“I didn’t……” Garrett explained his injury.
Reginald bent down and whispered in her ear, “He said you hate
smoking the most.”
Adelaide coldly stared at Garrett and said, “You think I hate
people who smoke, get your facts straight and stop spreading
rumors.”

With that, she changed the subject: “Let’s go, Mr. Thorton.”
Reginald put out the cigarette, threw it in the trash can, and then went back to the Schmitt’s villa with Adelaide.
Garrett’s pupils were wide open, full of resentment, anger, and
unwillingness.
She actually yelled at him and threatened him for another man.
He used to be the one she protected without hesitation.
He said sorry countless times, regretted, realized his mistake, but why won’t Adelaide forgive him? She would rather turn to another man’s arms than think about the bond between them.
Just because of his identity, he and Reginald are like night and

When did she become so vain, Adelaide?
As Adelaide approached the Schmitt’s villa, someone walked up
to her and said, “Ms. Pierce, hello, we are from the funeral
company, you can call me Darren.”
Adelaide took the business card, surprised by how efficient
Teresa was.

also arrived here with some white chrysanthemums.

around, but couldn’t find Reginald anywhere. Just when she

A strong thought flashed through her mind.
She walked to the driver’s side, reached out, click – the door

She gently opened the car door, just as she was about to stick her head in, the figure inside sat up. Someone’s features left a lingering shadow, and her nose even brushed against the other
person’s face.
The brief touch startled Adelaide.
“Hmm?” Reginald’s voice was hoarse.
Adelaide’s pupils shrank for a moment, her brain’s strings tightened instantly, she took two quick breaths, pretended to be calm and said, “Mr. Thorton, why are you still here? It’s late, you should go back and rest. I’m afraid I’ll have to take a leave these
