Chapter 327
Duke looked at Adina’s side profile. He was very good at seeing through people’s minds. He could tell that this woman was lying.
But he did not know why she wanted to lie.
He took out a few tickets from his suit pocket before he handed them over her. “I would like to invite Mel to a piano concert. It will be on Saturday afternoon, these are the tickets. May I know if you’ll have the time?”
Adina cast a glance at the tickets. This was a joint recital by some internationally renowned pianists, and it was very difficult to get even one ticket. And this man had a stack of them? It looked like there were at least five tickets. She pursed her lips and said, “If Mel says yes, I’m okay with it.” Duke quirked his eyebrows. Why was this woman being so nice now? It was as though the woman who had coldly treated him was just his hallucination. Buzz!
The phone on the cabinet suddenly vibrated. Adina looked over. It was a call from Brenden. She wiped her hands clean before she answered the call. “Mr. Watson.” “Miss Daugherty, the lawyer advisory team of the Osborne family contacted me just now.” Brenden’s voice was slightly solemn. “Tyson had filed the lawsuit alone, so his ability was after all, limited. But now, it seems that the whole Tyson family wants to put all their effort into this lawsuit. Old Mr. Osborne has put in a lot of money to hire a lawyer team overseas. The number of members in the team is more than fifteen people. They are very aggressive.” Adina’s gaze was indifferent. “I got it, Mr. Watson.”
It did not matter how many lawyers the Osborne family had recruited. They would be unable to take the custody away from her because the kids did not belong to the Osborne family. After Adina hung up, she was thinking about how she should open up to Brenden about this. Duke walked forward, and he said softly, “What do you plan to do next?”
