Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 355

"What's this stuff?" Neil's gaze fell on my medicine as a frown appeared on his face. "Are you feeling unwell?"

I replied impatiently, "It's a tonic. That woman you just saw is my doctor. You might've pissed her off."

Neil casually picked up the medicine, sniffed it, and made a dismissive comment. "What kind of doctor offers home delivery service?"

"She's not working in any hospital at the moment. She just got back from abroad. Could you look up some information on her?" I was suspicious of Snow's identity. If Neil could find something out, it might be helpful. I needed to know who she really was.

My health was in her hands, after all. I needed to be careful.

Neil raised an eyebrow. "Irene, are you out of your mind? You're entrusting your health to a freelance doctor? You think you've got lives to spare?"

If it weren't for Stella's pregnancy, I wouldn't have believed Snow so easily.

I didn't want to discuss my health issues with Neil. I simply packed up my medicine and said, "If you don't want to investigate, that's fine. You don't have to interfere with my decisions."

After putting away the medicine, I returned to the living room. "Let's go. Weren't we supposed to pick up Daisy from Sterling Estates?"

I was slightly angry, but Neil just laughed. He got up and wrapped his arm around my waist. "Why are you so easy to anger these days? What should I do if you're always mad at me?"

"Aren't you an expert in handling such situations?" I replied impassively.

He’d managed all his former scandals and the women he'd been with well, with no one daring to badmouth him.

Whenever I brought up the past, Neil would always look helpless. "Let's not talk about this. You know what happened with those women. Haven't I been scandal-free since our divorce?"

"What about Bonnie? The rumors are still flying." I walked out the door as I casually said this.

"Don't you know why those rumors between Bonnie and me exist?" Neil pinched my waist like he was punishing me.

I squealed in pain. Why did Neil always have to be so touchy?

But I understood Neil's frustration. After all, I was the one who caused it.

Neil's car was parked not far away. As we were bickering and heading downstairs, I spotted Snow, standing under the sun dressed in black. It wasn't even nine yet, but the sun was already scorching everything around.

She was standing not far from Neil's car, so I asked, "Snow, why are you still here?"

"I called for a ride. I'm waiting." Snow's response confused me. She shouldn't be short of money. Why didn't she have a car?

Since she'd already mentioned it, I offered to give her a ride. "Still staying at a hotel? We can give you a lift."

Neil's face fell at my suggestion. It seemed like he didn't want to play chauffeur.

Snow nodded. "Is it convenient? If so, thank you."

"Sure!" I answered before Neil could say anything. He gave me a look but didn't say anything. He just got in the car.
