Chapter 169
Trevin and a few of his coworkers beside him were hesitant to talk to him, only whispering and speculating about who this man was. They wondered if he might be someone important from the higher ranks at the construction site.
No wonder.
At this moment, Reynaldo, dressed in a tailored suit, looked exceptionally handsome. The inherent nobility exuded from him made people hesitate.
Trevin shook my sleeve and whispered, “Do you want to apologize to him, or maybe apologize to his girlfriend?”
I furrowed my brows and glared at Trevin.
I didn’t do anything wrong, why should I apologize to them? And apologize to Kimberly too?
Well, why?!
I stared at Reynaldo blankly.
This is a construction site, and he probably wouldn’t do anything to me either.
Reynaldo blew a smoke ring, glanced at me, and asked Trevin, “When did they start dating?”
Trevin was taken aback, “What?”
“When did you and your girlfriend get together?” Reynaldo asked
casually, flicking the cigarette ash while lowering his gaze.
I was just about to speak when Trevin quickly said, “Just, just a month ago.”
“One month ago?”
Reynaldo sneered and looked at me, “You really are impatient, willing to cat anything.”
“Enough!” I grumbled in frustration.
Trevin quickly tugged at my sleeve and whispered, “Don’t speak like that. This man looks wealthy and influential. We can’t afford to provoke him.”
Listen to me, apologize to him sincerely. If he is still not appeased, then apologize to his woman after work. Anyway, it’s just an apology, it won’t make much difference.”
I pulled my sleeves back in annoyance and didn’t want to deal with Trevin
anymore.
Trevin glanced at my impatient face and snorted, “Let me tell you, with your personality, it would be difficult for you to get by outside.”
I ignored him, and Trevin quickly nodded and bowed to Reynaldo, saying with a smile, “Sir, did she upset you and your woman at the restaurant yesterday? I apologize on her behalf.”
She, relying on her knowledge and appearance, is arrogant and proud. Let’s not argue with her.”
“Did you apologize for her?” Reynaldo chuckled lightly, lowered his gaze, and slowly said, “Why should you apologize for her?”
“This… I…”

It’s not surprising that Trevin stuttered.

Despite Reynaldo’s seemingly indifferent appearance, he was actually full of oppression.
None of the workers next to him dared to speak up.
I took two steps forward and asked Reynaldo in annoyance, “This is a construction site, so tell me, what exactly do you want?”
Trevin was startled and quickly pulled me back, reproaching, “Didn’t I tell you? Don’t speak to this gentleman in such a tone. We can’t afford to
offend people like him.”
Trevin said, with a smile on his face, as he turned to Reynaldo, “So, do you want her to apologize to you in person?”
Reynaldo smiled and said nothing.
Trevin busily said, “Alright, alright, I’ll talk to her.
With that, Trevin tugged at my sleeve again, earnestly urging me to apologize to Reynaldo..
I didn’t want to hear a single word of what Trevin said.
I irritably pulled back my sleeves and didn’t want to pay attention to him.
Reynaldo leaned back on the chair, smiling mischievously.
He exclaimed to me, “Look, didn’t your boyfriend ask you to apologize to me? Why are you still standing there?”
As soon as Reynaldo said that, Trevin gave me a push towards him.
Reynaldo laughed more and more mischievously, with a sneer in his eyes.

He suddenly stood up and walked towards me.
He lowered his gaze and looked at me, in his deep eyes, there was coldness, mockery, and… hatred.
The intense sense of oppression came back again.
I wanted to step back, but my feet felt like they had grown roots and I couldn’t lift them no matter how hard I tried.
He smiled at me and suddenly leaned in close to my ear, laughing meaningfully, “If I asked your boyfriend to bring you to my bed, do you think he would agree?”
“Enough!”
I pushed him with all my strength and yelled at him, “I have said it many times, he is not my boyfriend, why do you always linger like this?”
“Did I… not disperse?”
Reynaldo laughed self–deprecatingly, his laughter was cold, and his handsome face gradually became extremely dark.
“Oh my God, Esmeralda, what were you doing?”
At this moment, a sudden cry of alarm came from the entrance of the cafeteria.
Then, my whole body was forcefully pulled back by someone.
I barely managed to stand firm when I realized that our supervisor from the information room had arrived, along with Bennett.
Bennett stared at me with disdain and said, “No wonder you didn’t come to work this morning, turns out you were here seducing the boss again.”
