Chapter1076


    Anton pursed his lips and remained silent.


    I took a deep breath sadly and said, “No wonder you looked strange at that time, always hesitating to speak.”


    I thought you were only hiding Essie’s illness from me, but it turns out you were also hiding this from me.


    So, why didn’t you tell me from the beginning?


    “Even back when I was nning to go back to Freybourne to have Reynaldo’s baby, you didn’t say a word.”


    “I told you, wouldn’t youe back to find him?”


    She just didn’t wait for my answer.


    A cold and self–deprecating voice suddenly sounded behind me.


    “So, you came back to Freybourne just to have a baby with me?”


    I shuddered all over and turned around quickly.


    Reynaldo was just standing not far behind me.


    He was dusty and tired, with red eyes, looking at me quietly.


    The wound on his hand must have split open.


    The originally bandaged gauze was somewhat messy, covered in bloodstains.


    My heart skipped a beat, and I subconsciously walked towards him,

    but he suddenly took two steps back,


    I froze all over, my footstepsing to a sudden halt.


    “Reynaldo…”


    I called out to him, my voice hoarse and choked.


    He smiled at me, smiling very pale and self–deprecatingly


    “No wonder you were always trying to sleep with me during that <b>time</b>, turns out it was to get pregnant and save Essie.”


    In other words, during this period, you were kind to me, your <b>warmth </b>towards me, your love, were all purposeful, right?


    If it weren’t for Essie’s illness, would you never think of me? Would you nevere to find me?


    Oh, Esmeralda, it must have been so hard for you, to have to sleep with a man you despise in order to save your daughter’s life…”


    “No way!”


    I spoke hastily.


    He shook his head with a sad and disappointed look, saying, “Essie is my daughter, do you think I wouldn’t try to save her? Do you have to hide it from me so hard?”


    “If you had really sessfully conceived this time, would you have already left me with Essie and Roddy, right?”


    I shook my head desperately, tears kept streaming down.


    Reynaldo chuckled lightly.


    He seemed exhausted, as if he had had enough.


    He said to me with red eyes, “Esmeralda, you say you love me, trust me, but you have never done it, have you?”


    “It’s not like that!” I looked at him sadly, not even knowing how to exin to him.


    At this moment, Anton suddenly walked over.


    He said to Reynaldo in a low voice, “Don’t me Esmeralda either. Esmeralda only found out about Essie’s illnesster.”


    When she had just given birth to the baby, her physical condition was


    very poor.


    I was also afraid that she couldn’t bear the blow, so I kept these things from her.


    “I think she was also afraid that you would worry, so she didn’t tell you about Essie’s illness.”


    Reynaldo looked at me deeply, he looked at me for a long time, until his crimson eyes slowly becameplex and indistinguishable.


    In those eyes, there was sadness, disappointment, heartache, and self- mockery.


    He muttered to me, “It’s strange to say, I shouldn’t have driven you out of Freybourne.”


    If you had not been driven out of Freybourne, you would not have gone to Yoripero, nor would you have fallen.


    It’s me, it’s me who caused you so much pain, it’s me who made you unable to conceive again.


    “I treated you so badly, yet I still fantasized that you would fall in love with me.
