Chapter 431

After a while, he chuckled lightly, as if he had figured out the calculations in my mind.

He leaned close to me, whispered in my ear with a voice that only he and I could hear.

“I wanted to tell your best friend that I had imprisoned you so that she could find a way to save you, right?”

I pursed my lips and remained silent.

Actually, it was not surprising that he could guess this.

I didn’t deny it either. Denying it too much only made him more suspicious.

I glanced at him and said lightly, “Since you know, why did you still bring me to this wrap-up ceremony?”

Reynaldo smirked at me, his eyes full of contempt.

He spoke slowly, and his words were cold and hurtful.

“I brought you here just to make you realize that even if you tell the whole world that I imprisoned you, no one has the ability to save you. I just wanted you to let go of that grudge.”

So that’s how it is!

Oh, I was still wondering how he could bear to bring me to this wrap-up ceremony when he knew Winston, Anton, and Vonnie were all here.

Originally, he wanted me to completely give up on “running away.”

I have to say, this man is ruthless.

Silent and ruthless, ruthless and despairing.

Reynaldo smiled, a curl to his lips, as he looked at the sorrow and hatred in my eyes.

He slowly backed away from me, his eyes gazing lightly at me, and said with a smile that was not quite a smile, “You can talk about whatever you want.”

I stared at him coldly, clenching my fist tightly at my side.

Vonnie glanced at me for a moment, then carefully said to Reynaldo, “Mr. Humphrey, there are a lot of media reporters over there. They just said they want to interview you. Do you want to go and take a look?”

Reynaldo took out a cigarette, bit it in his mouth, and lit it with his head down.

That very ordinary action was interpreted by him with a touch of charm.

Vonnie quickly shook her head, looking as if she had been momentarily mesmerized by his gesture.

She hurriedly said, “Mr. Humphrey, there are a lot of people over there looking for you. Do you really not want to go and take a look? Moreover, the topics that us girls talk about, it’s not appropriate for you to listen to, right?”

Reynaldo slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, he raised his hand to check his wristwatch, and smiled at me, saying, “I will wait for you at the exit in an hour. You better be on time, or else… I don’t know what I might do.”

He finished speaking, gave me a meaningful glance, and then left.

Vonnie and I didn’t breathe a sigh of relief until his figure disappeared into the crowd.

Vonnie shrugged and said, “Reynaldo seems to be getting scarier. I just talked to him for a few minutes and I felt so nervous. It’s a good thing you’re with him every day.”

Right, it’s not just me who thinks that Reynaldo is a scary man.

Vonnie felt the same way.

“By the way, Ralda…”

Vonnie pulled me aside into the lounge and then brought up the matter, “Where have you been all this time? Were you with Reynaldo? If you were with him, why didn’t you tell me? You didn’t even answer my calls. I was so worried, I couldn’t focus on filming.”

“I’m sorry,” I squeezed her hand and whispered, “I’ve been held captive by Reynaldo during this time.”
