Chapter: 1006

Rachel looked at the number, lost in thought once more.

Beep!

All of a sudden, the phone rang. When Rachel came to her senses, she realized she had somehow pressed the dial key by mistake. The name

'Victor' was flickering on the screen, meaning that it was calling his phone.

Rachel wanted to hang up on reflex, but her finger just hovered above the red button for a long time. She didn't press.

The beeping lasted for nearly a minute. Looking at the screen that told her that no one answered, Rachel unconsciously bit her bottom lip. Perhaps she didn't even realize that she was frowning. The gnawing feeling in her gut was growing stronger

"Sorry, the mobile subscriber you dialed cannot be reached. Please try again later." The beeping stopped, and the female voice replaced it. Then the phone hung up, and the screen returned to the phonebook page.

For some reason, Rachel felt as if her heart was being squeezed in her chest. When the phone hung up, her heart didn't hurt anymore, but it was now a little numb, and even her fingers were slightly numb as they held the phone.

“The man who was sent over just now is quite handsome. Does he work in Sullivan Group? Or is his surname Sullivan? He is so badly injured. I don't know if he can survive." Suddenly, a loud sigh came from behind them.

The elevator tinkled to a halt on the fourth floor of the emergency facility. After a long and deliberate opening of the elevator doors, a long and slender corridor was revealed. The operation room was at the end of the corridor, with a closed door.

The sound of the elevator's doors opening jolted Rachel back to reality. Seeing the operation room's red light after exiting the elevator, it became clear to her where she was.

"Miss Bennet? Outside the operation room, the guy heard the clatter of the elevator. Then he turned around and saw Rachel there, which caught him off guard.

Rachel turned to face the guy as she heard him speak.

For some reason, Rachel's vision was blurry for a time before she could make out the man's face properly because of the bright red light on the operating room door.

"It's you, Ivan," Rachel said. As Ivan approached, she instinctively gripped her phone.

“Miss Bennet, What made you come here?" Ivan asked respectfully.

"I..." Words became trapped in Rachel's throat as she tried to speak.

What brought her here?

Rachel blinked and her soft lips opened, but she had no idea what to say.

She had no idea what she was doing here

The elevator doors had already opened by the time she regained consciousness. After arriving from the inpatient facility a few hundred meters away, she stood here and entered the emergency building. She was listening to two nurses talk about a patient who had been brought in from Gentlefolk shortly before that.

Sullivan Group, a guy with the surname Sullivan who had significant injuries...

After hearing this, Rachel could not help but think about Victor's face. His phone was unanswered when she tried to contact him again.

Then, here she was.

On the way here, she was still certain that the guy mentioned by the two nurses was not Victor, despite the fact that the man's surname was identical to Victor's.
