Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 352

I hesitated for a second, then picked up the phone, “Hello?”

“So, if I don’t reach out to you, are you planning on ghosting me for the rest of your life?” Neil’s tone was full of bitterness, making it sound like I had done him wrong.

I paused before saying, “Actually, that’s not true. Didn’t I send you the FarHorizon Group’s information a few days ago?”

Neil didn’t respond to that. For a moment, I thought he had hung up.

“You’re really pushing it, aren’t you?” Neil was seething. “Over a month has passed. You knewil was injured, but all you’ve done in the past month is send me some FarHorizon Group stuff, and you’ve barely said a word to me, let alone ask how I’m doing.”

That was all new to me. Neil was getting pissed off at me for being cold?

That version of him was both strange and familiar because it reminded me of how I used to be.

Just as I was about to respond, Bonnie’s voice drifted over, “Neil, didn’t you say you would take me out to dinner? Let’s go. I’m hungry!”

Her voice was sweet and her tone tender. Obviously, she and Neil were close.

A chill shot through me, and though I knew it was all an act, I couldn’t ignore the pang of jealousy.

Neil abruptly hung up. Was he afraid that I would be upset to hear his reply, or was he afraid that Bonnie would find out he had called me?

What right did I have to blame him? This was the path I chose.

I buried my troubles deep down and took a deep breath, focusing on my work and figuring out how to get Ethan Foster’s information from Gloria’s safe.
