Chapter 1240

I slept very deeply last night. After a lot of exercise, itโ€™s good to sleep.

When I woke up, the bedroom was dark, and I didnโ€™t know what time it was. There were a few rays of light shining through the crack in the curtains. It looked like it was a cloudy day today. It seemed to be windy outside, with the sound of wind blowing dry branches and fallen leaves against the window. I rubbed my eyes and, after my head cleared a bit, I looked to the side.

Reynaldo didnโ€™t know when he got up; the seat next to him had already gone cold. However, this man is also considerate. Remember I told him that when we get up together, the warmth in my blanket disappears? Well, he put a hot water bottle at the foot of my bed. Reynaldo said he would stay at home with me and the children today, but I donโ€™t know if what he said is true.

I touched the phone on the bedside table, opened it, and found that it was already one oโ€™clock in the afternoon. Oh my, the days in winter were already short. After sleeping for more than four hours, the day was almost over. โ€œWhy didnโ€™t Reynaldo wake me up?โ€

My whole body was sore and weak. I huddled under the covers, not wanting to move at all. I didnโ€™t know if Reynaldo was at home. I opened the chat interface with him and sent him a message.

โ€œWhere are you? What are you doing?โ€

Reynaldo didnโ€™t reply to me for half a day. Thinking that he might be busy, I didnโ€™t bother him. I opened the news app and habitually scrolled through the current affairs of Freybourne.

Just the next second, I sat up abruptly from the bed, shocked as I looked at the headline of todayโ€™s news in Freybourne. Todayโ€™s headline in Freybourne was: โ€œJohnathan attempted to assassinate Kimberly, has been arrested, and the victim has been rushed to the hospital!โ€ Several photos are also included below. Johnathan viciously stabbed the knife into Kimberlyโ€™s photo. In the photo, the scene was very messy. Kimberly and Quentin were both injured, with blood on their bodies and on the ground. There is also a photo of the scene where Johnathan was grabbed by the bodyguard. The background in the photo was outside a shopping mall, surrounded by people.

Oh no, how could this happen? Wasnโ€™t Braylon always watching him? And the bodyguards that were sent over, werenโ€™t they always keeping an eye on Johnathan? So many people, how come they couldnโ€™t keep an eye on one Johnathan? I quickly looked at the time when the incident occurred. It was around eleven oโ€™clock in the morning. It has only been two hours since now.

Reynaldo, did he go to deal with this matter? I quickly put on my clothes and rushed outside.

Why is Johnathan still so impulsive? Did the online blessings for Quentin and Kimberly and the curses for Vonnie really get to him? If it werenโ€™t for Matthew, just Quentin and Kimberly alone, something like this wouldnโ€™t have happened; in this Freybourne, Reynaldo could have kept Johnathan safe and sound.

It is clear now that it was Matthewโ€™s conspiracy. This matter may not have been handled so well. I was afraid that Matthew would threaten Reynaldo with Johnathan. Alternatively, Matthew knew that Johnathan was Reynaldoโ€™s good brother, so in order to retaliate against Reynaldo, he would go all out against Johnathan.
