The call had just ended before Adina called. Her name flashed continuously on the phone screen.
Dewâs head buzzed.
Was Adina calling because she wanted to tell George the truth?
If George learned everything that happened back then, her fate would be sealed âIâll say this again-give me the phone!â
Georgeâs tone became icy cold.
Dew hung up the call and then turned the phone off.
She raised her head, and her eyes shone with a desperate and shrewd light In the Winters family mansion, Adina called a person twice. Suddenly, a mechanically cold female voice was heard from the phone, indicating that the other partyâs phone had been turned off.
âIs George still not answering the phone?â Harold tilted his head and asked with slight concern.
âTheoretically. Young Master George wouldnât reject any calls.â Mr. Brown scratched his chin and said, âYoung Master Georgeâs cell phone is always on. How could it die now? Regardless, he should be back soon. Just wait for a little while more.â
Adina felt uneasy, but she could not put her finger on the reason.
This uneasy feeling made her lose her mood to cook dinner.
She pursed her lips and said, âMr. Brown, do you have Georgieâs assistant or secretaryâs phone number? Call them and ask about George.â
Mr. Brown nodded and immediately dialed Liamâs phone number.
âMs. Daugherty personally picked Young Master George up and left the company, but I have no idea where exactly they went.â
âWhich Ms. Daugherty?â
âMs. Dew Daugherty. She seemed a bit strange today. She was really bossy. Something appears to have happenedâ¦â
Adinaâs brows furrowed as she listened to the voice on the other side of the phone.
Did George get taken away by Dew?
Where was he taken? For what purpose was he taken away?
Why did she feel her heart becoming increasingly uneasy?
Adina walked around the living room and finally could not help but dial Dukeâs number.
The phone rang several times before being answered, and the manâs cold and low voice came from the other end. âGive me another ten minutes, and Iâll be back.â
Adina clenched her fists and said, âDid you contact George?â
As soon as she finished saying that, she heard the voice of another man on the other end of the phone that was not Dukeâs.
âDuke, we can take our time discussing these issuesâ¦â
Although the voice was a bit far away and could not be heard very clearly, Adina was familiar with this voice. It was Aaronâs voice.
Why were Duke and Aaron together?
Immediately after that, she heard Ruby speaking again, âDew is sincere to you, and she also pours out her heart to the two childrenâ¦â
Adina was stunned again. She thought this man had an important task he needed to complete, which was why he did not go to the preschool to pick up Melody. However, how did he end up going to look for Aaron and Ruby?
Moreover, it seemed to be about Dew!
She did not have time to think about it and said lightly, âContact George when you have time and ask him where he is.â
After saying that, she hung up.
