Chapter 405
Alas, so many things in life were unpredictable. Just a short period later,
Claudette was on the cold hospital bed and might not ever open her eyes
again.
By now, Mackenzie held no enmity toward her and was filled with guilt
instead. That was why she decided to take over her post in the tèa club as a
little tribute to her memory.
“Huh? What do you need? Hang on, let me send you the files.” Quintus felt
that he had hit the jackpot, thinking that he would have the opportunity to
bond with Mackenzie every week after this. Such an amazing thing had never
occurred to him, not even in his wildest dreams!
Soon, he took her to the house that Claudette used to live in and led her to
Claudette’s room. The style and furnishing of the room were completely
different from Mackenzie’s because the room was filled with imagination, a
display of Claudette’s romanticism.
It makes sense now why she would fall for that idiotic Emmanuel, Mackenzie
sneered silently.
Meanwhile, Quintus, the dunce, was still looking around for the information
that Claudette left behind, appearing very silly. Now that she had a
comparison, she now understood that Emmanuel was actually smart
because he would get things done systematically, far better than Quintus.
Suddenly, her gaze scanned downward and she saw a delicate book that
Quintus had just casually tossed out on the desk. So, she picked it up and
flipped it open out of curiosity.
“Is this… a diary?” She wouldn’t expect that a person like Claudette would
have the habit of writing diaries. She initially wanted to close the book and
place it back, but she suddenly saw Emmanuel’s name.
‘December 24, 2019. I think I’ve met that man of my dreams. He’s probably six
feet tall and very good–looking, but he’s actually a gynecologist. More
importantly, he can cure my strange illness! He’s so honest and gentle, and
his eyes were as still as water when he removed my pants. I felt his gaze
piercing through my heart like a laser. Am I in love? For a person who had
never fallen for a man, did I really fall in love at first sight? This is
unbelievable! Okay, I need to observe him carefully.’
When Mackenzie read until this point, she seemed to have fallen under a
spell. As it turned out, Claudette already knew Emmanuel three years ago
and fell for him at that time. So, between her and Claudette, who was the
third party in this relationship?
Mackenzie couldn’t stop herself and flipped to the next page. Interspersed
between Claudette’s beautiful and neat handwriting was her faint but
sincere love for Emmanuel. Since that day, almost every day of her diary was
related to him.
‘This damned, weird illness. Why isn’t it acting up? Then, I can have a reason
to look for Dr. Lowe again!‘
‘This is amazing! Today, my illness finally acted up and Dr. Lowe performed
acupuncture on me again. His eyes are still as clear as always, but why is this
man uninterested in my body? He has almost seen everything!‘
