Chapter: 1005
Wasn't that what she wanted anyway? That way she could take Joey away from Apliaria and go far away. Then she wouldn't need to worry all the time that Victor would find out about Joey's identity. And she wouldn't be afraid that the feelings between Joey and Victor growing deeper and deeper.
Andy finally realized that something wasn't right with Rachel. Just as he was about to ask what happened, Rachel suddenly stood up.
"I have to go now. Rest well."
Before Andy could say anything, Rachel had turned around and left the ward. Looking at Rachel's receding back, Andy was confused. What could have been on her mind? The phone on the bedside table buzzed.
He looked away from the door and picked up the phone.
It was a news alert. The very same one that Rachel had received on her phone.
As soon as Andy clicked on it, the whole news page was displayed on his screen. Gentlefolk caught fire and two gas explosions occurred in
Building A. Many people have been injured, and several apartments were seriously damaged. It is said that Victor Sullivan, the CEO of
Sullivan Group, is currently visiting those who were injured in the hospital. He said that Sullivan Group would set aside some money to compensate the owners of severely damaged apartments in Gentlefolk.
When Rachel walked out of the ward, her mind was occupied with what had happened. She walked forward subconsciously, thinking about the explosion in Gentlefolk that Andy and the news alert on her phone had informed her about.
Bang.
Rachel didn't notice her surroundings and accidentally touched the flowerpot on the nursing station with her hand. The flowerpot fell to the floor immediately and broke into pieces, which shocked the nurse who was on duty at the station. The nurse quickly walked out. She didn't care about the fragments on the floor but instead asked with concern.
“Miss, are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
Rachel came to her senses and her sight became clearer. She looked at the broken flowerpot and apologized, “I'm fine. I'm sorry. I didn't notice it there. How much is it? I'll pay you for it."
“It was a gift from a discharged patient. I don't know how much it is, but it shouldn't be too expensive. You don't have to pay for it.
The flowerpot was supposed to be placed inside, but I was so busy just now that I forgot it. So I can't really blame you for breaking it." The nurse smiled.
“But you don't look well though. Is something wrong?"
Rachel smiled, then she said softly, "I am fine. How about this?
Please give me your number. Then I'll go to the flower market tomorrow and see if there's the same flower. If there is, I'll buy it put it in a nice vase, and send it to you."
After all, she was the one who had broken the flowerpot. There was no need to let others take the consequence for her actions.
Seeing that Rachel was determined, the nurse didn't refuse anymore.
"Alright."
Rachel nodded, unlocked her phone with her thumb, and saved the nurse's number on her phone. As soon as Rachel did that, the nurse was called away by her colleague. She said goodbye to Rachel in a hurry.
Rachel was about to turn off the screen, but then she opened the phonebook by mistake.
She had just come back and had gotten a new number. So there were only a few people's phone numbers on her phone, and they all fit into one page of it. Looking down, the last line of the address book was Victor's number.
