He spoke calmly, but I was trembling all over.
I didn’t think deeply before.
Now I deeply understand that fear and chill.
He could never become the old Reynaldo again.
He, at present, if he wants to make me wish I were dead, it is truly easier than squashing an ant.
He kissed my earlobe, his chilling voice sounding like a terrifying ghost: “I’ll be waiting for you in the office tomorrow morning at nine o’clock.”
After saying that, he let go of me, smiled at me faintly, lit a cigarette, and left in a relaxed manner.
I was left alone, trembling in the same spot.
I looked at his back and increasingly felt that this man was very unfamiliar.
In the end, I never truly understood this man, did I?
He detested certain things, liked certain things, including his unpredictable temperament, which I never fully understood.
I could live to this day without any harm, it truly was his great mercy.
I squatted on the ground with my arms crossed for a long time before I walked unsteadily towards the library.

Chapter 198
My colleagues in the office were still discussing my visit to Headquarters, and the sound of wailing and howling echoed one after another.
As soon as I entered, they all turned their gaze towards me.
“Hey, isn’t this Esmeralda, who is about to fly up to the branches and become a phoenix? Don’t forget about us when you become successful in the future.”
“Yeah, yeah, if we were lucky enough to catch a rich man and become a wealthy lady, remember to introduce us sisters to some wealthy people too.”
“And also, and also…”
At that moment, the female colleague who had just slandered me in front of Reynaldo came running and grabbed my arm. “Esmeralda, where did you learn all those seductive tricks? Teach us, will you?”
“Get lost!”
I impatiently shook off her hand.
The female colleague was taken aback, seemingly not expecting that I had a temper.
After a while, she disdainfully hummed, “What’s so great about it? You just went to become a social butterfly, and now you’re acting all high and mighty?”
“Yeah, the big boss asked her to go to the headquarters. He saw her seductive skills and wanted her to use her charm to seduce clients. She actually thought the big boss was interested in her.”
“Yeah, yeah, isn’t it just using that filthy body to gain power? What’s so impressive about that?”

Cheer
Almost all my colleagues mocked me disdainfully, but amidst their mockery, there was still a strong sense of jealousy
So, human nature is like this. Clearly unable to obtain it oneself, yet still pretending to be noble and criticizing others.
I looked at them indifferently, “Yeah, I may not seem impressive, but the fact is, this opportunity that I don’t want is something you guys can’t get no matter how hard you fight for it.”
“Huh, don’t want it? Don’t pretend here, how disgusting”
“Yeah, he even managed to get involved with the big boss, yet he’s still pretending to be all high and mighty”
Two female colleagues sneered and laughed at me with jealousy.
I was physically and mentally exhausted, and I didn’t feel like arguing with them anymore,
They were all passers–by, and it was truly unnecessary.
I didn’t pay any attention to them anymore, I just sat at my own desk with a dazed expression.
Those people kept mocking me relentlessly, their energy was truly impressive.
Bennett said at this time, “Alright, enough already, stop talking. Didn’t you see how she looked like she was about to faint? If we really make her pass out from anger, be careful that the boss doesn’t come after us.”
“Tch, if you don’t want to say it, then don’t. What’s so great about it anyway.”
Those colleagues finally quieted down and returned to their respective

workstations.
I leaned wearily against the chair, thinking about Reynaldo’s cold and bloodthirsty appearance just now, and shivers ran down my spine.
So, could I still escape, could I still hide?

Will there be a day when he really breaks my legs and I can never escape again?
I wearily covered my face, feeling only a sense of exhaustion in my heart.
He has always been a person who sticks to his words.
He clearly said that he would not contact me again, so why did he change
his mind this time?
Reynaldo, what did you want to do in the end?
The world was so big, there were so many people, why were you the only one who refused to let me go?
Can’t the torment of this period of time offset the resentment you had towards me for three years?
Bennett glanced at me, paused for a moment, walked over, and handed me a glass of soy milk.
