Chapter 28 I Won’t Lie to You
As he spoke, he began to take off my clothes.
But I pushed him away again, asking. “Then can you give me the money
now?”
“Later…” Reynaldo kissed my earlobe, his voice hoarse. “I won’t lie to you.”
I knew he wouldn’t lie to me, but I really didn’t have much time left.
I pressed against his shoulder again, pushed him away, and whispered, “Now, please. I need the money now because…”
Reynaldo’s face instantly darkened, and the lust in his eyes subsided a lot.
He tugged at his tie and snapped angrily, “Esmeralda, do you know what we’re doing now? We’re having sex!
“Why do you keep pushing me away and saying you want money? All you care about is money?”
“No, Reynaldo. I really need it now. I…”
“Enough!” Reynaldo pushed me away and sneered coldly. “Since all you can see is money, it’s boring to have sex with you now.”
“Reynaldo…” I looked at him with tearful eyes.
But he didn’t look at me, his eyes stained with coldness.
He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then sneered, “Don’t worry. I said I would give you money, and I will.”
With that, he took out his phone and did something. Soon, my phone buzzed.
Reynaldo then took his coat from the back of the chair and left without saying a word.
Looking at his receding figure, I felt so bad in my heart.
I must be a shameless woman in his eyes now.
I looked at my phone and saw that I had just received 1.5 million dollars.
Reynaldo gave me 200 thousand dollars more.
I knew that even if he hated me, he had never been stingy with me.
His generosity made me feel sad and ashamed of myself.
I transferred the money to Dad.
In no time, Dad called me.
“Oh. my sweetheart. You knew you could do it. Well done! I knew if you talked to Reynaldo, he would definitely help us!”
I curled up my lips mockingly.
Dad was wrong. Reynaldo agreed to lend me money only because he was a generous man. He was too good.
I used to hate him very much. But now, I had realized that he was actually a very good man.
Unfortunately, the one he loved wasn’t me.
At this time, Dad sighed with some regret, “Ralda, since you asked him for help, why didn’t you ask for more? You could have asked him if he

could lend you like 5 million dollars. Maybe he would also lend you.”
Hearing Dad’s ridiculous words, I laughed with anger.
I really didn’t talk to him anymore.
So I just said indifferently, “Pay off your debt, and don’t gamble.
anymore.”
“Okay, okay. I won’t gamble anymore. But maybe you can ask Reynaldo for a bit more, and he…”
Furious, I directly hung up the phone.
I really didn’t know how my dad had become like this. Why did he always wanna get money from Reynaldo?
Reynaldo owed him anymore?
No!
Thinking of how angry Reynaldo was just now, I felt bitter in my heart again.
I guessed he must hate me more now.
But that was good in some ways. In that case, he would definitely end our secret love relationship sooner.
By then, I would be free, wouldn’t I?
I comforted myself so, but I still felt sad and wanted to cry.
And I lost sleep tonight.
I couldn’t help but recall Reynaldo’s gaze at me before he left.
There was coldness, disappointment, and a hint of sneer in it.
Feeling sad inside, I sat up and took my phone, wanting to say something to Reynaldo.
I stared at the dialogue box for a long time, but I didn’t know what to say to him.
I pissed him off. Now, no matter what I said, it would seem phony.
Thinking that Reynaldo might be with his beloved right now, I sighed silently and decided not to bother him.
I stared out the window with sadness, unable to sleep until dawn.
Because I hadn’t slept last night, I looked low–spirited and lay in bed motionlessly.
In the morning, Madisyn called me to have breakfast, but I didn’t have much appetite.
Madisyn thought I was still sick, so she hurriedly fetched the medical box.
I smiled at him, saying that I was fine, and I just felt a bit tired after the fever.
