Chapter 2701

Theo waited at the airport entrance in his thin clothing for almost half an hour.

Just as he thought he was about to freeze to death, a car pulled to a stop in front of him. Thomas
stepped out of the car, glanced at this man who was only wearing a thin trench coat in this weather,
and could not stop himself from snickering. “You‘re a world–famous artist, for heaven‘s sake. How
could you have been so stupid?”

Theo glanced at him, frowning.

He remembered this man; he was the celebrity rumored to be dating a servant who worked for Luna.
Not only that, but it was later exposed that he was, in fact, Joshua‘s cousin.

Theo‘s expression fell at this realization.

The fact that Thomas had come meant that Joshua was probably here too, but he did not even call
Joshua for help.

This meant that Luna was the one who had sent them.

The reason Luna had asked them for help was that…she did not manage to change Rachel‘s mind
about refusing to see him. Since the only reason he had contacted Luna was to seek her help in
bringing Rachel along to the airport, Luna was not obligated to come pick him up herself at all.

This was why she had chosen to relay this task to Joshua and Thomas instead. A twinge of
disappointment crept into Theo‘s heart at this. He was right…

He should have known that Rachel would not forgive him so easily. Even after realizing his mistake,
Rachel was unwilling to change her decision.



She had always been an arrogant and dignified woman.

Not only that, but she was already someone else‘s fiancee, too.

“Hey, you speak English?” Thomas felt a little uneasy at the way Theo was staring at him. He strode
over to Theo‘s side and patted his shoulder. “Or have you got a brain freeze?”

He took off his parka and draped it over Theo‘s skinny frame. “Come, let‘s get you into the car!

Theo finally snapped out of his stupor when he felt the warmth of Thomas‘ coat on him. He pulled the
parka tighter and followed Thomas to the car. “Thank you, thank you so much.”

Thomas took his suitcase from him and shot him a rather quizzical look. Then, he placed the suitcase
in the trunk and opened the door so that Theo could get into the car. As he expected, Joshua was
sitting in the backseat, talking on the phone. The look on his face was solemn, it was clear that he was
in a meeting. “Alright. If there‘s nothing else, I have to go now. Don‘t worry; I‘ll let you know if anything
changes.”

Then, he hung up and turned to glance at Theo. “Long time no see.”

The inside of the car was so toasty in contrast to the freezing cold outside that Theo‘s face flushed red
from the warmth. “Long time no see, indeed.”

Thomas got into the front passenger seat, glanced at Theo through the rearview mirror, and said,
frowning, “Should we bring your friend to the hospital?” “No, no, I‘m fine,” Theo quickly replied. “You
sure?” Thomas shot him a dubious look, then sighed. “It‘s cold here in Saigen City at this time of year,
so why did you have to wait outside the airport? I remember that they used to sell cheap coats and
parkas in the duty–free stores; why didn‘t you go buy one?”

Theo was a little frustrated by this comment.



However, he refrained from showing his emotions and instead replied, smiling, “I guess it slipped my
mind.”

Joshua curled his lips into a smile and glanced at him. “You forgot or didn‘t want to miss out on
someone coming?“
