My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417

Adina stood in front of the tap and washed her hands. The kitchen was filled with the sound of running water.

She lowered her gaze and looked at her hand before she spoke again, “I won’t let go of the four children, and I won’t marry into the Winters family because of them.”

Duke looked at the side of her face. Her eyelashes cast a shadow over her eyes and hid her emotions away.

He could not figure out what was on her mind.

He pursed his lips and asked softly, “Why?”

Adina wiped her hands.

She slowly looked up. Her lips were downturned, making her look fierce.

“There are some things that I just don’t want to bring up.

‘At first, I resisted and struggled with all my strength, but it was all in vain. In the end, I was ruthlessly plowed by him.

‘It was the most depressing night I’ve ever had.

‘I still feel disgusted every time I wake up…’.

Even though Adina did not utter a word, Duke noticed a look of disgust in her gaze.

The look in her eyes came upon him like a tidal wave, choking him.
