Chapter 789: Chapter 789

Adina was dumbfounded.She finally understood why Duke hated Earl so much and why he had to drive Earl out of Sea City.

If not for Earl, his father would not have died.

Even if his father died, he should not have had to carry such a stigma.

“He’s a typical sociopath.Even after my father sacrificed his life for him, he did not change in the slightest.”

Duke slowly said, “He constantly believes that the Winters family mistreated him and that he lives a painful life because of my existence in this world.After our father died, he got triggered and plotted numerous assassinations.I was lucky to escape his hands with my life intact.”

Adina hugged him tightly.

“People like him should be punished in prison rather than continue to harm others outside.”

Duke hugged her slim waist with a backhand and said softly, “For the time being, I can’t remember anything that happened after I turned fifteen, and I have no idea why I didn’t put him in jail.Perhaps it had something to do with my mother.She felt the Winters family owed Earl, so she should have stopped me from doing so.”

Adina sighed.

“What if Mrs.Winters forces you to release Earl next? What will you do?”

“It is impossible to let him go.”

Adina covered her face and awakened in shock. She sat straight, a layer of cold sweat seeping through her back.She looked like she had been fished out of the water.

“Don’t be scared…”

Duke hugged her in his arms.

“I am here.No one will hurt you again.”

Adina leaned against Duke’s chest and listened to his sonorous heartbeat.She then gradually calmed down.It was bizarre how she would dream about the time when Isabelle kidnapped her.

Although her disfigured face made her a little upset, it did not traumatize her, so why would she dream about that scene?

“I will find you the best plastic surgeon, and you will restore your face as before.”

Duke patted her back while softly comforting her.

“Don’t worry about this matter.It’s going to be all right.”

Adina held his hand and said, “I’m fine.I don’t care too much about the matter of my disfigurement.It’s just that the wound is a bit itchy again.”

She scratched through the gauze.

Duke quickly pressed her restless little hand.

“The doctor had already told you not to scratch it.I’ll get you some anti – inflammatory medicine.After you take the medicine, go back to sleep.”
