My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 605

Chapter 605 “The lipstick got smudged on the collar by accident,” Earl explained very patiently.

His hand that was holding onto the woman‘s chin gradually moved down and wrapped itself around her slim waist.

He slowly leaned forward and whispered in her ear, “Addy, I‘ve been really busy with work for the past month and I must‘ve neglected you. It‘s totally my fault and I‘m sorry. Will you forgive me?”

In a split second, Adina felt as if she had caught a glimpse of the past Duke.

The one who loved, cared for, protected, and always respected her.

“It‘s not that I don‘t love you, Addy. It‘s just that I don‘t know how to. Let‘s start over, okay?”

The man held her face with both of his hands before his thin lips slowly closed in.

Adina‘s head started to buzz all of a sudden.

Her body responded before her brain could, and she swiftly evaded the man‘s kiss.

Earl‘s attempt at the kiss had failed, and the hostility that momentarily flashed in his eyes was masterfully suppressed.

He licked his lips and quietly said, “As long as we‘re not

divorced, you‘re still my legal wife. So, as your husband, why can‘t I kiss you?”

Adina simply stared at him closely.

The way he suddenly bowed his head and apologized reminded her of the old Duke.

But now he was back to being someone who could only be

sarcastic.

She had always harbored doubts about the possibility of two souls sharing that same body, each with an entirely distinct personality that could switch at will.

He had tugged off his tie as soon as he entered the room, and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, displaying his strong chest muscles.

A week ago, it was clear that he had no tattoos on his chest. However, by this time, a python and several other patterns had been inked there.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
