Alexa walked out of the room and found Rachael smiling at Romeo. She was actually being friendly with him. When did that happen?
Raymond saw her coming out and she instinctively moved her gaze to him. Once their eyes met, she found herself looking away. She was probably feeling awkward after the conversation with Jane.
'Thinking about it now, I can't deny the fact that Rachael is changing a lot with his appearance. It's like she is… happier than she ever was with me.' She pursed her lips. 'If she were to choose, would she choose him over me?' Rubbing her arms gently, she dispersed the chill she felt from that thought.
The dress she wore had short sleeves and thank goodness they were able to cover up her scars if not she didn't know what she'd do.
"Mummy." Rachael called and she looked up. Raymond was no longer looking at her but why did her gaze go to him first?
