Chapter 919

He looked over with a cold face, as if he was going to speak up for Kimberly.

Vonnie saw it and instantly got angry.

He said with his chest puffed out, “I told Ralda she was being overly sentimental, so what?”

Originally, Mr. Humphrey came to see our Ralda, and she ran over excitedly saying, “Mr. Humphrey came to see her. Isn’t that being presumptuous?”

Quentin’s face instantly darkened: “Shut up!”

Vonnie pursed her lips, not only did she not shut up, but also coldly snorted, “Being a lapdog to this extent is really enough. She chases after Mr. Humphrey all day long, calling out ‘Reynaldo, Reynaldo’, acting all sweet and fake, and you actually can tolerate it!”

“Lavonne!”

Quentin roared, as if he was going to come over to Vonnie.

I quickly stood up and stood in front of Vonnie, while Johnathan also held Vonnie in his arms.

Johnathan hummed, “Mr. Duffy is really strange. The problem lies with your woman. It’s fine if you don’t talk about your woman, but you even started yelling about my woman. Do you really think I’m dead?”

Quentin stared heavily at Vonnie, his hand at his side tightening with anger.

I smiled faintly at him and said, “Mr. Duffy, did Vonnie say something wrong? It’s one thing to deceive yourself, but why not let others speak the truth?”

Quentin’s gaze shifted to me, carrying a hint of indescribable complexity and sadness.

He gave me a deep look and didn’t say anything else, then he took Kimberly and left.

Kimberly had something on Quentin and didn’t dare to make a scene, so she obediently followed Quentin.

When Kimberly left, the air around became much fresher.

No, it was still a bit oppressive, because Reynaldo was still there, and that dark, oppressive gaze was still there.

I wanted to leave. I was about to ask Vonnie when she finished work today, so we could go out for a meal later.

But Vonnie was flirting with Johnathan.

Alas, my Vonnie is no longer just my Vonnie.

At that moment, Reynaldo suddenly said to me, “I didn’t drive here, can you give me a ride on your way back?”

“Who said I was going back?” I instinctively replied.

Reynaldo instantly frowned, a little annoyed, “Where are you going then?”

“I don’t see how it’s any of your business where I go,” I said flatly.

Since this man resisted me so much, he would give me a cold look whenever he saw me, so why bother caring about me so much?

Reynaldo’s face darkened completely, and he stared at me coldly.

And at that moment, Gilbert, who had been sitting beside me cracking sunflower seeds, suddenly said to me, “Ms. Duffy, would you like to have dinner with me tonight?”

I was taken aback, looking at Gilbert inexplicably.

All of a sudden, what was he up to?

And Gilbert didn’t seem like the kind of person who enjoys joining in the fun.

Sure enough, the next second, Gilbert solemnly said to me, “I really admire Ms. Duffy’s talent. I was actually planning to invite Ms. Duffy to dinner yesterday, but I was worried that Ms. Duffy might not have time. Today Ms. Duffy seemed to be free, so we will have a meal together later, mainly about the details of this “Rose Queen”, I still need to learn more from Ms. Duffy.”

I told you, Gilbert was famous for being a workaholic and a perfectionist.

If it weren’t for work, why would he suddenly ask me out for dinner?

Thinking about work, I nodded at him and said, “Okay, so about…”

“Esmeralda!”
