Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 391

“Hiram, that’s enough. Your father isn’t fond of public displays of affection,” Karina chimed in, and a warm smile graced her face. The cheerfulness she constantly exuded was reminiscent of Gloria.

It was no wonder that Gloria preferred Karina over Kate. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water.

Neil felt my gaze and glanced at me before gently placing his arm around Karina’s slender waist. She looked elegant in a white sundress, a perfect match for him.

Upon feeling Neil’s touch, Karina leaned her head affectionately against his arm, her face lighting up with a smile.

“Hey, over here.” Russel’s voice pulled me back to reality.

What was I doing, watching my ex-husband and his sweetheart living their happily-ever-after?

“Come here. Let’s take a picture together. Let’s get someone to snap a shot for us.” I beckoned Russel over.

“Us? Together?” Russel seemed surprised but quickly flashed a smile, “Sure.”

But who could we have asked to take the picture?

Ignoring everyone else, I waited for Hiram to finish taking pictures of Neil and Karina before turning to him, “Hiram, could you take a couple of photos for us?”

Hiram stopped in his tracks, looking confused.

Neil and Karina, expressionless, joined us.

“Hiram’s photography skills are average, Miss Finch. How about I take the pictures for you?” Karina offered.

“Sure.” Russel agreed immediately, handing his phone over to Karina.

Despite my reluctance, I didn’t object.
