Chapter 572

He shook my hand and smiled at me, saying, โ€œItโ€™s late, you should go back and have dinner first.โ€

โ€œWell, then Iโ€™ll go back and cook some food to bring to you.โ€

โ€œOkay.โ€

Reynaldo nodded, his eyes filled with a gentle smile, making my heart feel sweet.

I said to Mikaela, โ€œMom, Iโ€™m going back first, see you laterโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhat? Shut up!โ€

Mikaela instantly realized what was happening and suddenly growled at me.

Reynaldo frowned and said in a displeased tone, โ€œShe is my wife, your daughter-in-law, not your mother, what should you call her?โ€

โ€œYou must have a lot of opinions if I call you something else.โ€

โ€œYouโ€ฆโ€ Mikaela was so angry that her face turned red.

I gestured with my finger to Reynaldo and said to him slightly reproachfully, โ€œDonโ€™t talk to Mom like that. I used to have a bad reputation, so itโ€™s normal for her to have opinions about me. We have a long way to go, letโ€™s communicate with Mom slowly, she will definitely like me.โ€

Hehe, green tea, who doesnโ€™t know how to act.

Reynaldo stifled a laugh and nodded. โ€œHmm, you make a good point.โ€

And so, Reynaldo and I were showing affection to each other openly, making Mikaela and Kimberly green with envy.

Especially Kimberly, that fragile and kind false face could hardly be maintained.

In the resentful eyes of Mikaela and Kimberly, I left gracefully with my bag in hand.

Just as I walked out of the ward, I heard Mikaela yelling at Reynaldo.

With each word filled with anger, each word filled with blame, even listing one by one my faults and shortcomings.

In the morning, Mikaelaโ€™s attitude towards me left me feeling a little disappointed and hurt.

That night, my heart was filled with sweetness. As long as Reynaldo supported me, I was not afraid of anything.

When I got back, my mom had already prepared the meal, but she hadnโ€™t eaten yet. She was sitting on the sofa waiting for me.

When she saw me coming back, she quickly got up and said, โ€œThe food is cold. Iโ€™ll go heat it up for you.โ€

I quickly took the plate from her hand and said with a smile, โ€œYou rest for a while, Iโ€™ll go reheat it.โ€

My mother brought two more dishes and followed me to the kitchen.

She looked at me carefully and asked with a smile, โ€œRalda seems to be in a good mood, is something good happening?โ€

โ€œWell, I made up with Reynaldo,โ€ I said.

My mother laughed and said, โ€œThatโ€™s great, Iโ€™ve always said that Reynaldo is a good kid, worth trusting. Now that you have made up, I can finally be at ease.โ€

In the midst of speaking, a fleeting sadness and reluctance passed through her eyes so quickly that I thought I must have been mistaken. But her red eyes were real.

My heart skipped a beat and I hurriedly asked, โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong with you? Is it because of Dadโ€ฆโ€

โ€œNo,โ€ my mom quickly shook her head and said with a smile, โ€œIโ€™m just happy, very happy, that you and Reynaldo have settled down.โ€

I glanced at my mom, feeling a vague unease in my heart. She must still be upset and distressed about my dadโ€™s affair, after all, decades of feelings cannot be let go of easily.

No way!

About the woman my dad cheated with, I decided to ask Reynaldo to help me investigate. If Kimberly really wanted to harm my family, I would definitely not be nice to her!

During the hot meal, I deliberately saved some.
