Chapter145
This man was good–looking, who would have thought even his
eyelashes were so nice.
As if he noticed he was being stared at, the man looked up and
met Adelaide’s gaze. “Sit down.”
Adelaide sat down obediently, “Mr. Thorton, what do you want
to talk to me about?”
“Sitting here, drawing your picture.”
“Why?” Adelaide asked incredulously, “Just because I called you
nosy earlier?”
Reginald didn’t even think about bringing it up again, but this woman just had to. He put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, his dark eyes with interest, “At first I thought you
wouldn’t adapt to the work environment so quickly, but now it
seems I was wrong.”
“You fit in very well and very quickly, you even dare to gossip
about the boss.”
“Uh.”
“Adelaide, do you think I fell in love with you at first sight, so I
Chapter145
should fall in love with every woman at first sight? Am I such a promiscuous scumbag, seeing one and falling in love with one
for sure? Do you think falling in love at first sight is a standard feature of scumbags?”
Reginald talked like a machine gun, and Adelaide’s mind was
filled with the words love at first sight at that moment.
And then her face turned red with embarrassment.
“Tell me, yes or no.“”
“…wasn’t!‘
“Very perfunctory.”
“No, it’s not,” Adelaide said slowly and seriously.
Reginald felt like punching a pillow in frustration, but he just
couldn’t get mad at the woman in front of him.
He took a deep breath and said, “Draw your picture.”
If I had to sit here drawing all afternoon, I reckon she’ll be the
main gossip subject of the whole Orvenix Group tomorrow.
Adelaide struggled a bit, “Mr. Thorton, I promise I won’t gossip
about you anymore, can I go back to drawing, please?”
Reginald looked cool and said, “No way!”

“I went over there and sat on the sofa to draw“”
“Sit right here.”
“I can’t draw your face.”
Adelaide almost blurted out, then she froze.
Reginald squinted and said, “Why can’t you draw my face?
Why can’t you draw it?”
Adelaide’s eyes flickered away, “as if you were sitting in front of
the principal during an exam.”
“And then?”
And then what?! Adelaide stayed calm and replied, “Too much
pressure. When there’s pressure, I can’t relax. If I can’t relax,
then my mind goes blank, and I can’t draw.”
Reginald smirked and said, “Just don’t treat me like a guidance
counselor, okay?”
Adelaide: “………
“I
Suddenly felt a bit unable to communicate with him normally.
Reginald’s mood improved and he found it fun to tease her.
With a lift of his chin, he said, “If the drawing isn’t finished, then stay and work overtime to finish it. Don’t blame me if it delays
you from going to the Schmitt’s villa.”
No wonder he’s a capitalist!
Adelaide accepted her fate, picked up the stylus, and silently thought to herself that the person sitting across from her was not Reginald, but a statue.
When Reginald suddenly and incredulously asked, “Do you need to pray before drawing a design?” just as I was about to successfully hypnotize myself.

It’s ruined.
“Yeah, having faith is great.” He nodded, showing his approval
of her actions.
Adelaide stood up and said, “Mr. Thorton, I’m going to get a glass
of water, I’m thirsty.”
Reginald’s mouth curved into a smile, “Go ahead.”
Adelaide couldn’t stop thinking about how to avoid sitting in
the office and having to work face to face with him.
Feeling sad and sighing, she opened the office door.
