Chapter: 1249

Subconsciously, Roger was going to say that he would accompany her upstairs, but on a second thought, he felt he might appear too eager, especially now that Rachel had gotten a little closer to him.

He swallowed his words.

“Okay.” Then he gave a tight smile.

On the second floor

Rachel was going to Joey's bedroom when she heard the sound of water flowing from the bathroom not far away.

She stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at the bathroom.

She didn't see Victor in the living room downstairs just now, and the light in the bathroom was still on. It had been half an hour since Victor went upstairs to take a shower and change his clothes, and he still wasn't out yet.

Rachel frowned as she listened attentively to the distant sound of water flowing.

Was anything the matter with Victor?

Victor was already running a fever. Did he pass out in the bathroom?

Bearing this in mind, Rachel listened again to the distant sound in the bathroom, but found that there was no other sound save the sound of water flowing. This made her wonder even more if something had happened to Victor.

Her lips pursed into a straight line as she hesitated to go over and knock on the door.

So many conflicting thoughts ran in her head as she stood there. One voice urged her to leave as she had nothing to do with anything concerning Victor. Another voice urged that there would be lot of problems if Victor really passed out.

She stood still for a moment as the conflicting thoughts ran in her head. She shut her eyes in frustration.

Bang!

A loud thud came from the bathroom.

Rachel quickly opened her eyes and headed for the door without hesitation. She quickly tried to twist the doorknob, but it was locked from inside, so she couldn't open it.

"Victor?" Rachel knocked on the door and called out.

There was no answer.

"Are you in there, Victor? Answer me!" Rachel frowned and rapped heavily on the door twice more.

"Victor?"

Still no response. The bathroom remained silent except for the sound of water running.

Downstairs, Lila and Roger heard the noise and rushed upstairs.

“What happened, Rachel?"

Rachel looked agitated as she said, "Victor... Something seems to have happened to him.
