Really, Esmeralda, you can’t continue like this.
Since it has already been decided, I will live my own life from now on. I will no longer have any connection with him, and I cannot hold any illusions about him or have any further interactions with him.
I said calmly, “I’m glad Grandma is okay. Please tell her I’m sorry.”
“Esmeralda!” Reynaldo exclaimed angrily, “What do you mean? You didn’t come to the hospital to see Grandma?”
“Um.”
I broke the bracelet, so I didn’t have the face to see my grandmother again.
Moreover, Grandma’s senile dementia was unpredictable, sometimes. good and sometimes bad.
What if, when I came to find him, she forgot again that I’am her daughter–in–law and only remembered me as the bad person who stole and broke her bracelet?
In front of my grandmother, I was not afraid of being wronged, but I was afraid of provoking her further.
Reynaldo coldly asked on the phone, “Are you coming to the hospital
tomorrow or not?”
I tightly held onto my phone for a long time and said in a hesitant fone, “Tomorrow I had something to do and couldn’t go.”

I didn’t not want to go see my grandmother, I just had too many
concerns.
Apart from the first two, there was another reason why I wanted to completely sever all ties with Reynaldo.
“Fine, very well…” Reynaldo chuckled ominously on the other end of the phone, his tone icy and mocking, “You truly are the most heartless, cold–blooded woman I have ever encountered. Someone like you simply doesn’t deserve to be loved.”
He hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.
And in my ears, it seemed to still echo his cold sneer, echoing his final words.
A person like me, I am not worthy of being loved at all.
I looked at the lonely house and the broken kettle, smiled foolishly, but everything in front of me was blurry.
Yeah, it’s true, just as Reynaldo said, I was worthless and had no merits.
Who would like someone like me?
I didn’t even like myself.
I simply packed my suitcase and then took a shower and went to bed.
So many things happened in the past few days, it feels like a dream. when I look back.
I stared blankly at the shabby ceiling, even though I was very tired and sleepy, I just couldn’t fall asleep.

I don’t know how long had passed when suddenly a burst of chaotic footsteps, along with indistinct cursing and talking, came from the corridor.
It was like a few drunk people getting into an argument.
The soundproofing of the room was very poor, so the noise in the corridor seemed particularly loud and noisy.
When I first moved here, I didn’t feel secure at all.
As soon as I heard this sound, my nerves tightened a bit.
Suddenly, someone kicked my door a few times and shouted “Open the door” from outside.
I was startled, and my whole body instantly tensed up.
The man was still kicking the door outside, and the iron door made a particularly loud noise when kicked.
I climbed down from the bed anxiously and locked the door.
After the man kicked a few times, someone outside spoke, possibly telling him that he had entered the wrong room.
The sound of kicking the door finally ceased, and the footsteps. gradually faded away.
Until it was completely quiet outside, I felt as if all the strength in my body had been drained away, and I sat down on the ground weakly.
I looked at the window, which was shining with light, and a strong sense of pain and sadness gradually welled up in my heart.
I couldn’t help but mock myself.

In the end, I was the only one in the whole family who had not yet adapted to the transition from wealth to poverty.
Look, Quentin can live in such an environment, why can’t I?
And those ordinary hardworking workers, they could all afford to live. here, while I, someone who owes so much money and doesn’t have much money on me, what qualifications do I have to resist and nitpick?
I wiped away my tears, climbed onto the bed, and forced myself to fall asleep.
I have to go to work tomorrow, I can’t keep wasting my time like this anymore.
Starting from tomorrow, I will truly begin my new life.
A brand new life without Reynaldo!
The next day, when the sun shone in, it seemed to disperse the clouds and dispel all the gloom in my heart.
I finished washing up and felt refreshed.
I bought breakfast from a roadside stall and walked towards the bus stop at the village while eating.
There were a lot of people going to work early in the morning.
