Chapter 238

I was speechless and just silently stared at Neil

Neil walked to the car, opened the passenger door, quickly got in, and sat down. “I was just joking. Take me to a nearby hotel”

Upon hearing Bonnie’s voice, Neil wanted to hang up.

Bonnie seemed to have anticipated Neil’s intention, quickly adding, “Neil, the Finch family is on the brink of collapse; you don’t need to think about Irene anymore. Why let her drag you down?”
