"Okay. Thank you."

Rachel put the business card in her bag and took her car keys from the receptionist. She was walking to her car when she saw a red sports car enter the shop's gate and approach her. She froze in shock. A screeching sound reverberated the shop, and the vehicle suddenly stopped just about ten centimeters away from her.

Even the receptionist was startled. She hurriedly came to Rachel and asked, "Miss, are you okay?"

Rachel shook her head. Although she looked calm on the outside, her heart was beating abnormally fast. The door to the driver seat opened, and Eden, Marcus' nominal fiancee, got out of the car.

The receptionist seemed to know Eden because she bent over to Rachel and whispered, "Miss, I'm so sorry. Miss Chen is actually a very kind person. I don't know what's wrong with her today. She seems to be in a bad mood."

"It's alright,"

Rachel responded faintly and continued walking to her car. She heard the receptionist behind her ask, "Miss Chen, how may I help you today?"

"I need my car to be checked. The engine is a little noisy when I start it."

"Our shop is already closed today, and all the mechanics have already left. I'm afraid we need to wait until tomorrow for your car to be checked."

"Call them back immediately!"

Eden's voice was unusually sharp. Although Rachel didn't know her personally, she could feel that she was in a bad mood.

For a woman like her, who had just announced her wedding to the p

s about to follow her mother to the living room again and see who their unexpected visitor was, but her body suddenly twitched. This time, Jack's worried voice kept ringing in her ears. "Rachel, please wake up now."

She kept telling him that she was already awake, but he didn't seem to hear her. He still kept on waking her up.

Gradually, she felt tired and soon lost consciousness.

After a long time, Rachel finally woke up. She opened her heavy eyes and saw a familiar place again. This time, she knew that she was in the hospital.

Jack was sitting beside her. When he saw that she was awake, his eyes suddenly lit up. He grabbed her hand and kissed it again and again. "Rachel, you're finally awake!"

"I'm fine." She wanted to raise her other hand to touch him, but she felt weak all over.

Feeling powerless, she asked, "Jack, how long have I slept?"

"One day and one night." His voice was husky, and there was a trace of starlight in his dark eyes. He touched the messy hair near her ear and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Rachel shook her head. Although she felt sore all over her body now, she didn't complain. As much as possible, she didn't want Jack to worry about her anymore. She tried to smile at him and said, "I'm fine."

Jack held her hand tightly. She could feel that he was trembling slightly. "I'm sorry, Rachel. We shouldn't have gone to the winter swimming competition. You've met an accident because of me. It was all my fault."
