Chapter 2091
Luna could tell that something was not right with Rachel, but since she was not that familiar with Rachel, she did not dare to say anything to her. Caleb shot Rachel another helpless glance as she stormed off, then entered the room with Luna and Joshua. Inside, Theo was tidying and straightening Roanne’s clothes while a doctor was checking all of Roanne’s vital signs. When he heard the footsteps behind him, Theo thought it was Rachel who had returned and proceeded to declare without even turning around, “Rachel, I always thought that you’d be far more mature and level-headed in a situation like this, seeing as you’re older than me.
“I never thought that the only thing on your mind as you watched a woman die before your eyes would be jealousy toward her. “I don’t think this is working out, so—” “So you want to dump her?” Caleb interjected coldly before Theo could even finish his sentence. He furrowed his brows and scowled at Theo. “Do you even know how happy she was last night as soon as she knew she’d be coming to see you? “She thought you’d be as happy to see her as she was to see you, but what happened? How dare you even say these things to her?” Not only was Theo not ashamed of being scolded like this, but he grew even more outraged.” So what if I say these things to her?
“She’s a doctor, so she, out of anyone, would be able to understand a dying person’s last wishes. It was all my fault that Roanne ended up like this! Is it wrong of me to fulfill her dying wish of hugging her and giving her one last kiss? “If Rachel’s love toward her is so shallow and narrow-minded, then we might as well not be together at all!” Caleb sucked in a deep breath. He knew fully well that Rachel was not an ordinary woman.
He had known her for many years, and the reason Rachel had yet to settle down despite being almost 30 was not that she did not have any suitors, but because she had incredibly high standards and had never fallen for any of them.
