She panicked for a moment, before she could dodge to the side, she was grabbed and pushed down onto the sofa chair.
“I was wrong, I promise I won’t say that Ms. Walton is your fiancee anymore, you have no relationship with her at all.”
Reginald thought she was admitting her mistake now, it’s just
unnecessary.
Made it seem like he really had something with Laney.
“We never had a relationship!” his voice squeezed out from
between his teeth, heavy and serious.
She turned her head away, nodding frantically, “I know, I know,
it’s okay, it’s okay!”
From this angle, Adelaide’s jawline was flowing and her profile
features were delicate and pretty. At that moment, she had her
eyes tightly shut, with a slightly exaggerated nervous
expression. In Reginald’s eyes, this scene was overly cute.
Reason told him, There were nine days left.
Reginald took a deep breath and stood up, “Similar things won’t
happen again in the future. And, Mr. Schmitt’s son has already

shown some signs.”
Reginald changed the subject too quickly, but Adelaide quickly caught up.
Because of this news, she forgot that she was just in a tense
state. She urgently asked, “Really? In Briola? Do you have a
contact?”
“In a small town in Eglium, I had someone look for and inform
Mr. Schmitt’s son about the situation. His son refused to bring
his wife and children back to the country to see Mr. Schmitt one
last time.”

Adelaide’s heart sank, and she was even more puzzled.
What kind of grudges can a family have? How can they end up
not seeing each other until death?
Reginald said, “You should go ask Mrs. Schmitt, her son has
disappeared now.”
She sighed, “I hinted before, Mrs. Schmitt said when he died.”
“That was tough.”
Adelaide not only found it difficult, but also felt guilty towards
her teacher. She didn’t want her teacher to pass away with
regrets.

Thinking about this, she asked, “Mr. Thorton, do you have a
way to contact you?”
“I’ll get back to you.”
“Okay, thanks.” Adelaide wasn’t sure she could convince, but at least she needed to figure out what the reason was.
At that moment, Reginald’s phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID, his face fell, and he stood up and said
to Adelaide, “Draw your picture.”
With that, he went into the inner room.
Adelaide frowned, and had to draw pictures here again.
Stay here for a few more days, and rumors will definitely start
spreading.
Reginald… on purpose, right?
Adelaide was frowning, but she had to sit down and draw for
now.
She didn’t want to, but her phone rang.
It was Teresa who called.
She couldn’t help but get nervous, and immediately answered,
“Tess, what’s wrong?”
Chapter 154
“Adele, that Leonard guy contacted me, guess what happened,” Teresa said, her voice serious and excited.
Adelaide was curious, “What’s wrong with him?”
Teresa: “Amanda almost hit him and killed him!”
Adelaide was shocked for a full ten seconds.
Since that night, Amanda has no idea how Leonard has been
involved with her.
Amanda really went after him, it seemed very intense.
“How many times did he call you?” she asked.
“No money for hospitalization, he asked me to tell you, can you
lend him some money. He can exchange it with one of
Amanda’s secrets.” Teresa was speechless for a few seconds,
“Are you going to lend?”
Adelaide nodded and said, “Sure.”
“Do you have money to lend?”
“I still have some money on hand. We’ll see later. If it’s not
enough, you can borrow some from me.”
