Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 365

I guess I underestimated Ethan Foster and Gloria.

Even though they were both behind bars, one only got a three-and-a-half-year sentence, and the other one got extradited due to her foreign nationality. It was hard to say if they were really punished or not.

But there was also some good news. Dad had finally been released, and new investigations into Oscar’s death concluded that Bonnie was the one to blame. Oscar was about to leave Rosemont, but Bonnie invited him over for one last time. He went, but never came back.

Hannah Morse was so angry when she learned the truth about Oscar’s death that she could have killed Bonnie on the spot. But Bonnie had already been arrested, so she could only be punished by law.

And it was not just about Oscar. Bonnie had a lot of other dirty laundry that had been aired in the tapes that Malinda gave me. Even if she wasn’t in jail, she’d be condemned by everyone.

“Dad!”

My mom and I stood outside the prison, waiting for my dad. When he appeared, I couldn’t help but shout.

My mother’s eyes reddened, and she walked up to greet him with me.

After seeing Mom and me, Dad couldn’t contain his excitement. He hugged us tightly, and at that moment, I felt like our family was complete.

On our way home, I told my dad all about what had happened lately.

After listening, he frowned. “Are you and Neil planning to get back together?”

My mom sighed. “I don’t approve, but Neil did put in a lot of effort for you to overturn the case. And ever since you came back, he’s been trying to make amends. It’s your call.”
