Chapter 827

Besides, isn’t it just about not being able to have children? We are so close now; your child is my child, right?

My aunt also treated them as if they were her own children.

She said this, then went to touch Essie and Roddy with a gentle smile on her face.

The two children were scared by Kimberly last time at Quentin’s.

Kimberly approached, naturally hiding behind Reynaldo with a guarded expression on her face.

Kimberly saw the situation and joked softly, “Oh, why are these two kids still so shy? Don’t be afraid; I am very nice, and I have prepared a lot of gifts for you. You should come to my house to play next time.”

Roddy hid behind Reynaldo and peeked out a little head, saying directly to her, “I don’t want to; you are a bad aunt.”

“Yes!” Essie also hid behind Reynaldo, staring at Kimberly with a look of resistance, “We don’t want to go to your house; you were scarier than my dad last time; you are a bad person.”

Reynaldo frowned, his sharp black eyes staring straight at Kimberly.

Kimberly stiffly pursed her lips, her expression always maintaining her ‘kindness’: “Reynaldo, have these two children heard some gossip and misunderstood me? The last time I saw them, they were clearly too excited, saying, “I’m so happy; Reynaldo, you finally have such a lovely son and daughter.” But how come when it gets to their mouths, I become a scary bad guy? Did someone misinterpret me in front of them?”

“Yes, Mr. Humphrey…” the people from the orphanage started speaking up for Kimberly, “Ms. Palmer’s contributions in the charity world are well-known; our orphanage was also built with her donations. And Ms. Palmer often brought gifts to the orphanage to visit these poor children, and today she took the time to bring the children to the amusement park to play. How could these two little ones still think that Ms. Palmer, who is so gentle and kind, is a bad person? Could she really be their mother…?”

“Shut up!”

Reynaldo looked at the orphanage staff with a flat expression, and his unchanging tone was enough to make the staff’s face turn pale.

“Are you saying that my child doesn’t know right from wrong? Accusing people randomly?”

I looked at Reynaldo in surprise. The sun was setting in the west, and Reynaldo actually defended his child so obviously in front of Kimberly, whom he always unconditionally trusted and favored.

Seeing the scene before me, I was truly shocked. At the same time, seeing Kimberly’s ugly face as if she had eaten a fly, I felt even more pleased.

She said softly to Reynaldo, “Reynaldo, don’t be angry; they were just guessing. After all, I was so good to your two children, but they always thought I was a bad person. Thinking back, I realized that I had too little contact with them; they were shy. So, today, I happened to bring the children from the orphanage to play and let these two children play with me; it’s lively with more people.”

I was just about to refuse.

Reynaldo suddenly took the hands of two children and said to her in a low voice, “No need; compared to you, their biological father needs to build a better relationship with them.”

The man finished speaking, without even looking at Kimberly, he took the two children’s hands and walked towards the nearby children’s roller coaster.

I watched his back; a touch of surprise and tenderness flashed through my heart. I didn’t expect Reynaldo to care so much about these two children. When I saw his attitude towards them on the surveillance footage that day, I thought…
