Chapter: 1012

To look at Victor?

Ivan would rather die than look at Victor.

It was the end of autumn, yet Ivan was breaking out in cold sweat because of the matter between Victor and Rachel. He swallowed hard as he looked at Victor from the corner of his eye and asked, "Miss

Bennet, how about we send you back?"

"No, thanks. Joey and I went out with the driver."

"But..." Ivan sensed Victor's cold stare shift away from him as soon as he said that. However, with Rachel's refusal, the feeling reappeared not long after it had faded.

For a fleeting moment, something flashed across Joey's mind as he stood next to Rachel.

"Mommy, I saw the driver downstairs just now."

"Really?"

"I thought you came to the hospital to see Uncle Andy and assumed we would be home very late. And the driver told me that his child was waiting for him at school, so..." Joey drawled. He raised his hand to nudge the tip of his nose but stopped halfway. Instead, he brought his hand to touch the back of his head to rid himself of the embarrassment that was hitting him and look natural.

"So, I let him go first."

Rachel did not know how to respond to that.

“I'm sorry, Mommy," Joey apologized as he innocently fluttered his eyes in an attempt to be exonerated.

Face to face with the pitiful and innocent Look smeared across Joey's face, Rachel did not have the heart to blame or even reprimand him.

After all, he was a child who was clueless about some things.

Besides, it was hard to admit but she was nowhere near Andy's ward at that time, so even if Joey intended to tell her that he let the driver go on without them, he would still not be able to find her.

And if she only knew that the driver's child was waiting for him at school, she might have asked the driver to pick up his child first.

That was not something she should be strict about.

“In that case, let me send you and Joey back—"

“We can hail a taxi," Rachel interrupted Ivan. Without sparing Victor a glance, she took out her phone to call for a taxi through a car- hailing app.

Rachel made it obvious how she was shunning Ivan by cutting him off mid-sentence, and so the latter could not say anything more.

As soon as Rachel finished her words, she took Joey by the hand and was about to leave. But as she stared at her phone screen after two minutes, she did not expect that not a single cab was available at the moment to pick up their request.

ALL of a sudden, a notification prompted from the car-hailing app, but it was not what she was hoping for.

“Dear customer, at present, there are a few cars that you can take, and the estimated waiting time is 45-90 minutes."

At least nearly an hour?
