Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 493

I wasn’t sure what Faith had said to Neil, but I could guess.

Knowing Faith, she would definitely demand that Neil kick Karina out of the Whitmore house. After all, the Whitmore family had no room for a woman as scheming as her.

“Are you going to throw me out?” Karina guessed, forcing a smile. “Neil, do you feel the same way? Are you going to abandon me like you did all those years ago?”

Neil hadn’t been firm enough back then, but Karina hadn’t exactly been a saint either. Her actions left much to be desired.

In my previous life, Neil had adored Bonnie, likely because she reminded him of Karina. Given this, it was easy to imagine the place Karina held in his heart, especially now with their son, Hiram, in the picture.

Just as Neil was about to respond, Hiram burst out of his room, tears streaming down his face. He clung to Karina’s leg and pleaded, “I don’t want to be separated from mommy!

Grandma, don’t make her leave! If she goes, I’ll go with her!”

“Hiram, if I have to leave, you have to listen to your grandparents and your father, okay?” Karina didn’t plead alongside Hiram. Instead, she crouched down, looking at Hiram with a pained expression.

She shot me a glance, then continued speaking to Hiram, “And you have to listen to your new mommy.”

Was she trying to drag me into this?

I frowned, “Hiram, you won’t have a new mommy. Don’t worry.”

My words seemed to ease Karina, but Neil and Faith looked anything but pleased.
