Chapter 144

“Oh…” Lavonne exclaimed, as if a sudden realization dawned on her. After a moment, she continued, “He didn’t actually ask me, so I had no idea you would call so suddenly.”

As soon as I saw the number, I knew it was you. Luckily, I hadn't made any notes. You called, and I quickly left, intending to find a quiet spot to answer, but unexpectedly, he stopped me. So I deliberately didn't answer, but unbeknownst to me, you called again.

Listening to Lavonne’s words, a dumbfounded expression spread across my face. I hadn’t acted quickly enough.

Lavonne said, “Reynaldo was so scary. I didn’t answer; he just kept staring at me.” After you hung up, he forced me to call you back. Luckily, I reacted quickly and pretended it was a call from a real estate agent.

But he was so quick; just as I was about to hang up, he snatched the phone.

“Hey, Ralda, I saw Reynaldo today, and it felt like he’d changed again.”

“Changed again? What do you mean?”

I couldn’t say for sure, but I always felt this man was becoming more and more gloomy. And when he appeared, it was… he had gone mad. In short, it was truly terrifying.

Ralda, this kind of person has always been extreme. You must never let him find you; otherwise, I'm afraid he will harm you. Also, let’s not contact each other for a while, just in case this happens again.

“Okay.”

Is it getting gloomier? I suddenly remembered seeing him yesterday at the Inpatient Department entrance, dressed in black, exuding a chilling aura.

Indeed, as Lavonne said, he was very scary. Even with his handsome appearance and noble demeanor, he remained intimidating. Did my sudden departure this time truly cross a line? Otherwise, why would he become so terrifying?

But now that I've escaped, I simply dare not return, nor do I dare to see him. I was also afraid he would discover the baby in my stomach. This was my greatest fear. So now, no matter what, I cannot go back. I only hope Reynaldo forgets about my existence as soon as possible.

My mood was instantly disturbed by Reynaldo. Now, whenever I close my eyes, all I see is Reynaldo’s gloomy and terrifying appearance. I even faintly heard him say that he wanted to kill me.

Oh no! What should I do? I couldn’t even imagine what would happen if I ever fell into his hands. If I hadn’t been pregnant, I would have obediently returned to him and apologized, no matter how he punished me. Now there are two more babies.

Oh! While I was sighing, my phone rang again. It was a string of unfamiliar numbers. As I looked at that unfamiliar number, my heart skipped a beat. That number looks so familiar; it seems to be Reynaldo’s number!

It seems Reynaldo still doubted I was the one who called Lavonne. Sure enough, this man wasn’t easily fooled. I stared at the constantly ringing phone, but I didn’t dare answer.

Chapter 144

I was particularly afraid to hear his gloomy voice now. I was already very afraid of him; if he threatened me again, I would most likely be scared and obediently run back. So, I didn’t answer the phone, letting him stew in his anger. As long as I didn’t answer his call, I wouldn’t hear his threats and wouldn’t be afraid.

With that thought in mind, I silenced my phone and tossed it aside. I don’t know how long it had been, but the phone screen dimmed. I took a glance at it. Wow, that man actually called me eight times!

Even through the phone, I could deeply feel his terrifying stubbornness. Really, can’t he just leave me alone and live his own life properly? He kept chasing after me like this, tormenting himself, didn’t he? Indeed, the most terrifying individuals are those who are paranoid, unwilling to spare even themselves.

Just as I was thinking, a message arrived. Sent by Reynaldo.

Before tomorrow, you had better return to me, otherwise you don’t need to appear in front of me anymore. If I see you again, I will 2000% definitely kill you!

Even through the phone, I could feel the sinister viciousness of that man in that message. I held my phone tightly and dared not reply.
