My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 899

Chapter 899 “Get out!

“Get out now!”

Adina bit her tongue as she struggled to say those words out loud. Duke hugged her tightly. “Addy, it‘s okay. I‘m here to protect you. Nothing will happen. Don‘t force yourself…”

‘Addy is being controlled by the biochip. Most of the time, it‘s asking her to harm the person she loves…

‘I don‘t mind getting hurt a little. I can‘t continue to watch her being in pain…!

“Go away! I told you to go away!” Adina looked at him through misty eyes. “Duke, go! If you don‘t, I won‘t be able to control myself anymore…”

Earl‘s voice in her mind became louder and clearer.

“Addy, take out that dagger under your pillow. Aim it at Duke‘s neck and stab!”

“No!”

Adina shook her head painfully.

Duke was still in front of her, holding her shoulders and comforting her softly.

The voice in her head and the voice by her ears came together and spoke in unison. It was suffocating.

The thread of rationality in her head snapped.

Adina broke free from the ropes that she had used to tie her hands. She got up, took the dagger under the pillow, aimed it at Duke‘s neck, and rushed towards him.

Just as the dagger was a few inches away from Duke‘s neck, her wrist turned, and the blade cut into the back of her hand. It bled profusely. The voice in her head finally dissipated.

“Addy!” Duke held her injured hand and carried her downstairs. He swiftly got the first–aid kit. Addy nestled on the couch and let Duke disinfect, apply medicine, and bandage her wound. After he was done, he asked, “What was the order given to you?”

Adina smiled. “I told you to get away from me, but you kept sticking around with me…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed Duke‘s expression darkening.

She pursed her lips and did not talk anymore.

Typically, if I violated the original program of the system, I shouldn‘t have remembered everything that just happened. ‘But I was able to clearly describe the situation just now. It is to say, the command just now

was not from the original program. It was a verbal command.‘ “Earl Winters!”

Duke frowned. “I‘ve sent people to look for him. I‘ll find him sooner or later.” Adina held his face. “Duke, let‘s live separately.” “Why?” He held her wounded hand. “Addy, I know what you‘re worried about, but don‘t be afraid. I‘ll protect you.”

“I know you will, but I‘m scared that I‘ll hurt you.” Adina smiled bitterly. “Him being able to give me commands is equivalent to me being his weapon. Duke, do you understand what that means? I‘m afraid that I‘ll become his weapon to hurt you.”

“Let‘s live separately. It‘ll be better this way.”

Adina‘s expression turned cold and indifferent.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Duke hugged her tighter. “Addy, he won‘t stay hidden for long. Don‘t be afraid…”

She nestled in his arms, still having an indifferent gaze in her eyes.

Today‘s encounter made her fully realize how terrifying the biochip’s control was. ‘I might be able to fight back this time, but I can‘t guarantee that I can do the same next time around… 2

‘Earl is too scary. He won‘t give up until he tortures Duke to death.‘

Chapter 899 Suddenly, Adina‘s phone vibrated. She took a glance at her phone screen. It was a video call from her four children. Duke took the call and the four children‘s faces popped up. “Mommy, our winter break starts today!” George spoke first. “Mommy, the teacher says we‘ll have a one–month holiday. Can we go to your place to play?” Harold blinked as he asked.

Adina smiled bitterly. ‘Earl, the devil, is back in Sea City. I don‘t dare to meet my children. If they bumped into him, he might regard them as the thorn in his flesh. “I‘ll be busy for the next few days. I might not be able to spend time with you.” Adina smiled gently and said, “There are still ten more days until New Year. Daddy and I will go back on New Year‘s Eve and celebrate with you all, okay?” Melody tilted her head and said, “I‘ve never celebrated New Year.” Alden said, “We celebrated New Year when we were abroad. Mel, you were too young to remember it.”

“Wow, we‘re going to celebrate New Year with Mommy this year.” Harold clapped his hand happily. “Mommy, what kind of New Year‘s gift do you want? I‘ll prepare to get you one in advance.”

Adina chuckled. “As long as you all are healthy and happy, I‘ll be happy too.” “That won‘t do. Mommy, you must tell me what you want.” Harold shook his head. “Do you want a scarf, a hat, or a coat?” Adina felt warmth spreading throughout her heart. She knew that she should not continue chatting with her children. Otherwise, it would trigger a command again. She raised her hand to touch her hair. When she was about to speak, Alden narrowed his eyes,“ Mommy, what happened to the back of your hand?”

There was blood oozing out of the wound that had just been bandaged. The white gauze was stained with blood, and it looked a bit terrifying.

Adina instinctively hid her hands in her sleeves and smiled indifferently, “I accidentally hurt the back of my hand today when I was cutting vegetables. I‘ve already treated it, it‘s fine.”

Alden nodded. He pursed his lips and shifted his gaze at Duke. “Daddy, the program you asked me to crack last time is very interesting.” Duke picked up his phone and frowned. “Tell me about it.” “I can‘t crack the original program for the time being, but I can modify the program commands through some hacking.” Alden took his time and said, “Daddy, can you let me meet that subordinate? I want to give it a try.”

Duke was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, “I‘ll have someone pick you up later.” After they hung, Duke looked at Adina. “Addy, let Al try. Perhaps he can modify the original programming in your body.” Adina lowered her head and looked at the back of her hand. “If I do, he‘ll find out about this matter.” “Al is smart. I‘m sure along with George, they have already noticed something off.” Duke said in a low voice. “Why do you think the children didn‘t make a fuss about wanting to come over for the past ten days?“.

Adina pursed her lips. ‘Oh, Al. He‘s smart and sensible too. ‘I‘ve moved out of the Winters family and was separated from my children for so many days. It was unusual for me to do so.

But Al has been behaving very well and didn‘t ask us anything. George also persuaded Hal and Mel to stay at home obediently. ‘Al already guessed that something was off, but he neither asked her anything nor I said anything about it. “This child must‘ve suffered…‘ Adina nodded. “Alright, I‘ll let Al try.” Alden arrived by evening. His other siblings wanted to come too, but George was able to persuade them to stay. Alden followed the bodyguard to the front door. When he looked up, he saw Adina sitting on the couch in the living room. Her loose–fitting housecoat made her look particularly thin.

It has been thirteen days since they met, his first time being separated from Adina for so long.

“Mommy.” He tried to stay calm, but the moment he spoke, tears welled up in the corner of his eyes.
