Chapter 545

Without looking up, I also knew that Reynaldo was watching me.

Kimberly continued, sounding aggrieved, as if I had bullied her. "I was just chatting with my friend for a few minutes, and then she had something urgent to do, so I let her go first. I didn’t expect Ms. Duffy to suddenly run over to argue with me, saying that my friend was hired by me on purpose to harm her family. I really felt inexplicable; I don’t even know her family…"

"Enough!"

I couldn’t stand seeing this woman pretending. I coldly snorted, "I said, do you dare to let that woman come over and confront me face to face?"

Reynaldo cast a glance at her, as if asking for her opinion.

Kimberly wiped the tears from her face and said, "What’s the harm? I’ll call her right now, just not sure if she’s available at the moment." She said, and actually took out her phone, dialed a number.

The call was quickly connected, and she said into the phone, "Hello, Eileen? Are you done with your work? It’s like this, I have a friend who wants to meet you. Do you have time to come over for a bit?"

"Well, at the mall where we just met, there is a cafe on the fifth floor. When do you have time to come over?"

"Okay, okay."

She finished speaking and put away her phone, then turned to me and Reynaldo, saying, "My friend said she has something to do in the morning and can only come in the afternoon."

Reynaldo looked at me and said coldly, "Are you satisfied now?"

I ignored him and just asked Kimberly, "What time in the afternoon?"

"I’m not sure about that either. How about I give you a call when she arrives?"

I frowned, feeling that this was not appropriate. What if she plays some tricks again?

After I remained silent for a while, Reynaldo impatiently asked me, "I have done everything as you requested; what else are you not satisfied with?"

In line with Reynaldo’s words, Kimberly’s expression became even more pitiful. It was as if I were a relentless and malicious person, specifically bullying her.

I didn’t bother to watch the woman pretending. I turned around and left. However, I had already entered the elevator when Reynaldo unexpectedly caught up. His big hand blocked the elevator door that was about to close, and then his tall and slender figure walked in.

I frowned and moved to the corner, creating distance between us.

He, however, approached me directly and cornered me in the elevator. I raised my eyes and looked at him expressionlessly, "What’s up?" He had just been protecting Kimberly like that; I don’t think he suddenly caught up with me to make up. So, he was either for Kimberly’s sake.

Sure enough, he said in a cold tone, "Kimberly may be a bit stubborn and have a lot on her mind sometimes, but she has a good heart."

My heart grew cold. He really wasn’t blind after all, and he also knew Kimberly’s mind. He just deliberately wanted to favor Kimberly. So, in his heart, it was obvious who was more important.

I didn’t want to say much to him. I pushed him away and wanted to leave, but he pulled me back, leaning against the elevator…

"Reynaldo!" I glared at him angrily.

He lowered his gaze and stared at me, his icy eyes showing no sign of softening. I sneered in my heart, turned my face away, didn’t want to look at him, and didn’t want to talk to him.
