    Chapter 828


    Rachel did not say anything, and her eyes turned cold bit by bit. Her gaze was so sharp as if there was


    a knife hidden in the depths of her eyes and it would stab into the others’ hearts at moment, making the


    doctor not dare to act rashly.

    The doctor looked at Rachel’s expression and hesitated for a while before saying carefully, “ording


    to our observations, the bullet has been in her body for three years, and she’s been enduring huge pain


    every day Moreover, as she moves during her daily life, the bullet also moves in her body bit by bit. If it


    weren’t for the medicine and supplementary treatment over the years, she probably wouldn’t have been


    able to stand up”


    So, ever since Rachel met Aileen. Aileen had been sitting for so long without standing up Was it


    because of the bullet stuck in her spine


    Rachel took a deep breath and clenched her fists “What’s the probability of getting it out?”


    The doctor’s face was covered with seriousness when he heard that. He pondered for a moment and


    continued, “The bullet is currently located in her first lumbar spine. If it’s taken out rashly, it will cause


    paralysis of the lower limbs below the lumbar spine. ?n serious cases, it will cause high paraplegia.”


    As soon as he finished speaking, the entire corridor fell into a strange silence.


    The doctor said a lot more, but Rachel couldn’t remember any of them. All she could remember was


    that “If it’s taken out rashly, it will cause paralysis of the lower limbs below the lumbar spine. In serious


    cases, it will cause high paraplegia”.


    Based on Rachel’s understanding of Aileen, how could such a proud and arrogant person like Aileen


    allow her lower body to be paralyzed and spent the rest of her life in a wheelchair?


    Moreover, with the strength and status of the Skysgate Group. Aileen’s family must have asked experts


    from all over the world for advice. However, in the end, they had no choice but to choose conservative


    treatment and rely on various medicines to relieve Aileen’s paini


    Rachel sat on the chair in the corridor for a long time until the sound of a cup breaking came from the


    ward. She suddenly came back to her senses, got up, and rushed in


    Aileen twisted her body stiffly and reached out for the cup on the table, but she identally knocked it


    over.


    She pursed her lips after hearing the sound at the door I scared you, didn’t [°


    It seemed to be an ordinary sentence, yet it contained a deeper meaning


    Aileen had tried her best to hide the fact that she was injured, but she did not expect that she would not


    be able to hide anything in the end


    Rachel pursed her lips and walked forward to pour a cup of water. She asked meaningfully. “It hurt a


    lot, right?”


    Because of those simple words, tears welled up in Aileen’s eyes uncontrobly


    Aileen raised her hand to wipe the wet corners of her eyes and chuckled “As expected, I’m getting old. I


    start to be unreasonable just because of such little pain. Back then, when our team of twelve was


    together, we had suffered all kinds of injuries, but at that time, it was as if we couldn’t feel any pain”


    As she talked about the past, Aileen’s pale fare gradually became a little rosy, and the corners of her


    lips curled up slightly. “I


    feltfortable and carefree bark then”


    Rachel’s deep eyes stared at Aileen without blinking. After pondering for a long time, her cold voice


    was a little hoarse as she


    1. “Did you get injured after I lef


    Alleen nodded. She stroked the water cup in her hand gently with her fingertips and said unhurriedly.


    “That day, we suddenly received a mission to escort a batch of medicine at the border. That batch of


    medicine was still in the experimental stage and was important to us. That night, we made a n to set


    off


    “We thought that everything was going nothly. We wrcessfully snatched the medicine from the


    reactionaries, but we were attacked on the way in the car Gaven and covered for the attack and


    retreated, yet we were forced into the minefield. After escaping death, we were attacked on the way I


    was unfortunately shot.


    Alleen voce berame a little choked, and her grip


    the water cup htened involuntarily Her knuckles were pale as if she was trying hard to control the panic


    and uneasiness in her heart


    The burning feeling of being pierced by a bullet seemed to happen yesterday every time Aileen thought


    about it, and her memory was still vivid


    After Aileen was injured, she fell off a cliff. For the sake of the overall situation, she took the initiative to


    cut off contact with the team. Then, she fell into aa because she lost too much blood


    When Aileen woke up again, she saw her father standing in front of her bed with red eyes


    Aileen used her calmest tone to talk about the incident as if it has nothing to do with her. Rachel could


    not help but feel sorry for her


    Actually, Aileen had taken the bullet for Vulture. Until now, she had never regretted it.


    Aileen was just annoyed that she was forced to leave the Red me Army before she could even tell


    Vulture about her affection for him.


    Just as Aileen was lost in her thoughts, Rachel’s voice suddenly sounded in her car. “Does Vulture


    know?”


    “What?” Aileen was stunned for a moment. She suddenly looked up and met Rachel’s sharp gaze, her


    eyes blinking a few times in a daze. She lowered her eyes and looked unnatural, saying half-jokingly,


    “Is there a need to tell him? Is he able to


    treat me?”


    “You like him and didn’t hesitate to take a bullet for him. He should know,” Rachel said.


    Upon hearing that, Aileen felt choked as if her heart was being squeezed by something. She held her


    breath and looked at Rachel in disbelief.


    Aileen thought that she had hidden it well, yet she did not expect Rachel to know everything.


    Aileen opened her mouth and tried to control the panic in her heart. “How how did you tell?”


    “Because it’s written here, Rachel said. She leaned in front of Aileen and pointed at Aileen’s face. “It


    reads I like Vulture here


    Upon hearing that, Aileen could not help but raise her hand to touch her face. She lowered her eyes


    and muttered to herself, “Is it that obvious?”


    Rachel sat back on the chair, crossed her arms, and looked at Aileen with a meaningful smile. “Did you


    get drunk on purposest night?


    Aileen didn’t expect the topic to be brought up. She hesitated for a moment before nodding. “Originally,


    I mustered up the courage to talk to him, but for some reason…”


    They then slept together in the same bed….


    You’ve done so much for him. Do you want to find an opportunity to confess your love for him?”


    “Forget it.” Aileen’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “It’s a fruitless matter anyway. Why do I have to


    humiliate myself?” Previously, Aileen had mocked Vulture for thinking too much and not daring to


    confess. Vulture was afraid that he would not even be able to be friends with the girl he liked after


    being rejected.


    Now, Aileen was worried about the same thing, so she had not taken action all these years.


    Perhaps Rachel did not know what Vulture was thinking, but Aileen did.


    “If you miss the opportunity, I don’t know how long you’ll have to wait for the next time.” Rachel picked


    up an apple and weighed it in her hand. Then, she picked up a knife and peeled the apple methodically.


    “Once he returns to the border, you’ll have fewer chances to see him. If he epts you before he


    leaves, his trip will be worth it.”


    “Do you think he and I are a good match?”


    “Only you know best whether your shoes fit or not. Why do you care so much?”
