Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 8

"Oscar's leg injury will definitely leave scars. The extra compensation is his due. You guys keep chatting, I've got stuff to deal with." Saying this, I turned and left.

The honeymoon period for the young couple was running out, probably only half a month left. In half a month, Neil would make his move, and Bonnie would be his target. Oscar would lose his chance to chat and laugh with Bonnie so freely.

Thinking about it, Neil really pissed me off.

After leaving the hospital, I told Bailey to go back to Sterling Estates, the mansion where Neil and I lived.

I bought some supplements and they were there. I planned to take them home and use them daily; with my mom's cooking skills, I could definitely gain some weight.

The supplements were still in the living room, untouched. I had no idea whether Neil came home last night or the result of his conversation with Fiona.

"Why didn't you get off the car yesterday?" As I was about to leave with the supplements, Neil appeared at the top of the stairs. He was looking down at me with an unhappy look. Why was he still home? He usually came back every three months.

Neil was dressed in pure black homewear, simple to the extreme, but his face and figure made it extremely attractive.

"I've never interfered with your rumored lovers before. Don't want to start now," I replied calmly.

"Is that so? All of them lost their opportunities in the film and television industry one by one, negative news all over the place, was that a coincidence?" Neil looked at me expressionlessly.

So, he knew what I did, but he never stopped me, because those women were just his playthings. But Bonnie was different. I just wanted to see her and have a chat, and Neil was like a raging lion, about to tear me to pieces.

I admitted, "You gave them lots of money and resources, which are technically our shared property. I just took a little back in another way. That's normal."

"Why didn't you ask Fiona for it face to face last night? I gave her a set of apartments, half of which are yours." Neil walked down the stairs and stood in front of me. Much taller than me, he was so intimidating.

Had Neil gone mad? I frowned. Why was he talking about these boring things now? In a year at most, he would propose a divorce and plan to give me a large amount of property. Why should I care about a set of apartments?

"I've accepted it, she's not the first and won't be the last. I can't get rid of everyone." I rushed to finish my sentence and left. I should have asked Bailey to get the supplements.

As I walked out the door, I felt Neil's icy gaze disappear. I put the bottles of pills in the back seat and told Bailey to leave.

When I got home, I gave these bottles to the housemaid. My mom was cooking, which was one of her hobbies. My dad's car was back. When he saw me at home, he handed me his phone, "What the hell is this?"

When I saw the news, ["Hot actress" Fiona denied any romance with the president of Whitmore Co. after being seen entering a hotel together.]

If these two really had any improper relationship, it should not be called a romance, but an illicit relationship.

I gave the phone back to my father and comforted him, "Dad, these are all fake, you know Neil is a businessman, and sometimes he has to socialize."

My father angrily said, "You're still defending him!"
