Chapter 315 Rachel Was Scalded

At noon, Rachel arrived at the hospital's canteen and ordered a set meal for Lucas. She texted him of her location. Not long after, he hurried over, looking incredibly disheveled and exhausted.

Seeing that he drank up all the iced coffee in his cup in one go, Rachel asked, "What's going on?"

Lucas slowly raised his head, displaying the bags under his eyes. "It's a long story."

She paused, waiting for him to continue.

"My father didn't agree with my relationship with Iris. In order to make sure that I don't have time to be with her, he transferred me to the emergency department." A bitter smile threaded across his lips. It was as if his father was asking him to make a choice—his lover or his parents, and he didn't want that.

Rachel moved her lips, but she couldn't say a word. Instead, she placed her own coffee in front of him, implying that he could drink from it.

It was difficult to fight against one's own family when it came to a relationship.

Without any hesitation, he took a sip. Her coffee was black and bitter, but it wasn't as bitter as the chuckle that slipped past his lips. "If you have the time, talk to my father," he said pleadingly. "He always seems to listen to you."

At this point, he couldn't think of any other option.

"Okay."

Although she agreed, Rachel had no idea how to bring it up. How was she going t

With a smile on her face, Rachel nodded. "Fine, but I'm not going out with you anymore. I fear that it might be acid the next time I get drenched instead of boiled water."

"Never again!" Celia agreed. She leaned against Rachel's shoulder. "Why are all men so evil?"

As soon as she finished her words, a familiar voice sounded from behind. "Rachel?"

She turned around to see Marcus standing among the crowd. "Why are you here?"

"An employee accidentally broke her leg during working hours, so I came here to have a look." Marcus didn't expect to see her here.

His gaze immediately fell onto her arm. "What happened?"

"I got scalded by accident." Rachel didn't really care much about her injuries.

Celia was so enamored by the man in front of her that she forgot what to say. 'The man's so handsome!' she thought as she stared into his dark warm eyes.

She whispered, "Rachel, is this your friend?"

"Have you forgotten?"

"Forgotten what?" Celia furrowed her eyebrows.

Marcus' lips twitched as he held out his hand. "I'm Marcus Ji. My car hit your brother by accident that year."

On the viaduct, Jack stepped on the gas and rushed into the hospital at the fastest speed.

After taking care of her wounds, Rachel walked out of the consulting room to see Jack. "Why did you come here?"
