Chapter57
Nathan did as he was told, placing the person on the sofa.
The hotel cleaner tidied up the coffee table, the Murray family arrived, and after thanking them, they took the drunk Abigail away. Nathan also left at some point, now there are only the two of them in the room.
Adelaide wasn’t feeling well now because she hadn’t changed her wet clothes yet, sticking to her body. And she was still wearing a bathrobe, the room was quite hot and stuffy.
She didn’t show any discomfort, pretending to ask casually, “Mr. Thorton, you said you wanted to talk to me about the project…”
Reginald saw her blushing, and his throat involuntarily tightened.
The next second he got up and said, “Not interested, go to sleep.”
Adelaide heard the door close and she raised her eyebrows suspiciously, thinking, Why did he sit there for so long if he
didn’t want to chat?
The next day, Adelaide was startled by the sudden ringing of
her phone, jumping up in a panic.
Picked up my phone, first thing I saw was Reginald on the caller ID.
Look at the time: six o’clock.
She was about to curse someone!!!
She answered the phone, holding back her emotions, and politely asked, “Mr. Thorton, is there something urgent so early in the morning?”
“I got up, changed into running clothes, and waited for you outside the door.”
“Huh??” Adelaide’s eyes cleared a bit, “Why?”
“Morning run.”
“Why go for a morning run?”
“The agreement was, I say, you do.”
Adelaide choked, cursing him again in her heart.
But there was no choice, she had to get up and wash up, put on
the only hoodie set she brought.
Reginald, dressed in sportswear, stood there, not knowing how
long he had been waiting.
Chapters?
Reginald looked her up and down, Adelaide saw the meaning in
his eyes, and said, “You didn’t tell me you had to go on a business
trip and still go for a morning run.”
“As long as you can run, let’s go.”
Adelaide followed him to a nearby park with a blank
expression on her face.
There were quite a few people jogging here in the morning, and
the traffic wasn’t too heavy at this time. It was quiet enough.
Adelaide thought Reginald was just calling her out for a
morning run, but after a few minutes, she realized he was
actually taking her on a morning run.
She couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Thorton, do you want me to go
jogging with you every morning from now on?”
“There wasn’t before, but now that you’ve said it, there is. After
you go back, make sure to come to Rosecliff Manor at six
o’clock.”
At this moment, Adelaide’s face twisted like a pretzel, “Can I say
no?”
“The agreement.” Reginald’s cold words were full of
ruthlessness.
She struggled in her dying moments, “I don’t have the habit of
morning jogging.”
“Now we have it.”
She really wants to thank him from the bottom of her heart.
Because she was just starting to run, Reginald was afraid she
couldn’t handle it,
couldn’t handle it, so she stopped after running three
kilometers.
He bought a bottle of water and came back, only to see someone still leaning against the tree, hands on hips, panting heavily
with head buried there.
Reginald was delighted and handed her the opened mineral
water, saying, “Exercising is good for you, just run a few more
times.”
She glared at him, “I didn’t want to exercise.”
“Exercise can boost physical strength.”
“I didn’t need physical strength.”
“There will always be times when physical strength is needed.”
