Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 127

Every time I brought up the topic of remarrying, Neil immediately became displeased. But I already had my divorce papers, what else can he do to me?

"Have you found the right one?" He asked.

"Aren't they everywhere?" I calmly respond, "Don't forget when I was pursuing you, there were plenty of others chasing after me too. I just chose you."

Neil stared at me, his eyes filled with confusion. After a long while, he managed to voice his question, "Why can we still talk so calmly? I've been thinking, did you change suddenly, or was it gradual? It feels like you changed all of a sudden, but I don't know what made you change."

I did change suddenly, because I had died once.

From Neil's perspective, he must be shocked. My feelings for him were so deep, it was impossible to let go so quickly. Even the fact that we can still talk calmly now was because I had become very calm.

In Neil's mind, he should be the one proposing the divorce, and I should be clinging on, looking unwilling. That would be normal.

"What's the big deal, weren't you also smitten with Bonnie at first sight? It's just a split-second decision, who can really explain it?" I casually explained.

"Really?" Neil didn't seem to believe, "It's not because you found someone new?"

I'm lying in bed looking at Neil, "Why do you care so much whether I have a new love interest or not?"

Neil was taken aback, seemingly realizing his jealousy, and went silent for a while, as if contemplating something.

I said, "The things we lose and can't have are always the best, right? Don't come looking for me anymore, I don't want to meddle in your business with Bonnie any longer, I wish you two happiness."

After saying this, I turned my back to Neil and stopped talking.

Neil should understand my meaning; he was just not willing to accept it. And I sincerely wish him and Bonnie happiness, so he won't have time to disturb my life.

Neil and I shared the same social circle, so even if we divorce, there will inevitably be some overlaps, but we can only be acquaintances.

"If this is what you truly want, alright, I respect your choice." I heard Neil's voice, followed by the sound of his footsteps leaving. I didn't turn around to look, I just continued to close my eyes and rest, as if he never came.

Three days later, I got the news from home, Neil announced our divorce to the media. He didn't announce it before, probably because he was indecisive between me and Bonnie.

I guess this was his final answer to me.

Stella and the others already knew about my divorce, so they weren't too shocked, instead, it was the netizens back home who started enjoying the tea.

User1: Neil divorced his wife for that college girl, right?

User2: This couple really disgusts me.

User3: Mr. Whitmore really likes Bonnie. Even though he had numerous scandals in the past, he never chose to divorce. Doesn't his wife try to get a portion of the property and leave?

User4: His wife doesn't seem to be short on money...

After reading the comments for a while, I turned off my phone. The story that had tormented me for ten years was nothing more than chitchat in the eyes of others.
