Chapter 179 Are You Scared

Victor's body froze, and his eyes moved slowly to the woman in the bed. Rachel felt that she waswaking up from a long dream. Right from being abandoned at the orphanage gate to goingthrough all kinds of things in her life. Finally, it seemed to be stuck on an image of a pool of blood.A slight pain woke her up. Her hand was clenched so tightly that it hurt. Subconsciously, she lookedtowards it. Victor realized this and let go of her hand. “Miss Bennet, you're finally awake.” Thedoctor walked to her bed. “Are you in any pain? Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?”

Rachel closed her eyes and was silent for a while. Finally, she said in a hoarse voice, “Water.” Lukas,who stood a few steps behind the doctor, immediately went to fetch her a glass of water. For thenext ten minutes, the doctor asked several questions as he checked Rachel. “Miss Bennet, you needto stay in bed and rest for some days. Don't make any sudden moves or exert yourself. Also, try notto get too emotional,” the doctor said as he took off his stethoscope.

“Doctor, my baby..." Rachel unknowingly placed a hand on her stomach. The scene from before shefainted flashed through her mind, and her heart squeezed. “Don’t worry. Your baby is doing greatand is healthy.” 1 “Thank you. Thank you so much.” The doctor smiled kindly and said, “You'rewelcome. You have a good rest. I'll leave now.” Lukas accompanied the doctor out of the ward andasked him about the precautions they needed to take. The ward turned silent. “Rachel...” Victor saidas the light in his eyes dimmed. Rachel interrupted him.

“Mr. Sullivan, I would like to rest now.” Victor looked at her pale face. He realized that she lookedthinner and more fragile in just one night. His heart stung, and the words got stuck in his throat.Rachel didn't look at him and simply closed her eyes. After a long time, she heard the door openand close

Rachel slowly opened her eyes and saw that Victor had left the ward. Emotionlessly, she gentlyplaced her hands on her abdomen, pursed her lips, and frowned slightly. “I'm so sorry, little one.Mommy shouldn't have put you in danger. It's my fault. I didn't protect you. I almost lost youbecause of my foolishness.’ she couldn't wait any longer.

Rachel lay in the hospital bed for two full days before recovering completely from her coma. Sincethey had almost lost the baby, Lukas decided to take care of Rachel himself. He went to Sue Gardenlate at night and returned early the next morning. Early in the morning, the door of the ward waspushed open. In the past two days, Rachel slept lightly. Hearing the noise, she looked out thewindow. Looking at the gray sky, she determined that it wasn't six o'clock yet.

“Lukas, why have you come so early?” “Meow!” A cat's mew was crystal clear, especially in the largeand quiet ward. Rachel's eyes widened in surprise. She sat up and looked in the direction of thesound, only to replace a white cat timidly walking inside. The cat's head bobbed up and down as itsniffed the strange air “Kitten?!” Rachel started to smile as soon as she laid eyes on the little cat. Shegot out of bed and gently picked it up.

“Is it you? How did you come here? Are you feeling better now? Are you in any pain?” She wentback to the bed with the kitten in her arms and looked at it all over. The cat gently licked her handand rubbed its head on the back of her hand gently as a response. At the same time, Victor stoodoutside the ward and watched through the small window in the door. He saw Rachel with the catand how happy she looked.

A big hand rested on his shoulder. “So for the past two days, you searched the entire city for this catto just give it to Rachel?” Carson was sleepy and couldn't hold back his yawn as he looked at Victorstrangely. Just for a cat, they had searched the entire city. Even he was dragged out of his bed at anungodly hour in the morning to help Victor look for a cat.

They hadn't slept properly in the past two days. Victor looked at Carson's hand on his shoulder andgrowled lightly, “If you don't want this hand, I don’t mind cutting it off for you.” A shiver went upCarson's spine, and he withdrew his hand. When Victor turned around to leave, Carson stopped him."Wait! Are you leaving? Why don't you go in? Didn't you search the entire city for a cat just for her?”“That's not necessary.” “Is it not necessary, or are you scared?” Carson asked.
