Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 349

My mom’s face changed for a second, but she quickly became serious again. “I’m just worried you’ll get in trouble again. So, no matter what, don’t get emotionally tangled up with Neil again, okay?”

“Mom, you think I went to see Neil today, don’t you?” I countered.

My mom stayed silent.

I rubbed my forehead. “I’ve already told you that Neil is helping me investigate Ethan Foster. Do you think we don’t need to meet? Or communicate?”

“You can communicate over the phone,” my mom said in an unreasonable tone.

My mom used to be very understanding, but then she was being stubborn about Neil.

It seemed like she would have had cut ties with me right away if she found out I was with Neil.

“Mom, I’m tired. I’m going to rest.” I didn’t want to explain anymore, so I just headed upstairs. Luckily, my mom didn’t make things difficult for me; otherwise, I would have really lost it.

What was breaking me wasn’t just the pressure from my mom, but also the turmoil inside me. I was scared of my mom’s probing because I knew I couldn’t make a decision.

If I really had no feelings for Neil, I should be calm and composed.

That night, I couldn’t sleep peacefully. I got up early and went to work without having breakfast because I didn’t want to sit face-to-face with my mom. I was scared she’d ask me again.

I had breakfast alone outside. Stella called me quite early, sounding very excited. “Rena, I managed to book another consultation with Dr. Snow. Are you coming with me today? You can ask her to prescribe you something to help you put on some weight.”
