Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 116

After munching on snacks for over half an hour, I was finally stuffed.

“Hey, if you’re not too busy, could you give me a lift to the hotel?” I was so full that I didn’t feel like walking or hailing a cab

Since Neil was still hanging around, I decided to swallow my pride and ask.

Neil didn’t respond, he just turned and headed towards his car.

I quickly followed suit

At the hotel, I thanked Neil and then hurried back to my room.

Linda and I had separate rooms. I wasn’t sure if she was sleeping, so I sent her a message to let her know I was back.

Linda replied. “Alright”

Then I took a shower and started looking up pregnancy tips on my bed. I had decided to keep the baby and raise him on my own.

This was my first child, and I didn’t want to give him up. Even though I could provide him a good life, he would still lack a father’s love.

The next morning. I was awakened by the alarm clock. After quickly getting dressed and putting on light makeup, I met up with Linda. She was driving and I was sitting in the passenger seat, heading towards G City.

The drive took about eight or nine hours. By the time we arrived, it was around four in the afternoon.

My partners had already made contact. They had booked a hotel and planned to host a welcome dinner for me and Linda to discuss our future collaboration.

“Tm beat, let’s rest up a bit before heading out for dinner,” I said to Linda while lying on my bed in our twin room.

“Sounds good, I could use a break too” Linda responded, stretching out on the other bed.

She was around the same age as me, not from Caladonia, but after completing her university studies in her country, she went abroad to work.
