Chapter: 885

Victor paused for a moment to reflect. He looked at Rachel with regret and said, "I thought I knew you so well that I was sure that you were just playing hard to get. I was confident that you would seek retribution at that time. But you returned to the Bennet family without hesitation. It seemed that you really wanted to leave me. To be honest, I had my doubts about you once before. There was a time that I suspected that you were not Rachel."

A knot suddenly formed in Rachel's gut. Her gaze wavered momentarily, unable to look at Victor's gloomy face.

However, Victor didn't notice the change of expression in Rachel's eyes. With a self-deprecating smile, he said, "But Rachel doesn't have a twin sister. It's also impossible for another person in this world to look exactly like her. If you are not Rachel, then where is the real Rachel? So my suspicions are not plausible.”

‘No, Victor. You failed to realize that you were closer to the truth than you expected,’ Rachel thought.

Victor's intuition was correct. She was not Rachel. She never was the

Rachel that Victor knew.

“From then on, I realized that I didn't know you fully well. But even so, at least I have seen sides of you that you've never shown to others," Victor remarked.

Rachel smiled timidly, but there was no happiness in her eyes.

Instead, traces of pent-up rage started to show.

She didn't know why she was so angry. Was she mad at Victor because he knew in his heart that she wouldn't sell the Sullivan Group and abandon Joey? Or was she simply frustrated that she couldn't be ruthless no matter how much she tried?

“Nothing you say can change my mind. I have already made my decision.

Victor, don't think too highly of yourself," Rachel said stubbornly.

"Is that so?" Victor looked deeply into Rachel's eyes as if he had seen through her innermost thoughts.

"But I still don't think you can."

Victor waited for a reply, but nothing came. Rachel gritted her teeth and stopped arguing. She reached out her hand to push Victor away.

As soon as she could find a doctor, she could finally leave.

It was so stupid of her to discuss such matters with Victor here.

"He likes you very much." Seeing that Rachel was determined to walk out of the room, Victor suddenly brought up the one person closest to her heart.

Rachel paused and looked up at Victor in confusion.

"I'm talking about Joey." Feeling the pain of his wound getting worse by the second, Victor knew that he couldn't keep a calm appearance much longer. He released his grip from the doorknob, turned around, and gingerly sat down on the edge of the bed, releasing a sigh of relief.

With Victor out of the way, the path to the exit was finally clear.

But Rachel didn't rush to open the door. Her mind was focused on the little boy.

"Joey is Odin's son," Victor said, looking at Rachel with sincerity in his eyes.

“Joey hasn't been living in the Sue Garden for very long. Lukas said he doesn't open up to anyone. The kid always kept his distance and never trusted easily.”

Rachel didn't understand what Victor was trying to say.
