It was already 5:00 pm when they came back from the Jones family. Along the way, Harold was the
most excited.He simply could not stop talking.
“Grandpa” Dillon said I’m talented in painting.He even said that my drawings are good enough to shine
even in a national children’s drawing competition.
“Grandpa Dillon said he can teach me painting every weekend.Mommy, can you take me there every
week?” Adina stroked his head and said, “Painting is very boring.It's not something you'll find yourself
doing long, just because of a momentary spark of interest.Can you keep it?” Harold nodded.
“Mommy, I will keep drawing every day, just like Mel.”
“Awesome.” Adina gently smiled and said, “I’ll take you to the market to buy professional painting tools
and drawing papers tomorrow.Get some rest first today."
“Thank you, Mommy!” Harold happily took Melody to play.
Meanwhile, Adina put on her apron and went to the kitchen.
Duke had made her breakfast, so she should prepare dinner.
There were all kinds of fresh ingredients in the kitchen. let the
servants clear a pound of shrimp before she boiled them in water and prepared a plate of delicious
dipping sauce.
There was a fresh fish in the pool.
She quickly produced a deep-fried fish, cut half a chicken to make some fried chicken with mashed
potatoes, a small plate of steak, a bowl of salad, and a simple mushroom soup.
Then, a simple home-cooked dinner was prepared.
As soon as the dinner was served, Duke came back.
After he entered the house and changed his shoes, he took the black mask off his face.
Melody was the first to rush over.
“Daddy, why do you wear a mask every day?"
"Because I have a scar on my face.People who are already afraid of me might be even more afraid of
me because of it,” Duke answered her with a gentle voice before he lifted her up,threw her in the air,
and caught her.
Harold excitedly jumped.
“I want to play! I want it, too!”
“Alright, don't pester your Daddy.Go and wash your hands.Get ready for dinner." Adina untied her
apron and set up the tableware.
The kids immediately went to wash their hands.
Adina's dishes were not as scrumptious as those prepared by a chef, but the food was home-cooked.
The kids and Duke were very satisfied with the dinner.
Adina took a portion of each dish and let Papa Brown bring it upstairs for Mabel.
Mabel was ill because of her constant worries, so her health had not been very good.
The weather was cold now, and she had a slight cough.
Besides, there was nothing to say between her, Adina, and Duke, so she did not come out all day.
Adina knew that it was not a good thing to let Mabel continue being like this.
But she was just an outsider of the Winters family.
Duke was the only one who could ease Mabel of her worries.
It depended on whether Duke was willing to help ease her worries.
After dinner, the kids played tag in the courtyard , while Adina had a servant bring down Catherine,who
was locked up on the third floor.
Catherine had not changed much after being locked up for three days, other than her green eyes
appearing a little dull.
Pete prepared the tools needed for hypnosis before he coldly said, “Logically speaking, the second
hypnosis can make a person recall most of their memories.Catherine, don't you think of playing any
tricks."
Adina indifferently said, “If Duke’s amnesia can be cured after the second hypnosis, you can leave the
Winters familyearly.”
“I want to see Earl first." Catherine bit her bottom lip, and she spoke clearly, “Earl might have died in
your hands.Unless you let me see Earl alive, I'd rather be locked up for the rest of my life.” Duke coldly
glanced at her.
“Do you really want to see Earl?" Catherine gritted her teeth.
