Chapter 193

I totally wanted to make a U–turn and speed off, but Stella and her daughter were still in my car, I had

no choice but to suck it up and drop them off at their doorstep.

“My wife is back! Mitch, all dressed up, probably just got back from work. Seeing Stella get out of my

car, he immediately rushed over to pick up Lella and enthusiastically greeted Stella.

Russel’s gaze fell on me for a few seconds before shifting away

I also deliberately avoided Russel s gaze. Once Stella and Leila got out of the car, I was ready to leave.

“Hold on!” Mitch suddenly called out to me, “Rena, could you give Russel a lift? He didn’t bring his car

and I don’t have the time to drive him.”

Hearing this, Stella gave me a knowing wink.

My instinct was to refuse, but Russel looked at me again; his eyes were complex and a bit repressed.

I let out a deep sigh, “Alright. Dr. Russel, I’ll take you home”

Russel didn’t say a word. He kept his lips tight but seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He nodded at

Mitch, then got into my car.

He had a scent of woman’s perfume on him today

I drove in silence, heading to Russel’s apartment. I’d been there once before and remembered the

general route.

“I had a blind date today: Russel broke the silence first, “We met, had dinner, and chatted”

“That’s nice. How old is she? What does she look like?‘ I casually asked

Russel didn’t answer. I couldn’t help but glance at him. He sat upright in the passenger seat, his profile

expressionless.

Did I say something wrong again? Wasn’t I just showing concern for him?

Never mind, it’s probably better if I just keep quiet and drive

So I kept silent, not asking anymore about Russel’s blind date. It wasn’t until the car arrived at his

apartment building that I broke the silence, “We’re here.” “Wait for me. I need to take Boomer for

deworming, Russel said to me in a slightly gloomy tone as he unbuckled his seat belt, ‘My car is in the

shop for maintenance. The other cars are at home. Can you give me a ride again?”

“Sure. I’ll wait for you here” What else could I say?

While Russel went to get Boomer, I was stuck in a curious thought Is this what it feels like to be loved

by someone I don’t love?

Did that mean Neil had been dealing with this kind of trouble for the ten years I was chasing him?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was off. Why was I starting to feel sympathy for

Neil? I must be going crazy

“Meow” The car door opened again. A cute meow interrupted my messy thoughts

Russel had changed his clothes. He was now in a white t–shirt and gray pants, very simple and casual.

God had been kind to him, leaving almost no traces of age on his face, so as long as he changed his

style a bit, he looked very young

As long as his gaze wasnt so cold.

Boomer seemed to remember me in the cage, he kept meowing, trying to get close to me, but without

success.

“Boomer is looking more handsome” I leaned in to look at the kitten, unable to suppress my

compliment.

“You hold the cage I’ll drive.” Russel suddenly handed the cage to me.

I didn’t know which pet store he was going to, so I switched places with him and sat in the passenger

seat holding the cage, occasionally teasing Boomer. On the way, Russel and I hardly spoke a few

words

After we arrived at the pet store, I didn’t get out of the car with Russel.

Tll call a friend to pick me up later. You can go ahead,” Russel said to me from outside the car window,

holding the cat cage.

“Okay. Russel, I have a favor to ask, I hesitated for a moment but decided to speak up. “Could you not

tell anyone about my infertility? Please?”

Russel’s gaze deepened He asked, “Even if I dont mind, you wouldn’t choose me, would you?”

He had a self–deprecating smile on his face. “I understand. I won’t tell anyone.”

With that, he entered the pet store.

I breathed a sigh of relief but also felt a little upset. If I could fall in love with Russel, it might not be bad.

I believe he would do anything for me. But it seemed I couldn’t fall in love with anyone anymore. All my

capacity for love was lost in my marriage with Nell

I drove home. After some thinking, I contacted the media.

Soon, news of Neil and Bonnie rekindling their old flame surfaced. As the whistle blower, I was

indifferent.

Bonnie probably didn’t expect me to be so kind to her, even helping her reignite her romance with Neil.

Their past story was brought up again, and people were discussing it online, eventually forming two

camps.

One believed Neil accompanying Bonnie to the cemetery was a sign of their reunion. They had always

had a thing for each other but were separated for Two years due to some issues.

The other camp believed it signaled a potential collaboration between Whitmore Co. and Harmony

Enterprises. They didn’t meet because of lingering feelings but for business interests

While Neil and Bonnie became a hot topic, I had already packed up and started working at my family’s

company

Stella quickly organized a party to celebrate my becoming a working woman. On Friday night, as soon

as I got off work, they dragged me into Cielo

Nocturno.

I hadn’t been here for a drink in a long time. I drank one glass after another and soon felt tipsy. Before

long, the four of us got a little drunk

“Rena, just a heads up…” Stella suddenly leaned in and whispered in my ear, “Neil is trying to figure

out who leaked the news about him and Bonnie. It seems like he’s found out it was you‘

“Cough, cough, cough.“I almost choked. Does Neil really have that much free time?

“Why did you do that? Stella squinted at me,

I felt a bit drunk, so I replied directly. “I just don’t want to be bothered by Neil, so I gave him something

to do. What do you think of my idea?”

Stella glanced behind me, and her expression seemed a bit off. She immediately covered my mouth,

“You’re drunk. That’s why you’re talking nonsense.”

I was kinda pissed, so I pushed Stella’s hand away. “I’m not talking nonsense! I’m telling the truth,

Hasn’t he always been all tangled up with Bonnie? Then he should just keep entangling with her, not

bothering me. From now on, I’ll leak his news to the media every day. If thats not enough, I’ll spill the

beans about Karina too.”

Just then, a hand reached from behind me and took my glass away

I turned around in confusion. Neil stood behind me, his face stern. His indifference stood out in stark

contrast to the lively atmosphere around us

Even though Stella and the others always said Neil was a bad guy, it seemed like I was the one caught

red–handed right now. For a moment, all four of up were left speechless
