Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy Chapter 2699

Rachel did not expect Gwen to suddenly bow for her, so she froze momentarily in surprise before finally
frowning in disapproval. “Gwen, you‘re Luna‘s friend, so you‘re a friend of mine, too. “Even though I‘ve
never been an openly warm person, my heart isn‘t made of stone either, so you don‘t have to be so
courteous with me.”

She sighed and added, “Let‘s agree to wait until the DNA report comes out tomorrow before we decide
on a course of action, alright?”

Gwen nodded earnestly.

She lifted her head to glance at Rachel one last time before finally returning to her room.

After seeing Gwen close the door behind her, Luna finally sighed and gently patted Rachel‘s shoulder.
“This is a surprise.”

She never thought that Rachel, who had always been a calm and somewhat stiff person, would talk to
Gwen so gently in response to her gratitude.

Not only that… This was so foreign to Luna that she could not help thinking that this was not Rachel at
all but a stranger who just so happened to look identical to her. Rachel had never acted this way, not
even to Theo.

She had always been a strict and professional person. Rachel let out a sheepish laugh when she heard
Luna‘s comment. She knew exactly what Luna was referring to.

She sighed and turned to stare at Gwen‘s closed door. “How can I bear to let her down?”

Luna nodded and could not help agreeing.



Rachel was right; no one could possibly bear to let Gwen down…except for Luke. Despite knowing how
devastated Gwen would be after his death, he still chose to go ahead with his plan. Luna guessed that
Luke had probably underestimated Gwen‘s love for him and thus did not think that she would be sad for
too long after his death.

However, it seemed that…even Luke himself had underestimated Gwen‘s loyalty.

Just as the two women were immersed in their thoughts, Rachel‘s phone suddenly rang.

Her brow furrowed as she lowered her head to glance at the screen.

It was Theo.

She let out an exasperated sigh and pressed decline. “Excuse me for a while. I need to go to the
bathroom.”

With that, she disappeared into the bathroom.

The moment Rachel closed the door behind her, Luna‘s phone began to ring. She glanced at the
screen.

It was Theo again. Luna curled her lips into a smirk and glanced at the closed door. When she heard
the sound of running water coming from inside the bathroom, she could not help shaking her head.

“Hi, Theo.” Luna went out on the balcony to pick up the call.

“Luna, I‘ve arrived in Saigen City,” Theo said as he stood at the entrance of Saigen City Airport,
shivering in the cold. “Why is it winter here in this horrible place? I didn‘t bring a single winter coat with
me, and now I‘m freezing! Can you and Rachel come to pick me up?” Luna chuckled when she heard
Theo‘s teeth chattering. “Didn‘t you check the weather forecast before coming?” Saigen City and



Merchant City were numerous time zones away from each other, so of course the weather would be
drastically different. Even though it was still autumn in Merchant City, Saigen City was already in the
throes of winter.

“I came here because of Rachel, so how can I be bothered even to check the weather?” Theo‘s voice
was trembling from the cold. “Come pick me up quickly!” Luna snickered. “You probably just want
Rachel and can‘t care less whether I go or not, right?”

She had noticed Rachel declining his call. Theo was silent for a moment before finally laughing
sheepishly. “You‘re right, as always, but

He glanced at his clothes. “But I‘m not lying about the cold. If you don‘t come soon, I‘m going to
become a block of ice.”
