Chapter144
Reginald hummed lightly, “Took me so many years to realize
this was wrong?”
Her eyes flickered and she didn’t respond.
Because she felt that if you love someone, then you should learn to be understanding.
“Not too late,” Reginald took a puff, his mouth full of sweetness.
“Not to be controlled for a lifetime.”
“That’s why they didn’t want me to play with Ms. Sampson.”
“Huh, they were no match for us.”
Adelaide laughed, “If you said this to Ms. Sampson in person, she
would be over the moon.”
“Yeah, I’ll say it to her face next time.“”
The steamed chicken was served quickly.
After eating, they went back to the group.
Adelaide put on her name tag and sat down, and Mara came over right away. She couldn’t wait to share some gossip with her, “Our boss’s fiancee just arrived.”
Chapter144
When she heard the words “fiancee“, she clearly hesitated, “Mr.
Thorton has a fiancee?”
After seeing her reaction, Mara was satisfied and then corrected
with a smile, “It wasn’t admitted by the boss, but claimed by the
lady herself.”
Adelaide quickly realized that Mara had just said that on
purpose, she blushed and felt extremely embarrassed, “Ms.
Ortega, I think you misunderstood.”
Mara closed her eyes and nodded, looking meaningful. “Hmm,
well, misunderstandings happen. So, do you want to keep
listening to gossip?”
Adelaide was at a loss, she found the soldiers Reginald brought
out, really looked a bit like him, cunning.
“Okay, you go on.”
“That lady is Laney Walton, the little princess of the Walton
family from Koblax. The Walton family and the Thorton family
were planning to arrange a marriage, and Laney came to
Evercrest specifically to meet our boss,” Mara said, before
changing the subject.
“But I’m sure she was going to cry back to Koblax.“”
Adelaide’s mind was full of the four words the Walton family
from Koblax at the moment.
Chapter144
The first time I heard it was from Reginald.
When he mentioned the Walton family of Koblax back then, that feeling of disgust was impossible to ignore.
“Ms. Pierce?” Mara shook her arm.
Adelaide quickly snapped back, saying, “Ms. Ortega, let’s not
jump to conclusions. Mr. Thorton might have just fallen for Ms.
Walton at first sight.”
Mara’s expression went from shocked to embarrassed in a
second, then she opened her mouth and looked up behind
Adelaide.
Seeing her rapidly changing expression, Adelaide had a really
bad feeling.
Next, she was covered in goosebumps.
It was as if there were wolves and tigers behind me.
The next second, she heard someone’s sarcastic voice in her ear: “Ms. Pierce knows me so well, she actually believes I would fall
in love at first sight with Ms. Walton.”
Mara ran away at an amazing speed.
Other colleagues also instinctively lowered their heads, making
themselves look very busy.

Adelaide was so unlucky, she felt like crying but couldn’t shed a
tear.
If she had known that when Ms. Ortega asked her if she wanted to hear gossip, she should have just said no!
“Mr. Thorton, that…”
“Bring your tablet to my office,” Reginald said, then walked
away.
Without the boss’s bad mood, colleagues all looked at Adelaide with sympathy in their eyes.
Mara covered her face, full of acting traces, “Dear Ms. Pierce, it’s all my fault.”
Others also gave vivid expressions to match.
A group of drama queens…
Carrying a tablet, Adelaide reluctantly walked into the office.
Reginald was sitting at his desk, holding a new document that
Nathan had just brought in. As he approached, she
unexpectedly noticed the man’s thick, curly eyelashes…
