Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 344

That was the start of the cold war between Neil and me. From that day forward, we didn’t have any contact for two bloody months.

During the peak of summer, the air was filled with heatwaves, but that was nothing compared to Neil’s passion for Bonnie. I constantly saw pictures of them getting all cuddly on the internet. Like that time when Neil bought an island for Bonnie and named it after her. Or when Bonnie would often deliver homemade lunches to Neil at the Whitmore Co. Building. Their interactions were increasingly couple-like, all mushy and lovey-dovey.

My feelings, on the other hand, went from jealous rage to a sort of numbness.

My friends, especially Stella, were utterly bamboozled.

“Are you two filming a drama series or something?” Stella asked, puzzled. “When we were against you, you insisted on chasing Neil. When we stopped opposing, you had a fall out and divorced from him. It looked like you wanted to get back together; we opposed it again, and now… you’ve broken up with him again?”

Alicia and Barbara were also wearing bewildered expressions.

I didn’t know what to say, so I just chuckled awkwardly.

“Are you done with Neil this time?” Stella asked bluntly.

“I don’t know.” My answer made them all drop their jaws. They couldn’t believe I might still have a thing with Neil.

But that was what I truly felt, and I didn’t want to hide it from them. It’d only complicate things and make me seem dishonest.

Just as Stella was about to dig deeper, her phone rang.

“Are you free? Okay, I’ll be right there!” After hanging up, Stella was all excited. She grabbed her bag and was ready to leave, “Guys, the amazing obstetrician and gynecologist I told you about before is back in town. She can see me today. I have to go!”

Hearing that, I stood up subconsciously and said, “I’ll go with you.”
