Chapter 797

Rachel felt that she was really useless.

But sometimes, people were like this.

They would only give in to the person they loved and soften their hearts time and time again.

Seeing Rachel’s pretty face gloomy. David chuckled helplessly. David bent down to hug Rachel againand slowly closed his eyes, greedily breathing in the faint fragrance on her body

The room fell silent, but they didn’t feel awkward because they didn’t speak

After some time, Rachel asked gloomily. How did you get hurt?*

Sensing Rachel’s suppressed anger. David did not dare to hide anything anymore. He answeredobediently. “Bullet wounds” Hearing this, Rachel frowned slightly.

No matter if it was Eddie or Billy, these people were very capable. Hence, David would not be easilyinjured, let alone bullet

wounds

Rachel took a deep breath and suppressed the waves in her heart. She asked calmly. “Where are youhurt? Is it serious?” David answered every question “My lungs and my heart”

When Rachel heard this answer, a wave of heartache appeared in Rachel’s eyes.

Rachel secretly gritted her molars, her jawline tense

That was the heart!

As long as there was a slight deviation, David would have died for certain.

It could be said that David had one foot in hell, but he chose to hide everything from Rachel.

Rachel did not dare to imagine that if David was not lucky

When the word “death” came into contact with Rachel’s mind. Rachel felt as if her heart had beensoaked in ice water. In an instant, Rachel stopped breathing, leaving only intense pain screaming wildlyin her body. Rachel’s entire body trembled uncontrollably

Rachel’s fingertips kept curling up. Her nails dug into her palms, and her throat was tense and dry.Have a good rest. I’ll leave first”

Before Rachel could finish her sentence, she turned around and left.

There were no hysterical questions, grievances, or fragile tears. Rachel was so sensible that it madeDavid’s heart ache Watching Rachel leave, David subconsciously chased after her

David’s intuition to

that he could not let Rachel leave just like that

However, when David pulled off the needle on the back of his hand and chased after Rachel, thepeople guarding the ward immediately panicked “Mr Jones!”

David had just woken up and the doctor had repeatedly reminded him to rest well. In the blink of aneye, David rushed out. David was really willing to die for Rachel.

Rachel walked very quickly. She did not want anyone to see her tears, including David.

Hence, a strange scene appeared in the quiet corridor of the hospital.

The woman quickly walked in front. The man held his chest and endured the pain as he tried his best tochase after her. Behind the man was a group of burly men in black who followed closely behind. Theywere like hens protecting a chick. All of them were trembling in fear, but they did not dare to rashly goforward.

As Rachel waited for the elevator, David finally caught up with her. David grabbed Rachel’s hand andpressed her against the wall.

“I hid it from you because I didn’t want you to worry.” David looked down at Rachel and reached out togently stroke her cheek with his well–defined fingers.

The man’s fingertips were slightly cold and landed on Rachel’s cheek. Rachel avoided it without atrace. Rachel raised her eyes and looked at David calmly and coldly “Are you afraid that I’ll worry, or doyou think I’m not worthy of knowing“”

Ever since they met. Rachel had never shown David such a cold sied.

It was as if Rachel was facing a stranger.

David frowned imperceptibly, and a cold light shot out of his dark eyes.

However, when David’s gaze met the woman’s red eyes, his heart inexplicably softened

David sighed softly and slowly bent down to pull Rachel into lus arms Just as David was about to kissRachel, Rachel turned her head to avoid his touch

Rachel ignored the look on David’s face. She pulled off his arm that was wrapped around her waist andretreated from his embrace in a flash. The entire process was clean and neat as it a man and a womanwere deliberately avoiding suspicion.

This action made David feel uneasy Rae–Rae *

“David”

The two of them spoke in unisonE

Rachel looked at David calmly. Rachel clearly had a lot to say to David before she came. During herclimbing to the

venty–sixth floor, she thought of a lot of things. But now that David was standing in front of her, Racheldid not know what

Was it forgiveness?

No, it was helplessness, mental exhaustion, and letting go.

Ever since they got together. Rachel had been looking for ways to prove her ability.

Rachel wanted to use her actions to tell David that she could advance and retreat with him.

Rachel didn’t want to hide under David’s wings, so she couldn’t accept David’s excuse of being afraidthat she would worry.

After pondering for a long time. Rachel sighed softly. “David, did you not trust me from the beginning?Is it that I was never in your future plans?”

Perhaps from the beginning. Rachel was the dispensable person in David’s future life.

When David heard Rachel’s words, an obvious panic flashed across his eyes. David’s lips becamepale, and his Adam’s apple. rolled up and down. His voice was as dry as a traveler who had walked inthe desert for three days and three nights. “Rae–Rae, you can be angry, hit me, or scold me, but youcan’t misunderstand…”

“Heh” Rachel could not help but interrupt David with a chuckle. She looked at him calmly andindifferently. Her tone was so calm that there was no emotional fluctuation. I was just expressing myfeelings sincerely. How did it become misunderstanding you?”

Rachel’s calmness and indifference made David feel no love at all. It was as if an insurmountable gaphad formed between them, and David had lost the right to approach Rachel.

“Do you think that I’m only worthy of hiding behind you cowardly? With my ability. I’m not worthy ofwalking side by side with you”

“No, L…”

“You did!” Rachel interrupted David again. “If you didn’t, why didn’t you tell me anything when you wereinjured? Why did you team up with Chris to hide it from me? You hid it from me for a long time with aplan. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have used your connections to change the venue of the Real EstateSummit to Titia and wouldn’t have brought forward the date of the Real Estate Summit. Didn’t you sendme away because you wanted me to know nothing about you?

“Actually, you don’t have to go through so much trouble, and you don’t have to hide it from me with theexcuse of good intentions. You don’t know, right? My greatest strength is that Im self–aware and tactful.As long as you tell me, I won’t cross the line. As long as you tell me. I won’t have any thoughts ofinvestigating everything you’re hiding.”

At this point. Rachel could not help but sigh softly. “David, I’m tired.”

Rachel was really tired.

The two of them had clearly agreed to go through thick and thin together, but every time David made achoice for Rachel. David even kicked Rachel out without even saying anything

Rachel knew that David had good intentions and did not want her to put herself in danger, but shereally did not need such good intentions.
