Chapter 388: Chapter 388

Luckily, he asked, or else George would have prepared a gift for their mom without him knowing. What kind of gift should he prepare for his mom?

“Duke, you really risked everything this time!” Trent sat on the couch in the hospital and said in a casual manner. “Being a hero to rescue the beauty always works. No matter how cold-hearted Adina is, she’ll definitely be touched by your actions, and she’ll give herself to you!”

Duke was bedridden. His expression was indifferent, and nobody knew what he was thinking.

Eilarn tugged on Trent slightly before he motioned at him and said, “Alright, stop talking bullshit. Let’s just leave. Don’t disturb Duke’s rest.”

Trent was not willing to leave. He came from a rich family and always wandered around. He either courted women or raced cars, so he had a lot of free time. His daily life was the same. Whenever he found something that interested him, he would naturally ask for the truth.

“Hey, Duke, I heard from people in our circle that the person who shot you last night was Ms. Dew Daugherty.” Trent lowered his voice and said, “Is it true?"

The Winters family had injected a lot of money into suppressing news about George being kidnapped last night. But as long as the people in their circle insisted on asking about it, they would still hear something. Duke glanced at him coldly. “What else do you know?”

“Oh, I also know that your son happened to be kidnapped,” Trent shook his head. “You’ve protected your sons so securely. Why would someone be crazy enough to harm the young master of the Winters family? Dew did it, didn’t she? Is that woman insane? How could she do such a heartless thing? But I heard that after she was jailed last night, she was taught a ruthless lesson. I heard that something’s wrong with her mental state now.”

Duke frowned. Teaching her a lesson was a mild punishment. As long as Dew was jailed, she would not be able to get out uninjured.

“But what does this have to do with Adina?” Trent stroked his chin. “Let me guess. Did Adina rescue your son? And then you went to save Adina, so the scene where you acted as the hero rescuing the beauty played out?”

“Do you have too much free time?” Duke asked coldly.

“I’m concerned about your marriage!” Trent said in a righteous manner. “I’m telling you that you have to make good use of this heroic act. If you don’t seize this opportunity, it’ll be very difficult. Adina looks cold, but it’s actually easy to take her down. Come, let me tell you.”

Duke initially wanted to kick Trent out, but for some reason, he leaned forward and acted as if he was ready to listen to Trent.

While they were conversing, the ward’s door opened, and Adina walked in with the children. She instantly looked aloof as if nothing had happened. Duke leaned back on the bed, looking calm.

“Wow, the most beautiful woman in Sea City!” Trent immediately stood up. Just as he was about to approach, he suddenly noticed the little girl who was standing at the back. His eyes immediately lit up. “Oh, my day! Whose daughter is this? You’re gorgeous. Come over here. Let me give you a hug.”

Mina frowned. Before she could say anything, she heard Duke menacingly say, “Trent, I’m giving you three seconds to disappear.” Knowing what that meant, Trent hunched his shoulders. Eilarn immediately dragged him out. Soon, only two adults and four children were left in the ward.
