Chapter 2699 Rachel did not expect Gwen to suddenly bow for her, so she froze momentarily in surprise before finally frowning in disapproval. “Gwen, you‘re Luna‘s friend, so you‘re a friend of mine, too. “Even though I‘ve never been an openly warm person, my heart isn‘t made of stone either, so you don‘t have to be so courteous with me.”
She sighed and added, “Let‘s agree to wait until the DNA report comes out tomorrow before we decide on a course of action, alright?”
Gwen nodded earnestly.
She lifted her head to glance at Rachel one last time before finally returning to her room.
After seeing Gwen close the door behind her, Luna finally sighed and gently patted Rachel‘s shoulder. “This is a surprise.”
She never thought that Rachel, who had always been a calm and somewhat stiff person, would talk to Gwen so gently in response to her gratitude.
Not only that... This was so foreign to Luna that she could not help thinking that this was not Rachel at all but a stranger who just so happened to look identical to her. Rachel had never acted this way, not even to Theo.
She had always been a strict and professional person. Rachel let out a sheepish laugh when she heard Luna‘s comment. She knew exactly what Luna was referring to.
She sighed and turned to stare at Gwen‘s closed door. “How can I bear to let her down?”
Luna nodded and could not help agreeing.
Rachel was right; no one could possibly bear to let Gwen down...except for Luke. Despite knowing how devastated Gwen would be after his death, he still chose to go ahead with his plan. Luna guessed that Luke had probably underestimated Gwen‘s love for him and thus did not think that she would be sad for too long after his death.
However, it seemed that...even Luke himself had underestimated Gwen‘s loyalty.
