Chapter 90

I didn’t see it coming that Bonnie bringing home a guy who wasn’t Neil even though he wasn’t her boyfriend, just a guy who’s been chasing her.

Bonnie had him sit. Ada poured him some water while Dean was giving him the once over from across the table.

There I was, sitting with my head in a fog.

After a bit, Bonnie turned to me, “Trene, we need to chat”

“Sure“I got up and followed her into a bedroom.

Bonnie got straight to the point. “Trene, I bet you’re wondering why Neil’s not here. I just want to tell you even though I’ve got feelings for him, I just can’t be the homewrecker. I’ve made my stand clear to him, and I’m ready to make Dale my boyfriend”

Dale was the guy she brought home.

“Did he agree?” I asked, a tad uneasy. How could Bonnie stand up to Neil? If Neil didn’t agree, she could kiss any chance with another guy goodbye.

“Whether he agrees or not, that’s his problem,” Bonnie said, making it clear she’s made up her mind.

I couldn’t put my finger on it, but something was off. The guy Bonnie brought home was definitely not Neil.

After leaving the bedroom, I didn’t want to stick around anymore. Ada invited me to eat, but I declined. She gave me the medicine I had asked her to get, along with some instructions.

Bonnie chimed in, ‘Mom, what’s that?”

A flicker of embarrassment passed over Ada’s face before she laughed it off, “Why so nosy?”

“It’s the medicine I asked Ada to get for me,” I told Bonnie honestly, “Neil and I have been trying to have a kid. Ada got me some medicines before, they worked pretty well, but we’re still trying”

Since Bonnie has decided to reject Neil completely, my words shouldn’t affect her.

Still, I caught a flash of surprise and anger in her eyes.
