Chapter288
The snow outside was falling heavily, and the snowflakes were swirling under the streetlights, like soft goose feathers.
Did Reynaldo go to Kimberly’s room, or did he go outside?
I stood by the window for a long time before returning to bed.
It was already four o’clock in the morning, and I was increasingly unable to fall asleep.
I was lying in bed scrolling through my phone until it was almost dawn before I fell asleep.
Waking up again, I was awakened by a sudden knocking on the door.
I sat up, feeling dizzy and lightheaded.
Staring at the unfamiliar room in front of me, I was stunned for quite a while before realizing that I was now on a business trip with Reynaldo, staying in a hotel.
I glanced at my phone and it was already 1 o’clock in the afternoon.
Knock, knock, knock!
The knocking on the door was still echoing.
I put on my coat and got up to open the door.
Perhaps due to staying up all night, I felt dizzy and light–headed, as if walking on cotton.
I thought to myself, I really can’t stay up late anymore in the future.
I opened the door, and Johnathan appeared at the doorway.
He was carrying a package box and asked me anxiously, “Esmie, are you okay? Why did it take you so long to open the door?”
I shook my head and said, “It’s okay, I was just sleeping.”
“Oh…”
He said, walked in, smiled ambiguously at me, “What, were you too intense with Reynaldo last night, tossing and turning all night? So you slept in until now?”
I
gave him a cold look and remained silent.
He placed the box on the coffee table and muttered to himself with a puzzled look, “Hey, wait a minute, according to this, he should have been very satisfied last night. Why does he look so pale and grim today, as if someone owed him billions?”
I lowered my eyes and sat on the sofa without saying a word.
He glanced at me and asked quietly, “Esmie, did you not make him comfortable last night?”
“Tsk!”
I glared at him impatiently.
He quickly covered his mouth and said, “Okay, okay, I won’t say it, won’t say it.”
After a while, he pushed the takeout box towards me and said, “Hurry up and eat. Reynaldo asked me to bring this to you.”
I was stunned for a moment, remembering the scene when Reynaldo left angrily last night.

I pursed my lips and asked quietly, “Where is he?”
“He went to meet with clients.”
Johnathan leaned back against the sofa, took out a cigarette case, prepared to smoke.
I frowned and said, “No smoking in my room.”
and
Johnathan was stunned for a moment, then he pursed his lips and said, “The real culprit, and Reynaldo can smoke, why can’t I smoke?”
Esmic, you can’t treat me differently like this. After all, I came back specifically to bring you food.”
“When Reynaldo was around, I didn’t allow him to smoke,” I said.

Little did Johnathan know, he widened his eyes and exclaimed, “Really? That guy is such a heavy smoker, you mean if you tell him not to smoke, he actually won’t?”
“Was he a heavy smoker?”
“Well, he used to smoke a lot, especially during the difficult stages of starting a business. He would smoke many cigarettes in a day.”
I wondered, “But in the three years we were married, I never saw him smoke once.”
This time, Johnathan was completely incredulous.
He laughed at me and said, “Stop joking with me. Otherwise, he would dodge and deliberately avoid letting you see.”
