Chapter 1129

When I was half asleep, I seemed to hear the person on the phone say, “I called just to tell you that I have picked up the kids, and they have already had dinner. They are doing well, with good appetites. You don’t need to worry.”

“Um.”

I responded in a daze and lay directly on the sofa.

The phone dropped to his ear, and then his voice became clearer.

“I also know that you really dislike me.”

“You can rest assured that I won’t bother you anymore, except for the children.”

“Reynaldo… I hated you…”

I muttered a sentence and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day when I woke up, my head was pounding like an explosion, and there were bottles all over the floor, in a mess.

I covered my head in discomfort, thinking to myself, “A hangover is really painful.”

No, in the future, even if you feel bad, you can’t drink too much. It’s better to go shopping or go dancing.

Drinking too much is really harmful to the body, and it feels terrible.

I paused for a moment, then found my phone, intending to check the time.

As soon as I opened my phone, it was on the screen where Reynaldo and I ended the call.

Strange?

Last night I talked to Reynaldo on the phone.

The call lasted for over an hour.

Hiss!

Last night, I was so drunk that I could still chat with him for over an hour?

Moreover, what would he say to me during this more than one-hour call, with his cold and indifferent attitude towards me now?

I tapped my head but couldn’t remember anything.

This wine was still the one Vonnie had sent over before, saying it was bought by Johnathan.

I don’t know what kind of wine it was, but it was really strong. It actually made me pass out directly.

I stared at the call log for a long time, but in the end, I couldn’t remember anything.

I simply threw my phone aside and got up to tidy up the room.

For nearly half a month, Reynaldo did not appear in front of me again.

He didn’t even send me a text message, nor did he call me once.

Sometimes I miss the children, so I call him to ask about their situation.

The call was always picked up by the children.

Of course, sometimes the children would also use his phone to video call me.

But I never saw Reynaldo once, nor heard him speak.

I began to wonder if he had just given the phone directly to the children.

Sometimes I would ask the children what Reynaldo was doing, and they would tell me, “Reynaldo is busy in the study.”

I thought he had been busy with work for most of the past half month.

One time on set, Johnathan told me that the company had been very quiet lately, with basically nothing going on.

Since then, I knew that Reynaldo was intentionally avoiding me.

When I realized that, I couldn’t describe how I felt in my heart – a little sad and a little self-deprecating.

As for the divorce, he never mentioned it again.

He didn’t mention it, so naturally, I wouldn’t bring it up either.

I was just feeling a little frustrated and sad in my heart, and these frustrations and sadness eventually turned into a hint of resentment.

I started to resent Reynaldo.

I blamed him for ignoring me, blamed him for making me so miserable.

That day, the set closed early, as if Johnathan had intentionally said goodbye to Gilbert.
