Chapter1068


    The next moment, I was scared to shiver by the scene in front of me.


    Reynaldo stood in front of Kimberly, holding the de tightly in one hand.


    The ring blood crazily overflowed from between his fingers, dripping onto the ground.


    My chest heaved violently, shaking all over, and my throat felt as if it were blocked, unable to utter a word.


    He let go of my hand, ced it on my shoulder, and looked at me with concern, “Esmeralda, you promised me.”


    Yes, I promised him that I wouldn’t impulsively kill Kimberly like that again.


    I will not get myself into trouble because of Kimberly again.


    But at this moment, what was I doing again?


    The man held the de of the knife tightly in my hand, the bright red blood stinging my eyes.


    I actually hurt Reynaldo.


    Realizing this, a mix of sadness, anger, frustration, and self- me surged in my heart, making it hard for me to breathe.


    Emotions copsed in an instant, and my temples


    robbed with

    pain.


    I felt ufortable all over, inside and out, as if I were going to die.


    I trembled, covering my head with my hands, and a scream finally escaped from my throat.


    The next second, my body fell into a warm embrace.


    Reynaldo’s deep voice sounded above my head, “Esmeralda, don’t be afraid, I’m here, I believe in you.”


    I stared nkly at the bloody knife lying on the ground, tears uncontrobly streaming down my face.


    Just a few days ago, I had promised him that I wouldn’t be so impulsive again.


    But I still didn’t do it, still didn’t control my emotions.


    Not only that, I also stabbed him.


    “Sorry, sorry…” I murmured, not daring to even touch his hand.


    Reynaldo gently patted my back,forting me, “It’s not your fault, Esmeralda, I’m not hurt, not at all.”


    Feeling the warmth and sense of security provided by the man, a sense of inexplicable grievance surged up in my heart.


    I looked at Quentin, with different expressions on his face behind him, and my father, who finally couldn’t help but burst into tears and cry out, “But they are all ndering me, Reynaldo, they are all ndering me.”

    They didn’t want me as their daughter, didn’t want me as their sister.


    Reynaldo, I only had you, only you…”


    Quentin turned his face away, with a hint of tears glistening in the corner of his eyes.


    My father hung his head, silent.


    Reynaldo held me tighter and said in a deep voice, “They don’t want you, I want you.”


    I will not leave you, I will never leave you again in this lifetime.


    Even if the whole world doesn’t believe in you, I believe in you.


    “Esmeralda, you were my everything, you were my destiny,” said Reynaldo.


    I tightly held onto hispel, and the intense fluctuating emotions at that moment gradually calmed down.


    Reynaldo stroked my long hair and whispered, “Let’s go, Esmeralda, I’ll take you home.”


    I nodded nkly, “Okay.”


    Just as Reynaldo was hugging me and leaving, Kimberly suddenly, without caring about her image, grabbed Reynaldo’s


    arm.


    “Reynaldo, how could you believe her? Have you forgotten how Ms. Versta died?”


    Reynaldo coldly shook off her hand, saying, “I will investigate the

    true cause of my mother’s death myself, you don’t need to bother.”


    “Reynaldo…”


    Kimberly looked at him incredulously, “What <i>do </i><i>you </i>mean by this? Do you really believe what she said, that Ms. Versta is me…”


    Reynaldo gave her a cold look.


    Kimberly trembled all over, her face pale and unable to speak.


    She probably thought that my dad suddenly turning against me and helping her this time further confirmed my guilt of killing Mika.
