Chapter44 In that moment , Adelaide's shoulders were tense , her nails . almost digging into her flesh . He pretended to be fine in front of Teresa . Why is it that whenever I face him , I always feel wronged by just one of his words? She bit her lip , trying hard not to let the tears.fall . " After going back to the room to take a shower , I'll sleep well ." With that , he turned around and left . Adelaide seemed to anticipate what he was about to do , and immediately grabbed his hand , " Reginald ! " Reginald turned around and saw her eyes slightly red , tears swirling in her eyes , his handsome face suddenly cold . He angrily said , " What were you thinking ? If you had asked me for help , would I have let you go back to the Pierce's place alone ? " " Oh, you wanna come with me to the Pierce's place and have my back ? " Adelaide looked up , determined not to let the tears fall . " What do you think ? " he said impatiently . Adelaide suddenly exclaimed , " He looks for women , I look for men , we are a perfect match ." " Matching my ass ! " Reginald's eyes twitched , his voice squeezing out from between his teeth . Adelaide was taken aback when he spoke so harshly for the first time . Reginald furrowed his brow , calmed down his anger . But the next second , he reached out and wiped away the tear about to fall from the corner of her left eye with the pad of his thumb . A brief touch , Adelaide forgot how harsh he had just spoken , his heart skipped a beat , and he couldn't help but step back . Almost at the same time , Reginald grabbed the door frame with his other hand , as if trapping her within this space . " Spill it , how bad is it ? If you don't tell me , then I'll have to go to the Pierce's place myself and find out ." Adelaide could only say , " Finley drugged Garrett , and he hooked up with Amanda . " Reginald sneered , " Oh really ? And then what ? " " We have signed the divorce agreement . " This news was really good for Reginald . He said , " Should I congratulate you then ? " Adelaide looked at him and said , " Thank you . " Reginald squinted , " You seem to regret signing . " " No. " " Why were you in such a hurry when he went to the airport ? " Adelaide paused , then gave him a look that said , " He ran abroad . If he doesn't come back after the cooling - off period , then the divorce agreement can be invalidated . Should I be worried ? " Reginald really had no idea about this , after all , he had never been married , let alone bother to understand marriage laws . After a while , he cleared his throat and said , " I'll go bring the person back ." " The Barnard family will catch . " Adelaide was too tired to deal with him anymore . " Mr. Thorton , can I go back to the house to take a shower and sleep ? " Knowing that she was very tired , Reginald nodded .. " Good night , Mr. Thornton , " Adelaide entered the room . " Wait a minute , " Reginald didn't immediately ask her to close the door , " Get ready , we're going on a business trip to Eldoria at nine tomorrow morning ." After saying that , without waiting for Adelaide to ask anything , he had already helped her close the door . Adelaide was tiredly lying on the sofa , and she called Teresa back to say she was safe . She called , Teresa's heart dropped . " As long as you're home safe ." " Reginald just told me I have to go on a business trip to Eldoria tomorrow . I don't know how many days I'll be gone . Don't worry about me ." Chapterds Chapter45
