent personality disorder. She even dares to hit her own aunt, more so a passerby



like me! Gardner Corporation isn‘t a big company, so we‘re too afraid to stand up to Winters
Corporation. My interview will definitely be removed tomorrow. If I suddenly show up and apologize
tomorrow, the Winters family must have threatened me.”

Sean’s interview spread to every corner of the country through the Internet. Most of the younger crowd
would stay up till 2:00 am. Tonight, this news and numerous hot topics related to Adina trended
repeatedly. Due to Adina‘s emotional agitation, Duke would turn off their phones when they went to
sleep. Nothing was more important than Addy‘s health. Therefore, Duke only discovered that the
incident last night had ended up on the news the next morning.

He checked on Adina who was still sleeping before he gently walked to the study. There, he saw Alden
sitting in front of his desk while speedily tapping across the keyboard.
