Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 429

Chapter 429

My parents were still out, leaving me and Norah to fend for ourselves. With just two adults, keeping tabs on three kids was proving to be quite the challenge.

Thankfully, the babies were usually well-behaved, though they had their moments of fussiness that were difficult to soothe.

After Stella returned to her home in Rosemont, she reached out to me once, video calling to see her kid, Yara. She then made me promise not to let Mitch know that Yara was with me, and absolutely not to let him take her.

“Alright, don’t worry,” I assured her, nodding my head.

With that, Stella ended the call, seemingly relieved.

But I hadn’t expected Mitch to come looking for me so soon.

Just three days after Stella left, he showed up at my doorstep. The moment I saw him, I blocked the entrance, refusing to let him in.

“Where is my kid?” Mitch looked like he hadn’t slept in’ days; his eyes were bloodshot and dark circles painted his under eyes.

“Stella took her,” I replied, keeping my expression as neutral as possible. “So you care about your kid now? Aren’t you responsible for all of this?”

“Enough with the nonsense, I just want my kid!” Mitch snapped, his patience clearly wearing thin. “I know she didn’t take Yara with her. She went to my parents’ house, caused a scene, and my parents haven’t seen Yara!”

He tried to barge in but I held my ground. Fortunately, he didn’t dare to force his way in.

Instead, he grabbed my arm, “Irene, I know you’re close to her, but this is my family matter. Don’t overstep!”
