Chapter 2268
Theo receded as though his body was out of strength after hearing what Rachel said.
While he did, Caleb quickly grabbed Rachel and walked past him before leaving
altogether.
All the time, Theo's eyes had been focused on Rachel, but she never once turned to
look at him...not even once.
His heart felt so crushed like it had been slammed by a heavy hammer.
Looking at how dreadful Theo was, Joshua and Luna looked at each other. Just when
they were about to walk over, a small figure dashed over before them.
It was Neil.
The boy reached out and grabbed Theo's hand. "Don't be sad, Uncle Theo. You still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthave me."
The young-sounding voice startled Theo, making him look down unconsciously. Neil, in return, looked at him with
clear doe eyes.
"Uncle Theo, Mommy had told me what happened between you and Aunt Rachel. I know you were wrong, but you
still have a chance to save your relationship before Aunt Rachel gets married. Don't give up so easily," he spoke, all
while he grabbed Theo's hand tightly. "All of us will help you, just like when you helped me when I lost my memory."
When Neil lost his memory, Theo believed wholeheartedly that Neil would get better. That was why he endured
being with Aura, endured all the whippings she gave him.
It had been more than a year since the incident, but every time Neil thought of it, his heart still ached. He felt sorry
for Theo—sorry that Theo had to endure the pain. At the same time, he respected his determination and
persistence.
A man like Theo should not be defeated easily. He was just lost at the moment.
"Uncle Theo, be as hell-bent and persistent as when we had to endure everything Aura hurled at us. I believe that
sooner or later, Aunt Rachel will come back to your side," added Neil.
Theo was silent for a moment after hearing what Neil said. After a while, he finally composed his emotions and
kneeled to give Neil a hug. "Alright...! won't give up easily."
After all, it was his fault. He should not have ignored Luna and Bonnie's advice and hard-headedly wanted to marry
Roanne. There were many other ways to help bring justice back for Roanne, F=_II7WT he chose the most idiotic
way.
He had only himself to blame as Rachel was disappointed with him. It was important to acknowledge one's mistake
and change it. He should not run away.
Looking at how Neil and Theo cuddled together, Luna felt touched by the sight. She unconsciously grabbed Joshua's
hand and smiled at him.
It had been a while since Neil was with them that she almost forgot the relationship between Neil and Theo. They
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshared a bond stronger than what Luna and Theo had. Despite the large age gap, Theo and Neil had endured even
life and death together.
Joshua pulled Luna into his arms and whispered in a volume that only Luna could hear,
"I think Neil just made a promise on our behalf."
Luna paused and recapped back what Neil told Theo.
"All of us will help you."
She looked at Neil helplessly, and coincidentally, Neil, too, was looking at her with his
watery eyes. It was as if he would cry if Luna disagreed.
However, the thing with helping Theo get Rachel back
Luna, in truth, was reluctant to help. She and Bonnie had tried talking Theo out of this
mistake many times, but he persisted willfully, causing him the consequences he was
facing at this moment.
She really did not feel like helping Theo anymore, but her three children were too fond
of Theo.
