Chapter 1036

Reynaldo’s hand on the steering wheel tightened gradually, and his knuckles were tinged with an abnormal shade of blue due to excessive force.

Yes, I almost forgot.

I was able to say such words before because I had nothing left.

Now, I had him, and two children.

Everything has changed.

He smiled at me, the same disappointed and self-deprecating smile as before.

“Didn’t care about anything?”

“Ah, Esmeralda, I have never been wrong, you just have no heart.”

Looking at the hurt in his eyes, I couldn’t help but feel a tightening in my heart, a touch of bitterness rising.

“Esmeralda…” he asked me with a smile, “How much space do I and the children occupy in your heart?”

I tugged at the hem of my clothes and looked at him intently.

The smile at the corner of his lips was deeper, but his eyes were cold.

“You always say that I am unpredictable, but what you don’t know is that I never feel any love from you.”

I felt like in your heart, everything was more important than me.

Really, Esmeralda, you put everything in front of me.

“I often wonder, without me, could you live a better life.”

He said, with a sudden hint of brokenness in his smile.

“But I can’t, without you, I simply can’t go on.”

This is the difference between you and me. I was always afraid of losing you, but you, on the other hand, didn’t care.

So, is his lack of confidence coming from this?

Is it because I expressed too little love to him?

A complex feeling surged in my heart all of a sudden.

Sometimes I even doubt myself, whether I am not suitable for loving someone, not knowing how to love someone.

Reynaldo gave me a deep look.

He chuckled and turned his head to look out the car window.

The sharp profile, however, revealed a clear sense of sadness and self-mockery.

He fell silent for a few seconds and said lightly, “I know about the snake you put in Kimberly’s locker; you wanted to avenge Vonnie.”

I watched him quietly.

He could figure this out; I was not surprised.

So...

Chapter 1006

“You were angry on set just now because I let the snake bite Kimberly, right?” I said flatly.

But he suddenly laughed at himself.

“You still don’t understand.”

No matter how much I said, you didn’t understand.

I couldn’t help but frown.

I didn’t understand anything.

He turned his head slowly, looked at me, and smiled sadly at me, “What makes me angry is that you would do anything to get revenge for Vonnie, regardless of the consequences!"

“When you put the snake in Kimberly’s locker, did you ever think that you might get bitten by that snake too?

If you were bitten, who else could save you so promptly?

In case you were gone…”

When he got to this point, his voice suddenly choked up, and he never said the rest of the words.

His eye sockets were already a deep crimson.

He should have been angry, but at that moment, he was just smiling at me, smiling with self-mockery and disappointment, and with an indescribable sense of powerlessness.

That kind of smile, like a sharp needle, pricked my heart painfully.

I couldn’t help it anymore, and I threw myself into his arms.

I said to him urgently, “It’s not like that; I didn’t disregard everything.”

In my heart, you and the children are the most important existence, surpassing everything.

Maybe I’m not very good at expressing myself, but I really care about you, really care about you.
