Chapter 2094
Caleb was surprised that Rachel could have been so calm in all of this.
Even Theo was a little stunned by this. He was silent for a short while before finally saying in a hoarse voice.
“There’s no need for that. I’ll find her a burial place myself, and I’ll pay you back for the funeral service out of my
pocket too.”
Then, he let out a sigh as he glanced at Rachel. “I hadn’t wanted you to pay me back at all for the portrait I painted
of you; I had done that of my own accord.
“Please, keep it as a gift from me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No need,” Rachel interrupted him curtly. “I never accept gifts from strangers. You should know that whenever I
receive gifts from people I don’t know, I’d either throw them away or pay them back for their kindness. “However,
because the paintings are all of me, I don’t intend on throwing them away, so I want to pay you back for your
effort.” She yawned and continued impassively, “Please don’t reject my offer anymore, Mr. Allen. Otherwise, it’ll put
me in a very difficult position.” Then, she picked up the plastic bag of bloodstained clothes on the floor next to her
and asked, “These must be Ms. Jacobs’ belongings, right?” She glanced at the nurse. “Let’s go.” The nurse nodded,
then wheeled the bed out of the room behind Rachel.
In a split second, the only two people left in the room were Caleb and Theo. “I guess there’s no need for me to help
you anymore,” Caleb said, yawning, with a sneer on his lips. “Dr. Liddell and I have known each other for a very
long time now, so I’m speaking from experience when I say that as soon as she locks you out of her heart, you
won’t be able to get in anymore. “If this is your decision, Theo, then I admire your bravery.”
With that, he turned and left.
Theo remained motionless, clenching his fists as he watched Rachel and the nurse walk down the hallway.
Rachel had called him…a stranger. Not only that, but she had even referred to Roanne as his girlfriend. A bitter
smile crept across Theo’s face. Maybe it was right of him to give Roanne a status. After all, the only thing she had
wanted in her short life was to be with him.
“I can’t believe him!” Luna snapped, her arms crossed in front of her chest as soon as she got
into the car.
Initially, she had tried to understand Theo’s point of view. After all, anyone would be grieving if they watched
someone die right in front of their eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, it was one thing to pity Roanne for her demise, but another thing entirely to make this into a huge drama.
Not only had he broken up with Dr. Liddell, but he even blamed Joshua for Roanne’s death.
It was as though everyone in this world had something to do with her death.
From the many years of knowing him, Luna had always thought Theo was a mature and level – headed man, but
why did he seem to have been put under a spell suddenly?
“Maybe he’s guilty of her death,” said Joshua as he was typing on his phone. “Maybe he’ll calm down after he’s had
some time to sit with this.” Luna sighed. “I certainly hope so, but I can’t understand this at all. When Roanne was
still alive, Theo hadn’t liked her back at all, nor had he ever seemed to care about her. He had been pursuing Dr.
Liddell all this while, but why did he suddenly…”
