Chapter 425
After Rachel and the others arrived at Seaxas, they had a meal together that night and returned home.
Before separating, Naomi held Rachel’s hand and said in a choked voice, “Rae-Rae, thank you forwhat you have done all these years.”
She knew that all these years, the favor that she and Linda owed Rachel could not be repaid with just aword of thanks.
However, no matter how many words she had, the best way to express the gratitude in her heart was tothank Rachel.
“Mrs. Naomi, why are you saying this?” Rachel held Naomi’s wrinkled hand. Years of hard work hadmade Naomi’s joints thicker, and her fingers were calloused. Unknowingly, time had left an indeliblemark on Naomi’s body..
Rachel sighed softly. “If you hadn’t appeared in time back then, I might not have survived.”
Back then, when they found out about Linda’s encounter, they wanted to help Linda escape from thatdisgusting home.
However, Xavier, who had lost the bet, suddenly returned. When he saw the few of them, a vicious andevil thought arose in his heart.
In order to protect them, Linda surrendered to Xavier.
Finally, Rachel couldn’t take it anymore. She picked up the metal rod beside her and smashed it hardon Xavier’s head.
After that strike, Xavier lost consciousness and blood flowed out from the back of his head.
At that time, although Rachel was ruthless in fighting, she had never seen such a
scene.
She was not the only one who was panicking. Even Mary and Jessica were panicking.
Coincidentally, Naomi appeared at that moment.
Without any hesitation, she chased all of them out.
In the next twelve hours, Naomi took the initiative to walk into the police station and confess all thecrimes.
According to the police investigation, there were no traces at the scene other than Naomi’s fingerprints.
At that time, Rachel understood that Naomi was already prepared to die.
Whether it was out of guilt or sympathy, she asked Adrian for help and finally helped Naomi fight for thelightest punishment.
Back then, she had spent a lot of effort to cover up this case. Not a single word was leaked. Other thanthe necessary people involved in the case, no one else knew about it.
Now, because of Lily, Linda and Naomi had no choice but to face their sore spot.
Memory was the scariest thing in the world.
They could erase the traces of this case, but they could not erase everyone’s memories.
Originally, Rachel had brought Linda and Naomi to Seaxas to make it easier for them to live a good lifein the future. Now, their peaceful life was destined to be criticized.
“Leave the rest to me. From now on, you and Linda can stay in Seaxas and live well.”
When Naomi heard this, a hint of gentleness appeared in her eyes. She looked at the residentialbuildings that were brightly lit in the distance and said blandly, “We have to live well.”
“It’s getting late. You guys should rest early.”
“Be careful on the road.”
Sandalwood Hills.
Rachel took a hot shower and walked out of the bathroom.
She slowly dried her hair and looked up at David, who was leaning against the headboard.
David was wearing loose home clothes. The collar was slightly open, revealing his Adam’s apple andexquisite collarbone. He no longer had the coldness and abstinence from the day, and he looked sodashing and raffish.
After drying her hair, she walked to the bed and said seriously, “It’s getting late.”
In other words, she was going to sleep. It was time for him to leave.
David raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to pull her into his arms. He wrapped his armsaround her waist and turned over. Both of them sank into the soft bed. The moment the soft and fluffyblanket landed on her body, Rachel heard his low and magnetic voice. “Let’s sleep together.”
