Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 360

I had been digging for info on Snow, hoping to unmask her real identity. But I never imagined that I would find out her true identity from Russel

She was actually Karina Aaron, who was supposed to have been dead a long time ago.

I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. I just sat there, stunned.

“What’s up? Can’t handle it?” Russel asked me.

“But isn’t she supposed to be dead?” I retorted.

“No, the heart Bonnie got wasn’t Karina’s. Karina has been abroad all these years.” Russel explained, “The reason I know this is because Gloria and Bonnie once asked me to look into Karina’s pregnancy. I didn’t expect to find this.”

So, Russel found the info on Karina’s pregnancy. Back then, he was indeed on Bonnie’s side. Were they trying to screw me and Neil over?

At this moment, I was utterly bewildered. I couldn’t figure out whether I was sad or shocked. My mind was just blank.

“How… How did you know she’s back?” I finally managed to ask after a while.

“Weren’t you looking for info on Snow last time? I did some digging too. I’ve known Karina for a while now. I could recognize her eyes.” Russel answered calmly.

Just from a few blurry photos, Russel managed to recognize Karina.

And the last time Karina came to my apartment to see me, Neil sat face-to-face with Karina on the couch but didn’t recognize her. Even though she was wearing a mask and sunglasses, did he not notice that they sounded similar?
