Adina narrowed her eyes. She lifted her leg and kicked up the steel pipe from the ground before she held it with her hand and used it as a weapon.
She thought that Earleyâs subordinates had come over. When she saw the two kids who appeared at the entrance of the warehouse, she instantly sighed in relief.
Then, her indifferent face looked stern. âWhy are the two of you here?â
âMommy, Iâm glad that youâre fine!â Alden immediately rushed over and held Adinaâs waist tightly.
His slightly mature face was full of worries and thankfulness.
Adinaâs heart melted. âAlden, Iâm fine. Nothing will happen to me. Donât worry.â
Alden held her tightly, and he gloomily remained silent.
George walked over, pursed his pink lips, and said softly, âAlden felt something happened to you and Dad, so he found out your location. Luckily, nothing serious happened.â
s-fight-for Tag Gener do this again. The two of you are just kids. How could you run out of the house in the middle of the night? I know youâre smart, but no matter how smart you are, you can only manage so much against vicious adults.â
Ho Alden schooled his expression. He raised his head and said, âMom, we didnât come out alone. We brought a few bodyguards.â When Adina looked over, she indeed saw four tall and muscular bodyguards standing beside the car. âIs⦠Dad alright?â
George looked at Duke, who was unconscious, and he asked softly. Adina felt grateful for a moment.
These two kids did not forget their own dad.
She said in a seemingly relaxing tone, âYour dad is just slightly injured. Itâs no big deal. Georgie, ask the bodyguards to come over and help bring your dad into the car.â
The four bodyguards walked in from outside the warehouse, carefully carrying Duke while walking outside.
When Adina walked to the entrance, she stopped walking and cast a glance at the back.
Poup The office was less than one hundred meters away from the southwest of the warehouse. Earley fainted due to being beaten by her, so he should still be in that office now.
She hesitated for less than a second before she coldly said, âThe two of you, go to the room at the southwest. There is an unconscious man there. Tie him up and take him back with us.â
The two bodyguards immediately went over and looked for the person after they received the order.
Three minutes later, the bodyguards came back. âMiss Daugherty, there is no one in the room.â
Adina frowned.
It looked like Earley had already run away.
She did not know what kind of grudge this man and Duke had. The only thing that she worried about was that Earley would come back again and harm the kids.
She pursed her lips and said, âLetâs go to the hospital first.â
The bodyguard drove the car to the private hospital that Winters Corporation had invested in. Adina took the kids out of the car before she said softly, âGeorgie, Alden, you go back to the Winters family with the bodyguards first. Iâll be here with your dad in the hospital tonight.â
âNo!â
Alden refused without even thinking about it.
He wanted to accompany mom and protect her. He could How could Adina not understand Aldenâs thoughts? She stroked her sonâs soft hair before she said softly, âLet two of the four bodyguards you brought stay to protect me, and Iâll be fine. Alden, you have to go back and take care of Mel for me. If you stay in the hospital, Mel will be lost without the both of us. Wonât she be so scared that she will cry? Alden, youâre a good boy. Go back with Georgie and accompany Mel, okay?â
Alden pursed his lips tightly, and he nodded only after a long while. âIâll come to you tomorrow morning.â
Adina looked at George again and softly said, âGeorgie , youâre the eldest brother. Can you take good care of your brothers and sister for me tonight?â
George nodded strongly. âI will, Mommy. Also, I wonât tell Mel that dad is injured. Donât worry, Mommy.â
Adina touched her sonsâ heads before she ordered the bodyguards to bring the kids back to the Winters family.
