Chapter 255 His Embrace

No one knew why Rachel, who had been helping to set up the tent, had suddenly run to the collapsed building and got trapped under it.

Her heart sank when she heard what Jack said. She asked, "There's a girl named Holley in our team. How is she?"

"Holley?" Jack asked. "I don't know her."

Rachel asked again, "Am I the only one who got injured?"

"Yes," Jack replied.

"How about the others? Is everyone okay?"

"They are all fine."

Rachel felt heavy in her heart. Something came into her mind but she couldn't believe it.

How could Holley do this to her?

No matter how much she thought about it, she still couldn't figure out the answer. There were no grudges between them, so she couldn't think of any reason for Holley to do such a horrible thing.

Did she want to take her life?

Jack also didn't know who took Rachel there, so he asked, "Why did you go there alone?"

Rachel didn't know what to say. She had no evidence, so she couldn't just accuse someone. Perhaps there was only a misunderstanding.

After all, Jack didn't know how many people there were. Maybe he had gotten the wrong information.

She tried to comfort herself by thinking that she would figure out everything when she got better.

After pondering for a while, she replied casually,

ut with the doctor because he wanted to give the couple a private moment.

So when the nurse also went out, she silently followed.

She closed the door so the couple would have privacy when they talked.

But before she could totally close the door, she caught sight of Jack leaning over and giving Rachel's forehead a soft kiss.

His eyes were full of sorrow and tenderness at the same time. Tracy had never seen his son this way before. She couldn't help feeling sad for him.

She was worried about Rachel too. Somehow, she felt relieved that her blindness was just temporary.

Rachel wasn't used to the total darkness, so she was quiet for a moment. Her forehead suddenly felt warm, and her face turned a little hot.

She slightly tilted her head to hide the shyness she was feeling, then she asked, "Has everyone gone out?"

"They all left." Jack gently held her chin and looked at her. Then he said, "But I'm here."

Rachel couldn't say anything as his words brought warmth to her heart.

He added firmly, "Don't be afraid. I'll always stay by your side.

I will be your eyes until your vision is back." From her chin, his hand moved down to hold her hand gently. "Don't worry about anything. No matter what happens, I'm here for you. Just tell everything you need."
