Chapter 477: Reiner - Who to Trust
Reiner was always thinking of me and doing his best to protect me. How could I be so ignorant and stupid?!
Reiner, when will you come back? I want to see you so badly right now...
Rachael was still going off about something that I couldn’t quite understand but I knew that it wasn’t something good. By that time, I no longer heard a word that left her lips. My mind was already made up as to what I wanted to believe, and I couldn’t control how I was feeling.
“Thank you so much, Rachael! Thank you...really. Thank you so so much!” I cried out as I got up from my seat and ran to her side.
Before she could snap out of her shock, I had thrown my arms around her body and was hugging her tightly. Tears stung my eyes and when I closed them, the warm wetness of my tears traced lines down my cheeks. I hugged her tighter to me while her arms started to push me away from her body. That only made me try to hold on tighter to her.
“Thank you...thank you so much, Rachael. Thank you for telling me all this...” I kept on saying as a mix of happiness and relief flooded every cell of my body.
When Reiner mentioned that he had something that he would tell me someday soon, I had dreamt up many nightmarish scenarios. I also thought that it would be something that may put our relationship under risk or something that may force us to part ways. Never did I think that it would be a reason that would bring him to me and keep us together.
Finally, I understood what was going on and it was all because of her. Despite her not-so-well intentions of trying to stir up trouble between Reiner and me, what she told me finally made me understand Reiner so much more. I felt so relieved that everything was starting to make sense to me now.
“What are you doing?! Let go of me. Stop this now!” Rachael screamed quite loudly.
Her hand wrenched mine away from her body. She was so strong, and she managed to overpower me so easily. After successfully pulling me away from her body, she looked at me with utter shock on her face and I couldn’t blame her for her reaction. It was quite obvious that the reaction that I had wasn’t what she had in mind when she turned up here to break the news to me.
“Thank you, Rachael. I’m so happy right now...” I said as I continued to sob before I raised my hand to wipe the tears of joy from my eyes.
“Have you gone out of your mind?!” she yelled right into my face.
