Chapter 1184: Chapter 1184 It Was Horrible

Sierra teased, “I don’t believe that such a beautiful girl like you doesn’t have a boyfriend. I’ll introduce one to you! We have a few handsome seniors in our department. Which one of them is your type?”

Rachel waved her hand and said, “I really don’t need a boyfriend. I just want to study hard. I won’t consider having a relationship for the time being!”

“That’s really a pity! The seniors of this school are bound to be very excellent people in the future!”

The corner of Rachel’s mouth twitched as she thought to herself, “Eddison is also excellent, but will he belong to me in the future? I don’t know!”

“Rachel?” Sierra called out to her again.

“Why are you always so absent-minded? You seem to be quite close to Eddison. Do you two know each other from before?”

Rachel was a soft-hearted person and she rarely picked an argument with someone.  At the moment, she wasn’t sure what Eddison’s attitude towards Sierra was, so she dared not say anything.

However, she was not a fool. Of course, Rachel could tell that Sierra was testing her.

She said ambiguously, “We’re alright.”

Sierra did not seem to want to know her answer. Without waiting for Rachel to finish, she laughed.

“You guys were so lucky to know each other from before. Speaking of fate, I believe Eddison and I are destined to be together. Did you know? That year, our school was holding a welcoming party for the freshmen. I signed up for it on a whim and there he was, in his freshman year. I was assigned to bring him around. In fact, he was not the person I was originally assigned to. However, the person who was with me earlier had to deal with some stuff half way through the tour. Therefore, I went back alone, and I was a little frustrated at the time, as I always felt that I could not do anything well! It’s normal to feel a little indignant, right?”

“Unexpectedly, fate has brought me to his side! When I returned, I saw a clumsy junior student. At that time, he was still very young. There was no one with him and he was carrying two big boxes alone. Therefore, I went to help him! I showed him to the dorms, the canteen and I also told him a lot of other things. Later, I learned that the senior who was responsible for showing him around that day was unable to make it. Isn’t that a coincidence?”

The corner of Rachel’s mouth twitched once more.

Sierra suddenly smiled again as she continued, “Although he’s much more mature and steady now, I was the only one who has seen his childish side! To be honest, I quite like his former self too! Ah, by the way, I’ll show you some photos of him and I!”

Sierra went to look for her bag. Truth be told, Rachel wanted to say that doing so was unnecessary because she did not want to look at the pictures at all.

However, she could not open her mouth as in fact, she really wanted to see the so-called childish side of Eddison.

At that moment, she felt a little regretful in her heart. Why hadn’t she gotten acquainted with Eddison earlier? Why wasn’t the person who had been with him in the past her?

“I found it!”

Sierra handed the photo to Rachel with a smile.

It was a small photo of half the size of a palm, with two faces on it. Sierra stood still, and Eddison stood next to her, with his head slightly tilted toward Sierra.

His body language showed it all. It indicated that at that time Eddison had complete trust in Sierra!

“After we took the photo, he begged me to give him a photo of it and said that he wanted to keep it. I think he must have thrown it away now! Fortunately, I still have it.”

Rachel felt a little jealous and felt that she needed to take her leave.

She made an excuse, “I remember that I still have things to do. I have to go now! Sierra, I wish you a speedy recovery!”

“You’re leaving? If you’re busy, then I won’t keep you here any longer! I was going to tell you that you should stay and have some cake with me! The cake from that shop is really good, and Eddison has always bought cakes from there for me.”

“We’ll do that next time!” After Rachel finished her words, she ran away.

Sierra looked at Rachel’s back for a while before she put away the photo in her hand.

She was not sure if Rachel had feelings for Eddison, but she could not allow anyone to compete with her at the moment, including the woman who had called Eddison the previous night.

…

Eddison remembered that Rachel might not like to eat cheese, therefore he bought a strawberry cake for her.

When he returned to the ward, he found that Rachel was gone. Dania, on the other hand, came back and she was chatting with Sierra.

Eddison looked around the ward, but before he could ask about Rachel’s whereabouts, Sierra explained to Eddison. “Rachel really is too shy. I introduced a few campus hunks to her, and she left hastily in embarrassment!”

Eddison frowned and asked, “Campus hunks?”

“Yes! You know, the seniors from the art club! They’re all talented and handsome. Don’t girls like those types of guys? I’ve already set up a date for Rachel. They will meet in a few days! She will definitely fall in love with him!”

Eddison felt a little stuffy. Did Rachel even like that type of man?

Dania walked over and took over the cake from Eddison’s hand.

“Is this the cheesecake that Sierra likes? Why does it taste so weird? How can we eat it?”

“Mom…” Sierra said in a sweet voice.

“Eddison bought you a strawberry cake, didn’t he? You can eat that strawberry cake!”

“Eh? That’s…” Eddison’s mouth widened. Eventually, he shook his head and said, “You two can enjoy the cakes! I’ll head back first!”

Sierra naturally hoped that Eddison would not leave. However, after what he said just then, she could not keep him by her side anymore. Thus, she waved her hand happily as she bid him goodbye!

“Be careful on the road! Don’t eat anything cold at night. You didn’t rest well last night, so you must go to bed early tonight! I am fine here, so don’t worry about me!”

Dania heard Sierra’s reminders.

She couldn’t help saying, “This girl nags even more than me!”

Sierra smiled and said, “Mom, he’s my junior in school. I’ve been taking care of him since the semester started, so of course I treat him differently!”

“I’ll be fine, Sierra!” Eddison left with a lot of things on his mind after he finished his words.

…

When he arrived home, it was already dark.

Eddison turned on the light, and there was no one in the living room.

He went upstairs. When he passed by Rachel’s room, he twisted the doorknob but it was locked. However, it indicated that she was inside.

He knocked gently on the door. “Rachel!” he called out.

There was no sound from inside, and he knocked again. He reminded her, “Didn’t I say that I’ll be back for dinner tonight?”

Rachel, who was inside, finally said, “There’s food in the fridge. Please heat it up yourself. I’m tired. I’m going to sleep!”

All of a sudden, she was acting so cold towards him.

Eddison frowned, “Are you angry?”

“No!” Rachel shouted reflexively.

“You are! Can you tell me why? I know that I promised you to come back earlier tonight, but I really had something to do at the last minute. I didn’t mean to leave you hanging!”

Rachel felt even angrier. Did he think that she was angry because he had come back home late? If he had simply done that, why would she be angry?

What she was angry about was his attitude towards Sierra. Their ambiguous relationship was almost driving her crazy!

Rachel had always thought that she was a kind person, but because of such a matter, she began to think that she was not so kind anymore.

That kind of feeling was too horrible! She did not like it at all.
