After all, Esmeralda, you don’t have any relationship with Mr. Humphrey anymore, do you?
“Ah!”
Reynaldo sneered and taunted, “I just wanted to remind Mr. Palmer that as a public figure, it’s best to pay attention to his image.”
Don’t get involved in any unnecessary scandals. If your image is tarnished, it will affect the release of this film, and it will not be worth the loss.
Anton smiled faintly and said, “All the preparations for this play have been done, it’s a sure thing that it will be released on time, unless…”
He said, then glanced meaningfully at Reynaldo and said, “Someone deliberately sabotaged the play, preventing it from being shown.”
I looked at Anton in confusion.
How could he suddenly say such words, and even look at Reynaldo with that kind of expression.
It was as if he doubted that Reynaldo would tamper with this play.
But Reynaldo didn’t need to do that.
After all, the biggest investor in this play was him. From a profit perspective, he and Winston should be the ones who most hope that this play can be successfully released.
Winston suddenly came over while I was thinking.

“Ralda?”
Winston shouted at me as soon as he came over.

I felt like I hadn’t seen Winston for a long time. Today, when I saw him, he looked much thinner than before.
I heard from Vonnie before that Winston has been busy with the follow- up work of this play recently.
It can be imagined that Winston really cared about this play, putting all his hopes on it.
I smiled faintly at him and said, “Congratulations on successfully wrapping up the filming. I also wish this movie of yours sells well.”
“Thank you.”
Winston stared at me, his eyes deep.
When facing Winston’s gaze, I didn’t feel the same nervousness and pressure as when facing Reynaldo.
I met his gaze, my mind calm.
At this moment, Anton suddenly asked me, “Esmeralda, where have you been during this time? Why haven’t you come to the set again? Vonnie said she couldn’t even reach you on the phone.”
I glanced at Reynaldo subconsciously.
The man’s face was cold, with a slight curve at the corner of his lips that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
I pursed my lips, knowing I couldn’t tell him in front of him that I had been imprisoned by him, so I said to Winston, “It’s nothing, I’ve been resting at home during this time, and my phone broke, so I couldn’t make

Anton lowered his gaze and smiled, without asking any more questions.
And Winston, from the moment he came over, kept staring at me with those affectionate eyes, without any concealment.

Sometimes I didn’t really understand Winston.
He knew full well that Reynaldo didn’t like me getting involved with him
in any way, but he still always intentionally or unintentionally tangled with me in front of Reynaldo.
I didn’t notice it the first few times, but later on, since he asked me to find Reynaldo to invest, I felt like he was deliberately trying to provoke Reynaldo through me.
I don’t know if I was overthinking.
Just thinking, the arm around the waist suddenly tightened.
Reynaldo hugged me tightly and smirked at Winston and Anton, saying, “There are some things that do not belong to you, you better not covet them, or else… face the consequences.”
He finished speaking, then hugged me and walked away, as if extremely annoyed by the two people staring at me.
I couldn’t help but glance at him, feeling like he had a strong possessiveness towards me.
