Chapter 1243
“It’s nothing, just a small matter, I will take care of it,” Reynaldo said softly, smiling, as he pulled me to sit on the other side of the dining table. “I just cooked, waiting for you to come down and eat together, are you hungry?”
He said and went to the kitchen.
I frowned and stared at his back.
With Matthew pulling the strings behind the scenes, how could this be a small matter.
He was afraid that I would worry, so he deliberately appeared relaxed in front of me.
Reynaldo brought the dishes to the table one by one, smiling at me and saying, “These are all your favorite dishes, and they are still hot. Hurry up and eat while they’re hot.”
I lowered my gaze, suppressed the discomfort in my heart, and did not expose his disguise.
He wanted me to be happy, without worries or troubles.
Then I agreed to his proposal.
At least this way, he didn’t have to be distracted to take care of my emotions anymore.
After finishing his meal, Reynaldo went to the study.
I didn’t go to disturb him, but went to the backyard greenhouse to

accompany two children.
Just now Gracie came, and Madisyn deliberately brought two children to the backyard greenhouse to play with the birds.
In winter, most of the flowers in the flower house had withered, leaving only a few wintersweets.
There were two birds in the cage, Essie and Roddy were feeding them with food.
These two birds are the same as last time, when Reynaldo took them out to play, they were picked out at the bird and flower market.
After buying them, the two children adored them so much that they wanted to come and feed them every day.
“Mommy…”
Essie saw me and “plunged into my arms, her two small hands wrapped around my waist.”
“Mommy, where’s daddy? Roddy and I want to go out to play. Can you ask daddy to take us out to play?”
Thinking about Johnathan, my heart felt like a big stone was pressing on it.
I touched the two small buns on her head and said gently, “Daddy is very busy today and can’t take us out to play. How about we play at home today?”
Essie was still sensible.
She nodded and said, “Let’s wait for daddy to finish his work before taking us out to play.”

Essie said, moving closer to Roddy to feed the birds.
I sat in the flower room for a while, but I couldn’t sit still.
Gracie just said that the media has claimed, “whoever dies from being stabbed by Johnathan, Johnathan must pay with his life.”
This was clearly Matthew pulling the strings behind the scenes.
He just wanted to use this matter to “hit the nail on the head” with Reynaldo.
So, did Matthew send someone to secretly kill Kimberly and then frame Johnathan?
Thinking of this, I furrowed my brows fiercely.
Matthew was a person who “held grudges and sought revenge, cunning and ruthless.”
He is now in Roxafito, “he has everything, he lacks nothing.”
So, he might not necessarily use this to negotiate terms with Reynaldo.
If he only wanted to retaliate against Reynaldo, to avenge Yoripero’s grudge from that year, then he was very likely to use this matter to kill Johnathan, so that Reynaldo would feel guilty and remorseful.
The more I thought, the more anxious I became.
I quickly contacted Braylon and asked him to send his bodyguards to the hospital to protect Quentin and Kimberly.
It’s ironic when you think about it.
I had a deep–seated hatred towards Kimberly, wishing to … her into a thousand pieces.
