Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 318

I didn’t necessanly have to personally pick up Hannah’s parents, but I wanted to see where Oscar grew up.

At night, I slept in his room. It was clean and simple, with a few photos of Oscar from his student days. I stared at these pictures for a long time as my eyes got all misty

That night, I dreamed of Oscar He was working part time in a bar, and Lasked him ‘Oscar, how have you been?”

Oscar gave me a bright and cheerful smile, his voice still clear “Ms. Finch, I’m doing alright. There’s no need to worry about me

When I woke up. I found my pillow wet with tears, and outside the door, I heard the voice of Oscar’s mother, Mia Morse. ‘Ms. Finch, time for breakfast”

“Ainight” I replied and got up

I had planned to leave after breakfast, but before I could, someone came to see Oscars father, Henry Morse, to discuss some land sale matters I didn’t understand the details, so I had to wait.

I ended up waiting all day, so my plan to return to Rosemont was delayed by another day.

That night, something unexpected happened.

I couldn’t sleep due to the things on my mind, and Neil called. I didn’t reject the call and hastily picked up.

“Irene, where are you? How can you go so far all by yourself? The voice on the other end was Faith Whitmore’s She sounded worried but also a little bit happy. “I’m glad you’re still willing to pick up Neil’s calls.”

“Maam, I’m fine. I’m here to fetch Oscar’s parents.” I was a bit sleepy, but this call woke me up, and soon my eyes were wide open as I listened to Faith’s voice.
