Chapter: 782
‘It's so sour!' he exclaimed inwardly.
The overpowering taste made him tremble, and his teeth kind of hurt.
He immediately drank some water to dissipate the sour taste from his tongue. It suddenly occurred to him that Rachel looked weird earlier while she was looking at him and eating her orange. Then, he realized why she told him to eat it slowly.
Rachel had no intention of giving him a hard time, nor did she say that it would take some time before she went to the hospital with him.
But she did have one condition; Ivan had to eat the entire orange.
"My God.. this orange isn't just a little sour,' he remarked inwardly.
Ivan turned his gaze towards Andy and noticed that the latter didn't know that the orange would be so sour, either. Noticing that Ivan was looking at him, Andy scratched his nose to hide his embarrassment.
"Why are you looking at me? Miss Bennet told you that she'll come with you after you finish your orange. Worry not, good sir. I have no intention of stopping her. Don't waste it. The fruit's vitamins are good for you. Anyway, I'll go see if Miss Bennet is finished changing."
Ivan was rendered speechless. ‘God damn it!'
About half an hour later, Rachel and Ivan finally left the Bennet family's house and went into his car.
The moment they got in the car, it began to drizzle.
Rachel turned her head towards the window. The driblets of rain running down the window blurred the view outside.
Meanwhile, Ivan glanced at her through the rearview mirror with a grim expression. Then, he told the chauffeur to drive to the hospital.
Ding.
The elevator arrived on the eighth floor, where all of VIP wards were.
Ivan stepped out of the elevator, followed by Rachel, and headed for
Victor's room. Just as they were about to open the door, they heard someone shouting from inside the room.
“Fuck off!"
ALL of a sudden, the door to Victor's room opened. A distraught nurse ran out in a hurry and accidentally bumped into Ivan and
Rachel.
Rachel stumbled to the floor, tweaking her ankle on her way down.
Horrified by what she had done, the nurse immediately got on her knees and started apologizing, “I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to bump into you. Please, forgive me!"
With a look of concern, Ivan got on one knee and grabbed Rachel's hand before asking, “Are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Rachel replied while rubbing her ankle to ease the pain.
Once she started feeling a little better, she stood up and addressed the frantic nurse crying like a little girl.
