Chapter 371

“Russel Dawson, there’s no need for you to get involved in this. As long as Neil doesn’t find me and doesn’t know I’m pregnant, everything will be fine.” I rejected

Russel’s advice.

I was indeed worried about Neil finding out about my pregnancy, but I didn’t want to get tangled up with Russel again because of that.

Russel asked back, “You don’t believe in Neil’s ability to find people?”

I did. He always had ways to find the people he wanted, including evidence, but since he had Karina Aaron by his side, he probably wouldn’t have wasted his time

on me.

“Just let it be. All you need to do is keep your promise to Mrs. Finch and not tell anyone about me. Even if something happens later, I won’t blame you.” I still didn’t plan to listen to Russel. That was not only weird for me but also unfair to him.

We tried dating before, and it was a total flop. There was no need to repeat the same mistake then.

“I won’t force you. I’m just giving you a piece of advice. If you ever need me, just let me know. I’ll probably be around here for a while.” Russel was not upset by my rejection; he just spoke to me kindly.

I hope I never have to rely on Russel. If the day comes, it means I’m back in the messy situation with Neil, unable to solve the problem with the babies.

After Russel left, I lost my sleepiness. From time to time, I would check the blocked numbers in my contacts and see that the cold number I blocked was lined up with the number I blocked from Neil previously.

Then I opened my inbox, only to find two messages from that number.
