Chapter 1235
Before eating, he happily said to me, "So fragrant! The dishes cooked by my wife are always delicious."
Hmm! Itโs so cheesy.
I scratched my arm, silently complaining that Reynaldo was really cheesy, but my heart was full of sweetness. However, he was also funny, Reynaldo. Before we made up, he was so arrogant, always saying that the food I cooked was ugly and tasteless. Now that we were reconciled, he was not stingy with his praise, even to the point of "talking nonsense with eyes wide open." In short, after we made up, he looked at me and everything was pleasing and beautiful in his eyes.
Before we made up, I found fault with everything about you.
The man ate quietly and politely, and soon finished all the food I had brought him. After eating, he also cleaned up the tableware. Afraid of disturbing his work, I got up and said, "Iโll go back first. Donโt just focus on being busy, take care of yourself."
However, as I was about to leave with the thermos in hand, he suddenly grabbed me. "Donโt go, stay with me a little longer."
At this moment, someone knocked on the door, as if they wanted to "report work" to him. I smiled at him and said, "Youโre busy; I might be bothering you at work."
"No," Reynaldo said decisively.
But I still wanted to leave. Later, when he got busy, I would be bored here. I might as well go back and accompany those two children. However, looking at Reynaldoโs pitiful eyes, I couldnโt bear it and ended up staying.
Reynaldo was indeed very busy, with people constantly coming in to report work, ask for his signature, and inquire about his instructions. I lay on the sofa chair next to me, feeling drowsy.
However, from their reports, I vaguely learned that Reynaldo had already investigated several forces that Matthew had hidden on this side. In just ten days, he had already uprooted all of Matthewโs forces, and several businesses that had been working with Matthew had now switched sides to join him. This was also the only good news during this period.
And the situation on Johnathanโs side was also quite stable. Braylon was always "eating and sleeping together" with Johnathan over there. He said Johnathanโs emotions had stabilized a lot; he ate on time every day, went to bed on time, and talked a lot with Vonnie. Listening to Braylonโs narrative, I also felt much more relaxed. Reynaldo probably talked to him about the consequences of impulsively killing Kimberly and the situation with Matthew, so he slowly came to his senses.
However, I still did not dare to let my guard down with Reynaldo, and I continued to have Braylon keep an eye on Johnathan at all times.
What puzzles me, though, is that the news of Quentinโs engagement to Kimberly is now all over the place, probably spread all over the world. The headlines every day were about their wedding. Kimberly was at most just a somewhat famous actress, and Quentinโs company wasnโt very big either. They were not celebrities, so why was their wedding so widely publicized? Every day, when I opened my phone, there were reports about their wedding all over the internet, as well as blessings and praises from netizens, and various voices singing praises of their beautiful love. Such a high-profile publicity stunt seemed very deliberate, almost as if it was intentionally provoking someone. Was it to provoke Zackery or to provoke Johnathan? Stimulating Zackery did them no good at all, so it is very likely to be the latter.
