Chapter 264
I was so annoyed that I looked up at her and sneered, โInstead of asking me this question, why donโt you ask your Reynaldo if he would let me go?โ
Kimberlyโs eyes twinkled as she smiled at me and said, โSo, if Reynaldo were to let you go, would you immediately settle down with Jonathan?โ
I opened my mouth, but before I could answer, Reynaldo suddenly put down his fork and looked coldly at Jonathan, saying, โCome out with me.โ
Jonathan was taken aback. โWhatโs up? I havenโt finished eating; Iโm not going out!โ
Reynaldo dangerously squinted his eyes and said, โCome out!โ He coldly dropped those two words and then walked out of the private room.
Jonathan immediately threw down his fork and glared at me and Kimberly with resentment. โYou two can play by yourselves; why do you have to drag me into it? Now I might as well be skinned alive by that man.โ
Kimberly innocently asked him, โJonathan, what are you talking about? Reynaldo must have something to tell you if he asked you out.โ
Jonathan rolled his eyes in silence and then looked at me. I gave him a subtle nod.
After the two men left, I began to eat in peace. Kimberly kept staring at me, her eyes no longer pitiful and innocent, but haughty and disdainful.
She said to me, โMs. Duffy, do you know why Reynaldo insisted on you going on the business trip with him?โ
I ate my food in silence, ignoring her. She chuckled and continued, โBecause, you see, this client is exceptionally fond of making things difficult for people, and I heard that this client is very twisted, especially enjoying tormenting beautiful women like you with good looks and figures.โ
Reynaldo took you with him, just wanting the contract signed smoothly and completed.
I paused my eating and remained silent. She sighed again, pretending, โOh, you poor thing, being used by Reynaldo as a tool to lure customers.โ
โPoor people always have something despicable about them. It serves you right for bullying Reynaldo before; now heโs just getting back at you.โ
โHave you said enough?โ I looked at her coldly.
Kimberly paused for a moment and smirked. โHad enough? Are you feeling very sad?โ
I sneered coldly, โStop talking and shut up! Your voice is so disgusting that I can hardly eat.โ

Kimberlyโs face turned red with anger. After a while, she chuckled and said, โDonโt be too pleased with yourself. At tomorrowโs dinner party, you can expect to be handed over to Reynaldo.โ
โAnyway, you were already tired of being played by him, so thereโs nothing to miss.โ Kimberly said coldly, then left the private room to find Reynaldo.
I leaned back in my chair, my appetite completely ruined by Kimberly. Will Reynaldo really play me off to someone else at tomorrowโs dinner party?
Although the man did hate me, detest me, for some reason, I just didnโt believe a single word Kimberly had said. I felt like a man like Reynaldo would not hand over his woman to someone else to play with. He was a person who disdained using underhanded methods to gain profit. Otherwise, in the three years of our marriage, he had already taken advantage of my familyโs connections to get ahead. But no, he didnโt. So, Kimberly must have said that on purpose just to provoke me. Thinking of this, my heart was instantly comforted.
