Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 367

After Neil left, I was in a real funk, wondering if he would ever come back to me and if he would prefer to be with me since we’ve been together for so long.

He said he loved me, but could that easily change because of Karina?

But reality was a bitter pill to swallow. The day I moved out of Rosemont, Neil was nowhere to be seen. There were no calls and no texts. The movers were bustling about, clearing out the villa; my parents were checking the inventory, and I was sitting in the garden with Daisy, eyes closed, taking a breather.

“Dr. Russel?” My mom suddenly called out.

I opened my eyes to see Russel Dawson standing at the gate. He was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and light blue pants, looking fresh as a daisy.

What was he doing there? I was taken aback.

Most of the things from my family had been moved out, and my mom didn’t have a chance to offer Russel a cup of coffee, so he just sat in the garden, shooting the breeze. Before long, the movers called my mom away, leaving Russel and me alone.

It was quite hot under the sun, and I was breaking a sweat. Russel handed me a tissue and said, “Wipe your face.”

I took the tissue and wiped my face, then asked, “What brings you here?”

“I heard your family business is being sold, and you’re all’ moving out?” Russel asked, cool as a cucumber.

“You’re so concerned about my family. I’m touched.” Maybe because I was leaving, my mom stopped pushing me to be with Russel, so I was a bit nicer to him.

“How could I not know about such a big event, unless I’m too busy to care.” Russel said with a smile…

I was silent. Yes, only those who were too busy to care wouldn’t know. Neil had been busy taking care of Karina and didn’t have time to care about our family. The only time he came to me was when he learned from Karina that I couldn’t get pregnant again.

What a joke.
