Chapter 96

“Ralda, didn’t you used to stay by Reynaldo’s side? Is it… did he want you to leave?”

Whenever I mention Reynaldo, a pang of pain always flashes through my heart.

I laughed lightly at Quentin and said, “No, he didn’t chase me away. But as you know, I have already divorced him, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to stay by his side.”

Now that I have also found a job, I want to rent a house and live my own life.

Quentin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, “It’s best that you have this plan. Actually, my brother never agreed with you being by his side from the beginning. It was fine when you were not divorced, but if you continue to be by his side after the divorce, it would be without status or rights.”

Now you have your own job, your own life, and your own plans, and your older brother felt more at ease.

“Here, these are the keys to the rented house that my older brother arranged.”

Quentin said and then pulled out a key from under the pillow.

He handed it to me and said, “The house that my brother rented is a bit old and the environment is not very good. Go and have a look first. If you don’t like it, my brother will help you look online later.”

“Okay.”

I took the key with a smile, and a hint of warmth finally flowed through my desolate heart. Although Reynaldo disliked me, my father treated me the same way. But I still had my beloved older brother and my mother, didn’t I?

I carefully put the key into my pocket, and when I looked up, I suddenly noticed that Quentin was frequently looking towards the door of the ward.

I paused for a moment, followed his gaze, and looked at the door. There was nothing there.

I looked at Quentin with confusion and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“No, nothing,” Quentin said, lowering his head and smiling.

I widened my eyes and looked at his smiling face in astonishment. This smile was so shy and timid! Oh my god, has Quentin ever laughed like this before? Is there something fishy going on?

“Huh…” I leaned in and grinned at him, “Bro, do you have a girlfriend now?”

“No, don’t talk nonsense,” Quentin denied, but he smiled even more shyly.

I covered my mouth and giggled. Speaking of which, although my family used to be wealthy, Quentin never used to be promiscuous or have casual relationships. His favorite thing was to go out and have fun with his buddies. He was already in his twenties and had never had a girlfriend.

There were also many beautiful women who approached him in the past, but he was not interested. Back then, my mom used to secretly tell me that she was worried about his sexual orientation. Looking at him in this moment, it seems like he suddenly had an awakening, his emotions blossoming for the first time.

I kept staring at him with a constant smile, and only then did Quentin say, “Alright, alright, I’ll tell you so that you won’t guess randomly.”

“Um.” I sat up straight and listened calmly.

He said, “A few days ago, I met a girl in the hospital. That girl was very beautiful, very pure, and she also looked very gentle. She saw me staying in the hospital alone, and these days she has been coming to keep me company and chat with me. Sometimes she even brings me the meals she personally cooked.”

I listened and chuckled, “So, brother, do you really like her?”

Quentin smiled shyly and said, “I don’t know either, but every time I saw her, I felt happy inside, and I looked forward to seeing her every day.”

He paused and glanced towards the door, expressing his hidden concern, “She usually comes to see me around this time every day, but she hasn’t arrived yet today. I wonder if something has happened.”

“Well, you could have called her.”

Quentin’s face turned awkward, and he said, “I don’t have her phone number, but I gave her mine.”

Me: ”Did she say she would come to see you every day?”

Quentin shook his head, “No, she didn’t say that. She only said she would come to see me often. Really, Ralda, I have never seen such a gentle girl before. Just looking at her makes me feel comfortable and satisfied.”

Uh!

It seems that Quentin had developed deep feelings for that girl. He just didn’t even have their phone number, and they didn’t say exactly when they would come to see him. Maybe, they came over to visit their own relatives and happened to see him alone, so they took a look at him.
