Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 515

Just as I was chatting, my mom gave me a call.

Things with Lucas were almost entirely ironed out by now. She and Dad were now managing his family business, meaning they would be staying there for a longer time. She suggested me to move there with Serena and Brandon.

“You’d better not go back to Eldoria. It wouldn’t be convenient if Russel returns there too.” my mother’s tone was a tad solemn. “Your father and I don’t have any other expectations. We just hope you can live a good life with the kids. As for marriage…”

My mom didn’t go on, but I knew what she was hinting at. They wanted me not to be entangled in any more troubles with neither Neil nor Russel.

“I’ll head over after some time.” I replied.

I couldn’t just head over now. The secret of Karina and Dylan was like a black hole, pulling me to unveil it. Moreover, I had this strong hunch that even if I avoided Karina by moving to my parents’ place, our paths would cross again in the future.

Instead of being haunted by her once again in the future, I’d rather stay here and solve the mystery once and for all.

“Why waiting? You’ve been in Rosemont for a while, and both Neil and Russel are there too. How can your father and I be at ease?” My mom disagreed. She wanted me to move over immediately.

“I have some matters to settle. Don’t worry, Mom. But there’s something I really need your help with.” I responded.

“What is it?” Mom asked.

“I want to send Serena and Brandon to your place. Can you please look after them for a while? I’ll return once I’m done with the matters here.” I expressed my worries about their safety in Rosemont.

Not only I worried about Neil’s suspicion, but I was also afraid of Karina’s intention. She was a ruthless being. She would be a great danger for my children’s safety if she believed that Serena and Brandon might threat her place in the Whitmore family.
