Chapter 673

Esmeralda, why were your lies always so many? Why was your heart always so selfish and malicious?

“Why don’t you ever believe me?” I cried out to him. “Who says a father will always love his own child? My dad has changed a long time ago. This matching report is fake, my dad’s words are also fake—all fake, all traps!”

“I also want to believe you.”

Reynaldo’s eyes turned red again, with tears welling up in them.

He clenched his hands tightly to his sides, with a look of pain mixed with despair. “But I don’t know how else to reach out to you. This time it was my mother who died.”

I opened my mouth, but I didn’t know what else to say.

The fact before him was that I pitied my own relatives, stole his mother’s kidney source, and caused his mother to die on the operating table.

And I, without even the evidence to explain.

Reynaldo took two steps back, leaning against the desk, his crimson eyes gazing at me deeply.

“Okay, I’ll give you one last chance.”

I looked at him, bit my lip, and didn’t let myself cry.

He said, “I will invite all of them over right now. If anyone can prove that you really didn’t know it was my mother’s kidney source, then I will believe you are innocent.”

He said this sentence very calmly, but there was a hint of anticipation in his tone, hoping that I was truly innocent.

So, did he really want to believe me?

An hour later, the sound of brakes could be heard downstairs.

At this moment, the sky had already turned completely dark, and the headlights shone on Reynaldo.

He had been standing by the window for an hour.

During that hour, he didn’t say a word to me, and the room felt terribly oppressive.

Before long, footsteps could be heard coming from the corridor outside.

The footsteps were chaotic, as if many people had arrived.

For some reason, my heart suddenly became fearful.

Because I was not sure who can prove that I am innocent in the current situation.

The door was quickly pushed open by someone.

The first to come in was Braylon. “Mr. Humphrey, I have brought everyone, except for Dr. Laurent from Ormond Hospital, who is still performing surgery on Mrs. Duffy.”

All day long, my mother’s surgery had not finished yet.

Reynaldo didn’t look at me; he just nodded at Braylon.

The next second, people outside walked in.

There was my dad, there was Quentin, and there was Quentin’s girlfriend, Kimora, and even the two drivers transporting the kidney source.

“Ralda…”

Quentin saw me and hurried over, grabbing my hand and asking, “Are you okay? Why are your eyes so red? Did Reynaldo do something to you?”

Quentin said, looking me up and down anxiously, as if he thought Reynaldo had laid a hand on me.

Originally, my heart was full of fear, but at the moment I saw Quentin, my heart calmed down a bit.

I choked out to him, “Quentin, we don’t know if that kidney source is from his mother, do we? I have no idea at all.”

Quentin patted my back to comfort me, but he didn’t say anything.

I looked at my dad again, and what’s funny is that he avoided my gaze, not daring to look me in the eye.

Reynaldo sat down on the chair.

His cold and sinister eyes first looked towards the two drivers.

“So, you casually gave away the kidney that should have belonged to my mother?”

Even though Reynaldo was exhausted at the moment, the cool voice still carried a daunting pressure.
