Chapter 2266
The familiar voice had Rachel lift her head, only to realize Theo was blocking their way with his arms spread out.
He looked at Rachel coldly.
“Dr. Liddell, since you’ve said that you hate people who lie, then I’m sure you won’t lie either. Am I right?”
Rachel furrowed her brows and looked at Theo helplessly.
“Just say whatever you’re thinking of. There’s no need to twist and turn.”
Theo suddenly was speechless because of what Rachel said. He had imagined what reaction Rachel would have if he asked her, but he never expected her to be so direct.
He took a deep breath and squinted, asking, “I just want to ask you… You said you were thrilled to be engaged with Caleb. Is that true?”
This question had been like a curse that lingered in his mind after he eavesdropped on Rachel and Caleb talking about their engagement. He wanted to know what he and Caleb meant to Rachel respectively.
‘Could she be so thrilled that she made mistakes in her work just because she got engaged with Caleb?’
Rachel was caught off guard by Theo’s question. She lifted her head and looked into Theo’s eyes with her clear eyes. She detected a vague hopeful glint, underlined by sadness and worry, and to this, she could not help but sneer inwardly.
‘He was so determined to reject me and chose to marry a dead body. What’s all this, asking me this question now?’ .
