Chapter 2700


    Luna was amused by Theo‘s chattering voice. She sighed and nced once again at the bathroom,


    then replied in a whisper, “I saw Rachel declining your call just now.”


    She rubbed her brow in exasperation. “I honestly don‘t think she‘ll be willing toe with me to the


    airport to pick you up.”


    Theo let out a sigh when he heard this. “That‘s precisely why I called you; I was hoping you could


    convince her toe see me…”


    A hint of disappointment crept into Theo‘s voice. “After all, I had flown here just to see her, and I want


    to let her know how much I care about her–much more than that fiance of hers does, anyway.”


    Luna did not know what to answer to this.


    She was close to Caleb. Thus, she knew that Rachel and Caleb‘s engagement was just a hoax the two


    of them were nothing more than friends.


    Caleb needed this engagement to conceal the truth about his sexual orientation, whereas Rachel just


    wanted an excuse to stop Theo from chasing her so she could focus on her career.


    Not only that, but the reason Rachel had even ‘gotten together‘ with Caleb in the first ce was due to


    her disappointment in Theo.


    Whenever she recalled the crazy things Theo had done for Roanne, Luna could not help thinking that if


    she were in Rachel‘s shoes, she would not choose to forgive him so easily, either.


    However, since both Theo and Rachel were her friends, she was in no ce toment on their


    rtionship.


    “Alright. I‘ll ask Rachel if she‘s willing toe with me to pick you up. If she‘s unwilling, I‘ll have to send


    Joshua and Thomas to do so.”


    Theo was silent for a long time before finally sighing. He had no choice but to relent. “Alright. I guess


    that‘s fine.”


    Then, he could not help adding, “Luna, do you think that…I‘m not as good as Caleb, and I don‘t even


    stand a chance of winning back Rachel‘s heart?”


    This question was so abrupt that Luna did not know how to answer it.


    At this moment, the door behind her creaked open, and Rachel emerged from the bathroom.


    Luna quickly hung up. “Was that Theo?” Rachel asked, raising her brow. Luna did not think it was


    necessary to hide the truth from Rachel, so she nodded and said, “He told me that since you refused to


    take his calls, he had no choice but to contact me instead.” “What does he want?”


    “He…” Luna pursed her lips and quickly ryed their conversation to Rachel. “He wants us to go pick


    him up and bring some winter clothes for him too.”


    Rachel furrowed her brow in exasperation. “That idiot.”


    How could he not know that Saigen City and Merchant City were in different seasons? How could he


    have flown over without even thinking of bringing winter clothes?


    Even though Rachel was snippy, Luna could not help noticing the worry and apprehension on her face.


    She asked testily, “Why don‘t we go pick him up together?”


    “No point. Might as well let him freeze.” Rachel shifted into a morefortable position on the sofa and


    added, “He‘s not a child, and it‘s not like he flew over without any money. He can always just hail a cabExclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.


    and buy some winter clothing, so why do we need to go to all that trouble?”


    Then, she fell silent for a moment before finally ncing at Luna. “Isn‘t Joshua in Saigen City too? Why


    don‘t…you ask Joshua to send someone to pick him up? “He‘s so dumb that I‘m worried he might get


    lost here.”
