    Chapter 443


    The Johnson family people and Rachel arrived at the hospital early to wait. Everyone was called to the


    side of the bed by Old Mr. Johnson. He said as if he was making the arrangements before dying, “Tom,


    Adrian, I don’t have any requirements for you but to swear that no matter what danger you encounter in


    the future, you have to protect Rae-Rae even if you have to risk your lives! Your sister passed away


    early. Rae-Rae is her only child. You have to protect her at all times!”


    Tom and Adrian looked helpless, but under Old Mr. Johnson’s insistence, they had no choice but to


    swear.


    Seeing the two of them swear, Old Mr. Johnson waved at Rachel. “Rae-Rae, do know what I want to


    say?”


    you


    Rachel lowered her eyes to hide her expression. “Grandfather, what do you want to say?”


    “Do you really not know?” Old Mr. Johnson’s eyes shed with a meaningful smile. “I’m about to enter


    the operating theater. Whether I can get off the operating table or not is up to fate. I hope you can


    promise me that you won’t have anything to do with David Jones from now on. He’s not a good match


    for you!”


    Rachel did not know how to answer for a moment.


    Old Mr. Johnson saw the situation and sighed faintly. “Why are you so stubborn? You’re exactly the


    same as your mother! See, I’m about to enter the operating theater. What if I can’t survive? Can’t you


    follow my words and make me happy?” “There’s no what ifs,” Rachel said, “The operation will definitely


    go smoothly.”


    In the face of death, even Old Mr. Johnson, who had once dominated the business world, could not


    help but feel terrified.


    He was worried that there would be an ident during the operation and was even more worried that


    he would never wake up again.


    “Grandfather, we’ll wait for you toe out.” Rachel held Old Mr. Johnson’s hand hard.


    Old Mr. Johnson pursed his lips and took a deep breath. He looked at Rachel with a solemn


    expression. “Alright, let’s have a good chat after the operation.”


    “Okay.”


    The operationsted for three hours. Fortunately, the operation was sessful.


    When Old Mr. Johnson was pushed out of the operating theater, he was in a half-asleep state because


    the effects of the anesthetic had yet to dissipate.


    Wharton walked to Rachel and said respectfully, “Miss Grey, Old Mr. Johnson, given his age, will be in


    intensive care for the next 24 hours, and when we make sure his vitals are stable, we’ll transfer him to


    a regr ward.”


    “Thank you,” Rachel said.


    Wharton smiled and waved his hand, “This is what I should do. If you have any problems, you can


    contact me anytime.”


    Rachel nodded and walked to the window of the intensive care unit. Through the ss, she looked at


    Old Mr. Johnson who was lying inside.


    Then, her gaze involuntarilynded on the heart detector.


    At this moment, only the numbers on it and the undting curves made her feel

    at ease.


    Lucas, who was closest to her, sensed her nervousness. He stretched out his broad palm and wrapped


    it around her cold fingertips. “Don’t be nervous. Didn’t the doctor say that the operation was very


    sessful? Let’s go back first ande again tomorrow.”


    Rachel nced at him and hesitated for a moment before nodding.


    In the parking lot, Lucas started the car. “Where are we going?”


    Rachel shook her head. “You can make the arrangements.”


    She was not in the mood now, and she wouldn’t be able to calm down when she went to the office. She


    might as well go out and get some fresh air.


    The car shot out like an arrow. Rachel held her cheek with one hand and looked at the rapidly


    retreating scenery outside the car window.


    When she looked up, she noticed an inconspicuous ck business car in the rearview mirror.


    She narrowed her eyes and a cold glint appeared in her eyes
