Chapter210
Trevin is just a great example.
Thinking about Trevin’s fate, my heart suddenly trembled.
Winston was his younger brother, although they had different mothers. they were still blood brothers. He would never do anything to harm Winston, no matter what.
But I was in danger.
I didn’t want to lose an arm or a leg, I just wanted to live my peaceful little life.
The chilling aura emanating from Reynaldo’s body could be clearly felt even from a meter away.
Honestly, these people were so annoying.
They competed secretly like this, but in the end, it was not me who suffered.
“Mr. Humphrey, please let go!” I said, and I tried to pry Winston’s hand off, but it was of no use.
Reynaldo suddenly chuckled, “Do I need to use tools to separate you guys?”
In the cold words, there was a full threat.
I started to doubt if Winston didn’t let go of me, he would come with a knife and chop off my hand.
With Trevin’s example in mind.
I was extremely scared and didn’t care about Winston’s feelings.
I coldly said to him, “Let go, Mr. Humphrey. please have some self- respect!”
Winston seemed visibly stunned, and then he gave me a bitter smile before releasing my wrist.
And there was a clear red mark on my wrist, indicating how tightly he had just gripped it.
Suddenly, a sneer came from beside.
I looked up and found Reynaldo staring at my wrist, with a cold smirk on his lips.
What are you laughing at?
All day long, with a look of disdain towards me here and there, I wonder what there is to mock about the red marks on my wrist!
I berated myself in my heart, silently pulling down my sleeves to cover the red marks on my wrist.
At this moment, Winston and Anton had already exited the elevator.
I was the only one still inside.
I quickly dragged the table outside.
This time Anton didn’t help me, and I just got angry at Winston, so it’s not good to ask him for help either.
As for Reynaldo, the man was staring at me coldly, with an extremely indifferent expression.
So I was even less likely to speak to him.
In the end, I could only do it by myself, awkwardly pushing and dragging the table out.
Just as I finally managed to get the table out of the elevator, my forehead dripping with sweat from exhaustion, Winston suddenly coldly said to Reynaldo, “Ralda, I’m taking her away.”
I was so shocked that my hand trembled, and I collapsed onto the table.
Reynaldo chuckled and cast a chilling, teasing gaze at me.
I glanced around and quickly said to Winston, “I’m not leaving. The treatment Mr. Humphrey has given me is very good, so I’ll stay here.”
“Ralda!”
Winston frowned at me, refusing to give up.
Reynaldo chuckled at me, with one hand in his pocket, “Or maybe I should let you choose for yourself?”
Stay here or go with him, it’s your choice, so that certain people won’t say I’m forcing or tempting you.
Winston, upon hearing this, immediately looked at me with anticipation and said, “Ralda, did you hear that? He’s letting you choose for yourself.”
“Come with me, Ralda. I assure you that the treatment I will give you will not be worse than his…”
I watched silently as a playful smile curled up at the corner of Reynaldo’s lips.
He said it was up to me to choose, but in fact, it was a way to make me face the reality myself.
He was just reminding me that no matter how I chose, I couldn’t escape from his palm.
“Ralda!”
Seeing that I remained silent for a while, Winston couldn’t help but urge me, “Come on. Ralda, choose to go with me, okay?”
Although choosing to go with Winston, it would be convenient to escape this city in the future.
But Reynaldo would never let me go with Winston.
I knew best how ruthless he was.
I pursed my lips and said, “Mr. Humphrey, I wouldn’t go with you. I liked it here, and I wanted to stay and work here.”
“Ralda…” Winston looked at me, his expression filled with hurt.
At first, when I saw his expression, I still felt a hint of reluctance in my heart, after all, there was still a bit of affection from our younger days.
And now, I no longer have any feelings in my heart.
I didn’t want to become a sacrificial lamb
in their power struggle.
I said lightly, “Mr. Humphrey, you came to talk to our Mr. Humphrey, so I won’t hinder you.”
Struggling, I half–carried the office desk towards the Secretariat.
I could clearly feel several pairs of eyes shooting at me from behind.
