Chapter: 1268

After all, the lunch would determine the success of the Bennet Group and the Tucker's collaboration.

Rachel was about to follow. As soon as she stepped out of the car, she noticed a wild cat leaping out from the side and pouncing on her.

Subconsciously, Rachel moved to the side, but she didn't notice the stone that was next to her. As she stepped on it, she lost her balance and stumbled backwards.

Her assistant, who had just finished talking with the staff in the restaurant, came out and saw that Rachel was about to fall. She shouted in distress, "Miss Bennet!"

Rachel tried to stand steadily, but it was too late.

She was standing by the roadside. If she fell, she would land on the road. Not far away, a speeding car was heading in her direction.

With the little distance between them, it wouldn't be able to stop in time.

The assistant's eyes widened in shock. She moved forward to grab

Rachel's arm, but she was too far away from her. There was no way she could have made it in time.

Rachel thought she couldn't escape it, so she just covered her head as much as possible. Maybe that way she would at least survive. Just then, her arm was grabbed and she was pulled back. The car brushed a few inches past her, causing the wind to blow across her face.

The blinding pain she had been expecting never came. Neither did the sound of her getting hit by the car.

Rachel felt as if heart wanted to jump into her throat. She tried to calm herself down and stop her body from trembling. But even as she stood there, her mind was still in shock. She had almost died.

"Miss Bennet, are you okay? Are you hurt?" The assistant trotted over.

"I'm fine." Rachel tried to control herself but the fright was just too much. After all, she had just seen the car zoom past her, with barely any distance between them. Her face was a little pale and even her voice came out a little hoarse.

Then she finally noticed the hand on her arm and the person standing beside her.

She was stunned for a while and turned to look at him. The man also noticed the look in Rachel's eyes and relaxed his grip on her arm.

“Thank you." Knowing that this man had just saved her life, Rachel thanked him sincerely and bowed slightly to him to show her gratitude.

“It's not a big deal. Anyone in my position would have done the same thing." The man wore sunglasses and half of his face was covered by them. Rachel could only see the other half. He smiled as he said those words

"It might not be a great deal for you, but you have saved my life.”

As Rachel spoke, she took out a business card from her bag and handed it to the man.

“If there is anything I can do to help you, just call me. I will try my best to do just that."

The man took the card from Rachel and looked at it. Then he read the name on the card, “Rachel Bennet."

"That's me." Rachel smiled.

"Miss Bennet, do you believe in fate?"

The man suddenly asked this question, which confused Rachel.
