Chapter35


    But they have alle over, and it is indeed not easy to turn back now.


    I could only find a suitable excuseter, and then leave.


    “Ms. Duffy!”


    Kimberly saw me and a sh of joy crossed her face. “I wanted to invite you to my birthday party from the beginning, but Reynaldo wouldn’t allow it. Luckily, Johnathan brought you here.”


    I instinctively nced at Reynaldo.


    The man had no expression on his face, and his dark, gloomy eyes exuded indifference and detachment.


    I mocked myself in my heart.


    This was his sweetheart’s birthday party, and naturally, he didn’t want me, his ex–wife, to spoil the mood.


    Although I really wanted to leave in my heart, I still had to maintain a polite demeanor on the surface.


    I smiled at Kimberly and said, “Sorry, I didn’t know it was your birthday when I came, so I didn’t prepare a gift. I’ll make it up to youter.”


    “It’s okay, as long as you cane.” Kimberly smiled innocently.


    No wonder Reynaldo liked her.


    Such a pure, beautiful, and gentle girl indeed lived up to the description of “moonlight“.

    Lavonne suddenly tugged at my arm and whispered to me, “Is she Reynaldo’s girlfriend?”


    I didn’t speak and pulled Lavonne to sit in the corner.


    Unfortunately, Johnathan also sat down with us.


    I stared at him gloomily and asked, “Why are you following me?”


    Johnathan chuckled and said, “How could I possibly follow you? Later, I will be drinking heavily with your best friend. How can I enjoy myself if I ?it far away?”


    I wanted to say something more, but Lavonne grabbed my arm and whispered, “You go with him, I’ll make sure he gets drunkter and avenge you.”


    I helplessly smiled at Lavonne.


    Lavonne had a good alcohol tolerance, but Johnathan’s alcohol tolerance wasn’t necessarily worse either.


    At this moment, someone teased Johnathan, “Hey, Mr. Dup, you’re quite something, bringing two femalepanions at once.”


    “Ah, no way! I am not hispanion!” Lavonne retorted straightforwardly.


    The other people in the private room said, “So Ms. Duffy was Mr. Dup’spanion?”


    “Oh dear, if we remember correctly, Ms. Duffy was still Mr. Humphrey’s ex–wife, right?”


    “Tsk tsk, Ms. Dully is really something. After her family fell on hard times, she managed to quickly get involved with Mr. Dup.”


    I looked at Johnathan in frustration, hoping that he could exin a thing.


    or two.


    To my surprise, he actually touched his own nose, looking as if he hadn’t. heard those words.


    The cold gaze drifted over again.


    Reynaldo swayed the wine in his cup,ughing at me.


    I tightened my grip on the hand by my side and said calmly, “You misunderstood, I was not Johnathan’spanion.”


    “Well, since you’ve hooked up with Mr. Dup, don’t try to make excuses.”


    “Well, Mr. Dup said he would bring a femalepanion tonight, and you are the one brought by Mr. Dup. If you are not hispanion, then who else could it be?”


    I was about to retort when Kimberly suddenly said, “Enough, you guys. If Ms. Duffy can win Johnathan’s favor, that’s her ability. You don’t need to talk about her anymore.”


    “Oh dear, we were really sorry for Mr. Humphrey. We all knew how this woman used to bully him back then.”


    “Yeah, why does she still get to be


    in our s


    Lavonne eximed angrily, “What do you mean ‘still able to appear in your circle“? Hrious! How noble is your circle?”


    “Go away… You, a Miss abandoned by the Av family, have no right to speak here. Go away!”


    Lavonne was furious.


    I shook her hand and whispered to the crowd, “Since no one wees. us, we won’t disturb your enjoyment either. Goodbye.”


    After saying that, I wanted to grab Lavonne and go.


    I didn’t want to stay here in the first ce.


    Johnathan wanted to stop me, but it was at this moment that Reynaldo, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.


    “Either don’te in the first ce, or if you doe, then stay


    obediently. This birthday party is not something you cane and go as you please.”


    The man’s tone was cold, with a hint of displeasure.


    I guess he felt that I spoiled the atmosphere of his loved one’s birthday party.


    I pursed my lips, and a few traces of sourness and difort welled up in my heart.


    If I had known this was Kimberly’s birthday party, I wouldn’t havee even if you killed me.


    Lavonne angrily said to me, “Reynaldo is so rude, how could he speak like that?”


    Also, look at the ne that woman is wearing on her neck, it seems to be a limited edition from Bvlgari, worth several tens of millions. Could it be a gift from Reynaldo?
