When I came out of the hotel, I breathed a sigh of relief.

    Just now at the hotel, my hand was always in my pocket, holding that fruit knife.

    At this moment, the palms of my hands were all sweaty.

    Fortunately, the deal was made, and Matthew didn’t arrest me to threaten Reynaldo.

    This time, I would say I “won the bet“.

    However, just the thought of having to hurt Reynaldo after New Year’s Eve made my heart feel particrly heavy andplicated.

    When we returned to the vi, it was already after three in the afternoon.

    The two children had just woken up from their nap, still feeling

    groggy.

    I yed with them for a while, then went back to my room to check my phone, waiting to see if Matthew had done as I asked.

    By evening, there was still no news online.

    I couldn’t help feeling a little anxious, worrying that Matthew might change his mind.

    Winter nights fall quickly, and as darkness approached, my anxiety grew.

    Just as I was thinking about whether to give Matthew a call, I stumbled

    upon the news that Kimberly had withdrawn herwsuit.

    I carefully scanned the news.

    The news reported that Kimberly told the media reporters that day that she was just ying with Johnathan, and Johnathan identally hurt her, so she wanted to withdraw thewsuit.

    Regardless of whether what she said was true or not, since the intiff withdrew thewsuit, coupled with Reynaldo’s connections, the jail immediately released the person.

    Just as the news of Kimberly withdrawing herwsuit was released, Reynaldo’s phone rang…..

    “Where are you now?” Reynaldo asked urgently, his voice tense.

    I was stunned for a moment, then smiled at him and asked, “What’s up? Are you at home?”

    “When Kimberly dropped the charges, Johnathan had already been released, did you know?” Reynaldo asked me, his voice still somewhat

    tense.

    Iughed and said, “I know, I just saw this news.

    After a pause, I said happily, “That’s great, then we don’t have to deal with Matthew.”

    “Why did Kimberly suddenly withdraw thewsuit?” Reynaldo asked again, his voice heavy.

    I knew what Reynaldo was worried about.

    Iughed lightly and said, “I don’t know, maybe she suddenly had a change of heart?”

    “Don’t you think it was Matthew who made her drop thewsuit?”

    I didn’t respond.

    Reynaldo continued, his voice tense, “Why did Matthew suddenly ask her to withdraw thewsuit? You and I both know that what Matthew wants is to take you away from me, to make me suffer.”

    “So, Esmeralda, tell me honestly, did you agree to any conditions with him?”

    In thest sentence, there was a strong sense of urgency and fear in Reynaldo’s voice.

    My heart twitched involuntarily.

    Iughed and said, “No, I was just staying at home, how could I have agreed to any conditions with him.”

    “Besides, if I had really agreed to go to Roxafito with him, I wouldn’t be at home right now, would I?”

    “Are you really at home?” Reynaldo asked, his voice tense.

    Iughed and said, “Sure, how about we watch a video together?”

    Reynaldo fell silent for a few seconds and said, “I’ll be back soon, you just wait for me at home.”

    “Okay.”

    I hung up the phone, and my heart became even moreplicated.

    What Reynaldo feared most was “me leaving him.”

    After New Year’s Eye, I had to follow through on my promise to Matthew and hurt him.

    The wind blew strongly again at night.

    The cold wind rustled the dry branches and beat against the window, appearing particrly deste and deste.
