Chapter 355

I stayed in the room all day, barefoot, occasionally applying medicine to the frostbite, which did improve quite a bit. When I was hungry, I would order takeout, and when I was tired, I would go to sleep. The days without any disturbance were quite pleasant.

After resting at the hotel for two days, Reynaldo and Johnathan never showed up again. Just when I thought they had left me behind and returned to Freybourne alone, Johnathan suddenly knocked on the door of my room. I looked at him in surprise and said, “You haven’t returned to Freybourne yet?”

Johnathan looked at me strangely and said, “This is not nonsense, we are going back and you should come with us. We are not as ruthless and heartless as you are. Even if you act so cold-blooded, you are still one of us. We will naturally bring you back when we go back.”

I…

It seems that Kimberly told him that I didn’t take care of Reynaldo’s wound, and she even exaggerated the situation. Look at Johnathan, he started speaking to me with hostility.

Johnathan glanced at me and said, “Pack up, we’re heading back to Freybourne on the afternoon flight.”

He left after he finished speaking. I quickly called out to him, “Hey, where’s Reynaldo?”

“Oh, so you do know how to care about him,” Johnathan sneered. “I really thought you were heartless.”

This sounds like a real earful no matter how you listen to it. I said lightly, “Just say what you have to say, there’s no need to beat around the bush like this.”

Johnathan hummed and said, “I dare not offend you, after all, your backer now is Matthew, and I can’t afford to provoke him.”

Johnathan was full of sarcasm in his words, and I couldn’t be bothered to talk to him, so I slammed the door shut.

He stood outside the door, shouting in frustration, “They were right, you are a cold–blooded and heartless wolf. You thought Reynaldo couldn’t live without you. I tell you, these days, Reynaldo has been with Kimberly. You really thought you were something special for getting with Matthew, but when he dumps you, don’t come crying back to Reynaldo!”

I lowered my gaze and stared at my toes.

These past two days, Reynaldo has been with Kimberly. Oh, no wonder that woman didn’t come to bother me these past two days. I smiled with pursed lips, but a touch of loss quietly surfaced in my heart.

“Oh, Reynaldo? Are you going out?” Suddenly I heard Johnathan shout outside the door.

My heart trembled slightly, and I instinctively opened the door. Reynaldo was passing by in front of us. He was wearing a black coat, with a stern face, exuding a gloomy atmosphere all over his body. He didn’t look at me, but walked straight past me without a glance. Kimberly was still following him.

When she saw me open the door, Kimberly immediately smiled and said to me, “Ms. Duffy, Reynaldo and I are going out for dinner now, would you like to join us?”

“No, thank you. I have already eaten,” I replied calmly.

Kimberly exclaimed, “Oh? Have you eaten already? But you haven’t even changed your clothes, right?”

“She must have ordered takeout,” Johnathan added.

Kimberly exclaimed dramatically, “Oh? Ms. Duffy, you only eat takeout? Are you eating takeout these days? Takeout is not sanitary and lacks nutrition. Ms. Duffy, you should eat less of it. Okay, what do you like to eat? Reynaldo and I will pack some for you to take back later.”

“He left.” At this moment, Reynaldo’s urging voice came from the elevator entrance.
