'Rachel is...'
A few days ago, she was in despair to see Theo throwing a tantrum at the Civil Affairs Bureau just to obtain a legal marriage license.
It had only been a couple of days since that day, yet she was already making mistakes in her work just because she was thrilled to be engaged with Caleb.
Back then, Theo knew there was a very professional doctor who respected her work a lot by the name of Rachel Liddell. Not once had she ever made a mistake in her work, too.
After he met her, he often accompanied her and was there to witness her successfully completing many surgeries that many did not dare attempt. Even when she suffered from great pressure, she never faltered.
That changed right after she was engaged to Caleb.
Did that mean Caleb was very important to her? She did not seem to be as excited when she promised to be Theo's girlfriend.
It hurt. It felt as though hundreds and thousands of ants were crawling on Theo's heart.
He took a deep breath and strode toward the kitchen.
Rachel saw the way he walked to the kitchen with a glass of water at hand and not looking anywhere else. She smiled bitterly and thought, 'Caleb is right. Does he truly think I was angry and made a commotion just to attract his attention?'
She thus placed her head on Caleb's
shoulder and said, "Caleb was right; I admit I was too irritated. No one had ever questioned me, so I think that Caleb could be right. I was too happy to be engaged with him and had made a mistake in my work. I'll go back and reexamine Bonnie once more and try to discover the basis of Ms. Lawson's diagnosis."
Luna could not help but furrow her brows, and she then looked in the direction where Theo was at.
He was pouring himself a glass of water in the kitchen, but Luna could tell there was water in the glass before he supposedly ' refilled' it. It was enough for him to drink for the whole afternoon, too. 'He picked this time to go to the kitchen to get some water, but it's not to refill his glass. This man...'
She sighed :d*>VNT= gazed at Rachel, who, at this moment, was leaning into Caleb's
arms with a pretty smile. She acted all lovey-dovey with Caleb as though she was truly a woman in love.
Luna would have believed they were in love had she not known Caleb was into women. At this, her heart could not help and felt sorrowful for Rachel and Theo. ' What if Rachel marries Caleb a month from now after all? What is Theo going to do? Is he going to live as Roanne's husband for the rest of his life?'
Amid Luna's worry, someone knocked on the door. This time, it was Sean, Luna's non -biological brother. He looked like he just woke up with his hair tousled.
"The news is everywhere; Jim is marrying Bonnie today." Sean's eyes reddened as he stared at Luna. "Is it true?"
