Chapter 541

But the next second, my back suddenly hit a hard chest.

The person behind me put his hand on my shoulder, so I didnโ€™t fall down!

I hurriedly turned around to say thank you, but my heart trembled fiercely.

It was Reynaldo after all!

When Reynaldo saw me, he first frowned, then his cold eyes narrowed slowly, looking dangerously at my dad.

My father was really wary of Reynaldo.

He instantly put on a smile and said to Reynaldo, โ€œItโ€™s nothing, just the usual arguments between father and daughter. And, Reynaldo, please try to talk some sense into her when you have the chance.โ€

โ€œI am her father, I have the right to pursue my own happiness, and you should advise her not to bother me again in the future.โ€

Reynaldo withdrew his hand from my shoulder and said in a casual tone, โ€œThis is your family matter, I canโ€™t interfere.โ€

Listening to his indifferent words, my heart twitched and a touch of bitterness arose.

Your family matters?

His words completely severed our relationship.

I lowered my eyes to hide the sadness and self-mockery, and said nothing.

My father was stunned for a few seconds, then seemed to understand everything, and chuckled at me, โ€œLook at you, if you want to argue back, go ahead and argue back. Look, youโ€™re making a fool of yourself in front of others.

"And Reynaldo doesnโ€™t take you seriously anymore. Donโ€™t threaten me with him in the future. Are you embarrassed or not?โ€

My fatherโ€™s words made me feel embarrassed and ashamed.

I kept my head down, afraid to look at Reynaldoโ€™s cold and mocking eyes.

The elevator door opened, my dad hummed and then carried Aiyana.

The elevator doors closed again, and the corridor was so quiet that it seemed like even the sound of a heartbeat could be heard.

Reynaldo still stood in front of me, cold and aloof, just like when my family went bankrupt; his aloofness and nobility made me feel lowly.

I was feeling very restless in my heart.

During this period, I had a falling out with him, but strangely, every time I was down and out, I would run into him.

However, in the past, he would mock me a little.

And now, he didnโ€™t say a word to me, but walked directly past me toward the elevator.

The sound of the elevator door opening came from behind.

I mechanically turned around and saw him walk in.

From start to finish, he didnโ€™t say a word to me, not even looking at me in the eye.

Oh!

Is he really planning to treat me as a stranger from now on?

It doesnโ€™t matter, let him be.

Anyway, we have never been well all along, except for those two days when he was hospitalized.

I returned home in a daze.

My mom had woken up and was sitting on the sofa daydreaming.

Afraid that my mom would worry, before coming back, I specifically went to find ice cubes to apply to my face until the palm print was not so obvious, then I came back.

My mother saw me come back and was clearly stunned.

She hesitated for two seconds before smiling at me and saying, โ€œYouโ€™re back, where did you go?โ€

โ€œOh, I went out to buy some fruit.โ€

I placed the fruit I was holding on the coffee table and asked her, โ€œDid you see the note I left for you? I warmed up the food in the pot, have you eaten?โ€

My mother didnโ€™t say anything; she just looked at me.

I glanced at the dining table.
