Chapter 1088

โ€œRalda, why did you have to say that about me?โ€ Quentinโ€™s voice sounded extremely sad.

I just laughed, looking at the ceiling, laughing coldly and mockingly.

Fake, they all were fake to the extreme.

Quentin had more to say.

I impatiently said, โ€œThatโ€™s enough, Mr. Duffy. I have nothing to do with you anymore, so I hope you wonโ€™t call me to bother me again.โ€

I hung up the phone right after I finished speaking.

A few seconds later, he called again, and I immediately turned off my phone.

Feeling bored, I threw my phone aside. In the blink of an eye, I suddenly saw a figure flash by the peephole on the door.

I furrowed my brows, got up, and went over to take a look.

However, when I opened the door and looked outside, I didnโ€™t see any suspicious people. Instead, Johnathan and Vonnie were walking towards me carrying a package.

Johnathan saw me at a glance and joked, โ€œOh, Esmie, even when youโ€™re sick, you still remember to get up and greet me.โ€

Vonnie gave him a blank look and then rushed over to me in a quick step, saying, โ€œRalda, how did you get up?โ€

I shook my head and asked them, โ€œDid you see anyone suspicious just now?โ€

Vonnie was taken aback and exchanged a glance with Johnathan, saying, โ€œNo, itโ€™s quite late now; thereโ€™s no one in the elevator.โ€

Johnathan nodded, โ€œYes, no one. So, Esmie, who did you see?โ€

โ€œI just saw someone peeking at me from this peephole,โ€ I said, pointing to it on the door.

Vonnie exclaimed, โ€œCould it be that Kimberly sent someone to spy on you?โ€

Johnathan clicked his tongue and said, โ€œWhy would that woman send someone to monitor Esmie? I think the person just now must be Reynaldo. He canโ€™t let go of Esmie, so he came over to secretly watch her.โ€

I chuckled and didnโ€™t say anything, just turned around and went back to the room.

Johnathan pursed his lips and followed in with a takeout box.

He said, โ€œIf you donโ€™t believe me, Iโ€™ll give him a call to test it out.โ€

I was about to say it was unnecessary, but he quickly dialed Reynaldoโ€™s phone.

The phone rang for a few seconds and then was picked up; Johnathan put it on speaker.

โ€œWhatโ€™s the matter?โ€ Reynaldo asked in a casual tone.

Johnathan giggled and said, โ€œWhat are you doing? Do you want to come out for a drink?โ€

โ€œDonโ€™t coax the baby to sleep.โ€

I pursed my lips and smiled at Johnathan.

Johnathan was unwilling to accept it: โ€œAre you really trying to coax the baby? Then why donโ€™t you send me a couple of photos of the little one?โ€

โ€œBoring!โ€

โ€œHey, you definitely didnโ€™t coax the baby, nor were you at home.โ€

โ€œSpeak when you have something to say, otherwise hang up!โ€

โ€œHehe, just admit it, you went to see Esmie just now, didnโ€™t you?โ€

โ€œBeepโ€ฆ Beepโ€ฆโ€

However, as soon as Johnathanโ€™s words fell, a busy tone came from the phone.

Johnathan said confidently, โ€œThe person who was peeking at Esmie just now must be Reynaldo. Hmph, that guy still wonโ€™t admit it, and even says he was just playing with the kids. Iโ€™ll show him a video right now.โ€

I thought Johnathan was quite boring.

Even if it were proven that the person who was just peeking outside was Reynaldo, so what?

The point was not that I didnโ€™t believe in his love for me, but that he didnโ€™t believe in my love for him.

Vonnie handed me the packed meal and said to me, โ€œRalda, I just asked Anton, he said once your emotions stabilize, you can be discharged tomorrow.โ€
