Chapter 696

Thinking of my mother, a touch of sour tears welled up in my eyes.

I choked out, โ€œDid Quentin go to see Kimberly?โ€

โ€œUm,โ€ Vonnie nodded, and then quickly added. โ€œBut he took you to the hospital first before going to see Kimberly.โ€

So what?

I was really curious about how Quentin would react when Kimberlyโ€™s true identity was revealed and all the bad things she had done came to light. He loved his motherโ€™s killer so deeply.

I looked slowly at Vonnie and said, โ€œDo you like Quentin?โ€

Vonnie didnโ€™t open her eyes; her expression was somewhat unnatural.

Sure enough.

But Quentin is now infatuated with Kimberly; he is now just like my dad, turning a blind eye to his relatives. Vonnie is so good; itโ€™s not worth liking him.

I held her hand and cried sadly, โ€œIf it were in the past, I really wished you could be with Quentin and become my sister-in-law.โ€

But now, I hope you didnโ€™t like him.

Although he was deceived by Kimberly, his life was also over; there was no redemption.

Because it was his complete trust in Kimberly that killed my mother, and he conspired with Kimberly to frame me; I cannot forgive him. And in the future, when he sees Kimberlyโ€™s true colors, he will surely not be able to forgive himself either.

She had already been dragged into the quagmire by Kimberly, and you are so good; you deserve a better man to love and care for you. I also believe that our Vonnie will definitely be very happy in the future.โ€

Vonnieโ€™s tears kept falling uncontrollably, and she choked out. โ€œOkay. Iโ€™ll listen to you. I wonโ€™t like him anymore. Heโ€™s not the same Quentin he used to be.โ€

As soon as she finished speaking, Quentin suddenly appeared at the door, his face dark and unclear.

Vonnie wiped the tears off her face and said to me, โ€œRalda, are you hungry? Iโ€™ll go buy you something to eat.โ€

I nodded and watched her leave.

As she passed by Quentin, he glanced at her sideways, a hint of complexity flashing across his face.

After Vonnie left, Quentin walked over.

He said to me, โ€œI didnโ€™t know if Vonnie liked me.โ€

โ€œIs it?โ€ I sarcastically laughed at him. โ€œYou donโ€™t need to know now; anyway, she wonโ€™t like you in the future, and you, just stick with your Kimberly.โ€

Quentin pursed his lips, his tired face filled with complexity.

When it comes to Kimberly, the sarcasm on my lips was even more pronounced, โ€œItโ€™s strange; how come you didnโ€™t stick with that wicked woman? Or are you here now to settle scores for her with me?โ€

โ€œRalda, can you please not talk to me like this?โ€

Quentin choked up, his face full of pain. โ€œWe are siblings; Mom once said, no matter what happens, we must love each other. Have you forgotten?โ€

โ€œThat was what my mom said to my brother, and you are not my brother; you are just Quentin.โ€

Seeing my cold expression and eyes full of sarcasm, Quentin sadly took a deep breath.

He walked to the bedside and stared at me without blinking, his tone pleading, โ€œRalda, promise me; donโ€™t go looking for Kimberly to fight with her anymore.โ€

I clenched my hand under the quilt and smiled coldly at him, โ€œWhat? Afraid that I will hurt your beloved one? Let me tell you clearly, as long as I am alive, I will never let her off easily. She was lucky this time, but next time might not be the same.

โ€œSo, if you want to protect her, then you have to deal with me first.โ€
