Chapter 1280
“Esmeralda!”
Kimberly growled at me coldly.
I smiled at her and said, “You’d better save some energy, Matthew.”
She stared at me gloomily, not saying anything more.
I couldn’t be bothered to deal with her, as long as she could come with me to see Matthew.
I turned around and continued walking upstairs.
Looking back to see if she was keeping up, I found her constantly looking outside the door, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
I frowned and smiled at her, asking, “Who is Ms. Palmer waiting for?”
Kimberly’s eyes seemed to flicker for a moment.
She looked up and smiled at me, saying, “I was just wondering why Reynaldo didn’t come out with you to see Matthew.”
“Didn’t you always say that Reynaldo loves you? How could he bear to let you come out to see Matthew alone?”
I sneered, “Isn’t it with you? In Reynaldo’s heart, you are so cunning and powerful. With you by my side, he naturally feels at ease.”
I said this in a very sarcastic tone.
Kimberly also noticed, looking at me with a cold gaze.
I chuckled and said, “Hurry up and go upstairs, Mr. Galatea’s temper is not very good. If you keep him waiting for too long, he will get angry.”
With that, I gestured with my eyes for the bodyguard to keep an eye on Kimberly, and then headed upstairs.
Upstairs was also quiet, not even a waiter in sight.
Reynaldo and his bodyguards were ambushed somewhere, but it is not known where.
Turning a corner, I saw two bodyguards standing at the door of the private room I had reserved.
When I took Kimberly over there, the two bodyguards stopped us.
I sneered, “Did Mr. Galatea make a mistake? This private room was booked by me. In theory, I am the host and Mr. Galatea is the guest. How dare Mr. Galatea let the bodyguard stop me outside?”
As soon as I finished speaking, Matthew appeared.
He walked over slowly with a cigarette in his mouth, wearing a smug and unrestrained smile on his face.
Just, when he saw Kimberly behind me, his face immediately darkened.
“Did Ms. Duffy also make a mistake? I wanted to see Ms. Duffy, not you. What’s the meaning of bringing that thing behind you over here?”
What is that thing?
Is this a reference to Kimberly?
Wasn’t this a huge humiliation for Kimberly, who is extremely proud and quite narcissistic?
I couldn’t help but look back at Kimberly, and sure enough, I saw that the woman’s face was extremely ugly.
This way, the more Matthew treated Kimberly like this, the more Kimberly was likely to confront Matthew face to face about those shady dealings between them.
I smiled at Matthew and said, “Mr. Galatea’s words were a bit hurtful, after all, we all know each other, so what’s wrong with meeting up together?”
“It’s nothing,” Matthew blew a smoke ring, not hiding his disdain for Kimberly, and said, “It’s just that you brought that thing to stab my eyes, that’s not Ms. Duffy of you.”
“Mr. Galatea…”
Before I could even speak, Kimberly suddenly shouted at Matthew.
This sound, gloomy and eerie, was like a female ghost gritting her teeth.
There was a hint of resentment and forbearance in the way he spoke.
I reckon Kimberly was so angry she was about to spit blood.
Matthew glanced at her and a playful smile tugged at the corner of his lips, “What is it, Ms. Palmer? Do you have something to say to me?”
Upon hearing Matthew’s question, Kimberly immediately changed her expression.
