Chapter137
She asked, “Did you really fish out Finley?”
Reginald walked ahead, glancing sideways at her, “Now you
know to ask?”
“Why?” Adelaide wasn’t angry, she knew there must be a
reason for Reginald’s sudden actions.
At this moment, Reginald had already opened the door to the
guest room, “Come in.”
Adelaide walked in.
Reginald picked up the files on the coffee table and handed
them to her, “Take a look first.”
Adelaide curiously opened the file and, after reading its
contents, her face showed horror: “He actually did that!”
“He planned to sort it out before Finley was released.”
But now he went and brought Finley out early, which messed
up Spencer’s plan.
“Adelaide, do you know why he did that?”
Listening to him ask like that, Adelaide had a ridiculous idea in
Chapter137
mind and finally struggled to say, “Because I…”
Intentionally tempted Zayne to catch her.
He deliberately designed it so that Finley was willingly
detained.
Then he was able to seize the opportunity to win over the
senior executives and make them his supporters.
She felt something was off back then, but couldn’t figure it out.
Now, Spencer wants to take over Finley’s position and become
the manager of the Hicks Group for good.
He only surpassed Finley, so he has more say in the Pierce
family. When he wants her, Finley can’t do anything about it.
After figuring it all out, Adelaide just felt stiff all over, with
chills creeping like a virus into every limb.
“Want some?” Reginald appeared out of nowhere with a small
cake and handed it to her.
Her confused mind suddenly went quiet, paused for a moment,
but still reached out and took it, “How come you…”
…Why did you prepare cupcakes in advance?
When she started to feel better, Reginald said, “The one Nathan
brought is the one you and Ms. Sampson often go to.”

“I knew,” she hadn’t gotten dizzy enough to not see the name on the packaging box.
“I’m telling you this to make you realize how dangerous he is now, and what he’s planning to do. So, whenever you see him, just steer clear of him, don’t give him a chance to be alone with
you. He’s smarter than that idiot Garrett.”

Reginald saw her silent and squinted, “What, can’t I scold you?”
Adelaide shook her head like a tambourine, “He’s no longer my
concern, Mr. Thorton, you can curse if you want.“‘
Reginald was satisfied: “After we finish the cake, let’s go.”
Adelaide thought to herself, Even though Reginald’s behavior
was a bit scary three years ago, she still felt nervous about what
he would do after signing the agreement,
But obviously, her worries didn’t come true, he always kept
their gentleman’s agreement.
Even she found out that Reginald was completely different
from the image in the rumors.
Tasted a piece of cake, it was sweet and delicious. Adelaide looked up and bravely asked, “Mr. Thorton, can you help me
find someone in Briola?”

After work, Adelaide headed straight to the Schmitt’s villa.
I chatted with Anderson for a while and told him that he would
soon receive news about his son. Anderson seemed much
happier.
After chatting, she finally got to have dinner with Cierra this
time.
“The first time you were kidnapped, and the second time Garrett was there. Phew, it’s not easy for us to have a meal together.” Cierra smiled helplessly, and kindly helped her to pick up some food. “Eat more, you look too thin.”
