Reynaldo stared at me intently and said, โI wonโt let her die.โ
After speaking, he approached me, his dark eyes staring coldly, and his slender fingers, with a chill, touched my cheek.
He spoke with the lowest and gentlest voice, saying the coldest and most ruthless words, โGet out of Freybourne quickly, donโt force me to lay hands on you.โ
My heart was twisted into a knot, causing sharp and bitter pain.
I smiled at him and said, โIf you hate me so much, then just kill me.โ
Reynaldoโs tall body trembled slightly, his eyes momentarily turning a terrifying crimson, filled with resentment and pain.
He rubbed my chin, his sad tone tinged with self-mockery, โYou know I love you, you know I canโt bear to kill you, so you deliberately provoke me, right? Esmeralda, I have said before that you have no heart, and it seems to be true.โ
โI didnโt want your life, but I also didnโt want to see you again in the future.โ
He finished speaking, released me, took two steps back, and said to Braylon, โKick her out.โ
After saying that, he no longer looked at me, but turned to check on Kimberlyโs condition.
Braylon walked up to me and made a โpleaseโ gesture.
I didnโt move, I just stared intently at Kimberly lying on the ground, curled up in pain.
Johnathan called for emergency assistance while applying pressure to her wound.
She grabbed Reynaldoโs hand and looked at me in horror, โReynaldo, sheโฆ sheโs gone mad, sheโs going toโฆ going to kill meโฆ It was she who killed Ms. Versta andโฆ and her own mother. Why did she want me to be buried with her?โ
Even though she was injured like this, Kimberly still did not forget to disguise her weakness and innocence.
I clenched the knife in my hand, eager to make a few more cuts.
Braylon saw my intention and reminded me expressionlessly, โMs. Duffy had better think carefully. If Ms. Palmer dies at Ms. Duffyโs hands, Ms. Duffy will not escape legal sanctions.โ
I didnโt say anything; I just turned around and walked silently towards the outside.
Braylon followed behind me.
Passing by Kimberly, my eyes darkened, and I quickly lunged forward and viciously stabbed her leg.
A scream erupted.
Kimberly hugged her legs, trembling with pain.
Johnathan was so scared that he couldnโt even speak, โEsmie, you, youโฆโ
I coldly squinted my eyes, pulled out the knife, and stabbed Kimberly again.
But the next second, my raised wrist was grabbed by Reynaldo.
He looked at me intensely and said, โYou are crazy!โ
โYes, I went crazy, driven crazy by you all!โ
Reynaldo lowered his gaze, and with a strong grip, I felt pain as the knife in his hand uncontrollably fell to the ground.
I stared at the screaming Kimberly on the ground unwillingly.
I just regretted that I was too slow to act and didnโt stab her a few more times.
โBraylon, hurry up, hurry!โ
Johnathan urgently shouted to Braylon. โHurry up and get her out, or she will stab someone later.โ
Braylon quickly pulled me outside.
I turned around and sneered at Kimberly, โDonโt think that just because they are all protecting you, you can escape unscathed. As long as I am alive, I want you to pay for my motherโs life!โ
Reynaldoโs dark eyes were fixed on me, his hands tightly clenched at his side.
He must hate me now.
Hehe, it doesnโt matter; nothing matters anymore.
Braylon threw me out of the yard, standing at the gate, he said to me lightly, โMs. Duffy, leave quickly, stop challenging Mr. Humphreyโs bottom line, and you should also see that even if Mr. Humphrey hates you again, he doesnโt want to hurt you.โ
