My Mommy’s Brave Heart (Adina and Duke) novel Chapter 656

Chapter 656.

Adina turned her body sideways and asked calmly, “Are you free to talk?”

“What leverage can you use to negotiate with me?” Earl sneered. “Forget about using my identity. Let me warn you again: if my identity is exposed, the psychologist will be the first to die. And … the least obedient among the four children will be next in line.”

Adina clenched her fist. She almost threw it at him.

Threatening her with her children was a quick way to break her composure.

‘Luckily, I‘ve sent them overseas. I don‘t have to worry about them.’

She took a deep breath. “It’s precisely because I don‘t have leverage that I want to talk to you. You don‘t want to have a ticking time bomb living in the house, do you?”

Earl took a glance at Adina, strode into the bedroom, and sat down on the bed.

He crossed his legs, looking like a gangster.

Before this, he had been forced to learn how Duke acted.

However, now that his identity has been exposed, he has become even more comfortable.

He took out another cigarette from his pocket and lit it before saying, “Go on.”

Adina‘s hatred towards him boiled up even more as she watched how he acted.

‘This man killed my husband. But I still need to make false promises with him here.

‘I need to stay calm. I can only find Duke‘s whereabouts if I am calm.‘

“Frankly, I hate you. I hate you so much that I want to kill you. But…” She paused before continuing to say, “My four children have just started having a happy, complete family. They finally have a father and a mother. If they find out that their father has passed away, it will impact them a lot. No mother can endure such humiliation for her child, and neither can I.”

Earl frowned as he looked at her. “So?”

“But I‘m not willing to stay in the Winters family just because of the children.” Adina gritted her teeth. “Since we‘ve come to this, let‘s sign a divorce paper for a start.”

She took out the divorce paper from the drawer again.

“Do you really think I‘ll agree with the divorce?” Earl chuckled. “I just got a firm foothold in Winters Corporation. If I were to get divorced, everyone would be asking me questions. It doesn‘t benefit me at all.”

‘Even if she hates me, I must force her to stay in the Winters family…

Earl stubbed the cigarette and smiled coldly, “So, you were confident that I won‘t agree to the divorce, aren‘t you? You even thought about your demands already, huh?

Adina brushed her black and beautiful long hair to the back and smiled brightly, “Earl, I‘m sure you have feelings for me, even if it‘s just a little bit.”
