Chapter 626
Adina and Dillon were talking in a remote corner.
Both of them were dressed in black, so they did not attract too much attention.
"Ms.Daugherty, have you not rested well lately? Your dark circles look pretty heavy."
Dillon stared at her face and sounded a little worried.
"If you can’t sleep, it’s best not to take sleeping pills.Drinking some warm milk and taking a hot bath before you sleep will help you to rest."
Adina smiled and nodded.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr.Jones.I'll take note of that."
Dillon hesitated to speak, but he added, "Please don’t mind me asking.Is there a problem with your marriage?"
Adina looked up and stared at him indifferently.
"I'm sorry!"
Dillon quickly apologized.
"I’m not trying to be nosy.I just...want to show my concern.If you find it offensive, you can choose not to answer."
"My husband and I have a stable marriage.We’re very close.Thank you for your concern, Mr.Jones."
Adina smiled faintly and seemed relaxed.
Dillon was not a businessman, but he was already fifty years old.
The fact that he had lived to this age meant there was little he could not understand.He could see that Adina was just being perfunctory.He could also see that there were some problems with Adina’s marriage.
But he did know how to continue asking and caring about her.He was like a stranger to Adina.
Why would she tell a stranger about her personal love life? Ever since news of Duke and Adina getting a divorce came out the other day, he had not been able to sleep.He felt sorry for his daughter, whom he did not get back.
At the same time, he felt ashamed because he was happy.
If Adina truly divorced Duke, could he take this daughter back to the Jones family when she felt down? But it was just a thought that crossed his mind.He would rather Adina have a happy marriage and live happily for a lifetime.
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Right then, Daniel walked over and set his sights on Adina.
