Chapter 921
“Daddy, we understand.” Alden stood up and said, “Mommy doesn‘t seem to be feeling well. Daddy, please bring Mommy upstairs to rest.”
Duke raised his hand and touched Alden‘s head. His son knew everything and could also understand it all.
It was also thanks to Alden that Addý managed to become more and more excellent over the past four years.
Duke held Adina‘s shoulders and went upstairs.
Right after he closed the room door, Adina leaned on Duke‘s shoulder and sobbed softly.
“Duke, you‘ve known about it too, haven‘t you? But you‘ve been hiding it from me.” She cried as she said, “I read the interview on the biochip today. All of those victims who were implanted with bio–chips died miserably. Even if doctors intervene with the aftercare, those people still spend the rest of their lives in pain. Will I end up the same?”
“Addy, don‘t say such things!” Duke coaxed her. “The biggest side effect of the bio–chip is irritability and anger. Getting grumpy and angry easily is actually not a big deal. Look at me. I‘m pretty bad–tempered too, right? People in Winters Corporation are afraid of me. Whenever I get angry, everyone feels as if it‘s the end of the world.”
Adina chuckled with amusement. She wiped her tears and said, “Do you know what everybody calls you in private?” “Of course, I know. The demon,‘ right?” Duke tapped her nose. “Everyone will give you a nickname.”
Adina looked at him.“What nickname?”
“Maleficent.”
“B*stard!” Adina hit his chest angrily. “How can you laugh at your own wife like that?”
Duke wrapped his arms around her and said, “I can accept you no matter what your personality is. When the kids grow up, they‘ll also understand why you changed. As for the outsiders, do they matter? Whatever they think has nothing to do with us as long as our family lives happily together.” Adina finally felt a little relieved.
