Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 134

Chapter 134

I was the one who suggested meeting with Russel, so it was only right that I drove him home.

Russel was staying in an apartment arranged by the hospital. It wasn’t too far from where I was renting, but it would still take about half an hour to walk. He was the silent type. And I was feeling down, not in the mood for chit–chat. We hardly spoke during the entire ride.

When we arrived at his apartment building, Russel didn’t go straight up. Instead, he asked me, “Irene, what if things between Neil and Bonnie aren’t as you imagine? Would you change your mind?”

That was almost exactly the question Neil had asked. My answer remained the same ‘No, I wouldn’t. My heart is already full of pain. Changing my mind would only bring more pain.”

Russel gave a small smile “True, but if a lot of things turn out to be misunderstandings, and you end up wanting to change your mind, I’ll support you”

“You’d support me?” I was surprised.

He’d said he liked me. Why would he support me changing my mind?

Russel smiled again “Yes, but before that, I would still pursue you until you were sure of your own feelings.” With that, he unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

Russel waved at me from outside the car window. I drove away with a mixture of emotions. Once back home, I found myself in a daze. Was Russel really
