Chapter 544

Kimberly immediately burst into laughter, as if she had heard a joke.

She said, “Ms. Duffy, you are overthinking it. My friend just happened to have an urgent matter to attend to, so I let her leave first.”

“Ms. Duffy, what do you mean by that just now? Do my friends have to introduce you to me before we can get to know each other?”

Seeing that she was always unwilling to tell the truth, I stopped beating around the bush.

I went straight to the point and asked her, “Was that woman you hired specifically to harm my father just now, right?”

Kimberly immediately put on an innocent face and said, “Ms. Duffy, what are you talking about? I don’t even know your father, why would I hire someone to harm him?”

“You pretend less here!”

I approached her a few steps, squinted my eyes, and coldly warned her, “I’m telling you, you better not think about harming my family. If I find out that woman you hired to harm my family, I won’t let you off the hook!”

“Who did you not let go?”

No sooner had I finished speaking than a familiar cold voice sounded behind me.

My heart trembled fiercely, and my back stiffened for a moment.

It was Reynaldo’s voice.

Oh!

I said, wherever Kimberly was, Reynaldo would definitely be there.

“Reynaldo!”

Kimberly immediately ran over and said to Reynaldo pitifully, “Ms. Duffy seems to have misunderstood something about me.”

I turned around expressionless and saw Kimberly intimately linking arms with Reynaldo, looking aggrieved.

Reynaldo stared at me quietly, his eyes still cold.

I sneered in my heart.

It doesn’t matter anymore.

He loved Kimberly in whatever way he wanted.

But my family, I absolutely would not allow this woman to harm them in any way.

I shifted my gaze away from Reynaldo’s face and looked coldly at Kimberly, “Don’t pretend here. If you dare to harm my family, no matter who is protecting you, I will make you pay.”

“Reynaldo…” Kimberly’s expression became more and more aggrieved, tears welling up as she looked at Reynaldo, “Ms. Duffy doesn’t know what’s wrong either; she insists that I am plotting against her family. I am just a weak woman, without power or influence, how could I plot against her family?”

“Besides, I don’t even know her family. I have no grudges with them. Is it necessary for me to hurt her family?”

“Are you willing to let that woman just now confront me face to face!” I couldn’t help but growl.

Reynaldo’s eyes cooled down, his tone icy, “What’s the matter? Take your time to explain.”

I sneered in my heart and cast a resentful glance at him.

He also said that Kimberly was just a little sister.

Look, I just raised my voice a little and spoke a bit harshly to Kimberly, and he immediately gave me a cold look.

Oh!

The words of men really cannot be trusted!

Reynaldo also gave me a cold glance and then lowered his gaze to ask Kimberly, “What exactly happened?”

When he asked Kimberly, his tone was gentle.

This feeling, as if back to the beginning, he protected Kimberly everywhere.

Kimberly shed tears, speaking softly and weakly.

“I don’t know what happened. Just when you went to buy me milk tea, I happened to run into a friend I had recently met…”

Upon hearing Kimberly’s words, I instinctively glanced at Reynaldo’s hands.

The man was indeed holding a cup of milk tea in his hand.

I sarcastically pursed my lips, silently shifted my gaze away, but soon felt a cold gaze fall on me.
