My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 992

Chapter 992 She did not want to say that Ruth was brainless, but the man was clearly aiming at her.

If Ruth replaced her, it would make the man angry. But that was just her guess.

She could also use Ruth to observe the man‘s attitude.

Besides , she needed to learn how every member of the Willis family felt about this. She wanted to know if they were worth it.

“Sure.” Adeena nodded. “In that case, I‘ll take you to see Mr. Winters tomorrow, okay?”

“We‘ll talk about this after we get home!” Kendry, who had been driving, indifferently interrupted their conversation, and he subconsciously sped up.

They soon arrived at the Willis family‘s mansion.

As soon as they went in, Hudson stepped forward. “Uncle Kendry, how was it? Did you meet Mr. Winters?”

Kendry nodded and walked in with an intense look.

Mdm. Willis was sitting in the armchair. She quickly got up and walked over as well. “Kendry, what did they say?”

“Mr. Winters said that he‘ll spare the Willis family if we arrange for someone to be his secretary,” Ruth

immediately answered. “I already said yes.”

“What?” Jada was stunned. “I don‘t understand.”

Kendry glared at his daughter before he explained in a deep voice, “Mr. Winters asked Ruth and I to go out, but he requested for Deena to stay and talk with him. She only came out after an hour and passed his message to us. According to Mr. Winters, he‘ll spare the Willis family if Deena becomes his secretary.”

Everyone in the mansion was taken aback.

Mdm. Winters stared at Adeena‘s gorgeous face and closed her eyes. “What a sinful debt!”

“I opposed taking in a foster daughter with an unclear background in the past, but you insisted on taking her in!” Hailey suddenly became enraged. “When has it ever been easy to deal with such a gorgeous woman? If we hadn‘t adopted her, would Mr. Winters have targeted the Willis family? Mr. Willis must have set this trap up to get to her.”

Adeena pursed her lips in silence. It looked like the members of the Willis family were not fools. At least half of them already realized what was going on. “Aunt Hailey, why don‘t I understand what you‘re saying?” Ruth looked puzzled. “Couldn‘t Deena have seduced Mr. Winters with her good looks? Why would Mr.

Winters purposely set this up?”

The news described Mr. Winters as the man whom all women in Sea City wanted to marry the most. Even though he was divorced with children, that did not abate the women‘s thoughts.

Why would this man set a trap for a woman?

“Your brain really isn‘t functioning at all,” Brady said sarcastically. “Mr. Winters is an extremely busy bigwig. He must want something since he purposely traveled to Cloud City and dealt with the Willis family. Today, he‘s told us what he wants.”

“Let‘s not rush to conclusions first.” Jada‘s face turned slightly pale. “Deena has never gone to Sea City before, and it‘s impossible for Mr. Winters to have seen her. This hasn‘t been established.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

She was the one who had insisted on taking Deena in. If the Willis family had truly been targeted because of Deena, then she…

“Isn‘t Adeena‘s company going to participate in the Internet exhibition in Sea City?” the angry Hailey said with displeasure. “Perhaps Mr. Winters saw the information that she submitted, including her face. That‘s how he became fascinated with her. Now, he‘s here in Cloud City to deal with the Willis family.”

Brady frowned. “But with his family background, he could just propose to her, right?”

When he said that, everyone in the house became silent

again.

Yes, millions of people looked up to a man like Duke. It would be incredibly easy for him if he set his sights on a woman. Why would he cause so much trouble? “Anyway, Mr. Winters wants Deena to be his secretary now.” Hailey glanced over coldly. “Deena, are you willing to do this for the Willis family?”

Adeena pursed her lips without answering.

An indifferent light shone in her clear, dark eyes as she slowly glanced at the people before her.
