Chapter 749


    Just now, he had tried to knock on the door once more, but she ignored him.


    Nevertheless, he was not going to give up so easily.


    He must bring Rachel Wood back to Antis no matter what the cost.


    Gazing at the ck car downstairs, Rachel’s heart was slowly torn to pieces.


    Buzz buzz buzz… Rachel’s phone vibrated.


    She had never seen this number before.


    She hesitated for a moment before answering the call.


    “Rachel! It’s me, Natalie. You still remember me, right?” A familiar voice rang in her ear, reminding


    her of the memories back in high school.


    Natalie Fisher, a girl who sat next to her in ninth grade.


    “How did you get my number?” Rachel asked.


    “I went to hospital today and met your mom. Your mom gave it to me. Speaking of which, our


    ssmates are having a gathering tonight. Do you want to join us?” Natalie continued, “We haven’t


    seen you for years. Don’t tell me you can’t make it, okay? I won’t buy that. If you say ‘no’, we’re


    going to crash your house and pick you up in person.


    “We all know that you have nothing to dotely. You quit your job, and you’re spending most of your


    time at home…” Nataliemented.


    Her demand had put Rachel in an awkward position. Having no other choice, Rachel nodded


    helplessly and muttered, “Sure.”


    Her parents were clueless about what she was doing in Antis. She had been lying to them that


    she was working in a PRpany in Antis.


    When she returned home to recuperate from the operation, she did not tell her parents all the


    misery she had gone through. She just mentioned that she had quit her job and wanted to stay at


    home for a short period.


    She clearly remembered the day when she first went to Antis. Her father suffered from uremia,


    and his health was going downhill at that time, to the extent that he had to undergo a kidney


    transnt. They were lucky enough to find a kind donor, but they could not afford the surgery.


    She did not know what to do. Misled by her urge, she chose the wrong path and sold herself to


    Unconscious Bar.


    To prevent her parents from finding out her foolish decision, scolding her, and refusing to ept her


    money, she could only hide the truth and tell them that she had borrowed the money from her


    colleagues.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Fortunately, she met Sebastian Brenand the day she set foot into the bar, and the man took her


    away from that filthy ce.


    From then on, the man kept her by his side. She did not lose herself in that wrong path, thanks to


    him.


    Her first night with Sebastian was fresh in her memory.


    He teased her about her hymen, saying that it seemed real.


    She said that it was real.


    However, the man did not believe it. Heughed that every woman he met had told him the same


    thing.


    Instead of rifying herself, she decided to keep her mouth shut because she knew that her


    exnation would be pointless anyway.


    “Rachel… Rachel?” Natalie’s voice jerked her back from those painful memories.


    She came back to her senses and smiled awkwardly. “Hmm?”


    “Eight o’clock tonight. Edgewater Grand Hotel. Elegenza Private Room. I’ll see you there, alright?


    All of our ssmates will be there.”


    “Okay.”


    After hanging up the phone, Rachel opened her closet, intending to pick a nice dress to meet her


    old friends.


    All the clothes she brought back with her were from notable international brands. They were all gifts


    from Sebastian.


    Nheless, she did not even look at those fancy clothes as she wanted to keep a low profile. On


    the contrary, she took the red and white checkered bodycon dress she had bought from Amazon


    months ago.


    After all, she told everyone that she was just an ordinary office worker.


    After choosing the dress, she put it aside and sat on the bed, then called Dr. Orsen.


    “Miss Rachel, why haven’t youe for chemotherapy?” asked the doctor.


    “Dr. Orsen… Can you do me a favor?” Rachel asked cautiously. The glow in her eyes had all faded.


    “Sure, shoot.”


    ***


    It was already two o’clock in the afternoon when X Quest finished her work.


    She ordered a takeaway.


    After having lunch, she went back to work again.


    In the evening, Jeremy Quest gave her a call and asked her to go home for lunch tomorrow.
