Reborn Reawakened Rekindled Novel - Season 2 Episode 25

Alicia and Barbara couldn’t bear it anymore.

Alicia. [Rena, you made the right decision to divorce. Neil was way out of line. You didn’t even know about Karina. You just agreed to marry him, why the hell did he do that to you?]

Barbara (Yeah, as a person, he can’t be so selfish. You’re also the victim here.]

Stella [And what about that Kate? Was she crazy? The nonsense she’s spewing, if I were there, I’d give her a piece of my mind!]

Seeing all these messages pouring out, I felt a lump in my throat. Neil never mentioned Karina to me. He just hoped I’d turn down his grandfather’s proposal

Later, his grandfather’s health worsened. There was no more delaying Since I didn’t refuse, the wedding was set in stone.

If I were to blame for anything, it was that I agreed to marry Neil knowing full well he didn’t fancy me..

That night, the group chat was buzzing. Stella and the others were fuming on my behalf, threatening to get back at Neil. I stopped them.

The more you seek revenge, the more you get tangled up with them Better to let it slide.

What I’m most worried about now was how long Neil planned to stick around in Caladonia?

I hoped he could finish his work and come back home soon. Otherwise, my baby bump will start to show and it would be easy for anyone to spot.

“Let’s meet after work and have a chat.” The next day at work, I received a message from Kate.

“I don’t have time” I replied and then ignored her.

To my surprise, Kate blocked my car at the company’s entrance after work.

I had no choice but to stop, get out of my car.

“I don’t mean anything by this. I just hope you won’t target Bonnie anymore. She’s a host in the marketing department and you’re in expansion. You guys barely cross paths, there’s no need for all this rivalry Kate seemed very self–righteous.

I asked, “On what authority are you defending her?”

Kate replied, “I treat her like my own sister. That’s why.”

I found it amusing, “So, you think Neil’s true love is still your sister, and you’re okay with Bonnie, the stand–in, being by Neil’s side, right?”

Should I praise Kate and her sister for their deep bond, or was Bonnie just that irresistible?

Just as Kate was about to answer me, Bonnie also came out of the company. Her eyes were red, her little face devoid of any color, she looked pitiful.

She saw me, hatred flashed in her eyes, then she looked aggrieved again, “Irene, I’ve resigned. I won’t be an eyesore here anymore.”

“Bonnie, why are you resigning? You can’t! It’s not your fault!” Kate disagreed.

“Now everyone thinks that I’m the one who ruined Irene’s marriage. How can I keep working here with any dignity left? Kate, thanks for looking after me all this time. I’ll treat you to a meal if I get the chance” Bonnie wiped the corner of her eyes, her forced smile looked rather tragic.

Kate looked at me, hinting for me to speak

I chuckled, “You can’t stand the rumors and gossip anymore, so you decided to resign, right?”

“Irene, … Tears welled up in Bonnie’s eyes.

“Enough, Bonnie. You know what you’ve done. I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I wish you and Neil a lifetime of love and may you never part!” I’m starving now, all I want is to go home and eat.

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw Bonnie’s face change. She was looking behind me.

I turned around to see Neil standing behind me with a serious look. He must have heard what I just said.

“What did she do? Tell me.” Neil looked at me calmly, but I knew he was pissed.

Bonnie looked a bit nervous, staring at me.

When I was kidnapped, she ignored my cry for help and tried to distract Neil and the others.

decided

When Neil and I décided to divorce, she secretly encouraged me to find new happiness and divorce Neil as soon as possible.

She also asked Oscar to visit me in the hospital, timing it so that he would bump into Neil. She deliberately used the perfume I gave to Ada to mark her territory in Neil’s car. She sent me repentance messages and her location, saying she didn’t want to live….

All these little tricks, I saw them all, and recorded them on my phone.

I’ll showcase them when the time is right.

“Mr. Whitmore, Irene, she has some misunderstandings about me. She didn’t mean to accuse me of interfering in other people’s marriages last time. I caused her trouble, so I resigned today” Bonnie, seeing that I wasn’t talking, said nervously.

Suddenly, Bonnie walked up to me, grabbed my hand, and slapped her face, “Irene, it’s my fault. Hit me! I deserve it!”

I was caught off guard. Kate quickly stepped in and grabbed my hand, afraid I would actually hit Bonnie.

I instinctively tried to pull back my hand, but Bonnie fell over and landed on the ground.

“Bonnie!” Neil immediately stepped forward to help Bonnie up

Kate also got angry and pushed me. I fell to the ground. A slight pain shot through my lower abdomen!

I immediately covered my belly, my face turned pale.

“Trene didn’t mean to, don’t blame her, I wasn’t stable. Bonnie stood up with Neil’s help and was still sanctimoniously speaking for me.

I felt a warm liquid flowing out from my lower body, so I gritted my teeth and said, “Neil, I think I’m on my period. You know I’m not in good health. Could you take me to the hospital…”

“Ah!” At this moment, Bonnie also let out a painful cry. She bent down to roll up her trousers. Her ankle was swollen. She must have twisted it.

A cold feeling settled in my heart. Bonnie clearly didn’t want Neil to take me to the hospital.

Normally, I could let it go, but now I’m pregnant, I almost blurted out to let Neil choose!

But then I got scared What if I even brought up the pregnancy and Neil was still indifferent? Wouldn’t that make me seem even more pathetic and laughable?

Even my child would become a laughing stock, a poor kid who’s not loved by his father.

I got up, touched the bloodstain on my skirt, felt a tug at my heart, then propped myself up and walked towards my car, planning to go to the hospital by myself

“Neil!” I heard Bonnie’s exasperated shout.

Before I could even turn my head, I was effortlessly scooped up.

“I’m taking you to the hospital, Neil said, cradling me tightly. His jawline was sharp and attractive, moving slightly as he spoke.

Bonnie’s voice faded into the background, probably unable to believe that Neil was prioritizing me.

He placed me in the passenger seat, silently fastening my seatbelt before driving off to the nearest hospital.

Through the car window, I watched Bonnie’s figure gradually become a blur, shrinking into a tiny dot.

“I might mess up your car,” I apologized.

“My car can deal. You, on the other hand, need to learn how to take care of yourself. You’re a grown– ass adult, Neil said, brows furrowed as he glanced at

me

I didn’t have the energy to respond, my mind consumed with worry about the baby.
