“Addy, I’m sorry…”
Duke pursed his lips and clenched his teeth tightly.
‘I know there’s no use in me apologizing. But I don’t know what else to say other than saying sorry…
‘Four years ago, when Dew approached me with Hal and George, she showed me two paternity tests. I believed her because they were from Sea City’s most authoritative paternity test agency.’
“Addy, I will accept whatever you say, no matter how you scold me. I just want you to know one thing…” Duke looked at Adina in her eyes. “I have never dated Dew, and I’ve never planned to marry her. The baby in her stomach is not mine. I know that for sure.”
When Adina heard how solemn Duke sounded, she gradually calmed down.
‘I don’t feel like going out tonight anymore. I have been losing control of my emotions all day.
‘I’ve even questioned him repeatedly. Who am I to do that…?
‘I lost my two sons back then. Duke took George and Harold in and raised them. How can I blame him?’
“I’m sorry…” Adina whispered. “I was overwhelmed earlier. I shouldn’t be angry with you…”
Duke looked at her and said, “No, you don’t have to say sorry. Anyone in the right mind would’ve been furious. You’re just letting your feelings out…”
Adina pursed her lips. “Dew is a lunatic. We won’t know what she’s up to next. We must protect our four children. We must not let them get hurt anymore…”
Duke nodded and said softly, “Let’s go home. The children are waiting.”
After they got in the car, Duke sent a message. He then stepped on the accelerator and left the hospital.
