Chapter 81

Kimberly still had a pitiful and aggrieved look, like a pear blossom with rain.

She choked back tears and said, "I never thought about switching with Ms. Avila. It was she who first mentioned acting with me, which made me feel uncomfortable."

Quentin patted her back, whispered a few words of comfort, then looked at Vonnie, his tone somewhat cold, "I know you don't like Kimberly, but when it comes to work, I hope you don't mix personal grievances into it."

With that, he pursed his lips and added with a hint of complexity in his tone, "Furthermore, I am the one who owes you an apology, so please do not take it out on Kimberly."

Upon hearing this, I was stunned for two seconds.

I didn't realize Quentin was so narcissistic.

He thought Vonnie dealing with Kimberly meant that Vonnie still loved him?

What a joke, couldn't he see that Vonnie is now into Johnathan?

Vonnie laughed when she heard what he said.

She sneered at Quentin, "Stop flattering yourself. It's not someone targeting Kimberly; it's your own Kimberly asking for trouble and looking for a fight!"

"Shut up!" Quentin suddenly snapped at her.

With a roar, Johnathan was not happy.

He frowned and said, "Mr. Duffy, who are you yelling at?"

Quentin’s face turned cold, just about to speak.

Kimberly suddenly tearfully said to Vonnie, "I know you hate me for taking Quentin away, but matters of the heart are also beyond control. Also, Ms. Avila, now that you are already with Johnathan, just treat Johnathan well and stop thinking about Quentin. Otherwise, you will really disappoint Johnathan’s sincere heart towards you."

I can’t believe it; Kimberly is so cunning, she actually deliberately tried to sow discord between Vonnie and Johnathan.

Johnathan’s face did darken slightly as expected.

Vonnie glanced at Johnathan and shouted at Kimberly urgently, “Stop talking nonsense here; no one is thinking about your Quentin."

"Really?" Kimberly asked innocently, "Then how come you were shouting Quentin’s name when you were drunk, causing Quentin to get beaten up by Johnathan."

"You…"

"Really, Ms. Avila, if Johnathan is treating you like this, you shouldn’t keep thinking about Quentin. Otherwise, you not only let Johnathan down, but also cause trouble for Quentin."

Hudson couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at Vonnie, never expecting that she would have emotional entanglements with so many big shots.

Several other small investors buried their heads, looking as if they were eating melons and staying out of the matter.

Johnathan fell silent, his face looking very unpleasant.

Vonnie looked at him, feeling both angry and anxious, unsure whether to explain to him first or confront Kimberly.

I was so angry that I coldly said to Kimberly, "Ms. Palmer really went to great lengths for Vonnie and Mr. Dunlap, but when it comes to others, she is sharp-tongued without saying a word about herself."

Kimberly innocently asked me, "What does Ms. Duffy mean again?"

"It is well known that Quentin is so good to you, always accommodating and protecting you in every way. But deep down, you are still thinking about Mr. Humphrey."

Reynaldo took a sip of his drink, and his dark eyes glanced at me.

I didn’t look at him, just glanced at Quentin, and sneered at Kimberly, "Ms. Palmer is always giving advice to others, but she herself is indecisive and doesn’t say a word. Ms. Palmer is really kind."

"You’re talking nonsense; I never thought about Reynaldo, everyone knows that I am just Reynaldo’s stepsister now."

"Wow, look at how sweetly Reynaldo’s being called out."

If you say you don’t have Mr. Humphrey in your heart, I’ll chop off my head.
