Last night, the news that Adelaide almost got killed in the company’s underground parking lot spread throughout the whole company.
Reginald didn’t hide anything, he just wanted everyone to take
it as a warning and shorten the overtime in the company.
As soon as this news came out, Adelaide became everyone’s hero instead.
After the meeting, when she came back, there were at least twenty cups of milk tea and coffee, as well as delicate desserts and snacks on her desk.
She was unbelievable.
Nathan kindly came over to tell her, “Because of what you did last night, Mr. Thorton changed the overtime hours for all departments, so they appreciate you, and sent their thanks and appreciation.”
“Hehe, excuse me for asking.” Adelaide covered her mouth and whispered, “So, am I also becoming the most disliked person by those executives?”
Nathan gave her a look that you can judge for yourself.
Adelaide pursed her lips like a catfish and gave a thumbs up.
At noon, Reginald had a lunch appointment he couldn’t miss. He followed through on what he said yesterday and brought Adelaide along.
Adelaide tried to resist this, but Reginald didn’t give her a
chance.
Walked into the private room, everyone was basically there.
Looking around, Adelaide actually knew all these faces.
Reginald sat in the main seat, casually pulled back the chair
next to him, and gave Adelaide a look.
No way, with all eyes on her, she had no choice but to sit down.
And Nathan was sitting on her right side.
These bosses, you look at me, I look at you. Both of us confirmed
one thing in our hearts, that Reginald really cares about
Adelaide.
The conversation was all about how to plan and design the
highly anticipated plots of land at Evercrest. It sounded like
Reginald had already secured them, and now all the big shots
were pulling out all the stops to get a piece of the action.
She was totally unnecessary at this occasion.
The boss kept talking non–stop, while Adelaide was quietly eating. Suddenly, a hand on her left side caught her attention. It was Reginald using chopsticks to pick up duck meat and put it
in her bowl.
Adelaide’s pupils were shaking, what was he doing!
No doubt, everyone was as still as a statue, only Nathan was calm as a cucumber.
Reginald saw the boss stop talking and asked, “Are you done?”
The boss awkwardly came to his senses, cleared his throat, and continued speaking.
Adelaide slightly turned her face away and stared at him, Are you crazy?!
Reginald had a smile on his face, as if what he had just done was no big deal.
But from his face, Adelaide could tell he was out for revenge.
Yeah, she also retaliated for what she promised Nyasia yesterday.
She was in the wrong, so she turned her face away and continued eating.
Chapter167
Back in the day, Reginald would have left halfway through, he was so bored. But seeing Adelaide enjoying the food here, he
just sat there listening and watching her eat.
After the dinner party, Adelaide was also approached. She was
told that if there were any architectural designs in the future,
they could communicate, and even received a lot of business
cards.
Adelaide had to take the business card and when she left with
Reginald, she took the initiative to show the business card, “Mr.
Thorton, these business cards.”
“Keep it, you might need it.”
“She shouldn’t need it. She’s just a designer, not her area to talk
business, so getting these business cards is pointless.“”
