Fan Husband 157

Nyasia didn’t say it directly, but the hint was pretty clear. 

Sure enough, what you fear will come. 

Back at the office, Adelaide found a cup of coffee and a delicate 

afternoon snack on her desk. 

Mara leaned in and said, “Ms. Pierce, this is the afternoon tea 

your mother asked someone to bring you.” 

Adelaide froze, “Mr. Thorton’s mother?” 

Mara nodded, “Yeah, it was Mrs. Thorton’s driver who brought 

1. it. He specifically asked for you, Pierce, and said he had a 

message for you. Mrs. Thorton wanted to thank you for your 

help, so this is a little token of appreciation.“”

Adelaide: ……… 

She really lives up to being a rich man’s wife. 

Jorge blinked and asked quietly, “Ms. Pierce, what did you do to 

help Mrs. Thorton? You got into the inner circle so quickly!” 

Adelaide was also helpless, you know. 

She hadn’t even thought about how to approach Reginald to 

Chapter157 

persuade him, and then Nyasia just put her on the spot, letting 

everyone know she was helping Nyasia. 

“I….” 

“Ms. Pierce, Mr. Thorton wants you to go to the office,” Nathan’s 

voice came from behind. 

Her face looked even more bitter, she picked up her coffee and 

dessert, turned around and walked away. 

She shoved the things into Nathan’s hands, looking at him for 

help, “Mr. Hurst, can you help me with this?“? 

Nathan took it with both hands, smiled back, and said 

sympathetically, “Ms. Pierce, I understand.” 

“I hope Mr. Thorton can understand too,” Adelaide cried 

mournfully. 

Nathan didn’t say anything, he just smiled. He couldn’t say no, 

Mr. Thorton just told him to go get Ms. Pierce with a stern face. 

Nathan patted her shoulder and said, “Once inside, Ms. Pierce, 

you need to tell the truth. As for these, don’t worry, I’ll take care 

of it.” 

“Thank you.” 

Adelaide pushed the door open and was about to speak when 

Chapter157 

she saw Reginald on the phone. She shut her mouth and stood 

at the door without going in. 

Reginald noticed and turned to look at her. 

Then he waved goodbye. 

Adelaide nodded, closed the door, and walked over. 

Soon, she heard Reginald say in a deep voice on the phone, “See you in half an hour.” 

The phone hung up, the man took a step towards her and said, “Tell me everything my mom said to you, word for word.“” 

Adelaide only said the final words. 

Reginald squinted and said, “Just this?” 

Adelaide didn’t say anything and just nodded, “Hmm.” 

“You were lying.” 

“No.” 

Seeing her insist, Reginald chuckled and said, “Tidy up and come 

with me.” 

Adelaide lightly scoffed and asked without thinking, “Going to 

see a client?” 

Chapter157 

“Yeah,” Reginald stared deeply at her, “from now on, you’re going to discuss projects with me every day!” 

Adelaide was speechless all of a sudden, did he already know about the things Mrs. Thornton talked to her on the phone? 

Shouldn’t have. 

Did Mrs. Thorton talk to her son by herself? 

“What’s up?” 

Adelaide snapped back to reality, still thinking the possibility was slim, definitely Reginald setting her up. “Hmm, got it.” 

There wasn’t really anything to tidy up, she just took the tablet 

with her. 

Arrived at the destination, found it was a golf club. 

Reginald went to change clothes, Adelaide and Nathan were 

together. 

Nathan ordered two coffees, one for her and one for himself. 

Adelaide said “thank you,” took a sip, and felt refreshed. She 

then asked, “Mr. Hurst, who is Mr. Thorton going to discuss the 

project with this time?”
