Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 95

I was looking for Simmons when one of Bonnie’s friends deliberately shoulder–checked me as she walked by

“Hold up!” I wasn’t gonna take that lying down. I grabbed her arm and snapped, ‘Are you blind? Apologize!”

No sooner had I said that than her friend came running over, calling, “Malinda!”

Malinda glanced at her approaching friend, then shook off my hand, “What’s the big idea, old lady?”

She was about the same age as Bonnie, so calling me an old lady was ridiculous. I got the message.

“What’s up?” Malinda’s friend asked

It’s all her fault! She’s the reason Bonnie tried to off herself!” Malinda pointed a finger at me.

Her friend looked at me with hostility

I was both pissed and amused, “My fault? Why would she try to kill herself if she hadn’t done anything wrong? Did you guys waste your time in school? Don’t ethics and honesty matter anymore?”

“Bonnie has always rejected your husband” Malinda fumed, “It’s your hubby who won’t leave her alone. Why don’t you give him a piece of your mind? And besides, everyone knows your marriage is nothing but a business deal. You’re just bitter because you can’t get a guy’s love, right?”

Simmons seemed to notice the argument that was going on and came over

He stood by my side and asked, “What’s going on?”

Malinda looked at Simmons and was obviously taken aback. Young girls like her couldn’t resist a good looking guy. I noticed earlier during the performance that Malinda would occasionally glance at Simmons while she was glaring at me.

She probably thought Simmons and I didn’t know each other due to the crowded scene
