Duke. Earl stopped laughing.
“Hmph!” Earl put out the cigarette he was smoking against the tabletop. A burnt trace was left behind.
“Spill it out. Why are you looking for me?”
Duke twiddled his fingers. “I have burned your underground biological company down. What do you
have to say about it?”
“Let it be. Do you seriously think I care about it?” Earl said lazily. “Is there anything else? If not, I have
other business to deal with.”
There were several naked women on his bed.
“Regarding the bio-intelligent chips you previously sold, the buyers came to look for you,” Duke said
calmly. “Something is wrong with the program. People who have been implanted with the chip behaved
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtabnormally. They need the destruction program. You should handle this first.”
“That’s very funny. Why should I work for you, huh?” Earl propped his hands on the table. His face was
enlarged on the screen. “You’re impersonating me and destroying my property, so you should bear the
full consequences! Besides, you’re the leader of the Black Party. You can’t possibly be afraid of those
useless members of the Rebellious Party, can you?”
Duke frowned as he stared at Earl’s face on the screen.
He wondered if Earl had no idea of Adina being implanted with the chip. Otherwise, he would not react
this way.
‘Could Isabelle truly be the main culprit?’
The corners of Duke’s mouth twitched. “I hoped to give you a chance. Unfortunately, you fail to grasp
it.”
He hung up the call.
Earl’s face darkened. He smashed the notebook onto the floor. The screen cracked and shattered into
pieces. The pieces reflected his furious face.
Duke left the study room and went to the master bedroom. He sat at the edge of the bed.
He stroked Adina’s scarred face. His touch was gentle and filled with love.
If he hadn’t pushed Isabelle and Elder Maurice to the edge, she would not have kidnapped Adina
This was all his fault.
He shouldn’t have shot Isabelle in rage that day. Things wouldn’t have come to a dead end if he had
just thought it through. Duke sat by the bed for some time before taking his notebook to the study room
and continuing his work.
After he finished with Winters Corporation’s work, he began rifling through the documents
Serene sent him. LaStar Technology Corporation had expanded. Each project was worth millions of
dollars, and the projects were as complicated as Winters Corporation’s.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDuke talked to Serene while organizing the project contents.
Just then, he heard footsteps outside. When he turned around, she saw that Adina had woken up and
walked to him. She looked at the notebook screen
Duke’s heart sank. He said, “Ms. Reyes, we’ll continue later.”
Right after he hung up, Adina smiled. “Duke, didn’t I say you shouldn’t interfere with my job?”
Duke’s heart was heavy.
Adina remembered the incident back in hospital. When he had called Serene that time, Adina had
overheard their conversation and she had gotten very angry. She had told him not to interfere with her
job and her company. “Addy, please don’t get me wrong…,” Duke spoke softly. “I’m just handling the
work for Winters Corporation. You saw it wrong”
“Do you think I’m an idiot?” Adina said indifferently. “Duke Winters, even if we’re married, you can’t
control my life! I hate people like you! Don’t touch me!”
Duke had gotten up and tried to hold her hand. Adina pushed him away, turned around and fled.
