Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 458

No one knew what Louis desired to discuss specifically, and how he intended to do so. In case something went awry, Russel would be there to locate me immediately.

When we arrived at our meeting spot, the clock struck nine.

Louis was already waiting for me. He hadn’t changed much, except for the aura around him which had taken on a darker, more sinister tone. Especially his eyes, which reminded me of a venomous snake.

I couldn’t fathom why he had become this person. Growing up in the Whitmore family, and being treated like a brother by Neil, he should have been much better off than the average person. Yet, he had stabbed Neil in the back.

This was something I truly couldn’t understand. In my past life, Russel had quarreled with Neil over a woman, which was at least a reason, Louis, however, was completely inexplicable.

“Long time no see,” Louis greeted me with a small smile, his tone suggesting an old friend’s reunion. But we could hardly be considered old friends, merely acquaintances.

“Yeah, long time no see. What did you want to discuss today?” I glanced at the cup on the table, already filled with water.

Louis sighed softly, “We’re friends, aren’t we? Can I call you Rena like everyone else does?”

Hearing this intimate nickname coming from Louis, I felt a pang of revulsion. But I kept my composure and let him continue.

Louis proceeded, “Rena, I wanted to see you because of the photo studio incident. I’m not sure why you did what you did.
