Chapter48Â
She pondered, wondering how much Reginald really knewÂ
about her.Â
Two hours later, Eldoria arrived.Â
For peace and quiet, Adelaide didn’t turn off airplane mode, sheÂ
just left it on.Â
Another half an hour drive, they arrived at a five–star hotel inÂ
the city center.Â
They got the key card and took the elevator up.Â
At this point, Reginald turned to her and said, “I needed to meetÂ
with two clients. Do you want to stay at the hotel or go out for aÂ
walk?”Â
At the same time, Nathan handed her a set of car keys, “It’sÂ
inconvenient to take a taxi. This is Mr. Thorton’s car parked at this hotel, a sky blue Bentley Continental. Ms. Pierce finds itÂ
more convenient to drive herself when going out.”Â
She roughly guessed that Reginald was coming to Eldoria on a business trip and bringing her along to help her gatherÂ
inspiration. She graciously took the car keys and said, “Thank you, Mr. Thorton.”Â
The elevator opened, but Reginald handed her a cellphone.Â
Adelaide was stunned.Â
He said, “Let me know how I can reach you, and keep your phone on airplane mode.”Â
“How did he know she didn’t turn on airplane mode?”Â
“Huh?”Â
If I can’t reach him later, it’s not good. Adelaide had to take the phone and thanked again, “Thank you, Mr. Thorton.”Â
“Take your time.” Reginald waved his hand and left.Â
Adelaide walked into her room with her luggage, right next to Reginald.Â
She sat on the sofa, rubbed her sore forehead, picked up the phone Reginald gave her, swiped it gently, no password…Â
You can tell someone has been using the phone.Â
But Reginald gave it to her, doesn’t mean it’s his personalÂ
phone…Â
Thinking about this, Adelaide’s eyelids twitched like crazy.Â

Oops, I woke up early just now.Â
She didn’t open any apps, but somehow she opened the contactsÂ
instead.Â
48 contacts.Â
Dad… Mom… Nathan…Â
Adelaide got more and more scared, so she quickly turned offÂ
her phone.Â
This is Reginald’s phone!Â
How could he give her his personal phone?!Â
Just then, the phone rang.Â
Adelaide was so scared she almost threw her phone, seeing theÂ
caller ID: Reginald……Â
She hesitantly answered the phone, “Mr. Thorton.”Â
“Your phone is just my spare phone. Usually, only whenÂ
someone can’t reach me will they call your phone. So don’tÂ
worry, no one will call that phone for no reason.”Â
She was so grateful to him for calling to comfort her just in time.Â
She smirked and said, “Mr. Thorton, even if it’s a spare phone,Â
this is still your personal phone. Is it really appropriate for youÂ

to give it to me?”Â
“Am I a stranger to you now?”Â
Adelaide suddenly choked and didn’t know how to respond.Â
But Reginald had already hung up the phone.Â
Just use it for answering calls, and keep it in your bag the rest ofÂ
the time. After comforting herself like this, Adelaide picked upÂ
her bag and went downstairs to the underground garage.Â
Looking around the whole garage, the sky blue BentleyÂ
Continental was easy to spot, it’s the only one like that.Â
After unlocking the car keys, Adelaide couldn’t believe that someone like Reginald would have such a fairy–like coloredÂ
luxury car.Â
Having a girly heart hidden inside doesn’t seem like a bad thingÂ
after all.Â
Just as she was about to open the car door, a woman suddenly appeared in front of her, holding a stick in front of her with both hands and said, “This is Reginald’s car, why do you haveÂ
the car keys?”Â
