Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 139

I got home and received a call from Stella who brought me some fresh gossip.

Bonnie was in the hospital!

She wasn't quite sure why Bonnie was admitted.

"Is Neil with her at the hospital?" I asked.

"Yup, he's the one who took Bonnie Bitch to the hospital," Stella speculated. "Why would she be hospitalized all of a sudden? She's so young. Don't tell me she's pregnant?!"

My heart skipped a beat, feeling as if someone had discovered my secret. Neil had told me that he and Bonnie hadn't slept together, so Bonnie shouldn't be pregnant.

"I don't know, let them be," I replied.

Stella agreed, "Yeah, forget them. You're fabulous on your own!"

After hanging up, I felt distracted and my eyelid kept twitching. I had an uneasy feeling, but I didn't know why.

Tomorrow afternoon, I'd be flying to Caladonia with Harold. I hoped nothing messy would happen.

In the evening, Oscar sent me a message: [Irene, I went home for a funeral. I'll be back in town this afternoon. Let's have lunch together tomorrow, okay?]

Me: [Sure, stay safe.]

The next noon, I met Oscar. He was still holding his luggage bag, probably hadn't even gone back to his place to drop it off yet.

He seemed a bit awkward at first, but slowly relaxed as we talked.

We found a food court in a shopping mall. Oscar gradually opened up and asked me about things overseas.

"Oscar, did you know that Bonnie also went to study in Caladonia?" I suddenly brought up the topic.

Oscar paused and then nodded, "I heard from a friend, but I don't know the details. I barely have any contact with her."

"Hmm, it's Neil who paid for her," I took a sip of water and continued, "I heard something. It wasn't Neil who initiated contact with Bonnie, it was the other way round. Did you know that?"

Upon hearing this, Oscar's expression changed, and he looked a bit guilty. He remained silent.

I didn't mean to blame him. From a certain perspective, he was a man of integrity. Even after breaking up with his girlfriends, he never bad-mouthed them.

Otherwise, he could have made things worse for Bonnie by revealing everything he knew to the media during her cyberbullying period. That would've definitely added fuel to the fire.

But Oscar didn't do that. He wasn't that kind of person.

"Oscar?" I casually repeated my question, "Did you hear what I just said? Do you know that Bonnie initiated contact with Neil?"

It was then that Oscar looked at me again, his eyes conflicted.

I stared back at him, my gaze firm.

Finally, he nodded, "Yes, I know."

Oscar had seen the messages Bonnie sent to Neil. That was why he was so upset back then. He found out that his beloved girlfriend took the initiative to contact a married man!

And Bonnie knew that the married man got her contact through someone else.

Bonnie had many suitors, and he always knew that. He was able to handle it.
