Chapter 438
George held Alden’s hand. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to my room. I have many good things in my room. I believe you’ll like them!”
Harold looked around. “Mel, go with them to George’s room. I have something to do.”
He smirked to himself before he turned around and went to the courtyard.

Under the cook’s guidance, Duke finally made some tea.
He held a cup of tea and knocked on the guest room door. He knocked on the door for a while, but the room remained silent.
He turned the doorknob and pushed it open.
Then, his breathing stopped.

Adina had taken off her outerwear and was strewn out on the bed. She was wearing a chiffon shirt. Her sleeves were rolled up, showing her jade-like arms.
She had taken some wine. When the alcohol dissipated off her body, her cheeks blushed like a glorious sunset.
The redness extended from her cheeks to her neck, and her collar bones glowed pink.
The blanket covered her chest, and it went up and down along her breath.
He immediately looked away and forbade himself from staring at the alluring figure. He covered his lips with his hand and coughed, but he still could not wake up the woman who was laying on the bed.
“Addy, wake up.” Duke moved two steps closer and softly called her. Adina still closed her eyes. Her breathing was very light, and she slept very soundly.
