“This was borrowed from Mr. Zuniga.”Â
The next second, Reginald called Nathan internally and said,Â
“Get a laptop ready for Adelaide.”Â
Adelaide was pleasantly surprised, but actually, everything sheÂ
needed was already there when she started. As for the laptop,Â
it’s definitely not as convenient for designers as desktops. SoÂ
Adelaide didn’t even think about preparing one.Â
Who would have thought she had to run to the office so oftenÂ
now.Â
“No need.“”Â
“No freebies, are you stupid?” Reginald snapped at her.Â
Adelaide pursed her lips, Okay, she would.Â
Nathan brought in the new computer quickly, while Mr.Â
Zuniga’s computer was taken back. But Adelaide will definitelyÂ
take some time to figure out the new computer.Â
So, she sat on the sofa, focused on tinkering. Reginald was doingÂ
his own thing, and they didn’t talk, but the atmosphere wasÂ
quite harmonious.Â

Adelaide was only able to return to her desk to work after theÂ
team had a last–minute meeting.Â
But then Reginald got another call from his mother.Â
“You gotta be honest with me, were you dating Adelaide?”Â
Nyasia asked in a serious tone.Â
“It’s coming soon!””Â
“Is it fast?” Nyasia’s voice suddenly became sharp, “Is AdrianaÂ
not okay?”Â
“You like it, you marry it.”Â
“I’m your mom! I’m a woman!” Nyasia almost rolled her eyes.Â
“You liking it doesn’t mean I like it,” Reginald said impatiently, “Three strikes, Mom. If there’s a next time, I’ll just get a greenÂ
card and not come back.”Â
“You!” Nyasia was furious, truly fearing Reginald’s threat. “Fine,Â
fine, I can’t control you, but someone can.”Â
The phone was hung up by Nyasia.Â
As for the people she mentioned, Reginald didn’t care much, justÂ
his grandpa and Byron.Â

Chapter179Â
Near the end of the workday, Adelaide got a call from CierraÂ
with some bad news.Â
Anderson left ten minutes ago.Â
How she got into Reginald’s car, and how Reginald ended upÂ
accompanying her to the Schmitt’s villa, she had alreadyÂ
forgotten. Right now, all she could think about were thoseÂ
memories of Anderson taking her there.Â
There aren’t many people who are truly good to Adelaide.Â
Anderson was calculating.Â
Adding to what Garrett did to her before, it caused her to loseÂ
contact with the teacher for so long. She has always felt guiltyÂ
about Anderson.Â
She hasn’t done what she promised to do.Â
Unconsciously, her eyes filled with tears.Â
Reginald handed Adelaide a tissue on the side, she took it andÂ
whispered thank you.Â
“This illness is very painful, passing away earlier is also a reliefÂ
for the elderly,” said Reginald.Â
“I know!” Adelaide had already looked up pancreatic cancer.Â
Chapter179Â
Arriving at the Schmitt’s villa, there were cars parked outsideÂ
and along the road. She and Reginald walked a short distanceÂ
before going in.Â
There was crying everywhere.Â
The first thing that caught my eye was Ethen and others, asÂ
well as some singing teachers who are famous in the singingÂ
world but not in the same field as her.Â
Adelaide didn’t care about the surprised looks they wereÂ
getting, but who would have thought that when she turnedÂ
into the living room, she saw Garrett.Â
Garrett saw her and stopped talking to the people around him.Â
He wanted to walk over with a smile, but when he sawÂ
Reginald next to her, his handsome face immediately darkened.Â
There were a lot of people here, so Garrett had to quicklyÂ
change back to a gentle expression: “Adele, I’ll accompanyÂ
you….Â
Adelaide didn’t even look at him, “Mr. Thorton, let’s go upstairs.”Â
She knew the Schmitt’s villa better than anyone, still neededÂ
him to show the way, sick.Â
