Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled

Chapter 275

Kitty probably didn’t know about the recent drama between me and Neil. The minute she saw me, she rushed over with a big smile and grabbed my hand. Trene! When I found out you were the one my dad is meeting tonight, I came over here!”

“Take a seat Mr. Damel, you too, please smiled at Kitty and gave her father a nod

Since Kitty and I were pretty tight, the atmosphere between me and Daniel Wilson was pretty chill. As the waiter was serving food, Kitty suddenly whipped out her phone and announced, “I’m inviting Neil over!”

Daniel’s face fell. He obviously knew about the thing between me and Neil, and he wasnt too happy that his precious daughter was crushing on him.

Kitty was always one to march to her own beat, not really giving a damn what her family thought. She wouldn’t care much about her father’s disapproval.

“Irene, is that okay? I’ve been stuck with my dad recently and haven’t heard from Neil.” Kitty looked at me with hopeful eyes.

I took a sip of my coffee and said with a light smile, “Sure thing.”

Kitty dialed Neil’s number, and soon a deep but indifferent voice came through. “What’s up?”

Tm having dinner with Irene, wanna join us?” Kitty asked straight up

There was a brief silence on Neils end before he spoke again, “Cant. I’ve got a meeting tonight.”

I breathed a sigh of relief. It would’ve been super awkward if he showed up, especially with Kitty here.

“You’re such a buzzkill How about I find you after your meeting for some late-night snacks? Kitty offered again.

Neil rejected her straight away, “Can’t, I’m really busy”
