Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 179

Chapter 179

I tried to get back my phone, but judging by my mom’s face, I didn’t want to piss her off and give her heart trouble.

I finally said, “Mom, just turn off my phone then.”

As soon as she heard that, she switched off my phone.

At night, I looked at the clock on the wall, feeling a bit uneasy. Neil was probably waiting for me to watch a movie, but I didn’t show up

He must think I stood him up on purpose. But I couldn’t contact him now to explain. My mom was always by my side, praising Russel from time to time.

“Mom, who told you that Neil was there today?” I couldn’t figure this out.

It couldn’t have been Stella and Mitch, and Bonnie didn’t have my mom’s contact info. The only person I could think of was Russel.

But I didn’t want to suspect him. He wouldn’t do something like that.

Was it Neil who told my parents?!

My mom gave me a side–eye, “You don’t need to know who told me. The bottom line, you can’t have any contact with Neil. You’ve been hurt by him once. Do you want to make the same mistake again?”

“Mom, I didn’t.” I tried to explain, “I had a reason to go to that party today!”

I told my mom about Halley, and she looked at me puzzled. After a while, she repeated her words, “Bottom line, you can’t have any contact with Neil. You’re not a little girl anymore, and you need to think about your future!*

I knew my parents were scared. My failed five–year marriage with Neil not only hurt them but also brought them some criticism.

So now they were very cautious about Neil and didn’t allow me to have any connection with him.

I kept checking the time, and when the clock struck twelve, my heart sank.
