Chapter 1248

Later, Braylon reported to me that you had come to the hospital.

โ€œI suddenly thought that Matthew might want to kill Kimberly, so I hurried overโ€ฆโ€

Reynaldo nodded and said, โ€œBraylon has already told me the details. Luckily you arrived in time; otherwise, Kimberly would have died, and Matthew would have definitely used this opportunity to kill Johnathan.โ€

He paused, and then his eyes suddenly dimmed again.

He held my hand tightly and whispered, โ€œYou clearly hate Kimberly so much, but for Johnathan, youโ€ฆโ€

โ€œItโ€™s nothing, just temporarily saving her life.โ€

Compared to her miserable life, Johnathanโ€™s life was much more precious, so it was not worth it for Johnathan to bury her.

โ€œWeโ€™ll save Johnathan first, and then it wonโ€™t be too late to deal with her.โ€

Reynaldo pursed his lips and didnโ€™t say anything more, just led me toward the parking lot.

He said, โ€œI have already contacted the lawyer; we are going to jail to see Johnathan now.โ€

I stared at him for a moment and asked, โ€œIs there a way to save Johnathan?โ€

Reynaldo fell silent for a second, rubbing my hair and saying, โ€œYou donโ€™t need to worry; itโ€™s not difficult, just a matter of agreeing to Matthewโ€™s terms.โ€

When Reynaldo said this, his tone was light and cheerful.

But my heart still felt a little heavy.

Just as I guessed earlier, Matthew was all-powerful abroad, lacking nothing.

What he wanted was nothing but revenge on Reynaldo, to take Reynaldoโ€™s life.

So, what if the conditions set by Matthew were Reynaldoโ€™s fate?

Thinking of this, I couldnโ€™t help but tightly hold his hand.

Reynaldo paused for a moment, lowered his gaze, and looked at me, โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong?โ€

I shook my head and smiled, โ€œItโ€™s nothing, just hoping youโ€™re doing well, too.โ€

Johnathan, we need to save you, but you also must be okay.

Reynaldo looked at me deeply for a while, then nodded heavily and said, โ€œHmm.โ€

The weather today was not very good, overcast, and there was a cold wind blowing.

The leaves on the roadside had turned yellow, and when the cold wind blew, they fell to the ground, looking very desolate.

When I arrived at the jail with Reynaldo, the lawyer was already waiting at the jail door.

Actually, Johnathan stabbed Kimberly in public this time, and he injured her quite severely.

Plus the publicity and Matthewโ€™s manipulation behind the scenes, lawyers are basically useless.

But on the way, Reynaldo explained to me that visits had to be approved by the lawyer before entering.

I just realized, no wonder when Gracie came over at noon, the person at the door wouldnโ€™t let her in.

โ€œMr. Humphrey, you have arrived,โ€ the lawyer greeted Reynaldo first, then led us inside.

He said that all the application procedures had been completed, and he could go in for a visit directly.

The jail was very dark.

Even with the lights on, it still felt dim and gloomy.

When I entered with Reynaldo, I immediately saw Johnathan.

He sat on the other side of the glass wall, with handcuffs on his hands, and police officers guarding on both sides.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked completely dejected.

He only brightened up slightly when he saw me coming with Reynaldo, but quickly dimmed again.

Reynaldo and I sat on this side of the glass wall.

Reynaldo first glanced at him, then picked up the phone on the table.

After he picked up the phone, Johnathan also picked up the phone.
