Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 503

After playing with the kids for a while, I bathed them and got them ready for bed. After a moment of hesitation, I sent a message to Faith, telling her about Neil’s visit and his

attitude.

Faith quickly replied: [I get it, he’s always been set in his ways.]

Indeed, there was nothing I could do about it.

Once I got it off my chest, I felt much more relaxed and quickly fell asleep.

Stella called while I was helping the kids get dressed. I put her on speaker and tossed my phone aside. Her voice was loud and clear, “Rena, you’re back in Rosemont. Let’s get the girls together; it’s been too long!”

“I barely have time with two kids to look after; how do you manage with three?” I asked, laughing.

“Come on, if you have the money, why worry about taking care of kids? My sister hired three nannies for me, one for each kid. They’re all great, I’ve checked. I can trust them!” Stella replied cheerfully, a far cry from the gloom that surrounded her divorce. She was back to her old, bubbly self.

True, but I couldn’t exactly go out to a gathering at the moment, my nanny was still in Eldoria.

Understanding my situation, Stella suggested we meet at her place. She said her nannies. could help look after my kids too, making the most of the resources!

Under her insistent urging, I agreed to go and we planned to meet in the afternoon.

After lunch, I mentioned my plans to Bailey and Hannah. Bailey said it would be inconvenient for me to travel with two kids, so he offered to drive me to Stella’s place. I nodded in agreement.

Stella was now living in a house under her name, with her three children, three nannies, and three housekeepers. She was living a comfortable life. When I arrived, Alicia and Barbara were already there.
