Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 203

If my memory served me right, my neighbors moved abroad ages ago and only popped back in for a flying visit every once in a blue moon. I had been living here for donkey years and I had only bumped into them once or twice.

Now, had this mansion been sold to Neil?

I couldn’t stop Neil from buying the house, but the thought of us being neighbors again gave me the creeps.

He used to be my neighbor across the way in another country, and now he was my neighbor again.

The idea of him being my neighbor again didn’t exactly have me jumping for joy, but there was something else that piqued my interest.

“Russel put Finn behind bars, but someone’s got Bonnie’s back. I don’t buy that her stepparents did it. Was it you?” I asked.

Besides Neil, I couldn’t think of anyone else who could keep Russel in check.

I knew Russel must have pulled the family strings, but I didn’t get why his parents would let him.

Neil, with his hands in his pockets, radiated a kind of glow.

“She’s my girlfriend, so I helped her. What’s wrong with that?” He asked me.

I laughed at his response, “Ha, nothing wrong with that. Give her my thanks. If it wasn’t for her drama, I wouldn’t even be with Russel.

Upon hearing my response, Neil’s face turned stormy.

I turned on my heel and made a beeline for home.

Upon arriving home, my mom was fussing over a pot of flowers in the living room. She asked, “Did you know that the house next door had been sold?“

I took a seat, speechless.

I’m not sure who bought it yet. Let’s pop over and say hi to our new neighbors tonight. Mom said with a hint of a smile on her face.
