Chapter 349: Why Are You Here


    The man standing at the door obviously didn’t expect that Rachel would be in the ward. He was too


    stunned to react “He just caught a cold. Besides, Lukas is taking care of him. You don’t really need to


    come here. Why are you so worried about Joey? To be honest, if we didn’t know that this little guy is


    Odin’s son, we might think that he is your child.”


    While speaking, Carson walked slowly behind Victor. Victor’s back was blocking what was inside, so he


    didn’t know that there was someone else in the ward.


    “Well, I’m serious. You go back and lie down after seeing him, so you’ll get better soon. In that way, you


    can go back to work. I don’t want to be the acting CEO of the Sullivan Group anymore. It’s too tiresome


    for me.”


    The moment Carson noticed that Victor stopped at the door, he peeped to see what was happening


    inside. Only then did he saw the woman sitting beside Joey. Rachel had expected Lukas toe back.


    But to her surprise, the man standing at the door was Victor. Carson raised his eyebrows in surprise.


    “Miss Be.” Rachel asked Joey to lie down before she stood up to acknowledge Victor and Carson’s


    presence. But she felt a hand tugging at the hem of her shirt.


    Upon looking down, she found Joey’s little hand pulling her back.


    Rachel’s eyshes fluttered as she recalled what Joey said a while ago. She slowly removed his hand


    and hooked his little finger with hers. At first, Joey thought that his mother was angry. Panic and fear


    shed across his eyes. He subconsciously wanted to tighten his grip on the hem of her shirt.


    Unexpectedly, Rachel hooked his little finger and gently smiled at him.


    Although she could see that Joey was confused, Rachel didn’t say anything and raised her head to


    look at Victor and Carson. “Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Scott.”


    “We have known each other for such a long time. Aren’t you being too formal? Just call me Carson.”


    Thanks to Carson’s yfulness, the tension in the room at that moment was reduced.


    “Didn’t you just call me Miss Be?” The way Rachel said this sounded as if it wasn’t a big deal.


    “Well, I’m being polite.” As Carson spoke, he nced at Victor who was still silent beside him.


    Since Victor opened the door and saw Rachel, he never took his eyes off her. But thetter never threw


    him a single nce at all. She could definitely feel his gaze but deliberately ignored it.


    It was as if Victor didn’t exist. On the other hand, Rachel only responded to Carson with a small smile.


    Everyone knew that Carson had an acid tongue and liked to joke around, so she didn’t take his words


    by heart.


    After patting Victor on his shoulder, Carson entered the ward and walked to the hospital bed where joey


    was lying down. “Little boy,” he greeted with a smile. Still worried that his mother was angry, Joey was


    not in the mood for a chit-chat, He only nced at Carson and didn’t greet him back.


    Without a warning, Carson put his hand on Joey’s forehead.


    Thetter quickly turned his head away and red at Carson in annoyance. It was too cold, How could


    Carson’s hand be so cold?


    “A fever isn’t enough to damage your brain. I doubt that you don’t remember me. Why won’t you greet


    me back? Huh?” For some reason, sensing Joey’s disgust amused Carson. “Are you feeling better,


    little boy?” “Yes.” Not wanting to argue with him, Joey was forced to respond. However, his eyes were


    still fixed on his mothers face.

    No matter how obtuse Carson was, he could tell that Joey seemed excessively dependent to Rachel.


    He wasn’t surprised to see Rachel here since Joey had already met her once. But they seemed so


    close. Carson had met Joey more than once, but the little boy wasn’t that unguarded around him. “I


    almost forgot to ask, Miss Be, why are you here?”
