Chapter 455

Chapter 455

Neil’s eyes darkened, as he gazed at me for a few seconds before his voice turned icy cold, “Shoot.”

I had been itching to ask about Russel and Karina.

I’d been suspecting they harbored some secret, but without any concrete evidence at hand, I didn’t want to be kept in the dark. I was determined to figure out whether or not they had any connections.

“Karina initially chased after Russel, you knew that, right?” That was my first question.

Just this first query was enough to taint Neil’s face with a grimace.

Back then, he and Russel were pretty tight. And here he was, with a woman who had once pursued his good buddy. It was a bit awkward, to say the least. It felt more like Karina, unable to capture Russel’s heart, intentionally got together with Neil to provoke Russel.

I wasn’t sure whether Neil had thought about it from this angle initially. But he did end up with Karina.

“Mmm.” Neil grunted in agreement, surprisingly not resisting my question. “Go on.”

“What’s their relationship like?” I asked without missing a beat.

“You mean in the past or now?” Neil countered.

“Now.” I blurted out.

Neil’s eyes grew elusive as he sat up straight, brushed off his jean-clad thighs, and stood up. Hands tucked in his pockets, he looked down at me from his towering height, “What are you suspecting, that Russel and Karina have some kind of illicit relationship?”

Not at all. If Russel could let me go, that would actually be a relief. The situation currently was that he refused to give up on me, and I found his relationship with Karina quite peculiar.

Even though I had never seen them alone together, I always felt they were communicating behind my back.
