Chapter 510

After hearing Stella’s words, a sense of urgency and concern flashed across Russel’s eyes, tinged with a hint of reproach. He questioned me, “Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”

“Weren’t you with Karina at that time?” I retorted.

Russel seemed to be taken aback by my response and just stared at me in silence.

Stella defended me, “Don’t look at Rena like that. I used to encourage her to accept you, thinking you were a decent and loyal man, not like Neil. But it seems I was wrong. Birds of a feather flock together, huh? How could clear water spring from a mire?”

Russel’s face darkened at her harsh words. Luckily, we were alone, so there was no one else to witness his humiliation.

“I had something important to deal with last night,” Russel started, pausing to glance at Stella. His gaze was slightly hesitant, but then he regained his composure and asked, “Since you knew Karina was here, did you tell Neil?”

“Why would I tell Neil? It’s their business, not mine.” I replied nonchalantly.

“Alright, I understand.” Russel contemplated for a moment before turning towards the front door. “Is Serena in there too? I’d like to see her.”

Stella looked at me questioningly, but I subtly shook my head, not wanting her to stop Russel.

Russel’s affection for the kids was genuine, untainted by any pretense. I wasn’t heartless enough to keep him away from them.

Still, I felt compelled to say, “Please wait here for a minute. I’ll bring Serena out.’

Russel halted in his tracks.
