Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 191

“Russel, let’s just stay friends,” I said firmly. “My feelings for you are not love. You should stop wasting

your time on me and listen to your family’s advice to find a woman who is right for you”

Russel was strongly emotional, “I can’t accept it! I dont want anyone but you. Can you give me a

chance? If you agree, I’ll find a way to get my family’s approval”

I’m not clear on how Russel fought with his family for Bonnie Tueley during my past life, but I know he

made a lot of sacrifices for it, some of which even seemed crazy

If he could become good friends with Neil, they must have something in common,

“Calm down first. Russel, you are usually a very mature and steady person. I believe you can also

handle your emotions in love, right?” I quickly softened my tone, Didn’t you teach me before? Let go

when you should. Letting go is a kind of liberation.”

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. I held my breath, waiting for Russel’s

response

Finally, he spoke again, ‘Give me some time. I’ll try to give you up, but if I really can’t let go, can you

give me another chance?”

If I say some harsh words now, it may backfire.

As long as Russel was willing to try to give up on the, there was still hope.

I thought for a moment and replied, “Okay. You first agree to the arranged date at home. Maybe among

the people you meet, you might find the type you like?”

Russel just laughed, sounding a bit tired.

I felt a bit quilty, so I hung up the phone first.

I didn’t know when Russel started to like me or what he liked about me. I didn’t want to go into it with

him for fear of making things more complicated. Fortunately, Russel was a man of his word. Within

three days, I heard that he had gone on a date

Russel’s charm is self evident. As long as he wants to get married, there will definitely be many

excellent women waiting for his choice

“The Miller family’s daughter is also great! She is as pretty as a doll and a graduate of a prestigious

school“” Alicia said while drinking coffee.

At the weekend gathering, Stella brought her daughter Leila. While feeding Leila yogurt, she agreed,

“I’ve seen the Miller family’s daughter a few times.

She’s outgoing and looks good. I heard that a lot of people are pursuing her. She and Russel match

well!”

Barbara, on the other hand, felt it was a pity, “Rena, are you really not going to accept him? I think you

two match well too!

I took a sip of coffee, feeling the rich, bitter flavor spreading on my tongue, “Not suitable. You don’t

want me, a divorced old woman, to tarnish Dr. Russel, do you?”

e, that’s not right,” Stella frowned, “Why do you always belittle yourself? So what if you’ve been

divorced? There are so many divorced people. Are

all inferior?”

I didn’t respond.

all them about what Faith Whitmore and Lauretta had said to me.

To be honest, I felt a bit depressed. I had never been looked down upon like this except by Neil,

Maybe it’s because I felt embarrassed, so I didnt tell my friends. Or maybe it’s because I felt it was

pointless to say it, it would just make them more upset, so I didn’t say it

“Who’s that?” Suddenly, Barbara whispered to us.

We looked in the direction she was looking. It was Malinda and Louis Aldridge.

The two were wearing matching outfits behaving intimately, but they didn’t match in terms of looks.

I never understood why Louis would fall for Malinda Apart from other reasons, Just based on Malinda’s

morals, she didn’t match Louis,

I’ll never forget the righteous look on her face when she accused me for Bonnie

Malinda also saw us. She pulled Louis to the spot next to us, deliberately pulling the chair loudly,

attracting everyone’s attention.

“You’re here too. What a coincidence!” Louis greeted us cheerfully when he saw us.

“Yeah, what a coincidence” I responded with a slight smile, then continued to drink my coffee.

Malinda sat across from me. She looked at me coldly, then said sarcastically, “Some people even have

the mood to drink coffee here?”

There’s no need to guess. The ‘some people she’s referring to is me.

Like Bonnie, as long as I’m around, Malinda would buzz around me like a fly.

“Malindal” Louis obviously heard Malinda’s rudeness. He immediately whispered a reminder to her,

“Don’t be like this.”

“What did I say wrong? I just find it strange. Didn’t someone say she loved Neil for many years? How

come she’s so relaxed now? Was she pretending before?” Malinda said angrily, “She indulges in self–

gratification and hurts Bonnie. I can’t stand people like that?”

See, I told you she has no morals.

At this moment, Leila in Stella’s arms, suddenly knocked over the yogurt, Stelta laughed, “My daughter

can’t stand the dog barking either!”

“Who are you cursing?” Malinda slammed the table and stood up. There was a trace of impatience and

disgust on Louis’s face, but it quickly returned to

narrat

“Whoever makes a fuss, curse whoever Stells replied indifferently.

1/2

“Did I talk to you?” Malinda pointed at me, “Irene, you only know how to hide. Don’t you dare to say a

few words?”

I found this too ridiculous, “If a dog bites me, should I bite it back too?”

Being called a dog again, Malinda’s face looked very ugly. People around started whispering, obviously

discussing about us.

I didn’t want to be the focus, so I got up to leave

Malinda stopped me. She said in a know–it–all tone, “Today Neil and Bonnie went to the cemetery

together. Ms. Gloria and Kate also went.”

Gloria already gave me the heads up that she planned to visit Karina Aaron and invited Neil along.

Now he’s game to tag along? Fascinating.

“You really think your push–pull tactics are gonna work? You’re no match for Bonnie, no matter what.

It’s pathetic being the ignored one.” Malinda thought she’d landed a blow, her tone growing smugger,

totally unbothered about maintaining a good image in front of her boyfriend.

Louis looked torn, apparently wanting to rein in Malinda but unsure of how to go about it

“Malinda, you’re such an evil dimwit I picked up my bag, looking at Malinda with pity, “Bonnie is so

lucky to have such a dumb puppet like you.”
