Chapter 117 It was only after Adina carried Melody to the lobby that she sighed in relief. The little girl let go of her neck, and she looked self-blame and guilty. “Mel, tell mommy why did you come to Winters Corporation?”
Adina asked in a low voice. However, the girl looked dumbfounded as she widened her eyes. She could not say a word. Adina sighed. “You just need to shake your head or nod. Did anyone bring you here?” Melody shook her head. “So, did you come here on your own?” Melody nodded.
Adina pursed her lips.
She wanted to ask why Melody would go there, and she also wanted to ask how Melody knew the place. But Melody did not speak, so it was useless even if she asked. She stroked her daughter’s hair. Only then did she realize that Melody had changed her clothes. When she left the house, she had worn a pink dress, but she was wearing a loose long sleeved blouse and pants now.
Besides, when she arrived at Duke’s office just now, it seemed like Melody had just stepped out of the shower.
What happened for Melody to need a shower? Adina slowly pursed her pink lips.
She should not have left in a hurry just now. She had not even asked about certain things that she should have asked.
She held Melody tightly as she walked out of the building, and she coincidentally heard a conversation between a few security guards. “The little girl today is really pretty. She was taken by Mr. Winters for so long. I wonder if she is fine.”
“It’s my first time to see Mr. Winters show such a gentle expression. He will not do anything to the girl.”
“Hey, what relationship do you think is between the little girl and Mr. Winters? Why did such a small kid hide in the flower bed for two hours just to wait for Mr. Winters to come out?”
“Also, the little girl was in Winters Corporation for about two hours. Her parents didn’t come and look for her. Do you think Mr. Winters is her father?”
