Chapter 296

First, I got wind from Bonnie that Neil once gave her a wad of cash. I tried to confront Neil face to face, but it was a big flop. Then, I got the proof from Russel.

Plus, I found out that Karina was pregnant when she kicked the bucket.

Later, when I went to Russel for the proof, I got photographed, and the pics were sent to Neil, which stirred up a row between us.

If Neil didn’t come back, then I could pretty much confirm that he had truly given up on me. Everything that followed, I would have to face on my own.
