Chapter 691

I looked at him and sarcastically curled my lips. "They all say I killed Ms. Versta, so who told you that? Reynaldo?"

"Oh no, Reynaldo hasnโ€™t said a word to me yet."

Thinking that we still had some relationship in the past, I advised you to leave quickly, really.

"It wasnโ€™t Reynaldo who told you." I glanced at Kimberly and sneered, "Then I know who did."

"Oh my God, did you even listen to me? I told you to leave right away, or else if Reynaldo wants to take your life later, I really canโ€™t stop him."

At this moment, Kimberly suddenly walked over, wiping tears, and said, "Ms. Duffy is here, come quickly, bow to Ms. Versta. Although you took away Ms. Verstaโ€™s life-saving kidney source, I believe it was unintentional. If Ms. Versta knew, she wouldnโ€™t blame you."

Her voice was hoarse, as if she had been crying, filled with sadness, not too loud or too soft, but everyone in the whole funeral parlor heard it.

At that moment, everyone looked at me in shock.

I ignored the shocked looks of those people and just said meaningfully to Kimberly, "Yes, itโ€™s time to bow and apologize."

After saying that, I pulled away the hand that Johnathan was still holding on my arm and walked slowly towards the coffin.

I stood beside Reynaldo, looking at the coffin in front of me.

"Get lost!"

A barely audible cold voice sounded in my ear.

My body hesitated for a moment, and then I pretended not to hear, bowing my head toward Mikaelaโ€™s coffin.

A big hand suddenly grabbed my wrist.

He used a lot of force; my wrist hurt a lot, and his knuckles also turned a pale shade of blue.

I suppressed the pain in my heart, turned slowly, and met Reynaldoโ€™s crimson and cold eyes.

He glared at me with disgust, his thin lips slightly parted, but still uttered the same word, "Get out!"

At this moment, Kimberly walked over and cried to Reynaldo, "Reynaldo, just let Ms. Duffy bow to Ms. Versta as an act of contrition."

Oh!

What a redemption!

I hid the killing intent in my eyes and watched Reynaldo quietly.

Kimberly was still pretending to cry. "Reynaldo, donโ€™t be like this; after all, Ms. Duffyโ€™s mother has just passed away; she must be very sad too."

"She must have realized it and feared retribution, so she came specially to confess to Ms. Versta. Let her make a sacrifice."

Reynaldo said nothing, just stared at me coldly, the chill in his eyes colder than the wind and snow outside.

Johnathan also came over and said, "Reynaldo, just let her pay her respects and then let her leave quickly."

"And I saw that she was sincerely coming to offer incense to Ms. Versta, so just let her be; donโ€™t argue with her here, disturbing Ms. Verstaโ€™s peace."

The last sentence seemed to finally persuade Reynaldo.

His fingers loosened slightly, and after a while, he completely let go of my wrist.

And there was clearly a circle of bruises on my wrist.

He turned around and threw yellow paper into the brazier, his tone cold and eerie, "After you finish worshipping, get out of here!"

Kimberly followed up, crying, and said to me, "Ms. Duffy, please bow to Ms. Versta, and sincerely apologize to Ms. Versta. She is so kind, I believe she will forgive you."

I slowly tugged at my lips, a cold smile rising in my heart.

I bent down and respectfully bowed three times towards Mikaelaโ€™s coffin.

When I stood up, I faced the coffin and said word by word, "Ms. Versta, Mom, you watch closely. I will avenge you now!"
