Chapter 848
“It’s my fault.” Rachel pushed Aileen’s wheelchair towards the ward. “I haven’t come to see you these few days” Aileen smiled. “I’m afraid I’m not a three-year-old child anymore. I don’t need someone to accompany me.” After the two walked into the ward, Aileen revealed her plans. “I’m going to pack up and leave in the next two days.”
When Rachel heard that, she frowned slightly. “Why are you in such a hurry?
Aileen had yet to recover fully, so it was inconvenient for her to move around. Could it be that she had something urgent to do, so she had to leave at a time like this?
“It’s not good to stay here all the time. Aileen pursed her lips. Her eyes were lowered, and the expression in her eyes could not be seen clearly. “Besides, I know my own body”
As Aileen spoke, she reached out and touched her leg
Eventually, she would have to sit in this wheelchair for the rest of her life.
However, she still felt indignant when she thought about it.
Her inner pride did not allow her to give up so easily, but the reality was like a cruel hand that slowly broke her straight back, forcing her to lower her head and live in a humble and sorry state.
Rachel stared at Aileen without blinking. After pondering for a long time, Rachel chuckled. “Since when did Nine give up so easily?”
Aileen could not help but be stunned when she heard that.
It had been a long time since Aileen had heard someone call her that.
When Aileen heard this title, she vaguely thought that she had returned to the land where she had once shed blood.
Aileen took a deep breath and suppressed the surging emotions within her. She pursed her lips and said with heart-wrenching loneliness, “Rae-Rae, I can’t go back anymore.”
Aileen would never be able to return to the land where she had once shed blood.
When she first joined the Red Flame Army, she only had the mentality of pursuing excitement. Later on, she was influenced by the people in the Red Flame Army and gradually fell in love with that group of cute and innocent people. She fell in love with them because they did not seek remuneration or fear death. They simply gathered together because of their fervent passion to form a powerful force that could not be violated at all.
Later on, she fell in love with the land tinder her feet.
No one knew the pain she had felt when she was forced to withdraw, nor did anyone know that she had dreamed countless times of running wildly in the green forest all these years.
She was Nine who refused to admit defeat. The more she fought, the braver she became. How could she admit defeat so easily?
However, it was a problem for her even to stand now.
Do you believe me?” Rachel stared at Aileen intently. Her pure black and white pupils flickered with a determined light and an inexplicable power of conviction.
Aileen looked at Rachel and suddenly did not know what to say. She only nodded hard.
Rachel held Aileen’s hand. “Tll think of a way.”
Even so, Aileen still left.
On the day Aileen left, Rachel came specially to the airport to see her off.
Aileen gave Rachel a big hug “Tll see you the next time I come back.”
Rachel nodded.
Rachel did not ask Alleen why she had to leave, but Rachel knew there had to be some reason why Aileen insisted on leaving. “Be careful on the road. Remember to contact me if anything happens.” Rachel reached out and patted Aileen’s back gently. Aileen nodded. After letting go of Rachel, she boarded the plane with the help of a caregiver.
It was not until the plane took off and gradually faded out of sight that Rachel turned around and lett.
First, Vulture and the others had left, and now. Aileen had also left. Rachel’s life seemed to have returned to its initial peace, It seemed like a line had been drawn between her and everything in the past. However, there was an indescribable feeling in her heart. She felt lost, as though she had lost her sense of belonging.
Rachel took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions that were welling up inside her as she walked toward the parking lot.
After Rachel got into the car, she received a call from Mary.
At the last minute, they received a request. The other party requested Rachel to help design a wedding dress.
Rachel thought that since she would pass by the studio when she returned to the city, she might as well meet the client. “Then I’ll go over now.”
Unexpectedly, Mary said, “The other party refused to come to our shop and asked us to go to her house.”
“Door-to-door service?” Rachel frowned imperceptibly.
Although Rachel was a designer, she was not someone who would grovel and serve others. She also had her own temper.
She had already given the other party due respect by accepting her request.
“The other party contacted us through email. She’s not in Seaxas. Mary knew Rachel’s personality. Mary was worried that Rachel would reject the other party arrogantly, so Mary hurriedly explained, “Recently, there’s a show in Tomsville. It’s by my favorite new designer, so I plan to visit the client while we attend the show. Isn’t that the best of both worlds?”
Upon hearing this, Rachel looked resigned. “Since you’ve already arranged everything, why are you still asking my opinion?”
“Hey, you’re our studio’s signature designer and financial backer. We should still go through the necessary procedures,” Mary said.
“You make the arrangements then.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up. Rachel continued driving.
A car passed by Rachel’s car.
Jimmy, who was inside the car, recognized Rachel’s car at a glance. He quickly wound down the window to greet Rachel.
However, Rachel, who was as fast as the wind, did not even look at Jimmy as she whizzed past him.
Jimmy pouted and muttered in a low voice, “Tsk, what a temper.”
“It’s your fault for having a loose tongue.” Landon, who was beside Jimmy, glanced at Jimmy and raised his eyebrows. slightly. “I really don’t know what’s wrong with you. Why did you have to bring up that matter for no reason?”
The fact that David decided to marry Rachel seemed to be set in stone.
The Jones family would not dare to have any objections. Even if someone dared to object, David would definitely use means to force them to agree. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
At the mention of this, Jimmy was also furious. “I was just worried that David would be blinded by love and do something that he would regret
Initially, Jimmy had good intentions, but who would have thought that he would be in a difficult position now?
Not only had Jimmy offended Rachel, but David had also ignored Jimmy for a day.
No wonder Rachel and David would end up together. They sang the same tunel
“Let’s catch up with Rachel and take a look.” Landon raised his chin at Jimmy.
After Jimmy heard that, he stepped on the accelerator.
After chasing for a while, they realized that Rachel’s car was running chaotically and randomly on the road like a headless fly.
“Where do you think she’s going?” Jimmy was confused as he chased Rachel’s car.
If Rachel wanted to go to Johnson Corporation, she was driving in the wrong direction. If she wanted to find David, this was not the correct roule at all.
The sharp-minded Landon vaguely sensed that something was amiss. He narrowed his eyes behind his glasses. “Continue chasing and see if you can stop Rachel’s car.”
