Chapter178Â
Laney finally smiled a bit and was about to agree whenÂ
Reginald coldly said, “You’re not my driver’s assistant, I justÂ
asked you to come help me drive a car.”Â
Laney’s face turned pale.Â
Reginald turned away and said indifferently, “You just said youÂ
had a driver.”Â
Laney pursed her lips.Â
Reginald said again, “I’ve already eaten, it’s time for you to go back where you belong.”Â
“Reginald, Laney called out to him.Â
Adelaide knew she had more to say, so she turned around toÂ
find the car.Â
Laney glanced at her, with a hint of disbelief, “Reginald, is sheÂ
really that good?”Â
“Um.”Â
“But she…”Â
“Do we have to talk about this here?”Â
Chapter178Â
Laney glanced at the people coming and going, but in the endÂ
couldn’t bear the embarrassment. “Goodbye, Reginald.”Â
Adelaide didn’t drive the car right away. She sat in the car for aÂ
moment, played a little game.Â
Reginald didn’t sit down until the passenger door opened.Â
Adelaide didn’t say anything, started the car, and drove to theÂ
Orvenix Group.Â
There was a strange and oppressive atmosphere in the car,Â
Adelaide tried to ignore it as much as possible, but it justÂ
wouldn’t leave her alone.Â
“Anything else you want to ask me?” Reginald grumbled.Â
“What should I ask?” Adelaide was focused on driving, soÂ
without overthinking Reginald’s words, her subconscious justÂ
fired back.Â
Reginald’s face turned dark: “I had dinner with Laney.“”Â
Adelaide: “Eating… pretty normal.”Â
Seeing her indifferent, Reginald got even angrier. He was about to say something but then changed it to explain, “Once this mealÂ
is over, she will go back to Koblax.”Â
Adelaide didn’t know what to say.Â
Chapter178Â
This is Reginald’s own business after all.Â
But she remembered what Nathan said that day, wondering ifÂ
this time Reginald was going to run away from home again.Â
It’s obvious that Reginald didn’t run away from home. He justÂ
sent the blind date back to her place.Â
“Adelaide,” Reginald impatiently called her name when she stillÂ
didn’t respond.Â
The next second, Adelaide took out a gum from her pocket,Â
“Here, Mr. Thorton, chew on this, wake up your brain.“”Â
Reginald grabbed it and tossed three pieces of gum into hisÂ
mouth.Â
Bit really hard.Â
It was like biting Adelaide.Â
No more words along the way, back to Orvenix Group. AdelaideÂ
got back to work again.Â
WhatsApp in the corner of the computer kept buzzing.Â
She clicked and saw several friend requests.Â
“Adele, I’m Spencer.”Â
“I’ve taken care of the matter with Egbert, don’t worry.”Â
Chapter178Â
“Dad, I will also communicate with him, similar things won’tÂ
happen again.”Â
“I want to apologize to you, can you agree to add me back?”Â
Adelaide took a deep breath, rejected everything, and blockedÂ
them all.Â
At that moment, Reginald’s WhatsApp popped up.Â
“Come in, bring your tablet.”Â
The familiar feeling made Adelaide feel like she couldn’tÂ
breathe, she quickly typed, “Mr. Thorton, I need to do computerÂ
graphics now, I won’t draw for the time being.”Â
Reginald said, “Bring your computer in.”Â
Adelaide stared at the desktop computer, falling into silence.Â
She didn’t gossip about him at all, why did he still catch her andÂ
bring her into the office!Â
Adelaide replied again, “Mr. Thorton, I swear I didn’t gossipÂ
about you. I just wanted to chat, but Ms. Ortega wasn’t aroundÂ
either.”Â
Reginald texted, “You come in, you chat with me about myÂ
gossip.”Â
Chapter178Â
Adelaide had no choice but to walk into the office with herÂ
laptop and tablet, looking helpless.Â
“Mr. Thorton, I’m here,” she said weakly.Â
Reginald raised an eyebrow and chuckled, “Wasn’t it supposedÂ
to be a desktop computer?”Â
