Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 262

Faith caught on to the weird vibe between Kitty and me and started eyeing Kitty like a hawk

Any woman who could walk straight into Neil’s house must be something else.

Kitty had dyed her hair brown, which made her look more docile and gentler. Her nose and lip piercings were gone, but the row of earrings on her ears were still there, adding a dash of rebellion to her otherwise soft demeanor

I knew exactly what kind of daughter-in-law Ryan and Faith were looking for. They preferred a girl who was well-read, generous, simple yet elegant, and

They definitely wouldn’t like the row of earrings on Kitty’s ears. And they still didn’t know about Kitty’s background.

“Neil, who is this?” Even though Faith might not like Kitty’s look, she still managed to keep her tone soft.

“A friend” Neil responded curtly, almost coldly

Kitty quickly got her act together. She beamed at us, “Hello! I’m Neil’s friend. Just call me Kitty I heard from Neil that it’s his mom’s birthday today, so I brought a gift”

She walked up to Faith and handed her a birthday present. It was a transparent, delicate box containing a beautiful red crystal ring. Judging from the quality, it definitely wasn’t cheap

As expected, Faiths eyes lit up when she saw the gift. She showered praise on the ring, and Kitty seemed to relax a bit.

But the next second. Faith returned the gift to Kitty, I can’t accept such an expensive present. Kitty, why don’t you stay and have dinner with us?”

Kitty was taken aback, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. It was awkward to have a gift returned, but Faith’s refusal was understandable. She couldn’t possibly accept a gift this expensive from a mere friend of Neil’s.

“Kitty, come sit with us” I tried to ease the awkwardness.

“Okay.” Kitty nodded, placed the gift on the table, and sat down next to me.
