Reginald frowned, reached out, and flicked her forehead.Â
“Ah!” She was startled by this sudden surprise and exclaimed,Â
“Reginald, I’m driving, do you want us to have an accidentÂ
here?”Â
“Are you satisfied with just fifty million?” Reginald askedÂ
unhappily.Â
“No.”Â
“Think about the value of your identity as Alicia,” ReginaldÂ
reminded.Â
“I remembered.” Adelaide replied honestly.Â
Reginald got annoyed again, turned his face away, and stoppedÂ
talking.Â
Adelaide was driving, looking ahead, feeling warm and fuzzyÂ
inside.Â

After the cooling–off period began, Adelaide prayed every dayÂ
that nothing would happen.Â

Luckily, after seeing Garrett at the hospital last time, I haven’tÂ
seen him again.Â
I believe that day Cornelius must have shown up at theÂ
courthouse on time.Â
“On the day you picked up your divorce certificate, do you wantÂ
to go to the bar and have a good time?”Â
Teresa suddenly popped out, scaring Adelaide so much that sheÂ
almost swallowed her mouthwash. “You scared me!”Â
Teresa questioned, “When did you become so jumpy, or are youÂ
thinking about something inappropriate?”Â
Adelaide punched her shoulder lightly, “Let’s go celebrate afterÂ
getting the divorce papers, but today you need to accompanyÂ
me to the mall.”Â
“What did you do at the mall?”Â
“I once gave Garrett a pair of cufflinks.”Â
Upon hearing this, Teresa looked gloomy and said, “Got it.”Â
“By the way, pick up another gift!”Â
Teresa smelled gossip: “For who? For Reginald?”Â
“No.” Adelaide punched her on the shoulder again. “Reginald,Â
Chapter174Â
Reginald, Reginald, why do you always have him on yourÂ
mind?”Â
Teresa pretended to be coy and said, “Sis, this is just a reminder to hold onto a good man tightly.“”Â
Adelaide wanted to say, How do you know he’s a good guy.Â
But come to think of it, Reginald was actually pretty nice.Â
After finishing washing up, Adelaide unexpectedly received aÂ
call from Leonard.Â
She picked up the phone and asked, “Not enough money for hospitalization?”Â
Leonard said no, and then he said, “Amanda looked for me.”Â
Adelaide squinted, remembering how Leonard used to talk about his love for Amanda in front of her, gave her the creeps.Â
“You called me, not just to tell me this, right?”Â
If so, she had to think about whether to block or not.Â
“She apologized to me, saying that she had someone drive to hitÂ
me because she was afraid I would impulsively go to GarrettÂ
and expose our affair”Â
After hearing that, Adelaide’s eyelids twitched unnaturallyÂ

twice, and then she felt the urge to ghost them.Â
“I told her, I wouldn’t tell Garrett.”Â
In the end, he said, “I’m on your side, so I can’t go looking forÂ
Garrett.”Â
Adelaide calmed down, “So what are you trying to tell me?”Â
Leonard explained nonchalantly, “Amanda gave me money andÂ
even offered me a house, asking me to find a way to get close toÂ
you and sleep with you.”Â

“She said, ‘Anyway, I’m out here selling myself. You’re so pretty,Â
I’m not losing out.””Â
Adelaide had a tough punch.Â
“What did you say next?”Â
“I said I only love her, I would never sleep with anotherÂ
woman.”Â
“And then?”Â
“She stormed off.””Â
” Adelaide blinked, and her brain just shut down for aÂ
moment.Â

No, does this kid really love Amanda so much?Â
Soon after, Leonard said, “I don’t think she would give up on finding a man to try and seduce you, so be careful.”Â
“Thanks” Adelaide thought he was a bit straightforward, andÂ
his mind was quite simple. Maybe it was his first time interacting with a woman, so he fell in love uncontrollably. She couldn’t help but advise, “Leonard, maybe the next relationshipÂ
will be better.”Â
