Chapter 50
“I remember that they were here.” The voice behind her was clear and powerful. “Am I correct, Rachel?”
As she slowly returned to her senses, Rachel spun around to look at Hans.
“Long time no see.” The man before her was a head taller than her. In the eight years that passed since she last saw him, his bright and handsome visage was more mature than in her memory, but his smile was as still as brilliant as ever.
In astonishment, she gaped and signed. How… Why are you here?
As his entire family emigrated eight years ago, she thought she would never see him again.
In her twenty-nine years of living, he was one of those rare folks who brought warmth to her life. Like a sun, he had brightened her entire youth. When she was lonely and helpless, he stood firm and unmoving by her side.
Now that they were in the cafe next to the library, where the rich smell of coffee wafted, Rachel studied the man in front of her for a long time, feeling like she was in a dream.
“I know I’m handsome, Rachel, but I’m going to blush if you keep looking at me like that” Hans teased by batting his eyelids at her.
She couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him. I see that your narcissism has never gone away, she retorted.
“Well, I’ll treat that as a compliment,” he chuckled before he looked out the window. “Things have changed a lot here, but you work in a good environment and it puts me at ease.”
When did you return? she asked.
“A while ago, but I was busy with the procedures surrounding my work transfer. If I knew your grandmother was in the hospital, I would have looked for you sooner to help you out.”
Work transfer?
A dumbfounded Rachel stared at Hans. You’re coming back for work?
“Of course. Did you think I was back on vacation?”
How about your parents… Midway through her signing, Rachel stopped as she suddenly realized that
