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.

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