Chapter 587
Reynaldo looked at me strangely and said, โYouโre not jealous of her anymore?โ
I laughed and said, โYou said you only treat her as a sister, why would I be jealous of her?โ
โOh.โ
Reynaldo responded with a dull โuh-huhโ and then started the car.
I tilted my head and chuckled, โStrange, it seems like you really want to see me jealous.โ
โNo!โ The man hummed gloomily.
Looking at his hypocritical and proud appearance, I couldnโt help but laugh.
The car had just started when Kimberlyโs phone rang again. The first time he didnโt answer. The second time, as we waited at the traffic lights, he answered with a casual tone, โJust wait a moment, Iโll be right there.โ
After the phone call, things finally calmed down on Kimberlyโs end. Seeing her so persistently calling Reynaldo, one after another, it was clear that she was in high spirits, not at all like a sick person. I didnโt say much. Anyway, now that I have reconciled with Reynaldo, itโs better to make that woman understand that I am Reynaldoโs wife and to tell her to back off in the future.
After a half-hour drive, the car stopped in front of a two-story small villa. As the car drove in, a maid came forward to greet us. โMr. Humphrey, you finally arrived. Ms. Palmer is in a lot of pain right now. Please go and see her.โ The servant said, and then glanced at me, with a somewhat complex expression.
Reynaldo got out of the car and was about to lead me inside. The servant busily said, โMr. Humphrey, itโs better for you to go up alone. Ms. Palmer is ill and quite agitated. Iโm afraid seeing this young lady will worsen her condition.โ
Reynaldoโs eyes turned cold, and his tone was chilly, โWhatโs the problem with me bringing my wife to see her? And why do you have to comment about it?โ
โI dare not,โ the servant said, taking two steps back and bowing his head. โI am just worried about Ms. Palmerโฆโ
โShe didnโt need you to worry.โ Reynaldo casually said and then led me into the villa.
I glanced at the man beside me; his cold expression was intimidating. I went to the second floor. A faint cry came from a room, sounding a bit creepy. If it werenโt for the lights in the middle of the night, Iโm afraid we would have thought there was a female ghost haunting around.
Reynaldo led me to a door. He raised his hand and knocked on it; soon, the door was pulled open from inside. Before I could fully open my eyes, I saw a slender figure throwing herself into Reynaldoโs arms. When I took a closer look, I realized it was Kimberly. What made me laugh coldly was that Kimberly, whether intentionally or unintentionally, was wearing only a white silk nightgown. The sleeping gown was as thin as a cicadaโs wings, and the spring light inside was faintly visible, and the collar was pulled down very low. She threw herself into Reynaldoโs arms and said she had no intention of seducing him. I wouldnโt believe it even if I were killed.
โReynaldo, you finally came. Iโฆ I feel so bad. My heart hurts, Reynaldoโฆโ She said with a pained expression on her face, and she also grabbed Reynaldoโs hand and placed it on her chest.
I pursed my lips and smiled at her, โKimberly, you really look uncomfortable. Shall I call a doctor for you?โ
She seemed to have never seen me, so when I suddenly spoke, it really startled her.
