The living room fell quiet upon Joshua's words.
Rachel lifted her head unconsciously with a hint of disbelief in her eyes.
'What are you trying to imply, Mr.Lynch?"
She lifted her brows as she added, "Are you underestimating me?"
Joshua looked at Rachel as he curled up his lips.
"I have more faith with my mother-in-law, that's all.Dr.Liddell, I admit that you're a very accomplished
doctor in your field, and I, on the other hand, have no medical knowledge.
"However, I believe that my mother-in-law didn't have a lapse of judgment in diagnosing Bonnie."
Joshua meant that Rachel was wrong since he was convinced that Rosalyn could not be wrong.
However, Rachel was not someone who was willing to just accept and carry on when someone who
had no medical knowledge like Joshua criticized her.
None had ever dared to say she made a mistake ever since she studied to become a doctor, and
Joshua was the first ever.
Her ego, thus, did not allow anyone to criticize her.She sneered and snatched the document from
Joshua.
"If Mr.Lynch doesn't believe me, care to point out what mistake did I make? If you can't, I hope you'll
apologize to me now.I may just be a run-on-the-mill doctor with no influence and power like you do, but
I refuse to let anyone question my knowledge and ability in the medicinal area."
Joshua squinted, his eyes seemingly gleaming cunningly.
"But there is no reason for my mother-in- law to say that her future daughter-in-law is about to die, is
there?" He sighed.
"Dr.Liddell, there's no need to get so worked up.I'm just telling you my query."
Rachel sighed coldly before turning away, crossing her arms at her chest.Caleb quickly comforted her
by stroking her back.
"Calm down, calm down.Mr.Lynch is just curious.He didn't mean to be rude.You..."
He subconsciously looked in the direction of Caleb's room and whispered to Rachel's ear, "If you got
worked up and talked loudly, the man will think that you purposely wanted to attract his attention."
Rachel rolled her eyes when Caleb mentioned Theo.
She lowered her voice retorted, "How childish can he be?"
"It's the same with every man who's in love."
Caleb chuckled and continued to whisper to Rachel's ear and rubbed her head affectionately, "Alright,
alright.Didn't we agree that you're going to forget that heartless man? I'll be by your side to remind you
not t o do anything that makes him think he has any chances with you, just as we've discussed."
Only then did Rachel's face eased a little.She pursed her lips and looked at Caleb helplessly.
"Fine, I will stay calm."
Just as Caleb finally calmed Rachel, he curled up his lip and was about to get on his feet.
Suddenly, he saw Theo open his door, and he swiftly pulled Rachel into his arms and played with the
loose hair on her sideburns with a smile on his face.
"Mr.Lynch, you've hurt Rach a little here.Maybe you're right, though, or perhaps Rach is too excited to
be engaged with me these few days and failed to see the problem.
"I'll let her do another examination when there's a chance."
Theo overheard the conversation and was stunned.
' Caleb is calling her 'Rach' now? He even says she's overjoyed because she's engaged to him, and
that's why she made a mistake in her work'’ Loneliness and jealousy crept into Theo's heart.
