Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 457

“No need, we’re barely more than strangers. Anything to discuss can be handled over the phone,” I said, showing no interest in seeing Louis.

Yet, Louis was persistent. “Let’s meet up. We may not be close, but we’re friends. I was planning to visit my ex, Malinda’s hometown, but your actions have caused me to stay and deal with the fallout here.”

I wasn’t particularly surprised by his words until he mentioned visiting Malinda. My emotions were stirred, “Why are you visiting her when you’ve broken up? Haven’t you hurt Malinda enough, Louis?”

I didn’t particularly like Malinda. I was just commenting on Louis’s past actions which were, frankly, appalling.

To my surprise, Louis just chuckled, revealing no remorse. “I had no choice. I wanted to break up but she kept clinging on. You must’ve figured it out by now, the one I truly fancied was Bonnie.”

Now that Neil was out of the picture, Louis was showing his true colors, unabashedly.

What a peculiar man Neil was. His friends had this knack for cruelty. Birds of a feather, I suppose.

“So, what’s the point of visiting her now?” I countered.

Malinda had helped me in the end. I had convinced her to stay back in her hometown. If Louis was going to cause her trouble, I felt somewhat responsible.
