Chapter 2700 Luna was amused by Theo‘s chattering voice. She sighed and glanced 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 to come 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 to
come 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.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe 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 place 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 place to comment on their relationship.
“Alright. I‘ll ask Rachel if she‘s willing to come 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 relayed 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 more comfortable 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 cab 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 glancing 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.”
