My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 871

Chapter 871 The caller was Blake. Duke narrowed his eyes and answered the call.

“Boss, Earl attempted to escape half an hour ago, but we managed to capture him.”

Duke’s eyes turned stormy. “Keep a close watch on him. Do not let him escape!”

“Don’t worry, Boss. I have assigned ten more people to stand guard over the basement. He can’t possibly escape this place even if he has gods helping him now.”

Duke hung up. He frowned. Adina stroked his cheek. “Don’t worry. There must be a way to solve all this.”

Duke patted her back and spoke gently, “Let’s go home first. We need to find an excuse for our children.”

They discussed what to tell their kids when they got home. Soon, they arrived at the Winters family’s mansion. Preschool had ended early. So, the children were already home. They were all in the living room, talking to Mabel.

Adina and Duke entered the mansion, hand-in hand. When the children saw them, they quickly surrounded them.

Harold chirped, “Mommy, aren’t you supposed to rest at home? Why did you go out?” “Daddy, you promised to take good care of Mommy,” said Melody, pouting her lips. “How could you break your promise?’ “Mommy, why did you leave the house in pajamas?” Alden frowned.

George furrowed his eyebrows. “And with a pair of slippers only.”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Duke had found the slippers in the trunk of his car. He had let Adina wear them.”

Adina smiled warmly at her children. “Your daddy took a stroll with me because I was bored. We didn’t go far, so I went out in pajamas and slippers. What’s all the fuss about?”

Mabel frowned from the couch.

Two hours ago, Adina and Duke had fought suddenly inside the master bedroom. Later, Adina had driven out of the mansion and Duke chased after her.

For a moment, Mabel thought Earl had come back. Adina only lost her cool when Earl was around

But when Mabel saw Duke enter the house, she knew that she was just overthinking. Maybe she missed Lari too much.

Mabel smiled sadly and got up to leave ” Mother, please wait a while I have something to tell you,” said Duke calmly.

Mabel was astonished. Duke never called her “mother”. Even Adina always addressed her as Mrs. Winters

Mabel suppressed the emotion in her heart. “Of course. If you have anything to say, I am all

ears.”

“I plan to move out and stay outside for a month with Adina,” Duke said. “Will you be willing to take care of our children during this period of time?”

Mabel was shocked. Her lips quivered. “Duke, if it is because of me, you don’t need to leave. I

can go. You only need to say it.”

“Mother, that is not what we mean,” Adina said. “I am so sorry if it came out like that. I’m in the middle of the Jones Corporation succession contest. An issue occurred in the resort project, so I have to stay somewhere near the site. Duke is worried about me, so he insists on

coming with me.”
