Madam Winters’s Fight For Her Children novel Chapter 823

Chapter 823

Adina still did not escape Duke.

When she looked at the few dark red hickeys on her neck, she almost wanted to cry without tears.

“Duke Winters, you b*stard!”

She put on her makeup while she gritted her teeth and cursed.

Duke slowly put on a suit and seemed very satisfied with himself. 

“I‘ll send you over later.”

Adina snorted and ignored him.

Luckily, the dress that Dillon had custom–made for her was relatively conservative, and it covered the hickeys on her neck. Hence, she was not afraid of people gossiping about her.

By the time she dressed up and went downstairs, Mr. Brown had sent the four kids to preschool. It was the end of November now. The kids would have a winter break in half a month, and it would be a brand–new year following the second half of that month.

Speaking of which, this was the first New Year‘s Eve that Adina would be spending with the kids in Cairnstan, and she secretly looked forward to it.

Duke sent Adina to the entrance of the hotel.

“Give me a call when it‘s almost over. I‘ll come and pick you up.”

She heard the man‘s deep and husky voice in the car.

He actually wanted to attend the reunion banquet with her, but he knew that she had her own plans, so he could only let her go in alone to face everything.

“Don‘t worry about me. Everything‘s under control.”

As soon as she said that, she heard a sneer.

When she turned around, she saw Sophia‘s mocking expression.

Sophia initially did not want to come, but the Gardner family insisted on her presence. They told her that the Jones family was big in Sea City, and it would be best if she could seek a connection.

It happened that the Xavier family was also attending the banquet, so she followed them.

However, when she saw how exquisitely and stunningly dressed Adina was, she felt uncomfortable again.

There were clearly two scars on Adina‘s face, and she clearly did not look as good as she used to, but why was she still the most dazzling one?

Adina smiled faintly, and her eyes shone brightly. “What are you scoffing at, Sophia?”

She had put on heavy makeup today to cover up her two scars, so only faint dark marks were visible.
