“Sob! Sob! Grandma, the mute bullied me!” When Leo saw his grandmother, he instantly felt supported, so he began to tattle. Morganna looked up and saw Melody standing behind Harold with a cold and hostile expression. She became furious at that moment. It was not the first time that this b*stard had bullied her grandson! She rushed over angrily, raised her hand, and attempted to pinch Melody’s ear. However, Harold immediately pushed her away. “I beat them up. Why? Do you want to hit me back?” He was only four years old. His stature was small, but he had a strong imposing manner. He glared at her, and the aura in his eyes was exactly the same as Duke’s. Morganna was stunned as a result. “Grandma, he asked his bodyguard to throw us into the flowerbed!” Leo cried and yelled. The other children also shouted, “Yeah, it was him. His bodyguard threw all of us into the flowerbed.” “He even let his bodyguard throw some dirt into my mouth! Sob! Mommy, please don’t let him get

Duke pursed his lips.In truth, he never saw anything. He just heard the sounds of children crying.When he walked over and saw the girl, whose body was covered in dirt, he could not help but feel angry.The little girl was adorable, so she could not have hit them first.Hence, the only possibility was her being bullied.He had simply made up a story, and those rich ladies ended up backing down.Duke cast a cold glance at Harold’s bodyguard.The bodyguard took one step forward before he respectfully reported, “Those children laughed at this young lady for her inability to speak and for being a mute, so both parties had some conflicts. Young Master Harold could not bear it, so he ordered me to help the young lady and avenge her.”Inability to speak?A mute?There was shock in Duke’s black eyes.He looked at Melody, and pain suddenly filled his heart.He squatted down to the girl’s height before he waved at her. “Come here. Let me see if you’re injured.”His figure was refle

Why did he have two sons?Why did he not have a daughter?If he had a daughter, he would definitely pamper his daughter to the point that she would be a little princess whom everyone envied the most.Duke wanted to go over and hug the girl, but he suppressed his urge.She was Adina’s daughter!This woman had hidden intentions, so her daughter might only look beautiful!It was tough for Duke to look away from her. He put one hand into his pocket and continued to emanate a cold aura.Meanwhile, Harold rushed over.He could not hold back and just pinched Melody’s cheek.The girl moved his hand away indifferently, and she seemed to look at him with caution.“Mel, I’ll be your brother. I’ll protect you. Can I help you dry your hair?”Melody, who usually did not respond to any external sound, shook her head strongly.Adina was extremely surprised.No matter what she said in the past, Melody would not respond. She even rarely nodded or shook her head.But now, Melody had actuall

Dew sighed in relief.She wanted to become Mrs. Winters, so she did not want to get involved with these dumb issues.Since her father was willing to get involved, she would not look for trouble.The Daugherty family took action very quickly. At 6.00 am the next morning, the press conference was ready.Aaron appeared in front of the cameras like a lovely father. He did not sleep the entire night, hence he appeared to be haggard and gloomy. Before he spoke, some people had already sympathized with him.“Addy’s my daughter. She’s my first child. My love for her can’t be described in words… Five years ago, she made a terrible mistake, and I became furious. I grounded her so that she could reflect on her actions for a few months, and that approach was wrong of me. But, if all of you think about it from a father’s perspective, you would understand me.“Later, she set fire to the mansion and tried to burn the Daugherty family, causing Daugherty Corporation to lose more than a billion do

After a long time, a childish but deep voice finally came from the other end of the line. “Mom, why are you calling me?”“George, only you can help me now. I’ve run out of options…” Dew covered her lips, and her tears kept falling.She said in a sobbing tone, “Someone is viciously attacking Daugherty Corporation. There’s tons of negative news about Daugherty Corporation on the Internet now. The corporation’s stock prices have also dropped to the minimum now. If this progresses, the company will need to announce bankruptcy…” While she spoke, there were audible tapping sounds from the keyboard on the other end of the line.A while later, the deep voice could be heard again. “Mom, Daugherty Corporation has a lot of wealth, so it won’t go bankrupt just because of this. All the negative rumors on the Internet now are based on a fifty-four-second surveillance video. Mom, may I know if you’re the person in the video?”“It’s not me… Why would it be me?” Dew instinctively started to den
