Chapter 1247
While he hasn’t been sentenced yet, we need to act quickly. Once he is sentenced and sent to prison, it may not be so easy to get him out.
My mind was elsewhere as I walked, thinking about things.
“Esmeralda……”
At that moment, Anton’s voice suddenly came from behind.
I was stunned for a moment, then turned around.
Anton was running towards me.
He seemed to have chased after her directly after dealing with Kimberly’s injuries, his clothes still unchanged, and even the bloodied gloves on his hands had not been removed yet.
There was a trash can next to it.
He took off his gloves, threw them into the trash can, and then strode towards me.
He was also wearing a mask, only revealing a pair of eyes.
Those eyes always carried a touch of melancholy and deep affection, very charming, yet also made people hesitant to approach easily because of some hidden traces of indifference and aloofness.
I looked at him and asked, “Is there something wrong?”
Anton stared at me for a while, then took off his mask and spoke to me
with a deep voice tinged with sadness, “I heard about Vonnie’s
incident, but unfortunately, I wasn’t there that night…”

“Even if you are, so what?”
I sarcastically said, “The one who harmed Vonnie is your own sister. If you were there, could you have prevented this tragedy from
happening?”
Anton opened his mouth, about to say something.
I shook my head and said, “No, you can’t. After all, she is your own sister. You wouldn’t really go against her, otherwise… four years ago you wouldn’t have protected her.”
“Esmeralda……”
“There’s nothing more to say,” I said lightly, “You are different from Quentin after all. Quentin is my real brother, but you are not. So, you have your own choices, your own principles, and I have nothing to say.”
“I was just frantically trying to save her, just worried that she was dead, and Johnathan would be in trouble.”
“Was it?”
As if seeing a glimmer of hope in an instant, I asked him urgently, “Do you have any way to save Johnathan, or maybe you can persuade Kimberly to drop the charges.”
Anton pursed his lips, remained silent for a while, and then said reluctantly, “I’m afraid it’s not possible. As you said, behind Kimberly stands Matthew. Even if I could persuade Kimberly to withdraw the lawsuit, Matthew wouldn’t agree.”
I slowly lowered my gaze, and the little hope in my heart shattered in an instant.
Sure.

The person leading this matter was Matthew, and Matthew would not allow Kimberly to withdraw the lawsuit.
“Esmeralda……”
“Esmeralda……”
Just as Anton reached out to put his hand on my shoulder, Reynaldo’s voice suddenly came from behind.
His hand paused in midair for a moment, and the next second, it dropped down.
I looked up and saw a bitter smile leap across his lips.
I said lightly, “Reynaldo has come, you, go back.”
As for Kimberly, I had to come and protect her this time only for Johnathan.
“But one day, I will make her pay for my mother and Mikaela’s lives!”
Anton lowered his gaze and remained silent.
I didn’t say much to him either, just gave him a casual glance and then turned around to leave.
Reynaldo came over, “he put his arm around my shoulder and looked at Anton.”
Anton didn’t say anything, just glanced at him and then turned to walk into the hospital.
Not until Anton left did Reynaldo lower his gaze to look at me.
He straightened my down jacket and whispered, “You came to the hospital without telling me. I finished my work and looked for you at
