A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 960

Rae smiled but had mixed feeling about that. The two people who were once closest to each other were now going their separate ways, yet they had to work under the same roof. This environment was extremely testing for both of them. She needed to face Marcel calmly and with the teasing of everyone in the department.

Rae didn’t know how Marcel was feeling, but she guessed that he didn’t care. Marcel probably didn't know that she already knew what he had come to her for. Rae didn't want to bring it up and felt that there was no way to explain and clear up the misunderstanding.

Rae smiled at Marcel and said, "Thank you for your concern. My mother's condition is now stable, and she just needs some more time to recover. I may have to take leave in the future, so I hope you can grant it then. If you have nothing else, can I go now?"

Rae's attitude was also polite and detached as if she wasn’t affected by the breakup in the slightest.

Marcel did not speak.

Rae looked into his eyes. Marcel met Rae's gaze, nodded slightly, and then said indifferently, "Yes. When the time comes, you can just say so!"

"Thank you!" After saying that, Rae walked towards the door. Just when she reached the door, Rae turned her head slightly and saw Marcel looking at her.

Rae paused, hesitated for a moment, finally opened her mouth, and said, "Marcel, I have a little personal business. I'll take you a minute!"

Marcel nodded. "You can say it directly!"

Rae just stood in the doorway, turned back slightly, and spoke softly, "I want to ask, in the few days we were together in the past, did you ever have a glimmer, even for a moment, of love for me? "

Hearing this, Marcel froze for a moment, then he narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Rae with sharp eyes. His lips curled up slightly and he snorted, as if he was being sarcastic with her.

Rae smiled to herself, "Okay. I get it. Never! But for me, it was an extremely good time and I cherish it. Thank you for the memories you gave me. I hope we'll still be good colleagues and you'll still be my respected boss! Bye!"

After saying that, Rae turned around and walked out without a trace of attachment. As she walked out of the doorway, she shook off her head and shook off the attachment deep inside her.

Marcel hung his head slightly, remembered Rae's words just now, and was a bit suspicious. Why would she say that? Did Rae find out something? But even if she found out, it was fine. Marcel was not afraid that Rae would find out what he had come here for. Originally, he approached her with a purpose.

Marcel just felt that, for a moment, he didn't seem straightforward enough.

But, compared to Rae's shamelessness, he seemed to be much more open and honest, so he was pretty much the same as Rae. No one could blame anyone.

The words she asked him were ridiculous!

Has he ever loved?

Of course never!

He just wanted to strangle Rae when he thought that Adam was still sitting in a wheelchair, and living a chaotic life every day.

Adam was Marcel's only cousin, and closer to him than his own brother. His aunt also had only one son. Now he was disabled and mentally depressed. And it was all thanks to Rae!

She was living a happy life here and his cousin was at home living a miserable life!

How could he possibly love Rae?

Yes, he only hated her. He hated Rae!

Marcel pursed his lips and told himself this over and over again.

However, he did not know why he actually did not have the passion to continue working but was also irritable. He went to the window and lit a cigarette and began to smoke slowly.

Rae was at peace when she returned to the office.

Whether she was Natalie or the fake Rae, as long as she did things with a clear conscience, she could find peace inside. Now she did not harm Leonard, nor did she harm Mrs. Baxter! Her heart was still at peace.

She suddenly received a phone call at noon. The news came from the hospital that Mrs. Baxter was in bad shape and seemed to have a blood transfusion infection. Rae's heart thumped wildly. At that moment, her mind went blank, and she remembered the nurse's words that only blood transfusions between relatives could bring about an infection.

So, if she was not Mrs. Baxter's daughter, how could she have become infected?

Rae's heart was strongly stimulated.

Could it be that her last DNA test with Mrs. Baxter was wrong?

Which part of this was wrong?

Did someone change the results?

Easton's face came to Rae's mind all of a sudden. It was Easton who had helped her get the test results that day.

Rae's mind was in turmoil, and she didn't have time to think about it in detail.

Now, she only felt that her heart was full, and there was a lot of stuff that was breaking out like crazy. For a moment, she was a bit overwhelmed. She patted her face, then stood up, and headed for the door. She took two steps and suddenly remembered that she didn't have her bag with her, so she came back to get it.

She had mixed feelings. The closer she got, the more scared and timid she became. But the timider she was, the more she wanted to get closer. Rae had a lot on her mind, and she couldn't keep calm.

If Mrs. Baxter was her mother!

Rae thought of this possibility, but did not dare to devote much more thought to it!

Because if she thought about it, she would be disappointed over and over again, and finally desperate. She was even more afraid to think about it.

Rae had never met her mother, and the word “Mother” was so strange.

But in the Baxter family, the word “Mother” was so warm, and Mrs. Baxter gave her just the kind of warmth that Rae had never had before.

She was so gentle. For five years, Rae had been cold to Mrs. Baxter and Leonard, but deep down, she was envious of the late, real Rae. Because she had the most sincere feelings from her parents, but she didn't cherish them.

And because of her status, she had to suppress her feelings. But she had to admit that these five years were the happiest and warmest five years she had ever spent.

It was a fatherly love and affection that she could not get from Kane.

There was no blame, only understanding, support, and tolerance.

The Baxter family was so attached that she couldn't wait to be the Baxter family's child, not Kane's!

Perhaps, everything was delusional, but she couldn’t help but want to think and long for.

Rae was hesitating, worried, and even heartbroken during the distance from the car to the hospital room. She couldn't believe how she would be tormented if Mrs. Baxter died of the infection caused by the blood transfusion. Just the thought of that outcome made Rae's heart clench with fear.

Rae finally made her way to Mrs. Baxter's ward and saw Leonard in the room. As she entered, Leonard turned around and caught sight of Rae. All of a sudden, his eyes flashed with a touch of sorrow, and seemingly remorse.

Rae knew he was regretting letting her have a blood transfusion.

How could Rae not be remorseful?

Probably seeing Rae's pale face, Leonard immediately greeted her. Faced with Rae's pale face, he spoke with concern and comfort, "Rae, it's not your fault. Don't blame yourself. Your mother will be fine. We have to believe in her."

Up to this moment, Leonard was still comforting her, not blaming, and not taking it out on her. He had a fatherly love for his daughter like a great mountain, and that was something Rae could never get from Kane.
