Chapter 518
“Since you already have four kids, shouldn’t you get married?” Trent casually asked. “Let me make this clear.
I want to be your best man!” Duke pursed his lips. “She doesn’t want to get married so soon. I respect her opinion.”
“Mr. Winters, when did you learn to respect other people’s opinions ?” Trent rolled his eyes. “I think you haven’t controlled that woman! But it’s not your fault. She’s gorgeous and good at martial arts. Not many men in the world can handle her! I guess it’s probably because of the kids that she agreed to marry you…”
Trent kept nagging him. When Duke cast a cold and piercing gaze over, Trent scoffed and softly said, “I’m just stating the facts, okay? If I had four kids with her, she would agree to marry me too. Okay, I’ll stop talking now. Hey, why are you still hitting me when you’re injured? Eilam, let’s get out of here!”
Trent crawled and rolled to escape.
The ward was finally quiet.
But Duke’s expression was dour.
Even though he could not accept it, he had to admit that Trent might be right.
When he and Adina first met, she resisted him a lot. She gradually accepted only because of Harold and George.
There were probably two reasons why she was willing to marry him now; the children were hoping that their parents would get married, and he had also saved her. A woman would always be grateful to a man who had saved her life.
How much did she like and love him?
Duke pursed his lips tightly. There was a sharp glint in his thin lips, but his black eyes were filled with frustration and confusion.
Adina saw the way he looked after she turned around and went back to the ward.
She thought he had looked like a stray dog earlier, but why did she find him looking like a resentful woman now?
What happened this time?
She walked in and softly asked, “Do you feel unwell?”
Duke looked up. He stared at her with his inky eyes and slowly asked, “Are you really willing to marry me?”
