Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 465

I was stunned.

If it was due to work, I indeed couldn't ask someone to leave directly, as the stakes were too high.

Moreover, this project also involved Mitch.

"So what should I do? My family's life will be threatened after he gets out of the hospital." I was getting annoyed, and I threw the question at Neil.

Neil's answer was nonchalant, "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."

I found it amusing, "Aren't you worried that the lunatic will harm Hiram?"

As soon as I mentioned Hiram, Neil's careless attitude changed, and his tone became cold and severe, "If he dares to do so, I'll make sure he won't have a place to rest in peace!"

"What about me? I have kids too!" I challenged.

"Don't you have Russel?" Neil's words made me understand his meaning instantly. He wouldn't leave Eldoria, nor would he stay away from me. My safety should be Russel's responsibility.

I didn't know what I was feeling at this moment, but it was extremely uncomfortable.

Neil cared more about Karina and Hiram's safety, which I naturally understood. But if my danger was due to him, and he didn't take responsibility, it would upset me.

"Neil, you really are my curse. Please stay away from me in the future." I didn't want him to say more and asked him to leave, "You can go now."

Neil didn't leave.

I ignored him and lay down on the hospital bed. I pulled up the blanket, ready to take a nap.

But I felt a shadow approaching. When I opened my eyes, Neil had stood up. He leaned over, his hands propped up on both sides of my shoulders, creating a sense of entrapment.

I looked at those eyes close to me in astonishment, "Neil, what are you doing?"

"Did Louis touch you anywhere?" Neil's eyes narrowed. That was a look I recognized. It was dangerous.

"Are you crazy?!" I was both angry and speechless, "What does that have to do with you? Besides, he only ripped my clothes!"

If Louis had succeeded, I would have stabbed him with a knife while Neil was beating him.

Neil seemed to be contemplating something, and I slapped him hard, leaving a clear handprint on his fair face.

He tilted his head, the handprint on his cheek made a striking contrast.

"Alright, then there's no problem." Neil seemed to have been awakened by my slap. He got up and gently touched the side of his face that had been slapped.

I really didn't know if there was something wrong with his brain.

However, it was at this moment that Russel's voice came, cold and deep, "What are you guys doing?"

I looked in astonishment at the entrance of the ward.
