Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 274

I started having breakfast at the dining table, as if I hadn't heard a word the servant said.

I didn't ask him why he gave Bonnie more money in the first place. Every time I asked, the answer I got was always denial.

Now, I just treated Neil as a tool. Once the transaction was completed, there would be no debt between us.

Then Neil's phone rang. He must have put it on silent mode last night, and it was just now responding. It must have been Bonnie calling.

I guess she must have been furious when she saw Neil pick me up. So she waited outside Sterling Estates all night.

Last time at Faith Whitmore's birthday, she saw me, but she didn't know that I was going to stay here.

"Aren't you going to check it out?" I asked casually while eating. I was very tired because of last night, and now I was also starving.

"When she's tired of waiting, she'll leave." Neil responded. I didn't know if he was trying to express his attitude to me or just saying it casually, "I have nothing to say to her."

I looked down at the remaining food in my bowl, then pushed it away and started drinking a glass of milk. As for Neil's response, I chose to ignore it.

After breakfast, Neil picked up his coat to accompany me out, but I refused, "You go to the office first; I want to rest a little longer. I’ll wait for Bailey to take me to see my dad."

"I'll take you." Neil was about to put down his coat again.

"No need, Neil. If we really plan to get back together, it will be very tiring to go on like this in the long term; let's just take it easy." I said with a frown.

Neil paused, and his eyes flickered slightly, as if he were thinking about what I said.

A few seconds later, he nodded, "Okay."

While watching Neil leave, my nervous heart finally relaxed. From last night until now, I had been feeling a little uneasy.

After sitting for a while, I went to find the car keys, took a car from the garage, and rushed to the prison where my father was now serving his sentence.

As soon as I got out of Sterling Estates, I was blocked by Bonnie's car. She hurriedly got out of the car, walked over, and began knocking on my window.

When I rolled down the window, I heard her yell, "Neil."

I guess she didn't even notice that I was the one driving.

"Why are you here?" After seeing me, Bonnie was stunned. Then a twisted jealousy appeared on her face, "Why are you here? Where is Neil?"

"He's gone to the office." My smile was subtle, giving off a casual vibe, making Bonnie even more frustrated.

Bonnie's voice was shaking a little, "That's impossible! You're not living here now, are you?"

I nodded, answering very casually, "Yes, Neil insists on me living here. After all, this is our matrimonial home; we've lived here for five years."

"That's impossible!" Bonnie denied excitedly, "Irene, you're deliberately trying to piss me off, aren't you?"

"What good does it do me if you're upset? Didn't you tell me that Neil loves you in his heart at the coffee shop last night? I really don't understand why he brought me here to stay." I sighed lightly, "Maybe he's just a playboy."

Bonnie's hand was tightly gripping the window sill, and her unwillingness to believe me was clear in her eyes.

"Where is Neil?" She asked again, seemingly determined to get an answer from Neil.

"I don't know. Maybe he knew you were waiting for him here, so he left from the other side." I closed the window after saying that, and Bonnie had to withdraw her hand.
