Chapter 494
My face burned even more. “You rascal!”
I still can’t figure out how such a restrained and cultured face can always say such vulgar things. And he was already so badly injured, but he was still thinking about the same thing in his head. This man, indeed, was very indulgent.
Just as Reynaldo leaned in to kiss me, a muffled laugh suddenly came from the doorway. I furrowed my brows, turned my head, and saw Johnathan and Kimberly appearing at the door. This door doesn’t make any sound when it’s opened. How come I didn’t hear any noise when these two came in?
Johnathan smirked and said, “Oh, it seems like I arrived at the wrong time.” Compared to Johnathan’s teasing, Kimberly’s eyes were somewhat gloomy, but she still had a pitiful look on her face. She tearfully called out to Reynaldo, and he immediately walked over. She was carrying a thermos in her hand.
When she saw the breakfast I bought for Reynaldo, she started accusing me again: “Ms. Duffy, Reynaldo is so badly injured, how can you still casually buy him these messy breakfasts, which are neither hygienic nor healthy?" She pushed me aside as she opened the thermal box she brought and said softly to Reynaldo, "Reynaldo, this is the mutton soup I stayed up all night to make. It’s best to drink this soup in autumn and winter. Drink it while it’s hot.”
I gave a cold snort and said, “Don’t you know? Injured people like him are better off eating light food. By making such a thick mutton soup, and it’s even spicy, are you trying to delay his recovery?”
“I…” Kimberly had a pitiful look on her face again, looking at Reynaldo. “This is the mutton soup I specially made in the middle of the night. I haven’t heard that you can’t drink mutton soup when you’re sick in the hospital. I just wanted to nourish your body, but in Ms. Duffy’s eyes, I’m just harming you. You can clearly see that every time you get hurt, it’s because of her.” Kimberly looked so wronged.
Reynaldo remained silent, while Johnathan tugged at my arm and said, “Come on, just say a few words less. Kimberly is also well-intentioned.”
“I didn’t say anything, but when she accused me of buying unhealthy and unsanitary breakfast, I didn’t cry, unlike her who likes to cry.”
“Alright, alright!” Johnathan kept pulling my arm. I impatiently brushed away his hand. When did he start talking to Kimberly again? Wasn’t he always hating Kimberly? It seems that Reynaldo has been badmouthing me to Johnathan because of my injury.
Kimberly was still sobbing, and it was really annoying to listen to. I picked up my breakfast and headed back to my own hospital room. Reynaldo suddenly grabbed me and asked, “Where are you going?”
“Go back, there are so many people watching you, why am I still staying here?” I said with a smile.
Reynaldo furrowed his brow and stared at me darkly. “When will you come to see me again?”
I don’t know, after all, some people kept saying that I harmed you. I didn’t like that conversation, and I don’t like listening to people crying and sobbing, which is annoying. So I might as well go back to my own ward and sleep.”
“Reynaldo…”
As soon as I finished speaking, Kimberly looked at Reynaldo with even more grievance. This time, Reynaldo simply ignored her, his deep eyes only looking at me intently. The feeling of being stared at so intently by him was quite nice. This was the only time Kimberly cried in front of him, and he did not blame me for defending Kimberly without any reason.
