Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 344

That was the start of the cold war between Neil and me. From that day forward, we didn't have any contact for two bloody months.

During the peak of summer, the air was filled with heatwaves, but that was nothing compared to Neil's passion for Bonnie. I constantly saw pictures of them getting all cuddly on the internet. Like that time when Neil bought an island for Bonnie and named it after her. Or when Bonnie would often deliver homemade lunches to Neil at the Whitmore Co. Building. Their interactions were increasingly couple-like, all mushy and lovey-dovey.

My feelings, on the other hand, went from jealous rage to a sort of numbness.

My friends, especially Stella, were utterly bamboozled.

"Are you two filming a drama series or something?" Stella asked, puzzled. "When we were against you, you insisted on chasing Neil. When we stopped opposing, you had a fall out and divorced from him. It looked like you wanted to get back together; we opposed it again, and now... you've broken up with him again?"

Alicia and Barbara were also wearing bewildered expressions.

I didn't know what to say, so I just chuckled awkwardly.

"Are you done with Neil this time?" Stella asked bluntly.

"I don't know." My answer made them all drop their jaws. They couldn't believe I might still have a thing with Neil.

But that was what I truly felt, and I didn't want to hide it from them. It'd only complicate things and make me seem dishonest.

Just as Stella was about to dig deeper, her phone rang.

"Are you free? Okay, I'll be right there!" After hanging up, Stella was all excited. She grabbed her bag and was ready to leave, "Guys, the amazing obstetrician and gynecologist I told you about before is back in town. She can see me today. I have to go!"

Hearing that, I stood up subconsciously and said, "I'll go with you."

Stella was taken aback, "You're coming with me?"

"Yeah, I have nothing better to do anyway." I replied casually.

"Alright then, let's get going." Stella was in a hurry. Without even saying goodbye to Alicia and Barbara, she dragged me out of the house.

The doctor who just returned from abroad was named Snow. She was said to be young and had been working in a foreign hospital.

Stella couldn't stop singing her praises, making me look forward to meeting her.

Snow seemed to be a mysterious figure, reputed for her superb medical skills and her knack for diagnosing and treating illnesses, especially in obstetrics and gynecology.

That day, she arranged to meet Stella at a guesthouse hotel.

I was a bit puzzled. I thought, “Don't we need medical instruments for a consultation? Is she a miracle worker or a quack?”

When I expressed my doubts to Stella, she immediately cited various examples to prove Snow's medical prowess.

When we arrived at the guesthouse, Stella and I were standing in front of a room when Bonnie came out before we could knock.

"I booked the only appointment with Dr. Snow today. You'll have to come another time," Bonnie said coldly.

"Bullshit! She just called me half an hour ago and asked me to come over!" Stella shot back angrily.

Bonnie didn't seem to care, "So what? She changed her mind and decided to see me today. You know about my health condition. If I don't get proper treatment and rest, it will affect my future pregnancy plans."
