Chapter 874:

“Dear Rachel, if you’re reading this, it means my condition has gotten worse. I might not be able to talk by then, so I wanted to write this instead. I once told you I was the one who found a kidney to save you, but that wasn’t true. The real person who saved you was Jeffrey. He’s the one who made the sacrifice. I also told you Lizzie lost her eyesight but later got it back. What I never mentioned was that Jeffrey was the one who made that happen. He gave up his corneas for her. That was our deal—he helped Lizzie see again, and I found a way to save you. He asked me to take care of you, and I agreed without a second thought. That’s why all these years, I’ve been so careful and attentive, always looking after you. Rachel, I should thank you and Jeffrey. I’m not as selfless as you think, nor as noble as you believe. My care for you wasn’t some grand gesture; it was simply part of an agreement, a responsibility, a promise I had to keep. Nothing more. So when I’m gone, don’t feel guilty. Don’t carry any burden because of me. I’m sorry I kept this from you for so long. I should have told you the truth sooner. The road ahead is long, but I want you to walk it with hope. No matter what happens, never stop believing in tomorrow.”

Then, without hesitation, she stepped behind Allan’s wheelchair and gripped the handles tightly.
