Reborn, Reawakened, Rekindled novel Chapter 94

There was just too much news for me to appreciate one by one. I just skimmed through the content and read some comments.

“Can this girl stop embarrassing us female college students? Does she think she's Cinderella just because she thinks she's his lover?”

“She's actually pretty attractive. If she didn't go after married men, she could totally find a good single man.’

“If a good-looking, rich, and affectionate man pursued me, I might be tempted too. After all, women always have a bit of a thing for their heroes, right? (Hey, don't get me wrong! My parents are still alive, and I have a boyfriend, but we're not married, and he hasn't cheated. I'm just talking about the dark side of human nature.)”

“Who is Neil's wife? Why is she always silent when Neil cheats? Did she learn the art of endurance in Japan?”

There were those who condemned Bonnie and those who understood her, even some who defended her. And then there were her so-called ‘friends,’ who claimed to know everything about Neil and me and then spilled secrets that even I don't know about.

My head was spinning, and, in the end, I just had to close the web page.

I didn't expect this matter to get so much attention. It was just lukewarm a few days ago, but now my dad had already seen it. It was trending, so probably all my close friends and family knew about it.

It was mainly because Bonnie attempted suicide last night, and Neil jumped in to save her. That was what triggered the whole thing.

Sure enough, the chat groups with my friends quickly heated up.

Stella sent a message. “OMG! Neil is such a douche! Who jumps into the sea to save their mistress? He’s really something!”

Stella continued. “Rena, you’ve gotta go through with the divorce this time! What's the point of being with a man like that?

Barbara replied. “You guys are getting a divorce? How come I didn't know about it?”

Alicia also chimed in. “Good for you; we can't let ourselves be deceived.”

Barbara then told them about her suspicions. “I find it strange. Who would be lucky enough to capture Neil saving Bonnie? I'm suspicious; could this be a drama directed by Bonnie herself?

Stella had the same idea in mind. “Exactly! Neil's mom just went to see Bonnie a few days ago, and now she's trying to show how deeply Neil is in love with her. He's even risking his life!”

I watched their discussion but didn't know what to say, so I just silently put down my phone.

After a while, Stella called, "Rena, you're not going to the hospital, are you?"

"No." I replied.

“Good, you shouldn’t go. I heard Neil is in the hospital with Bonnie, being all caring and stuff, so don't go and upset yourself. Just divorce him and start fresh!" Stella said angrily.

"Where did you hear this? Did Russel tell you?" I asked.

"No, just heard it from someone." Stella's voice was a bit unnatural, then she continued loudly, "Anyway, if you keep torturing yourself like this, I'll lose all respect for you!"

I've been too passive and submissive over the years, so it was natural that Stella and the others were upset. I should be more like Barbara, who made a decision instantly in the situation with Norman.

I should learn from her!

“Okay, I will take more care of myself.” I firmly answered.

Stella chatted with me for a while before hanging up.

I've moved out of Sterling Estates a few days ago, and Neil probably didn’t know. He probably didn’t know that I had filed for divorce either.

He probably had no clue that I had moved to a new apartment as well.
