Chapter 2045 Making A Choice


    “Please, take a seat.”


    A familiar voice rang out, causing Elisa to stiffen slightly as she turned around. There, she saw Vincent.


    The person who used to care most about his image now had his eyelids drooping over his eyes. He


    looked utterly listless. Underneath his eyes were dark circles, and some stubble had grown on his chin,


    which he hadn’t bothered to shave off


    The person seemed entirely different from before, and it was clear that the change was due to ack of


    rest and excessive worry.


    Although Vincent appeared frail, his voice was surprisingly robust, which put Elisa at ease. It’s a relief


    that Vincent didn’t get sick because of this. I can’t imagine causing harm to two people at once.


    Be helped Elisa to sit down. Vincent casually put down the things in his hand and looked at her.


    Elisa gave it a cursory nce. It was all toiletries and daily necessities. Is he nning to stay here?


    Facing Elisa’s somewhat doubtful gaze, Vincent tugged at the corner of his mouth, forcing a somewhat


    stiff smile, “I just bought some stuff and put my work aside, I just want to take care of Rachel here.


    She’s such a strong person. How could it be okay for her to stay alone in the hospital?”


    Elisa was taken aback. She then followed Vincent’s gaze toward Rachel, who was lying motionless on


    the bed.


    If it weren’t for the still-beating heart monitor, there would probably be no evidence to prove that she


    was still alive.


    Elisa lowered her gaze before she looked at Vincent again. “I heard that yourw firm was promoting


    you to be a partner. Why did you turn it down?”


    Although Elisa was in the hospital, herwork of connections was still extensive outside. She was


    aware of all the news.


    In addition to the influential Gareth, Vincent wasn’t surprised by the fact that Elisa knew about the


    promotion.


    However, Vincent didn’t expect words to travel so fast. I only turned down the offer two hours ago, and


    Elisa has already heard about it.


    Despite his thoughts, Vincent didn’t ask her how Elisa knew about it because that wasn’t important.


    He simply nodded in response.


    Elisa anxiously asked, “Why? Is it because you need to take care of Rachel? We can actually take


    turns doing that. She wouldn’t want to hinder your promotion. That was an opportunity of a lifetime.


    Rachel would be upset if she knew.”


    Be also looked at Vincent with a face full of agreement. Vincent hooked up the corner of his mouth in


    a smile, tilting his head back, his gaze seeming to see through the present and into the distant past.


    As the person involved, Vincent appeared quite carefree when he answered, “She wouldn’t be upset. If


    she knew that I quietly became a partner while she was unconscious, then she would be upset when


    she woke up. Besides, I don’t have that much time and energy right now. My mind is not on it at all.”


    Elisa wanted to persuade him further, but Vincent’s next response stopped her from doing so.


    “I never wanted to be confined by rules and regtions. Compared to the immediate benefits in front of


    me, I prefer to consider my future. I like…” His gaze fell on Rachel as he tugged at the corner of his


    mouth. and continued, “I want a future that includes her. If I get promoted to partner, it will be tough for


    us to meet. I’ll have to schedule time by the minute. Isn’t it better the way it is now? There will be plenty


    of opportunities in the future. If some things aren’t done now, I might regret it for the rest of my life.”

    Upon hearing that, Elisa naturally didn’t have much else to say.


    Be opened her mouth slightly, but she couldn’t utter a single word.
