Chapter 2100


    The police officer seemed shocked. "What''s the matter? Are you worried I might make a mess in your house? Why did you suddenly change your mind about going inside?"


    He was excited to go inside and look around as a new experience. Coming from a small town, he''d never been anywhere that was as luxurious. However, Rachel Wood hastily shook her head. "No, I don''t want to go inside anymore. Can you please take me to Merlin Avenue?"


    The officer had a surprised look in his eyes. "Why don''t you want to go inside?"


    Wouldn''t an ordinary person want to return home right after a traumatic experience?


    Why did Rachel refuse to go home?


    She was even crying.


    "I have my reasons. Please, I''m begging you," she implored, wiping her tears away.


    The officer nodded slightly, giving onest lingering gaze at the house before driving away.


    When they were on the road, Rachel spotted a ck Bentley driving towards them.


    The car had a familiar registration number. It was a series of nines.


    It was Sebastian Brenand''s car.


    He was sitting inside.


    Panicking at the thought, she instantlyid t on her seat, afraid that he might see her as their cars drove past each other.


    Inside the Bentley, Sebastian was yelling at his subordinate over the phone. "It''s been so long, and you still haven''t found Rachel. What are you doing? You can all pack up and leave if this goes on!"


    As he drove past the police car, he noticed that it wasn''t the local police. He unintentionally nced at it but didn''t allow his gaze to linger.


    Soon, the two cars drove past each otherpletely.


    After a while, Rachel sat upright, noticing his Bentley driving further and further away from her through the rearview mirror.


    Just like their lives, they would forever be apart.


    "There sure are a lot of wealthy


    a


    people in Antis. That Bentley must cost up to tens of millions, right?" the officer suddenly asked, peering at the Bentley that was heading in the opposite direction through the rearview mirror.


    “I guess so,” she muttered, nodding slightly as her tears began to fall again.


    Upon arriving at Merlin Avenue, the officer stopped the car.


    Rachel gazed at him in contemtion. "Sir, can you please lend me your phone for a minute?"


    He didn''t hesitate as he handed his phone to her.


    After taking a deep breath, she called one of her ex-ssmates, Woodrow Gaston.


    All her friends from before had left Antis, except for this guy who would still keep in touch and whose stilb

    She could recall thest time they chatted on WeChat that this was where he lived.


    The phone call soon connected. "Hey, it''s Rachel Wood. I''m at Merlin Avenue. Do you still live here? Could you do me a favor?"


    The person answered her decisively. "Okay, sure. "Where are you? I''lle to you right now."


    Rachel took a deep breath and told him where she was before thanking the police officer and getting out of the car.


    Once the police officer was gone, she waited eagerly for her ex-ssmate to arrive.
