Reborn Reawakened Rekindled Novel - Season 2 Episode 85

Bonnie was glaring daggers at me. There was no one around us, so she didnt bother hiding her hatred.

“You’ve already killed my parents. Isn’t that enough? I haven’t even settled the score for that!” Bonnie’s eyes welled up as she mentioned her parents. “How would I have gotten so sick if you hadn’t done that? How would my parents have died in a car accident on their way to the hospital to visit me?”

Bonnie always blamed me for everything.

She claimed all her wrongdoings were for love and that I forced her hand. And my self–defense was seen as malicious in her eyes.

Her values were getting more twisted by the day. Maybe the more she hated me, the more twisted she became

“Your parents‘ deaths are on you, not anyone else. Don’t stand in my way, I have nothing to discuss with you.” I responded calmly, not showing any sign of

emotion.

I wasnt even a tad guilty: Bonnie was just asking for trouble.

If Bonnie hadn’t been so jealous and competitive back then and had obediently followed Neil, he wouldn’t have been so cold to her.

Even taking Karina’s heart condition into account, he would’ve taken care of Bonnie

“Trene, Neil is just not willing to give up on you. You should know that. Bonnie argued, a peculiar smile spread across her young face, a hint of triumphant in her eyes. “He still loves me, and I have proof. But

I don’t want to tell you.”

I was so done with Bonnie’s pestering. I retorted, “Bonnie, people always flaunt what they lack. If Neil truly loved you, you wouldn’t need to keep showing off his love in front of me, right?”

My words hit a nerve, and Bonnie’s face fell instantly. She bit her lip and stayed silent.

If she knew how much Neil pampered her and how crazy he was for her in my past life, she would probably be jealous of herself.

In my past life, smart Bonnie always stayed in Neil’s apartment, ignoring all my provocations and making me chase her around like a lunatic.

Someone walked by, and as Bonnie was the center of attention tonight, she couldn’t let people see her bickering with me. She shot me a dirty look and left.

I entered my room, ready to hit the sack. The luxury cruise wouldn’t dock until tomorrow morning. If we were to return to shore earlier, we would need someone to drive us back.

I dialed Russel’s number, wondering where he had disappeared to

The call was immediately hung up. I had a bad feeling. Russel had never been this unreliable before. Did something happen?

A while later, a message came in from Russel: Something came up. I need to go home. I’m not sure if I can make it back in time. Try to stick with Stella.

-He was probably worried that I would run into Neil or that Bonnie would target me

After some thought, I replied, “Wait for me. I’ll be there soon. It’s so baring here.”

I got out of bed and headed for the exit, ready to meet Russel at the dock.

“Bang!”

Just as I unlocked the door, a powerful force flung it open.

Luckily, I was quick on my feet and dodged the door.

“Neil?” I was taken aback when I recognized him, then immediately went on guard.

Neil didn’t reek of alcohol; he wasn’t drunk. But his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was flushed + could feel his burning body heat.

His jacket was gone, and he was only wearing a black and white woven shirt

“Bang!” Neil closed the door behind him and locked it. He looked at me, his expression pained.

Clearly, he had been drugged.

The question was, who would do such a thing?

Suddenly, there were noises outside.

This should be the place. This is where he disappeared!”

“We’ll wait, he’ll come out eventually”

“But Miss Zora isn’t here, right? Did we get the wrong place?”

I listened to the conversation outside, my heart sinking. So someone was planning to catch Neil in the act and expose his scandal. Someone drugged him, and someone was waiting for the right moment to spill the beans.

I was too focused on eavesdropping to notice Nell behind me. By the tim

felt his body heat on my back, he had already pressed me against the door.

‘Neil, there are people outside waiting to catch you. Hang in there, I’ll call Mitch to help you!” I turned around to face Neil, who looked like he was about to lage control. I tried my best to stay calm.

Neil was sweating profusely, his shirt was even soaked through. He was obviously having a h

7 feel terrible, and I can’t take it anymore.” Neil’s voice was shaky.

The fact that he could lower his voice and talk to me showed his strong willpower.

“How could you be so careless to be drugged? I tried to distract him,

lime.

He took a deep breath before answering, “I went to see Gloria. She gave me a drink. I didn’t expect her to drug me!”

This surprised me. “Neil, don’t tell me you had a thing with her in the past?!”

Gloria was way too old for him!

Neil was already in a bad state, and my comment made his eyes darken. He glared at me, “Do you take me for a fool? She’s Karina and Kate’s biological mother, get it?”

“Karina’s mother? I was first taken aback; then it dawned on me.

So because her daughter once donated her heart to Bonnie, and Bonnie looked a lot like Karina, she saw Bonnie as her own daughter.

It was just that I never thought Gloria would go abroad all these years, becoming a successful man’s wife.

“Uh, don’t talk anymore.” Neil saw that I was about to continue and cut me off.

“I’ll call Mitch” I reached for my phone.

Just then, Neil completely lost his senses. He bent down and kissed me. His hot and passionate breath filled my mouth, carrying a hint of alcohol.

His hands were like fire, every touch on my arm sending a wave of heat through me.

Fear filled my eyes as I tried to push Neil away, but he was now completely consumed by desire, not giving me a chance to resist.

“Neil, let go of me! You’re hurting me! I tried to remain calm when I finally had a chance to breathe, attempting to bring Neil back to his senses.

I couldn’t scream out loud. Otherwise, it’d be a whole new level of trouble if someone outside heard. Compared to that, I’d much rather no one see the scene unfolding right now.
