Chapter 287

I pursed my lips, and the heat on my body and the palpitations in my heart gradually dissipated.
I said to him, “Actually… I didn’t really want to ask you anything, I just wanted to ask you if it’s true that you’re going to give me a monthly salary of 100,000.”
“You lied!”
As soon as I finished speaking, he suddenly roared at me, “What you want to ask me, clearly is not this, clearly is not!”
“What I want to ask is this question, that hundred thousand monthly salary is very important to me, I hope Mr. Humphrey will keep his word.”
“ Mr. Humphrey?”
Reynaldo suddenly took a step back.
The gentle and soft feeling just now disappeared in an instant.
His dark eyes slowly turned crimson, with a visible flash of disappointment and self–mockery in his eyes.
He said, “I’ll give you one more chance, tell the truth!”
I suppressed the trembling in my heart and the inexplicable discomfort surging in my heart, and calmly said to him, “What I just said was the truth.”
“Esmeralda!”

He gritted his teeth and glared at me with anger and sorrow, “Why do you always do this, giving me hope and then crushing it with your own hands?”
Did you feel a sense of accomplishment by hurting me like this?
You are a heartless, selfish, malicious, and cold–blooded materialistic woman!
“I hate you!”
The tenderness and disappointment in his eyes just now had completely disappeared, leaving only a strong sense of hatred.
That hatred seemed to want to devour me.
He pushed me hard, and I quickly stepped back, my legs hitting the edge of the bed, causing my whole body to fall heavily onto the bed.
He smiled at me coldly and said, “I will never have any thoughts about you again. A woman like you, full of flaws and a heart of stone, is not worth anyone’s affection.”
“So… when you say this, does it mean that you… like me?”
I tightened the sheets and, in the moment he turned around, asked subconsciously.
The moment I asked the question, I regretted it.
He had been asking me about this question just now, and I had been avoiding it all the time. I had made up my mind not to ask it out.
It is ridiculous that, at this moment, the question came out so easily.
After all, my heart was not firm enough, was it?

Reynaldo froze for a moment.
He didn’t turn around, and a cold voice with a hint of sarcasm came: “Like you? Is that possible?”
He left as soon as he finished speaking, without any pause in his footsteps.
The door outside was slammed shut by him with a loud noise.
I lowered my head and smiled sadly.
So, that question shouldn’t have been asked, right?
Thinking of his angry departure, I laughed at myself, but my heart ached and waves of grievance surged.
He always condemned me as if I had hurt his heart.
But did he ever think about how he hurt me every time because of Kimberly
Emotions are mutual.
He couldn’t give me a definite love, so why should I respond to him definitively.
He could abandon me for Kimberly today, and he could also harm me and my child for Kimberly in the future.
This question, in itself, had no answer.
So, without fantasizing, without expecting, without opening up, you will never get hurt.
Was I wrong to protect myself like this?
