I pleaded with him, “Anton, tell me, how is Reynaldo? Please, tell me, how is he?”
Asking on and on, my tears fell uncontrollably.
I was really scared, scared that Reynaldo would get into trouble.
After all, he was stabbed three times, those three stabs were so heavy, and
he also lost so much blood.
Most importantly, I didn’t even know if he had been taken to the hospital.
If Anton had not brought him to the hospital, he would have been left alone in that dilapidated warehouse, surely doomed.
I dared not think further.
I tugged on Anton’s sleeve, my eyes red, and asked him, “Just tell me, where is he now?”
Anton looked at me expressionlessly, his eyes empty and desolate.
He spoke lightly, “Do you know why I hate him and the entire Humphrey family so much?”
I know, because his mother took your father away, but that was his mother’s fault, nothing to do with him.
“Anton, I beg you, tell me, how is he doing now?”
My heart clenched and ached, filled with fear.
Anton chuckled softly, “Not only because his mother took away my

father, but also because my father was killed by his father.”
I froze all over, unable to say a word in that instant.
Anton chuckled coldly, “Back then, his mother taking away my father
was bad enough, but his father stubbornly followed and harassed us. His father even sent people to beat my father mercilessly.”
Since then, my father fell ill and soon passed away.
It was all because of his parents that my sister and I became orphans. I hate him, I wish his whole family would die!
In the end, Anton said through gritted teeth, his once empty eyes instantly
filled with hatred.
I was trembling all over, unable to say a word.
Putting oneself in their shoes, if my parents were killed by someone like that, I would also wish those enemies to die.
So, I asked him to save Reynaldo, to save the son of his enemy really put him in a difficult position, didn’t it?
What can Reynaldo do?
If he had not saved Reynaldo, then Reynaldo would have died, died in that desolate outskirts, died in that dilapidated warehouse.
I covered my face in pain, not knowing what to do.
My mind was full of images of Reynaldo covered in blood.
His mind was full of scenes where snakes, insects, rats, and ants crawled on him, sucking his blood and biting his flesh.
I was almost going crazy.

No, I couldn’t leave him all alone there.
I was not qualified to let Anton go to save him, so I went to find him myself.
I was going to find him, no matter what, I was going to be with him.
With that in mind, I hastily got out of bed.
A sudden dizziness hit me, and I staggered unsteadily for a few steps, finally managing to steady myself by holding onto the edge of the bed.
I bit my lip, steadied my breath, and then walked out step by step.
Anton took a few steps forward and grabbed me, asking, “Where are you going?”
“I was going to find him,” I said in a deep voice, with a determined tone.
“Do you know where he is?” Anton looked at me expressionlessly, but there was always a hint of sadness in his eyes.
I looked at him and whispered, “Now I understand, there was such a deep–seated hatred between you and him.”
In the face of such hatred, I can understand if you didn’t save him.
