Chapter 1118

“Tsk, worrying about Reynaldo, just say it straight. Really, one mouth harder than the other.” Johnathan complained and then hurried out, possibly really worried that Reynaldo would faint on the side of the road.

I sighed softly and sat back in my chair. Although sometimes this Johnathan can be quite annoying when he speaks, and he always likes to blame me for everything, he never mentions Reynaldo. However, venting to him about Reynaldo really improved my mood. I was really on the verge of suffocating just now, but now it’s much better.

I lowered my head and looked at the gift box on the table, a hint of complexity flashed through my mind. After a while, I opened the gift box, inside of which was a set of expensive jewelry. I pursed my lips. Just friends? Who would give such a valuable gift to an ordinary friend? Sometimes I really didn’t know how to describe "that man." Giving a gift can still make people so angry.

Feeling angry in my heart, a sudden cry came from not far away.

Chapter 1118

My heart tightened; that was Essie’s cry. I quickly got up to take a look. Vonnie was seen picking Essie up from the ground, and standing next to them were Quentin and Kimberly. It was easy to tell who made Essie cry.

Anger surged in my chest. I hurried over and took Essie from Vonnie’s arms, asking her, “What’s going on?”

Before Vonnie could even speak, Kimberly innocently said, “I just accidentally tripped over this little girl, and she started crying.”

“This kind of coquettishness is not acceptable.”

“You lied, you deliberately tripped Essie, I saw it all,” Roddy pointed at Kimberly angrily.

Kimberly chuckled and said, “Are you mistaken? She’s just a little girl. Do I need to deliberately trip her? Besides, both of you are my future nephews. I care about you so much, how could I trip you up? Children must learn well and not be influenced by adults to lie.”

I looked at her coldly. Quentin on the side kept pulling her arm, signaling her to stop talking. However, Kimberly completely ignored him, still looking at Roddy arrogantly with a teaching expression. Roddy’s face darkened with anger.

Chapter 1118

Essie stretched out her palm to show me, choking back tears as she said, “Mommy, Essie’s hand hurts so much… sniff… it hurts so much…”

I took a glance and saw that Essie’s palm was all scraped and bleeding.

Kimberly still had a teaching look on her face, smiling and saying, “Oh, just fell down, what’s the big deal? And, Ralda, not to criticize you, but your two children were really spoiled by you.”

“Hey, I saw that you couldn’t have children on your own, jealous of Ralda!” Vonnie angrily said, “Who doesn’t know that these two children are Mr. Humphrey’s pride and joy. I told you, you deliberately made Essie fall down, and her palm is bleeding. Just wait to see how Mr. Humphrey punishes you!”

Mentioning that she couldn’t have children, Kimberly’s face twisted slightly. Without waiting for her to speak, Quentin got angry first and said to Vonnie, “Do you need to use other people’s pain to stimulate others? Even if Kimberly can’t give birth, so what? We can still adopt one at that time."

“Oh, with your bad intentions, it’s better not to harm other children."

"Originally, it was a good seedling in someone else’s family, but it was twisted by you two unscrupulous people!” Vonnie sneered.

Quentin snapped, “Shut up! When did you become so talkative? It’s really annoying!”

Bang!

As soon as Quentin finished speaking, a loud slap rang out.
