Chapter 678

Pap!

Before Quentin could finish speaking, I raised my hand and slapped him hard.

Quentin’s face was turned to one side.

Time seemed to have frozen, and everything around me had also frozen.

For a long time, Quentin wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his lips and said to me sadly, “I know, I’m sorry for what I did to you.”

“So why? Why did you help them frame me?”

I grabbed his arm, crying out in sorrow and anger. “You are my own brother, you are my most trusted brother.”

“Ralda…”

Quentin looked at me, his eyes instantly turning red, his voice hoarse and choked, “I’m sorry, it’s my fault…”

“I don’t want to hear sorry, I just want to know the reason!”

I coldly cut off Quentin’s words, staring at him with sorrow and anger.

Quentin, however, clenched his lips tightly and refused to reveal the reason no matter what.

At this moment, my dad drove over. He stuck his head out of the car window and shouted to us, “Hurry up, let’s go quickly, don’t wait for Reynaldo to get angry later, he wants us to bury his mother with him.”

“Yes, Ralda, let’s leave here first and then talk,” Quentin said, pulling me towards the car.

I pushed him hard, took two steps back, and sneered at them, “One of you for money, the other for women, right?”

Quentin turned his face away in shame, his profile haunted by unspeakable pain and guilt.

But so what?

No matter how much he valued this sibling relationship, the fact remains that he helped outsiders frame me.

He is no longer my brother.

And that once warm and happy home, in the end, fell apart.

I lowered my head and said coldly, “You guys go. In the future, I have no relationship with you anymore.”

“Ralda…” Quentin grabbed me anxiously, “I know we both let you down, but now is not the time to act impulsively. I just saw that Reynaldo was very depressed. He appeared calm on the surface, but there was already a cold murderous look in his eyes. You stay here, and he could hurt you at any time. Listen to me, come back with me first, Ralda, listen to me…”

I couldn’t help but laugh, mocking them with a sneer, “When you conspired with outsiders to frame me, you should have thought that Reynaldo would retaliate against me. Whether he would hurt me or take my life, isn’t it all because of you? So, you didn’t care about my safety at all, why bother with this hypocritical act!”

“Hey, why are you so petty, girl?” My dad looked at me and said indifferently, “Besides, we are all family, can’t you understand me a little bit? You see, now Reynaldo hasn’t done anything to you, and I’ve also received the money. Isn’t this a win–win situation?”

I trembled with anger as I listened to my father’s words.

Quentin shouted angrily at him, “Enough, don’t say it anymore.”

“You kid, what are you pretending for? You also tricked her, and you dare to yell at me?”

“That’s enough!”

At that moment, I almost saw through the ugliness of human nature.

I pointed at the dark night and growled at them, “Get out, all of you, get out!”

“Ralda…”

Quentin writhed his lips, unable to speak from the pain.
