Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 440

Neil looked at me with a complex expression, as if he was taken aback by my words.

“Ms. Finch, how about showing a little decorum? What do you take me for?” Ariana retorted with a flare of anger, “I was just thinking, since I’m already here to pick up Mr. Mitch, I might as well take him home. It saves you guys the trouble. Is there something wrong with that?”

Her thin veneer of an excuse didn’t fool me, “I don’t mind the trouble, okay? In the future, please steer clear of married men. If you’re looking for a man, try a matchmaking

“We have a nanny, don’t we?” Neil seemed to want me to come with him.

“She can’t handle it all by herself. You go get Mitch. And make sure Ariana doesn’t follow!” I was a bit commanding, my mood was quite volatile, as if I had been betrayed

Sometimes I had to admire Neil’s tenacity. Even in this situation, he still remembered his mission to prove his innocence through Mitch.

But I didn’t completely trust Neil. If he went alone, would he really be able to bring Mitch back? Would Ariana seize the opportunity to follow?
