"If the date doesn't conflict with our business, my wife and I will definitely attend. We'll leave first, then," Justin politely replied to Shannon.

"Have a safe journey. Mr. Richards, see Mr. Burton and Mrs. Burton off."

Rachel took Justin's hand and left. When passing by the lounge, she glanced inside the room through the half-opened door and met Leroy's gaze. Leroy, who had just raised his head, was shocked. Rachel naturally withdrew her gaze. Pretending to talk to Justin, she left the hospital with him. "Mr. Richards, thanks. We're leaving."

"Mr. Burton, Mrs. Burton, safe travels."

The car drove away from the inpatient department, and Mr. Richards' figure in the rearview mirror also slowly disappeared. Rachel finally couldn't help it and asked Justin, "Did you see it just now?"

"I did." Justin frowned slightly. In the half-opened door just now, there was a young girl sobbing, and Leroy was hugging her to comfort her.

"How could he do this? How dare he do this to Jolly?" Rachel was in disbelief as her fists clenched tightly. "If he was compelled to do that, he shouldn't be looking so sincere."

"Don't be anxious. There may be something we don't know." Rachel wanted to say something when she saw a familiar figure standing by the road from a distance.

"It's Miss Carter." Frankie's voice came from the front. Rachel and Justin looked at each other, both of them reaching an understanding. After Jolly got into the car, Rachel said nothing about seeing Leroy and the woman in the hospital, and Justin also cooperated. "How was it? Did you see him? Is that woman the daughter of the boss of Grandeur Group? Is he going to marry her?"

Rachel shook her head. "I didn't see anything. Shannon was too vigilant, so I didn't even see what that woman looked like."

"What?" Jolly was anxious. "Didn't you say you were going to check on them? If I knew it would be like that, it would've been better for me to go in. But you made me come out first."

"Although I didn't see the woman and didn't talk to Leroy, I saw Leroy inside, and he saw me, so he should know now that you have come to Enistan too."

"What's the use of that?"

"At the very least, he'll be mentally prepared." Rachel clenched her fists. If it was a misunderstanding, Leroy would definitely be ready to meet Jolly and even be prepared to protect her well, but if he really failed Jolly, he would be ready to be beaten up.

All in all, it was impossible for them to come here in vain. Back at the hotel downtown, Justin went to the front desk to check in. He went to the hospital as soon as he got off the plane in the morning and didn't have time to check in.

Originally, Rachel and Jolly were going upstairs to rest first. Before entering the elevator, Rachel suddenly thought of something. "Go back to your room first. I have to do something."

After saying this, she left Jolly and went straight to the front desk. Justin was checking in at the front desk. When he was showing his documents as required by the front desk, a hand suddenly stretched out next to him. Rachel handed a document over and said, "Please help me change the room. I want to be in the same room as him."

Justin was startled by the familiar voice. The front desk was also taken aback for a moment. Then, she looked at Justin subconsciously, asking for his opinion..

Justin was surprised for a few seconds, after which he nodded slowly. After checking in, Rachel and Justin went to the elevator together. Rachel explained as they walked, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that..."

"You're afraid that Mrs. Bennett will send someone to the hotel to deliver invitations in the next two days. If they replace out that we are not staying in the same room, they will be suspicious."

"Yeah."

Justin said, "Actually, you don't have to worry. We have nothing to do with her. She doesn't care about who we are. Otherwise, it will be clear if she sends someone to check my identity." Rachel was surprised for a moment and quickly understood the meaning of Justin's words.

The purpose of their arrival was just to visit on behalf of Marcus' old friend and bring something to him. It was just an errand. They could not fight against Lush Enterprise and Grandeur Group, and Shannon only invited them to the wedding out of politeness. Everything seemed to be under her control, so she had no reason to be suspicious of them.

"But what if she doesn't invite us to the wedding?"

Justin said calmly, "It shouldn't be difficult to get into a wedding with so many random people invited."

Rachel was stunned for a while

before she could react. At this moment, the elevator reached its intended floor, whereupon Rachel followed Justin out and couldn't help but say, "You were infected by Jolly, right? How can you come up with such a bad idea? I thought you came

here because you had a foolproof

plan."

"I wanted to be ready before coming, but you two were rushing too fast for me to do that." Justin's tone was helpless with a bit of indulgence. "Room card."

Hearing Justin's words, Rachel returned to her senses, remembering that the front desk had just handed over both room cards to her. She hurriedly handed it over and said, "Here you go. Since that's the case, then I'll go back and stay with Jolly." After saying this, she turned to leave, but before she took a step, her arm was caught..

When she returned to her senses, the man had already pulled her into the room. There was a 'click' sound of the door closing behind them, isolating the sound from outside. Justin's voice came from above her head; it was low and powerful. "What I'm saying is that she won't come to check our identities on purpose, but if the person who comes to deliver the invitation replaces out that we are not staying together, she will be suspicious."

He was very close to her. Because of the height difference, the tip of his nose almost touched her eyebrows. Rachel could even see his eyelashes clearly. If she had time, she could even count them one by one. For a while, she was speechless.

"Then... You mean..."

"During this time, you can stay here with me." Justin's hand naturally retracted from the doorknob by her side, and while walking into the room, he took off his suit jacket. "You sleep on the bed; I'll sleep on the sofa."

Rachel was still leaning against the

door, her chest heaving and her mind putting what just happened on replay. Justin's mouth shape when he explained the reason to her was stuck in her mind. The thin lips that opened and closed lingered in front ofher eyes.

After a long while, Justin put down his jacket and turned around when he didn't get Rachel's response. "What's wrong with you?"

Rachel shook her head. "It's nothing. What did you just say?"

"I said you sleep on the bed, and I'll just sleep on the sofa."

Seeing Rachel still looking confused and not looking well, Justin strode over, stretched out a hand, and touched her forehead. "What's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"

As soon as his hand touched her forehead, Rachel felt the fire burning within her. Justin was surprised. "Why is your forehead burning?"

Rachel was still stunned. She suddenly felt that she had gotten re-acquainted with the man in front of her.

She didn't even know when it started. His appearance, personality, and even the tone of his speech gradually overlapped with the gentle young man she met in Somerset Mountain more than 20 years ago.
