Chapter 960 No Trace Of Attachment


    Rae smiled but had mixed feeling about that. The two people who were once closest to each other


    were now going their separate ways, yet they had to work under the same roof. This environment was


    extremely testing for both of them. She needed to face Marcel calmly and with the teasing of everyone


    in the department.


    Rae didn’t know how Marcel was feeling, but she guessed that he didn’t care. Marcel probably didn''t


    know that she already knew what he hade to her for. Rae didn''t want to bring it up and felt that


    there was no way to exin and clear up the misunderstanding.


    Rae smiled at Marcel and said, "Thank you for your concern. My mother''s condition is now stable, and


    she just needs some more time to recover. I may have to take leave in the future, so I hope you can


    grant it then. If you have nothing else, can I go now?"


    Rae''s attitude was also polite and detached as if she wasn’t affected by the breakup in the slightest.


    Marcel did not speak.


    Rae looked into his eyes. Marcel met Rae''s gaze, nodded slightly, and then said indifferently, "Yes.


    When the timees, you can just say so!"


    "Thank you!" After saying that, Rae walked towards the door. Just when she reached the door, Rae


    turned her head slightly and saw Marcel looking at her.


    Rae paused, hesitated for a moment, finally opened her mouth, and said, "Marcel, I have a little


    personal business. I''ll take you a minute!"


    Marcel nodded. "You can say it directly!"


    Rae just stood in the doorway, turned back slightly, and spoke softly, "I want to ask, in the few days we


    were together in the past, did you ever have a glimmer, even for a moment, of love for me? "


    Hearing this, Marcel froze for a moment, then he narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Rae with


    sharp eyes. His lips curled up slightly and he snorted, as if he was being sarcastic with her.


    Rae smiled to herself, "Okay. I get it. Never! But for me, it was an extremely good time and I cherish it.


    Thank you for the memories you gave me. I hope we''ll still be good colleagues and you''ll still be my


    respected boss! Bye!"


    After saying that, Rae turned around and walked out without a trace of attachment. As she walked out


    of the doorway, she shook off her head and shook off the attachment deep inside her.


    Marcel hung his head slightly, remembered Rae''s words just now, and was a bit suspicious. Why would


    she say that? Did Rae find out something? But even if she found out, it was fine. Marcel was not afraid


    that Rae would find out what he hade here for. Originally, he approached her with a purpose.


    Marcel just felt that, for a moment, he didn''t seem straightforward enough.


    But,pared to Rae''s shamelessness, he seemed to be much more open and honest, so he was


    pretty much the same as Rae. No one could me anyone.


    The words she asked him were ridiculous!


    Has he ever loved?


    Of course never!


    He just wanted to strangle Rae when he thought that Adam was still sitting in a wheelchair, and living a


    chaotic life every day.


    Adam was Marcel''s only cousin, and closer to him than his own brother. His aunt also had only one


    son. Now he was disabled and mentally depressed. And it was all thanks to Rae!


    She was living a happy life here and his cousin was at home living a miserable life!


    How could he possibly love Rae?


    Yes, he only hated her. He hated Rae!


    Marcel pursed his lips and told himself this over and over again.


    However, he did not know why he actually did not have the passion to continue working but was also


    irritable. He went to the window and lit a cigarette and began to smoke slowly.


    Rae was at peace when she returned to the office.


    Whether she was Natalie or the fake Rae, as long as she did things with a clear conscience, she could


    find peace inside. Now she did not harm Leonard, nor did she harm Mrs. Baxter! Her heart was still at


    peace.


    She suddenly received a phone call at noon. The news came from the hospital that Mrs. Baxter was in


    bad shape and seemed to have a blood transfusion infection. Rae''s heart thumped wildly. At that


    moment, her mind went nk, and she remembered the nurse''s words that only blood transfusions


    between rtives could bring about an infection.


    So, if she was not Mrs. Baxter''s daughter, how could she have be infected?


    Rae''s heart was strongly stimted.


    Could it be that herst DNA test with Mrs. Baxter was wrong?


    Which part of this was wrong?


    Did someone change the results?


    Easton''s face came to Rae''s mind all of a sudden. It was Easton who had helped her get the test


    results that day.

    Rae''s mind was in turmoil, and she didn''t have time to think about it in detail.


    Now, she only felt that her heart was full, and there was a lot of stuff that was breaking out like crazy.


    For a moment, she was a bit overwhelmed. She patted her face, then stood up, and headed for the


    door. She took two steps and suddenly remembered that she didn''t have her bag with her, so she came


    back to get it.


    She hurriedly walked out and bumped into someone!


    Rae covered her nose, looked up, and met Marcel''s deep eyes. The way he had his head down made


    her dazzled. It seemed he was frowning too, and couldn''t help but sneer at her coldly, "What? You still


    want to throw yourself at me after we broke up?"


    Rae''s body stiffened and she had mixed feelings. For a moment, Rae did not say anything.


    The feelings in Marcel''s eyes wereplicated, and there seemed to be a hint of anger.


    Rae couldn’t care. She slightly took a step back and spoke seriously, "Captain Hopkins, I need to take


    a leave of absence. Something happened to my mother at the hospital, and I need to go there now!"


    Marcel seemed a little surprised.


    Rae then added, "Sorry, I was in such a hurry that I bumped into you. Sorry!"


    She was so detached and polite, making Marcel even angrier. His brow furrowed slightly and he


    nodded, but said, "I''ll drive you there!"


    Rae was slightly surprised and shook her head to decline, "No need, thank you for your kindness. But


    it''s not convenient. Sorry!"


    After saying that, Rae went straight out, leaving Marcel, who had been rejected, in the same ce to


    look at Rae''s back in a slight daze.


    Rae'' didn’t look well. When she took the elevator down, she met Easton. When she saw Rae hurrying


    out, Easton immediately asked, "Rae, what''s wrong with you? Are you okay? How is your mother?"


    Rae lifted her head. There was a hint of suspicion in her eyes as she faced Easton. She didn''t answer,


    but simply said to Easton, "Easton, didn''t you go on a case?"


    "I''m not on a case. Captain Hopkins didn''t arrange it!" Seeing that Rae didn''t answer, Easton couldn''t


    resist asking, "I heard about your mother. Rae, take care of yourself. Your mother should be out of


    danger now, right?"


    Why did he still ask that?


    Rae faced Easton and remembered what happened that day. The report that Sophie brought to her


    was given to her by Easton! Could it be that Easton and Kane knew each other and that Easton was


    Kane''s spy in her department? She no longer dared to think about it. It was as if there were spies


    everywhere around her. There were spies from Reuben, from Marcel, and from Kane, and she was in


    dire straits. Now Rae didn''t know what to do if Mrs. Baxter had contracted the infection because of her


    blood transfusion.


    Her hands and feet were cold just thinking about it. Could Mrs. Baxter be her mother?


    If so, Rae was afraid to think about it again!


    She looked down and suddenly remembered that she hadn''t had her DNA tested with Leonard!


    The more fearful Rae became, the closer she seemed to get to the answer she wanted. Was she


    rted to Mrs. Baxter by blood or not? If not, why was there a blood transfusion infection? The more


    Rae thought about it, the more confused and anxious she became. It was like something wasing


    out and she felt like she was losing control.


    Rae sat in her car. The closer she got to the hospital, the more her heart pounded. When she was


    about to arrive at the hospital, her heart pounded even more furiously. One after another, and it was so


    strong.


    She had mixed feelings. The closer she got, the more scared and timid she became. But the timider


    she was, the more she wanted to get closer. Rae had a lot on her mind, and she couldn''t keep calm.


    If Mrs. Baxter was her mother!


    Rae thought of this possibility, but did not dare to devote much more thought to it!


    Because if she thought about it, she would be disappointed over and over again, and finally desperate.


    She was even more afraid to think about it.


    Rae had never met her mother, and the word “Mother” was so strange.


    But in the Baxter family, the word “Mother” was so warm, and Mrs. Baxter gave her just the kind of


    warmth that Rae had never had before.


    She was so gentle. For five years, Rae had been cold to Mrs. Baxter and Leonard, but deep down, she


    was envious of thete, real Rae. Because she had the most sincere feelings from her parents, but she


    didn''t cherish them.


    And because of her status, she had to suppress her feelings. But she had to admit that these five years


    were the happiest and warmest five years she had ever spent.


    It was a fatherly love and affection that she could not get from Kane.


    There was no me, only understanding, support, and tolerance.


    The Baxter family was so attached that she couldn''t wait to be the Baxter family''s child, not Kane''s!


    Perhaps, everything was delusional, but she couldn’t help but want to think and long for.


    Rae was hesitating, worried, and even heartbroken during the distance from the car to the hospital


    room. She couldn''t believe how she would be tormented if Mrs. Baxter died of the infection caused by


    the blood transfusion. Just the thought of that oue made Rae''s heart clench with fear.


    Rae finally made her way to Mrs. Baxter''s ward and saw Leonard in the room. As she entered, Leonard


    turned around and caught sight of Rae. All of a sudden, his eyes shed with a touch of sorrow, and


    seemingly remorse.


    Rae knew he was regretting letting her have a blood transfusion.


    How could Rae not be remorseful?


    Probably seeing Rae''s pale face, Leonard immediately greeted her. Faced with Rae''s pale face, he


    spoke with concern andfort, "Rae, it''s not your fault. Don''t me yourself. Your mother will be fine.


    We have to believe in her."


    Up to this moment, Leonard was stillforting her, not ming, and not taking it out on her. He had a


    fatherly love for his daughter like a great mountain, and that was something Rae could never get from


    Kane.
