My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 378

Rachel asked, "Where are those people now?"

"They are now in jail. Don't worry. The police will deal with them properly."

As soon as they came back home, Rachel immediately lay on the bed. She felt like she had just closed her eyes when the alarm clock rang.

She fumbled the alarm clock when she heard footsteps approaching. Jack turned off the alarm clock faster than her. His voice sounded warm when he said, "Have some more sleep. The driver will pick you up and take you to the hospital later."

"Okay," she answered sleepily.

She was too sleepy that as soon as she finished her words, she fell asleep again. But when the doorbell rang nonstop, she woke up in a trance again. Thinking that the driver had already come, she quickly changed her clothes. But she didn't expect that the person standing outside their door was Celia, whose eyes were red and swollen. Lea was also there standing behind her, pursing her lips.

Her heart skipped a beat. She pulled her into the house and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen to Dylan?" "No..."

Celia paused as tears welled up her eyes. She held Rachel tightly and sobbed. "I just received a message from Marcus. He is breaking up with me. I called him to ask why, but he turned his phone off."

A deep frown surfaced on Rachel's face. She was thinking about how to comfort Celia. The latter wiped her tears away and said fiercely, "I won't break up with him muddled. I must find out the reason first."

"That's good."

Lea patted her shoulder as a sign of encouragement. "That's my friend! You must show them your unyielding strength."

"But..." Rachel was still frowning. Obviously, she didn't agree with them. She always had the feeling that this matter wasn't simple. But since they still didn't know the reason behind all these, she couldn't just conclude casually.

Disappointment was written all over Lea's face as she looked at Rachel. She poked her eyebrows and said to Celia, "Don't be like Rachel. You have to make things clear with Marcus."

Then with Celia on her back, she stuck out her tongue at Rachel and said, "Coax this silly girl."

Rachel found out that it was Henry who told Lea about what happened to Dylan. As soon as Lea knew, she immediately sent Rita to the nursery school and rushed to the hospital.

But when she arrived at the ward, she saw Celia squatting alone on the chair outside the door. She was sobbing and almost out of breath. She had to ask her many times before she finally told her the reason why.

Lea tried to comfort Celia but it didn't work so she decided to take her to Rachel.

She was glad that Celia showed her

determination to fight for Marcus. But she didn't expect that her toughness was just temporary. Right now, Celia was standing in the study with a book in her hand. She touched it over and over again and said, "I saw this book in Marcus' house. He said that the four of them bought the same book together before."

She had said the same words for more than ten times as if trying to recall some memories she had with Marcus.

Seeing her softened again, Lea couldn't stand it anymore. She stepped forward and pulled the book away from her. "You should not be sad. Didn't you just say that you want to know the reason? You haven't clarified things with him yet. Relax and stay calm."

Celia sniffed, holding back her tears. She seemed afraid to cry in front of Lea again. She said, "What for? He must have made up his mind to break up with me. I really feel bad." She wasn't aware that the way she looked right now made her friends feel upset.

Rachel also couldn't bear it any longer. She bit her lower lip, patted Celia's shoulder, and

suggested, "Why don't we go shopping now?

Let's forget your worries and have fun."

She thought that maybe if Celia went somewhere else and wouldn't see anything related to Marcus, she wouldn't be lovelorn anymore.

Lea agreed with her, so they drove Celia to the nearest shopping mall.

Since it was a weekday, only a few people were wandering around and looking at every shop

uninterestingly.

When they arrived at the mall, Lea became

energetic at once. She put her arm around Celia's shoulder and asked, "What do you want to buy? I'll pay for you. Remember, for women like us, shopping is the best solution to any problem."

"Thank you, Lea. I appreciate your kindness." Celia pouted. Her eyes were still gloomy when she added, "But I don't want to buy anything. I already have enough clothes to wear."

The corners of Lea's mouth twitched slightly. She opened her mouth to continue coaxing her, but Rachel interrupted, "Let's go around first. If you see something you like, then that's the time you decide if you want to buy it or not." Eden just came out of the fitting room wearing a red cheongsam. She turned around and looked at Marcus expectantly. "Do I look good in this dress?"

However, Marcus turned a deaf ear and continued playing with his phone.

"It looks good," Connie answered hurriedly. "But do you want to try another one?" She then pointed at another cheongsam on the clothes rack and asked the saleswoman to bring it to them.

Eden was stunned for a while. Eventually, she took the cheongsam and said with a hint of disappointment in her voice, "Okay."

As soon as she entered the fitting room again, Connie immediately turned and faced Marcus. With a darkened expression, she said, "Marcus, didn't you hear Eden asking you? Since you are with us right now, can you put your phone away for a moment and pay attention to Eden?"
