Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 226

"I just ran into Bonnie." I started, looking at Neil.

Neil frowned and the grin on Kitty's face behind him faded a lot.

She seemed to be more scared of Bonnie, but didn't seem to give a damn about me, his ex-wife.

"I came to Dreamscape District to discuss cooperation with Evershine Enterprises. They were very friendly to me before I came here, but now they're avoiding me and chatting happily with Bonnie instead. Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you." I said bluntly.

Neil's expression didn't change, but Kitty looked surprised.

I ignored her reaction, waiting for Neil to respond.

"You think every bad thing that happens has something to do with me? Am I really that bad in your eyes?" Neil retorted angrily. There was a chill in his eyes.

"You don't have to get mad. If I'm wrong, I apologize." After seeing Neil's expression, I knew he wasn't lying.

Bonnie was just using his name to provoke me.

I was about to get in my car and leave when Neil stopped me, "Don't rush off. If you're suspicious of me, why don't you confront me about it?"

Kitty's eyes were darting between me and Neil. She looked very concerned.

She suddenly grabbed Neil's arm. "Why are you so angry? You treated her so poorly, it's normal for her to suspect you!"

Neil looked really annoyed. He shoved Kitty's hand off and said impatiently, "Mind your own business!"

Kitty was taken aback and then plastered on an awkward smile. She wasn't easily embarrassed. She had been getting along well with Neil, so she probably thought she was special to him.

But she quickly shrugged it off, "Rena, I wanted to help you deal with him, but he's too pissed. I can't help you."

I smiled at her, "Thanks."

Neil glanced at Kitty, then grabbed my wrist and walked off to the side, "Let's talk."

Kitty watched us walk away, waiting patiently.

Neil wanted to talk about how he thought his image in my mind was too negative, and he hoped I could change my opinion.

I blamed almost every difficulty and misfortune I encountered on him. He couldn't stand it.

But it wasn't my fault. During my past life, he left a deep psychological scar on me. He used so many extreme methods to torment my family, so I would unconsciously think all the bad things were done by him.

And Bonnie kept misleading me on purpose.

"I'm not that low. If I really wanted to take revenge on you, I wouldn't have waited for two years." Neil concluded. His brow furrowed throughout the conversation.

"Alright, I got it. Maybe I've just been under too much pressure recently and misunderstood you. I'm sorry." I apologized calmly. I didn't have the energy to argue with him anymore.

Neil's face seemed to relax a little. He looked towards Kitty, but she was gone.

His eyes had a strange look. I tried to speak in a soothing tone, "You should go find her."

"No need. She's too annoying." Neil's voice was a little low.
