Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 464

Neil walked over and picked up the bouquet, his face emotionless as he took a sniff.

I was taken aback, blurting out, “Last time I saw you holding flowers was our wedding day, and you looked terrible.”

Only I knew how I felt that day.

Neil exuded nothing but repulsion towards me. When he presented me with the bouquet, his eyes were devoid of warmth, as if he was handing me a knife instead.

Everyone else was happy for me then. Stella and my parents included. Despite knowing that my love was unrequited, they were happy that I managed to marry Neil.

My heart was torn between joy and sorrow, unable to fully describe my feelings.

Neil, still holding the flowers, froze for a second as if lost in thought.

“Why bring up something from so long ago?” He asked.

I didn’t know.

Memories have a way of resurfacing when you least expect it.

I didn’t answer Neil’s question, instead telling him, “Those flowers were from Karina.”

Upon hearing Karina’s name, Neil’s expression shifted, a distinct displeasure painted in his eyes. He probably didn’t want Karina visiting me, regardless of her reasons.

The next moment, Neil tossed the bouquet into the trash, a move that took me by surprise.

“If you don’t like them, throw them away. Why keep them around?” After disposing of the flowers, Neil brushed his hands off, his tone nonchalant, as if forgetting the flowers were actually from his current girlfriend.
