Chapter 1294

Little did I know, his dark eyes were fixed on me, not even glancing at Kimberly.

Matthew, next to Moshe, slowly furrowed his brow and sneered at Kimberly, “Oh, almost forgot, I just said, let Ms. Palmer experience the most miserable way to die in the world.”

Having said that, Matthew was ready to attack Kimberly.

Kimberly instantly screamed in a hoarse voice and reached out to grab Moshe’s hand.

Moshe frowned and avoided her touch, but still reached out to stop Matthew.

Matthew looked at Moshe with interest, his lips curling in a more mocking smile, “What, have you really fallen for someone like her?”

“How is that possible?” Moshe sneered, “It’s just that, that person wants me to protect her life for the time being.”

I frowned deeply.

Who is “that person” in Moshe’s mouth? Why did ‘that person‘ want to save Kimberly’s life, and what is Kimberly’s relationship with that person? I was afraid that “that person” in Moshe’s mouth was the enemy of Reynaldo and me. Did that person really want to use Kimberly to harm me and Reynaldo?

Thinking of this, a touch of uneasiness and irritability surged in my heart. Matthew was already so difficult to deal with; how could Reynaldo possibly handle it if there were even more powerful, mysterious figures behind him? I just don’t understand why Matthew had to deal with me and Reynaldo, but I guess it’s understandable—after all, Reynaldo did have a grudge against Matthew four years ago. What’s the deal with “that person” in Moshe’s mouth wanting to deal with me and Reynaldo? Besides Matthew, I haven’t offended anyone else, except perhaps through Reynaldo. If it was because of Kimberly, then it was even less likely. From the attitudes of Moshe and Matthew towards Kimberly, Kimberly was just a pawn in their eyes.

“Ms. Duffy…”

While I was analyzing, Matthew suddenly shouted at me. I instinctively looked up and saw Matthew smiling at me with a knowing look. “My recent proposal—Ms. Duffy said she would consider it carefully, so I am looking forward to Ms. Duffy’s response.”

Reynaldo instantly clenched my hand and stared coldly at Matthew, saying, “Don’t even think about it.”

Matthew smirked arrogantly and said, “I was expecting a response from Ms. Duffy, not from you. You didn’t want to, but maybe Ms. Duffy does.”

As soon as Matthew said this, Reynaldo tightened his grip on my hand even more, the tight force making me feel a little pain. I gently stroked his arm with my other hand. Reynaldo was slightly startled, lowering his gaze to look at me, with a hint of nervousness and melancholy in his eyes.

I smiled at him, then turned to Matthew and said coldly, “Yes, Reynaldo is right, don’t even think about it.”

Matthew smirked, laughing arrogantly, “Then I’ll just have to keep thinking about it.”

Before I could even speak, Kimberly suddenly interrupted, saying, “Oh, Mr. Galatea, didn’t your young lady say that if you like a woman, she wants that woman dead? You like Ms. Duffy so much; it’s like asking Ms. Duffy to die.”

Matthew held a cigarette in one hand and his other hand in his pocket, casually smiling at her, “I don’t like Ms. Duffy, so maybe I’ll just like you instead. Ms. Duffy didn’t go back to Roxafito with me, but you can come back and play with me. Our young lady, she really enjoyed tormenting women like you who are gentle and weak. Not long ago, she threw a woman into a cage to feed Tyke. Ms. Palmer, who is delicate and tender, Tyke must have liked it.”

After Matthew’s words, Kimberly’s face turned pale all of a sudden.
