Chapter 478:

“So, you haven’t told him about you and Brian yet?” Andres asked.

Rachel’s expression grew somber.

“No, I haven’t. Jeffrey is certain that we’re getting married. Given what happened in the past, I’m worried he would blame himself if he finds out about our breakup. I don’t want him to feel guilty. He might… he might do something to hurt himself.”

Her voice was tight with emotion by the time she finished explaining.

Taking a deep breath, she looked up at Andres, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

“I only have one brother. We’ve relied on each other since we were kids. We were hardly ever apart. More than family, Jeffrey is my best friend, my only companion through the most difficult years of my childhood. We tended to each other’s wounds and found comfort and warmth in our own little bubble. That’s why I can’t afford to take any risks. Even if it’s just a one-in-a-million chance that something could go wrong, I can’t take that risk.”
