If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have stayed in that company for so long, and I wouldn’t have encountered Reynaldo when I was raising
investments.
Thinking of Reynaldo, an indescribable affection flashed through my heart.
“Ralda, hurry up and eat, the noodles are getting cold:”
Lavonne suddenly reminded me.
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang, and I saw it was an unfamiliar number.
She didn’t think much either and answered directly, “Hello, who is
this?”
The next second, her face changed and she stared at me with wide.
eyes.
I tilted my head in confusion and was about to ask her what was
wrong.
She suddenly made a gesture for me to be quiet, and I quickly held back the sound that was about to come out.
Lavonne calmly smiled at her phone and said, “So it was Mr. Humphrey.”
I trembled all over.
Mr. Humphrey?
Reynaldo?
Look at Lavonne’s reaction, it must be Reynaldo!
What’s up, Reynaldo suddenly called Lavonne, what’s up?
Lavonne glanced at me and then turned on the speakerphone of her phone.
I held my breath and stared at the phone.
Reynaldo’s gloomy voice quickly came from the other end of the phone.
“Where was Esmeralda?”
I was so shocked that I couldn’t say a word.
Reynaldo actually found me and brought Lavonne here.
And Lavonne indeed was a master of performance, instantly entering into the state of acting.
She looked worriedly at her phone and said, “What happened to Ralda? Is she missing? She didn’t come to see me!”
Reynaldo, did you do something to Ralda again? Did you make her angry and leave?”
I admired Lavonne and gave her a thumbs up.
Look at this anxious tone, it doesn’t seem like acting at all.
Lavonne smiled at me proudly.

However, the next second, Reynaldo’s gloomy voice came from the phone: “Don’t think that I don’t know she’s with you. You tell her, if she doesn’t show up within an hour, don’t blame me for being rude to her!”
I was shocked when Reynaldo actually guessed that I was with
Lavonne.
Lavonne gestured to me not to panic.
She continued to act: “Are you crazy? Ralda is not with me at all. If you lost her, you should go find her quickly. Why are you scaring me here?”
Moreover, you called her and went to her parents‘ place.
And, if anything happens to Ralda, you better watch out. Don’t think that just because you’ve become successful, I’m afraid of you.
“I’ll say it again…” Reynaldo ignored Lavonne’s words.
He spoke to me as if he was certain that I am currently with Lavonne. His words were directed at me, word by word, with a voice as cold as ice: “Esmeralda, if you don’t appear in front of me within an hour, then… don’t blame me for being impolite.”
He hung up the phone after saying that, but there seemed to be a lingering coldness in the air.
I nervously gripped the fork.
What should I do?
What did he want to do? He wouldn’t hurt my parents, would he?
Lavonne patted my shoulder and comforted, “Don’t be afraid of him,
who doesn’t know how to threaten people!”
Moreover, Reynaldo acted like a lunatic. He divorced you but still refused to let you go.
How come you want to spend your whole life like this? Why?
It seems that he is really narrow–minded. You were just a little bit bad. to him before, and he actually wants to trap you for life. This man is really scary!
The problem is, in the past, I was not just a little bit bad to Reynaldo, but very bad indeed.
From Reynaldo’s tone just now, it was evident that he still resented me and his retaliation towards me was far from over.
I am pregnant now and I must not be found by him.
Otherwise, he would definitely have locked me up and after I gave birth to the baby, he would have taken my baby away.
The moment I thought about it, fear filled my heart.
Lavonne looked at me and anxiously said, “Ralda, don’t worry, hasn’t he come yet?”
And, don’t let his cold tone scare you, if you ask me, that man wasn’t that tough.
“Didn’t he treat you the same way you treated him before?”
But Reynaldo nowadays is no longer the same Reynaldo as before.
I rushed to Lavonne and said, “I have to go back now. The shanty town. is remote, and he definitely won’t be able to find it.”

“Then I will accompany you,” Lavonne s
anxiously.
I shook my head and said, “Reynaldo had already figured out that I was
with you, and I was afraid he would follow this trail to find me.”
