“Wait a minute, Addy. I’ll drive you after I finish washing the dishes.”
Duke wore an apron. He put the empty dishes into the sink and washed them.
Adina sat at the dining table and held her chin in her hands. She looked at the man in admiration.
His fingers were slender, and his back was broad and sturdy. He was tall. She wanted to spend a romantic night with him.
After moving in, they had barely spent any passionate moment together. They slept in separate rooms. They didn’t even dare to kiss. At most, they hugged.
They were afraid. Especially Adina. They were afraid of triggering the orders from the biochip like it had happened before.
Duke turned around and met her gaze. He smirked. “Don’t look at me like that. If I didn’t know better, I would think you were insinuating something else.”
Adina blushed and quickly looked away.
Duke was already trying very hard to control himself. If she looked at him like that every time, he might just lose it and give in to his desires.
Duke drove the car, and Adina sat in the front passenger seat. They went to the Jones family’s mansion together.
“Duke, you have stayed by me these past few days, so you probably didn’t have time to take care of the company’s affairs. You should go to Winters Corporation and take care of your work. You can come to pick me in an hour.” Adina smiled and got out of the car.
Duke was planning to accompany her. However, he knew she would not agree to it, especially since she needed to handle this herself.
“Okay, I’ll come in an hour then.”
