Chapter 26 You Are Too Confident

Maybe I pulled too hard, and the back of my hand, where the needle was inserted, started to bleed.

Reynaldo looked down at my hand. His handsome eyebrows furrowed.

I was afraid he would get angry, so I quickly let go.

Kimberly suddenly hugged Reynaldo’s arm, almost leaning her whole body against him, and smiled sweetly at me.

“Ms. Duffy, do you want to talk to Reynaldo?

“It’s okay. Reynaldo is nice. You don’t have to be afraid of him.”

Seeing Kimberly was so close to Reynaldo, I was hesitant to ask him if he would come back tonight.

I was afraid it might make Kimberly unhappy. Then I wouldn’t be able to borrow money, and Reynaldo might even punish me.

Just as I was hesitant, Reynaldo suddenly asked me indifferently, “What’s the matter?”

This was the best chance to borrow money.

I wasn’t sure if he would come back tonight, and once I left the hospital, I might not see him again today.

Seeing that I was silent for a long time, Reynaldo turned to leave.

I hurriedly said, “Well, can you lend me some money?”

Reynaldo stopped in his tracks.

He turned to look at me. His deep eyes were filled with mockery.

“So, it’s about money,” he said with a light smile. His smile was a bit cold, even a bit sarcastic.

I didn’t understand this expression.

I said, “I will definitely pay you back.”

He sneered and asked, “What will you pay back with?”

Seeing the coldness in his eyes, I suddenly remembered last night’s dream.

What he wanted most was to humiliate me, to make me suffer.

I bit my lip and said, “I can pay you back with anything you want.”

“Humph,” Reynaldo sneered. “You’re too confident.”

Yes, Reynaldo never liked me.

I was too confident to believe that he would help me.

A sharp pain stabbed my heart, and tears came to my eyes.

I quickly lowered my head, hiding the tears.

Reynaldo coldly glanced at me, then tried to leave.

Kimberly quickly stopped him. “Reynaldo, why don’t you lend her some money? After all, she is your ex–wife. She is so pitiful.”

“She’s pitiful?” Reynaldo sneered. “There are so many pitiful people in this world. Do I have to give money to each one?”

The two of them got into the elevator. I watched the elevator doors close, and my vision was blurring.

A little girl passed by and called out, “Oh my, your hand is bleeding? You should ask the nurse to help you.”

I looked at the little girl, tears streaming down my face.

The little girl hurriedly comforted me, “Don’t cry, miss, be strong. I’m also in the hospital alone. My parents dropped me off and left because they’re busy.”

I wiped my tears and smiled at her. “I’m not crying. I just need to use the restroom, but no one can help me here. I’m a bit anxious.”

“Let me help you,” the little girl said, and took the IV bag from my hand, holding it high.

Looking at the little girl, I immediately forgot my sadness.

Yes, there was no need to be sad.

Reynaldo didn’t like me, but it was not a big deal.

Even if he didn’t like me, the world was still wonderful. There were still many kind–hearted people to help me.

I finished the IV in the evening.

The effect of the IV was much better than the medicine.

I no longer felt dizzy, and I felt much better.

But I was still very anxious.

While I was getting the IV, my dad called me, asking if I had borrowed

the money.

I said I would reply later.

But he seemed very anxious, calling me four times later.
