Chapter 2511
“‘Theo and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. My fiance is Caleb Crawford, the heir of the wealthiest family in Lincoln City.” Luke smiled when he heard this. “Since when did Caleb become straight?” The color drained from Rachel‘s face. She pursed her lips slightly and stood up with a flourish. “I intended to talk to you about Ms. Larson‘s condition, Mr. Jones, but if you insist on chatting about unrelated topics like this… I shall leave now.”
With that, she turned and strode away.
Luke let out a snort and left the hospital too.
Gwen had been doing fine up until this moment, but according to Rachel, she had vomited blood once more… This meant that she probably did not have even a week left. He needed to bring the surgery forward.
That evening, a van pulled up in front of the gates to Swan Lake Chalet.
The grocer got out of the van and ordered the driver to help him unload his groceries, all the while muttering about how annoying the three children were under his breath. “Get all the vegetables out of the car and bring them into the kitchen. Don‘t linger around the house for too long; the three children will get mad if they catch you!”
The driver, who was dressed in black and wearing a cap and face mask, nodded obediently, limped toward the back of the van, and started unloading it.
He dragged the sack of groceries into the kitchen and let out a sigh of relief after he put everything down. As soon as he turned around, however, he caught sight of a familiar pink silhouette.
Nellie, who was wearing a pink dress, blinked innocently as she stared at the man. “Is that you, Uncle Malcolm?”
Malcolm was so shocked that his entire body froze up. A split second later, he took off his mask, frowning, and asked in a low voice, “How did you know it was me?”
