Chapter 898:
“Every decision, every move you made, affected him profoundly. The crisis with the Vance Group—you must
know he could have stayed away, but he got involved because of you. The restaurant that you and Miss Vance
visited? That was built for you, specifically because you love fireworks. He knew you'd enjoy the view from the
high altitude, and almost every dish there is something you adore. The place was never meant for anyone else—
it was his gift to you.”
He hesitated, gathering his thoughts before continuing, his voice softer, “I don’t know if you've ever noticed the
timing of the annual fireworks shows. To most, it seems random. But if you pay attention to the calendar, you'll
see a pattern. And in Mr. White's desk drawer, there are boxes—small and large—filled with birthday gifts he'd
planned to give you over the years but never did. He's prepared them each year with such care, but he never
had the chance to give them to you.”
Ronald's gaze softened further, his voice steady but pleading. “He has made a mistake, and | won't deny that.
He's let you down, and he knows it. But can one mistake define him forever? In the years you've been apart, he’s

| believe, with all my heart, that you still care for him. That's why, on that night, | arranged the special fragrance
in the room.”
As Ronald's words settled in, Rachel’s mind slowly began to piece together the truth. It wasn’t the alcohol that
had sparked the events of that night; it was the incense Ronald had carefully placed in the room.
Once back at her apartment, Rachel wasted no time. She rushed to retrieve the calendars from the past few
years, her fingers trembling slightly as she flipped through the pages. She began marking the dates of the
fireworks shows, one by one.
As she marked the third date, a sudden realization struck her—her breath caught in her chest. She continued,
her heart racing as she checked the remaining dates. It was no coincidence. Each of those nights had been a
special occasion for her, like her birthday and their anniversary.
In the past, Rachel had brushed it off as a mere coincidence. Over the years, she had stopped celebrating her
birthday, no longer connecting the dazzling displays to her special day. She never once considered that there
might be more to it.
But now, as the pieces fell into place, she understood. Those so-called coincidences weren't random at all. They
were carefully planned, each one a quiet gesture of love, a subtle reminder that he had always been thinking of
her. True coincidences, she realized, were a rarity in life.
When Ronald finally laid everything bare, Rachel found herself unsure of how to feel about the truth. Did she still
harbor hatred toward Brian? Certainly not. Even the deepest resentment had been chipped away over tby
his quiet, consistent acts of kindness.

When all was said and done, Brian had truly helped her these last few years, more than she could have ever
hoped for. And yet, to say that there was no lingering resentment at all would be untrue. Sbitterness
remained, born from a past that could never be changed.
