Chapter 707
Anton laughed self-deprecatingly, “Yes, if he knew Esmeralda was innocent, he wouldn’t let her suffer injustice no matter what, so that’s why I said I’m not as good as him.”
Even in dealing with the matter of Matthew, if it were me, I might not have thought of retaliating against Matthew. After all, he was a good partner in cooperation. On the contrary, if I spent so much money and effort to retaliate against him, it would undoubtedly be hurting the enemy and hurting myself.
He finished speaking, looked at me steadily, with a sad expression, “Perhaps… from the moment I left that small town, I was destined to lose you.”
Although he was reserved and contradictory in his emotions, at least he was always chasing after you. As for me, after all these years, I have done nothing except keep you hidden in my heart…
“That’s enough.”
I interrupted him lightly. “It’s meaningless to talk about this now. Please ask Mr. Palmer to send someone to take us to the airport, or we can take a taxi ourselves.”
This was already the third time I had made such a request.
I really didn’t want to have any relationship with these people now.
Anton looked at me deeply, and his eyes immediately turned red.
“I know you blame me…”
“You are wrong, I don’t blame you.” I looked at him calmly, truly not blaming him. “You are protecting your family, which is understandable; after all, I have no relation to you.”
Anton turned his face away, a tear at the corner of his eye.
“No matter what, just stay here for now. When you decide where you want to go, I will take you there.”
After all, you were pregnant now and your body had not fully recovered, so it was inconvenient to go anywhere.
“And I am a doctor, I could take better care of you and the baby.”
I sat quietly, unmoved.
Vonnie gently pulled my hand and said, “Ralda, although he is despicable, what he said is true. You are pregnant now, very weak, and really not suitable for long journeys. Let’s settle down here first, and then look online to see which places have a good environment and are suitable for living.”
“Once we have chosen the place, shall we go together?”
I didn’t say anything.
Vonnie shook my arm and said, “Come on, Ralda, I am really tired and hungry.”
“And you must be hungry too. Even if you’re not hungry, the baby in your belly must be hungry.”
With Vonnie’s strong persuasion, I finally agreed to stay temporarily.
Anton was very happy. He came over to help me out of the helicopter, but I avoided his hand.
Vonnie quickly supported me and said to Anton, “You’d better go in and have your servant prepare some food for us.”
“Mr. Palmer, the meal is all ready, just waiting for everyone to come in and eat,” the butler outside quickly said before Anton could speak.
Vonnie sighed and asked Anton, “This villa is like a castle, is it really bought by you? It must be very expensive, right?”
“Um.”
Anton suddenly glanced at me and whispered, “There was once a little girl who said she loved snow. If she could live in a castle when it snowed, she could be like the ice princess in the movie.”
After Anton finished saying this, he turned and walked away.
Vonnie was confused, “What does he mean? What does this have to do with buying this villa?”
And I roughly understood the meaning of his words.
Perhaps I said such a sentence to him when I was young, and then he kept it in his heart.
