Chapter 1054 The night grew darker.
Someone knocked on the presidential suite‘s door again.
This time, Kendry slowly walked in after Duke‘s room door was opened.
It was already 2:00 am.
If Kendry had not personally experienced it, he would not dare believe that someone had the ability to make a listed company disappear overnight.
He initially wanted to stubbornly resist, but Willis Corporation was losing $10,000,000 every minute.
At this point, Willis Corporation had nearly become an empty shell.
If this went on, Willis Corporation would no longer exist by the time the sun rose tomorrow. Everyone in the Willis family would even owe a huge amount of debt.
Duke was tapping on his laptop.
He raised his head indifferently. “Mr. Willis, please have a
seat.”
He was very polite and gentlemanly, but his actions were terrifying
Kendry dared not say a thing. He just sat down in a seat far away and asked, “Mr. Winters, do you want to know about my foster daughter?”
Duke closed his laptop. “It looks like you‘re planning to confess, Mr. Willis.”
Kendry choked on his words.
Did he still have a choice at this point?
It had been less than half a day since he discovered Adeena‘s identity until now, but the Willis family was already suffering the consequences. “The Willis family adopted Adeena four years ago. We were on a vacation at the beach when we found her lying there unconscious, so we brought her home.”
Kendry‘s voice echoed softly in the living room, and Duke listened to him seriously. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
He had investigated the matter for a long time, but he only managed to find things that had happened to Addy over the past three years. A year in between was missing.
He had made use of hacking techniques, but they were to no avail.
He was planning to find an expert from the dark web and investigate the matter again.
However, if Kendry could confess honestly, there would be no need to put in that effort to hire new people.
“She had been soaking in seawater for about five days, and she was unconscious , so I sent her to the hospital. The results showed that she was about one month pregnant at that time. I don‘t remember the details anymore…”
“What did you say?”
Duke‘s pupils instantly shrank.
He immediately grabbed Kendry by the shoulders. “Did you say that she was pregnant?”
Kendry‘s heart seemed to seize.
It felt as if his life was in Duke‘s hands and he would be killed at any moment.
He slowly nodded. “Yes, she was about one month pregnant. She was unconscious for a long time, and the baby slowly grew inside her body. But her body was too weak. She relied on the IV to live, and the baby‘s growth became completely stunted. As soon as it was born, it died.”
Duke‘s heart instantly sank.
Before he could feel happy, the child whom he just knew about had actually…
He closed his eyes in pain.
“Continue,” he said softly.
Kendry dared not look at Duke. “Adeena experienced massive bleeding when she gave birth. The doctors performed an emergency operation, and she finally survived after almost all of her blood was replaced.”
Duke pursed his lips tightly.
He could imagine the danger she was in based on those few sentences.
Giving birth and experiencing massive bleeding were no accidents. Many pregnant women would encounter such situations. Besides, she had lost consciousness when giving birth, so the probability of that happening was even higher.
Luckily, she managed to stay alive.
Just then, something occurred to Duke. She had undergone blood replacement.
