Chapter 780
Although Adina did not say it out loud, Duke could already guess why his twin brother could live in his home with such impunity.
‘My own mother must’ve played an important role behind this incident.
‘Since she has chosen Earl Winters, I do not owe her the courtesy"
"Let me bring you to the hospital to get a new set of medicine."
Duke rested his hand on Adina’s waist as they walked out.
Adina pursed her lips, feeling unsure.She did not know what to say.
There were grudges between mother and son as well as between the siblings.
Just as they reached the door, all of a sudden, they heard hurried footsteps behind them.
"Welcome back."
Mabel’s voice sounded weak.
Adina and Duke turned to look at her at the same time.
Mabel was not wearing any coat.She stood on the stairs and stopped on the carpet barefoot.
Mabel was initially calm, but when she saw Duke, who wore a mask, froze.
"Is that you, Duke? You’re alive.Duke, you're still alive!"
Mabel stumbled down the stairs and pulled Duke into her arms.
Adina slowly stepped back.
Duke let Mabel hold him.
After a few seconds, he said in a calm voice, "Shouldn’t you ask about Earl’s whereabouts?"
Mabel’s eyes widened.
"Duke, what did you do to your brother?"
Duke showed a sinister smile.
"Duke, please..."
Tears streamed down her cheeks.
"You and Earl are my biological children.No matter which of you gets hurt, I'll be the one who suffers the most...When I found out that you might be dead, do you know how dejected I was ..."
