Chapter 102 Trent drank a glass of wine, and seemed regretful.
Eilam stared at him. âWhatever it is you want to say, you better think twice first.â
As he spoke, he intentionally cast a glance at Duke.
âMaybe you donât know the man who was with Adina just now, but Iâve heard his name a lot.â Trent shook his head and said, âHeâs from Anbarica. Heâs a typical rich boy from a rich family. People call him the Prince of Love. The women around him never show up repeatedly. Compared with this Mr. Morton, I wouldnât dare call myself a playboy.â
Eilam was in disbelief. âThereâs actually someone more disloyal than you?â âAdinaâs such a tough woman, but she still fell for Flint.â Trent sighed and said, âItâs such a shame for this gorgeous beauty to be with Flint. The barâs boss said that a rich man was blackmailed. Looks like it was Flint. You can imagine how Mr. Morton ended up like that.â Duke glared at him. âWho says sheâs fallen for Flint?â âIsnât it obvious?â Trent said. âThe two of them hugged each other and went out together. They have to be a couple.â Dukeâs expression turned cold. âSheâll never fall for someone like that.â He came to drink tonight because he wanted to relieve his gloominess. But when he saw the scenario earlier, his mood became worse. He raised his head and finished another glass of wine. Trent and Eilam looked at each other at a loss. Was he trying to drown his sorrows with alcohol? âHey, Duke, donât tell me youâve fallen for Adina,â Trent lowered his voice and said. Having fun with women was very normal in their circle.
They could be interested in a woman today, but it could change tomorrow. For instance, while Trent was quite interested in Adina, if Adina continued to ignore him, he could immediately switch targets.
But for Duke⦠Trent had known Duke for a long time, but it was his first time seeing the dude being interested in a woman. âDuke, if you really like Adina, Iâll help you pursue her.â Trent patted his own chest. âIâm here for you. That Flint Morton wonât stand a chance.â âIf you want to be a stepfather, feel free to pursue her,â he replied coldly.
Trent clicked his tongue.
This dude was just reluctant to admit it!
He clinked glasses with Eilam before he purposely spoke with excitement. âEilam, do you think Adina has a daughter or a son? If she has a daughter, that will be great. If I successfully pursue her, Iâll have a considerate daddyâs girl, right? Just for that reason alone, Iâll have to work hard to beat Flint.â
The more he spoke, the more sullen Dukeâs expression got.
Adina put in a lot of effort to finally bring Flint home. She threw him on the couch and did not want to bother about him anymore. However, Flint instantly grabbed her wrist and pitifully begged her, âAddy, I feel so uncomfortable. Please get me some warm water⦠Get me some hot water to wash up. Iâm so dizzyâ¦â Adina really wanted to throw him out. When she recalled that this brat did not know anyone else in Sea City, she just accepted her fate and got him some water.
Alden walked downstairs and instantly saw the hickeys on Flintâs neck. He also smelled the strong, pungent scent of some perfume. He narrowed his eyes and asked, âUncle Flint, what happened?â
âAlden, Iâm so pitiful!â Flint cried and complained, âI got drunk, and some people set me up and blackmailed me. I was even beaten upâ¦â
Even though Alden was brilliant and precocious, there were still some things that he did not know. He frowned and asked, âWhatâs âblackmail?â âShut up, Flint Morton. Donât teach my son the wrong things!â
Adina walked over and threw a hot towel on Flintâs face. Alden took one step back and typed the term âblackmailâ on his smart watch.
He had a cold and profound look after that.
