My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 258 “Thank you, Mr. Watson,” Adina said sincerely.

“You don‘t have to thank me. You can thank Duke. If he hadn‘t come to me, it would‘ve been impossible for me to get involved in such a lawsuit.” Brenden raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. “I still have things to do, so I need to leave first. Ms. Daugherty, let‘s keep in touch.”

Brenden walked up to Duke and patted him on the shoulder. “I‘ll drive your car. You should cherish this opportunity.”

Before Duke could say anything, he took his car key and drove away.

At 5.00 pm, the late autumn sky was haloed with the yellowish–orange evening sun. The sunlight shone on the wall tiles outside the preschool, creating charming refractions.

Adina stood outside the preschool and softly said, “Mr. Winters, thank you.”

Duke turned to the side slightly and stared at her.

She had an exquisite face, and as the sunset glow shone on her, she seemed to be surrounded by a layer of golden light.

She was wearing a pair of pearl earrings. When the warm sunlight illuminated her side profile, it made her look gentle and charming.

Duke pursed his lips and asked, “Have you felt tired all these years?”

Adina was stunned.
