“Even though I had initially wanted to use her as a spy that I could plant by Jim’s side to keep an eye on Charlotte,
there’s no denying that I had played a role in her death,
“Therefore, I’ll do my best to find Charlotte and make her pay for this.”
Then, he turned and walked away, hand-in-hand with Luna.
Luna bit her lip and glanced at Theo somewhat reluctantly. She had always thought of Theo as a calm, level-headed

Seeing that both Joshua and Luna were leaving, Caleb stood at the door in a stupor, unsure of what to do.
He fell silent, then shot Theo a meaningful glance. “Are you sure you want to give up on someone like Rachel
because of this woman?”
Theo replied curtly without even lifting his head, “If Rachel is so petty as to get jealous over something like this, I
don’t think this relationship will even be worth having.” “Alright,” a clear woman’s voice rang out from behind Caleb.
Both Theo and Caleb stiffened in shock, then turned around unanimously.
Rachel was standing at the door to the room, smiling, not a single tear or hint of sadness on her face.
She stood there in silence, and her crystal clear, determined gaze fell on Theo’s face. “I hear you, and I agree.”
Then, she strode into the room, glanced at the nurse who was about to wheel Roanne’s body away and whispered
something in her ear.
The nurse nodded and proceeded to wheel Roanne out of the room.
Theo furrowed his brows and instinctively reached out to grab hold of the bed railing, then shot the nurse a

“It’s certainly not cheap to hire a good funeral service, isn’t it? Do you think it’s worth it?” Rachel glanced
impassively at him and replied in a calm, emotionless voice, “First of all, Mr. Allen and I have never even been

for my actions.
“Finally…” She glanced meaningfully at Theo. “Mr. Allen has painted me a beautiful portrait for which I have yet to
