Chapter 11 Don’t Be Afraid of Him
I froze right on the spot.
The voice… The laugh….
It was Reynaldo!
I couldn’t believe how unlucky I was. How come I ran into him everywhere?
I was totally screwed.
Reynaldo, in a suit, stood not far away from us, exuding an air of refined nobility.
A mere look from him was intimidating enough.
He used to be a meek pushover, yet now, he was such a big shot, and no one could afford to mess with him.
I couldn’t help but sigh again, finding it hard to believe he was the man I used to marry.
Lavonne had always been the one who disliked him the most. Whenever his name was brought up, she was always indignant.
Yet, now, perhaps stunned by his imposing presence, she didn’t say a thing.
Winston chuckled. “Reynaldo, weren’t you at the hospital?”
I was surprised.
Reynaldo went to the hospital? Was he hurt?

I couldn’t help but size him up but didn’t see any wound.
Thinking back to how wild he was in bed, I didn’t think he was injured anywhere.
Then there was only one possibility.
Kimberly was hospitalized, and he was with her.
No wonder he was so horny; she was injured and couldn’t satisfy him.
Reynaldo had already walked over while I was lost in thought.
He looked at me, his sullen look sending a chill down my spine.
I dipped my head, not daring to explain.
Lavonne leaned closer to me, whispering in my ear, “Is this really Reynaldo? The meek pushover? His temperament has changed so much. I can’t even look him in the eye. Gee, being rich does change people, huh?”
His temperament wasn’t the only thing that had changed, OK?
Other than his physical appearance, everything else about him had changed!
I smiled awkwardly at her, not saying a word.
Reynaldo stared at me dangerously for quite a while before turning back to Winston and asking him again, “You offered to help her. On what capacity?”
Winston glanced at me gently and then said unhurriedly, “It depends on Ralda.”
Reynaldo sneered.

Clearly, he was upset.
Then he looked at me again and said before I could say anything, “Did you hear that? It depends on you. In what capacity do you expect him to repay the debt for you?”
Though he maintained a smile while asking me this, his eyes and smile were devoid of any emotion.
I grew nervous and said, “Don’t get the wrong idea. I’ve never thought of asking him to help me.”
“Ralda…” Winston looked at me with distress in his eyes. “Don’t be afraid of him. You have me. If you don’t wanna owe him anything, I’ll pay him back no matter the amount.”
Lavonne chimed in indignantly, “Exactly. He took advantage of you in the first place. If it weren’t for him, Winston and you…”
Suddenly, Reynaldo turned to look at her.
Instantly, her voice trailed off and eventually became totally inaudible.
I totally got it–Reynaldo’s gaze was truly terrifying, reminding one of a predator.
Lavonne tugged at my hand under the table discreetly and whispered in my ear, “Is this really Reynaldo? Are you sure he doesn’t have a lost twin?”
I pulled a wry smile.
She had a richer imagination than me.
