Chapter449
I anxiously squeezed my hands, sat back in the chair, and continued to
wait.
Now I am eager to know about their situation.
Although I no longer have that vague feeling for Winston, the old friendship is still there after all.
There was also Anton, who had helped me so many times, and of course I didn’t want anything to happen to him.
The most important thing is Vonnie, and I don’t know if she will be affected by the failure of this play.
I sighed heavily and stared out of the window in a daze.
There was no one in the yard, and I waited until late at night but didn’t. see Reynaldo’s car come back.
And so, I slept in the chair all night.
The next day, the bodyguard came in to deliver breakfast.
I busily asked him, “Has Reynaldo come back?”
The bodyguard shook his head, set down the breakfast, and left.
I glanced out of the window with boredom.
The feeling of being disconnected from the outside world and feeling anxious inside is really uncomfortable.
I have to say, Reynaldo really knew how to torture people.
He really made me feel uncomfortable because of his impatience, and he did exactly what he said.
For several days in a row, Reynaldo did not appear again.
I don’t know if it was because he was angry and deliberately avoided me, or because he was too busy with work.
That day, the bodyguard who came to deliver food to me suddenly changed, and he looked particularly unfamiliar.
I stared at him for a moment and asked, “Are you new here?”
The bodyguard said respectfully, “Yes, Ms. Duffy, you can tell me anytime if you need anything.”
“Where is the previous bodyguard? Has Reynaldo returned?”
The bodyguard stood with his hands behind his back, respectfully saying, “The bodyguards in the yard have all been reassigned by Mr. Humphrey. Now there’s only me and two other partners left, but rest assured, Ms. Duffy, if you need anything, we can all take care of it for Ms. Duffy.”
“Hasn’t Reynaldo come back yet?” I asked again.
The bodyguard nodded and said, “Mr. Humphrey has been very busy lately, so he hasn’t come over here.”
T
It’s been a week now, and Reynaldo still hasn’t shown up. The outside world must have turned upside down by now.
The more anxious in my heart.
I looked at the bodyguard and said, “Can I borrow your phone?”
The bodyguard shook his head and said mechanically, “Ms. Dully, you are currently in a state of confinement, we cannot give you a phone to

use.”
“I did nothing else but wanted to give Reynaldo a call.”
“This…”
Seeing the bodyguard hesitate, I quickly said, “I have something important to discuss with Reynaldo, really, can you lend me your phone. to use? If he blames you, I will take full responsibility.”
The bodyguard listened and then handed me the phone.
But he also insisted on watching me make the call and requested that I put it on speakerphone.
I skillfully dialed that familiar number.
The phone rang twice before it was answered at the other end.
“What’s the matter?”
The cold voice came quickly.
I licked my lips and hurriedly spoke, “Reynaldo…”
The breathing on that end suddenly became a little heavier.
“Esmeralda?” His tone also became serious, “You really have some skills, actually managing to borrow a phone from the bodyguard. It seems this bodyguard needs some more training.”
The bodyguard’s face changed.
T’hurriedly said, “It’s not anyone else’s business. I forced him to lend me his phone. Don’t blame others.”
