Chapter 964
Thinking to myself, I grabbed a robe and draped it over my body. As soon as my feet touched the ground, I heard Kimberlyโs pitiful voice. โReynaldo, donโt be like this. I just wanted to come up and see Ralda.โ She was living with us just fine, but last night she didnโt come back all night. We called her, but no one answered. Quentin and I were both so worried. I sarcastically tugged at my lips. This woman always dressed up when she went out, talked in a pretentious way, and was always pretending. I was still in a hurry; how could she have the nerve to say it out loud?! However, she came today, not to make sure if I was here or not, but for my two children.
I rubbed my sore legs, stood up, and then realized I was wearing Reynaldoโs bathrobe. So long and so big! I tied the belt of my robe tightly and dragged my sore body to the door. Reynaldo was really ruthless; he made me feel like I was falling apart. Outside the door, Kimberly was still crying sadly, โReynaldo, to be honest, when Ralda stabbed me those two times, causing me to never be able to conceive, I was actually quite resentful towards her.โ However, who called her Quentinโs sister, the woman you loved? For you, I was willing to forgive her and tried my best to treat her as family, as a sister. Hmm!!! Listening to her words, I felt like "I was going to throw up." She continued, โI also know that you have always loved her very much, loved her so much that you can even overlook Mikaelaโs death four years ago. Actually, I can understand; I wonโt blame you for anything.โ โI think Mikaela is in heaven; she wouldnโt blame you, as long as you are happy, we will all be happy for youโฆโ Depend onโฆ This woman is really cunning and despicable, bringing up that incident from four years ago to remind Reynaldo. She even went so far as to say these words on purpose, making Reynaldo feel guilty towards his mother. I felt a chill, and with a cold gaze, I pulled open the door. When Kimberly, who was talking non-stop, saw me, she suddenly froze. And when her gaze fell on my robe and around my neck, a flash of sinister jealousy quickly passed through her eyes. And Reynaldo stood quietly on the side, holding a tray in his hands; on the tray were steaming hot meals. Perhaps because Kimberly mentioned Mikaelaโs death, Reynaldoโs face looked very bad at the moment, a little cold and a little heavy. I averted my gaze and smiled at Kimberly, saying, โMs. Palmer, what brings you here?โ Kimberly quickly put on a friendly and concerned face and said, โQuentin and I were worried sick when you didnโt come back all night, so we came to look for you and see if you were here." Ralda, you were living so well with us; why did you move back? "And you didnโt even say a word when you moved back. Quentin was so worried last night that he didnโt sleep all night.โ I lazily leaned against the side door frame, absentmindedly tapping my leg. Kimberly frowned and said, โRalda, I was talking to you.โ I smiled at her and said, โSorry, last night was too intense. Now, standing for a long time, my legs are sore.โ
I knew that Kimberly had always wanted Reynaldo. Her obsession and possessiveness towards Reynaldo had reached a twisted point. My friendship with Reynaldo naturally drove her crazy.
