Teresa asked, “What else did he say?”Â
“He said if I didn’t want to go abroad, it’s okay to stay atÂ
Evercrest. He wanted me to move there and live with him.”Â
Teresa was upset, “Why doesn’t he just die?!”Â
Adelaide took another bite of lamb skewers, “That villa wasÂ
renovated just like I told him when I was eighteen.”Â
Teresa was a bit surprised, then said seriously, “Adele, this bigÂ
flat, Reginald decorated it in the style you like now.”Â
Even though she didn’t have any concrete evidence, but theÂ
moment she saw the room, she was absolutely sure she couldn’tÂ
be wrong.Â
Spencer fulfilled Adelaide’s dream when she was eighteen, andÂ
she still remembers that Adelaide used to love mango mille-Â
feuille the most.Â
Things that people like don’t always stay liked forever.Â
Adelaide doesn’t like creamy style anymore, she’s into lightÂ
French now. And she’s not into mango mille–feuille anymore,Â
she’s into blueberries now.Â

Adelaide tried to get what she wanted, what she used to desire,Â
to win her affection.Â
In fact, he only stayed at his past knowledge of Adelaide, thinking he knew it all.Â
Adelaide muttered, “I just can’t understand how he could turn me from a sister into a woman.”Â
Even if they’re not blood–related, sibling relationships are always strong.Â
Teresa said, “You must have lost your mind.”Â
It seems like… explained like this.Â
“What are you going to do?” Teresa asked in response to the initial question.Â
“I haven’t decided yet.” Adelaide doesn’t want to tell TeresaÂ
about her plan to leave Evercrest for now, because she doesn’tÂ
know what will happen next.Â
“Why not ask Reginald for help?” Teresa said, “With his skills,Â
he can easily handle Spencer and keep him from botheringÂ
you.”Â
Adelaide put down the bamboo skewer in her hand and saidÂ
solemnly, “Tonight Spencer had someone crash into Reginald’sÂ
car at all costs.“”Â

Upon hearing this, Teresa’s eyes widened in shock.Â
Adelaide’s mouth twitched slightly, with a bitter smile, “Do youÂ
also think he’s gone crazy?”Â
“Was he… that crazy?”Â
She shrugged, pretended to be casual, and took a sip of wine.Â
“So I really didn’t know what to do for now,” Adelaide saidÂ
wearily, “I need a few days to think.”Â
Talking about this, Teresa didn’t want to ask anything else.Â
After finishing supper, while Adelaide was taking a shower,Â
Teresa stood on the balcony and made a phone call.Â
“Ms. Nina, can we meet up tomorrow for a chat?”Â
The next day, Teresa got up early and made breakfast. She ateÂ
with Adelaide. Adelaide wanted to give her a ride, but TeresaÂ
said she had already called a car and urged her to go to workÂ
and not to worry about her.Â
Teresa hadn’t even left the Sterling Estates when Nathan slowlyÂ
approached from a distance.Â
“Good morning, Ms. Sampson.”Â
ChapterÂ
Teresa met him and nodded, “Mr. Hurst, good morning.”Â
Nathan gave a slight smile and said, “Mr. Thorton told me toÂ
take Ms. Sampson home, so here I am, Ms. Sampson.”Â
She was not hesitant, she agreed readily.Â
After getting in the car, Teresa took the initiative and said, “IsÂ
Mr. Thorton still going to ask me about last night’s events?”Â
“Mr. Thorton wanted to know what Ms. Pierce’s attitudeÂ
towards Spencer is now,” Nathan explained tactfully.Â
Teresa squinted and asked, “I’m just curious, what’s Mr.Â
Thorton’s attitude towards my niece Adele?”Â
At the same time, Adelaide was getting ready to leave andÂ
suddenly sneezed.Â
Then her phone rang.Â
The caller ID showed Finley’s secretary.Â
Adelaide’s expression turned serious, and she chose to answerÂ
the call.Â
