Chapter 116

After munching on snacks for over half an hour, I was finally stuffed.

Hey, if you’re not too busy, could you give me a lift to the hotel?I was so full that I didn’t feel like walking or hailing a cab

Since Neil was still hanging around, I decided to swallow my pride and ask.

Neil didn’t respond, he just turned and headed towards his car.

I quickly followed suit

At the hotel, I thanked Neil and then hurried back to my room.

Linda and I had separate rooms. I wasn’t sure if she was sleeping, so I sent her a message to let her know I was back.

Linda replied. Alright

Then I took a shower and started looking up pregnancy tips on my bed. I had decided to keep the baby and raise him on my own.

This was my first child, and I didn’t want to give him up. Even though I could provide him a good life, he would still lack a father’s love.

The next morning. I was awakened by the alarm clock. After quickly getting dressed and putting on light makeup, I met up with Linda. She was driving and I was sitting in the passenger seat, heading towards G City.

The drive took about eight or nine hours. By the time we arrived, it was around four in the afternoon.

My partners had already made contact. They had booked a hotel and planned to host a welcome dinner for me and Linda to discuss our future collaboration.
