Chapter 82

His tone was calm just a moment ago, but then it turned stern, You should be resting since you’re injured. Why are you pushing yourself?”

Was getting a cup of water considered pushing myself? I took the cup silently, my mind wandering elsewhere Neil wasn’t as cold and heartless as he seemed His tenderness and care were reserved only for the woman he loved

Bonnie was so lucky, she could enjoy Neil’s care every day

“How’s Norman?” I asked after finishing the water.

“He’s locked up at the police station. He’ll be sentenced after the procedure, probably to life,” Neil replied nonchalantly. Then he changed the subject, “And that Garnett guy. He confessed to his plan to kidnap you‘

“Okay,” I nodded, “Good”

Neil scoffed, “How’s that good?”

I was taken aback. Isn’t it good that the criminal is getting what he deserves? Neil was such a mystery

He continued, “Do you think it’s better to give your number to a stranger you met in a bar, or to go to the movies and have BBQ with him?”

I was speechless. If it wasn’t for my intention to get back at him, I wouldn’t have ended up being used by Garnett.

Neil asked again, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

After a moment of silence, I retorted, “Neil, are you jealous?”

I could feel a strong wave of jealousy, but I didn’t understand why He had no feelings for me. We had agreed to live our own lives as long as I didn’t mess with his friends.

My question seemed to embarrass Neil. He stood up abruptly and said coldly. You’re overthinking. I’m just embarrassed, so I’ll keep the media quiet. about this. Otherwise, everyone would know you were kidnapped while out with another man

This was Neil’s real thought. His status was so high, yet his wife was going behind his back with another man. If this news got out, where would his dignity be?

“I see,” I was used to his cold words. After this incident, I decided to thank Neil for saving me, “Please give me the divorce papers as soon as possible. I don’t want a penny, consider it as payment for saving me. I value my life”
