He Saw Rachel
“Four years ago, your mommy had an operation to keep a baby. This operation lasted for ten hours, and
this is the record of that operation. In this record, there was a notice signed by Victor himself, when he
was asked whether to keep the baby or Rachel’s life… He chose the baby.”
Joey heard Maria continue, “At that time, if he decided to give up on Rachel, Rachel would die at any
time. The success rate of saving the child was only five percent, but the success rate of saving the
mother was eighty percent.” That was to say, knowing the success rate of these two choices, he chose to
keep the child’s life without hesitation.
He didn’t care about Rachel’s life at all.” After going back to the hotel from the Sullivan family, What
Maria said to him kept echoing in Joey’s mind, as well as Victor’s signature on the notice. His written
name was printed in Joey’s mind, which made Joey’s fists clenched. ‘Daddy, he almost killed Mommy…’
He pressed his lips, trying his best to suppress his emotions. Suddenly, the doorbell rang again. Joey
looked out of the window. It was getting dark. Who else would be here at this time? After a short
hesitation, he walked to the door, grabbed the doorknob and pressed it down, then he opened the door…
Half an hour ago. In the CEO Office of the Sullivan Group. Ivan knocked on the door and put a U disk on
the table. “Mr. Sullivan, the result of the paternity test has been sent here.” Looking down at the U disk
for a while, Victor didn’t intend to take it. He just asked in a low voice, “What’s the result?”
“The result shows…” After a pause, Ivan said slowly, “There might be a 99.9% chance that Joey is Odin’s
son.” Then, Ivan turned on the test result he had copied on his iPad and handed it to Victor. Victor raised
his eyes and looked at the result of the paternity test. His hand unconsciously tightened, but he didn’t say
anything.
After a long time, there was still no response from him. After hesitating for a while, Ivan asked, “Mr.
Sullivan, shall we send someone to pick up Joey?
Since the news of Odin’s death came, Mrs. Sullivan has been staying in the old house. I don’t know what
she is planning. If she knows the existence of Joey, I’m afraid that she will use him to get through the
media.” Now the news of Odin’s death hadn’t spread widely in the country, but it should be soon.
Although Odin was deprived of his real power by Victor, he was still the second son of the Sullivan family
and the second most powerful leader in the Sullivan Group. His death was not a small news. The
shareholders also would need a reasonable explanation to keep their morale.
Otherwise, the stock price of the Sullivan Group would inevitably suffer a great turmoil. Ivan thought that
Maria would go crazy if she knew her son was dead. After all, she cared about her son so much. But to
his surprise, she didn’t. She just cried and locked herself in the room since then. She didn’t make any
scenes. She didn’t even attend the board meeting in the afternoon, in which Victor was asked to give an
explanation about Odin’s death.
She only entrusted a servant of hers to attend it symbolically. It was not like her at all. The calmer she
was, the more uneasy Ivan felt. He always felt that she was full of schemes and was waiting for them to
get into her trap. “Don’t bother.” After a moment of silence, Victor picked up his suit on the armrest and
stood up.
“I’ll pick him up myself.” Ivan was stunned. By the time he came to his senses, Victor had already walked
to the door of the office. He came to his senses and followed Victor. About ten minutes later, the black
Maybach slowly drove out of the underground parking lot of the Sullivan Group to the hotel Joey was
staying in. Ivan looked carefully at Victor sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror, His eyes
were closed, and his face was cold.
There was no light in the car. Only a few street lights came in from the window and fell on his shoulder
from time to time, which made his expression obscure and his mind unpredictable. Somehow, Ivan felt
that Victor was a bit depressed after knowing that Joey was Odin’s son.
Withdrawing his gaze, Ivan turned on the test result again. Joey was three years old. If the child of Victor
and Rachel’s was still alive, it should also be three years old now. All of a sudden, Ivan understood why
Victor became so depressed. Perhaps he thought of that child again. With a sigh, he turned off the iPad
and looked out of the window.
A while later, the Maybach drove to an intersection. Not long after the car stopped, the green light turned
on and the car started again. Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, Ivan saw a familiar figure sitting in a
car that just passed theirs. He trembled. He sat up straight subconsciously and looked out.
Ivan wanted to see that person more clearly, but the car drove fast, before he could see clearly, the car
had already driven away. Through the rearview mirror, he could clearly see that the car they had just
passed by was a black Volkswagen. He looked at the car in the rearview mirror driving further and further
away and felt a little distracted.
On the back seat, Victor sensed his abnormality and raised his eyes. “What’s wrong?” Hearing that, Ivan
hesitated for a while. Maybe he was wrong? “Nothing, Mr. Sullivan.”
He said. Victor looked at him up and down with his deep eyes for a moment and didn’t ask any more
questions. “When will we arrive at the hotel?”
“In about five minutes.”
As soon as Ivan finished speaking, he saw that the Victor slowly closed his eyes again. Ivan narrowed
his eyes and couldn’t help but look out of the window at the rearview mirror again. He couldn’t see the
Volkswagen anymore. daily latest chapters only www.novelheart.com
The reason why he was so shocked just now was that he seemed to see Rachel in the Volkswagen But
Rachel had died four years ago. Four years ago, in the heavy rain, the scene of Victor kneeling beside
Rachel’s coffin was still vivid in his mind. How could a dead person appear here?
He couldn’t help laughing at himself. It must be because of the appearance of Joey that he thought of
Rachel and that child, so he had an illusion. But what he didn’t know was that… He was not wrong. The
woman sitting in the car was indeed Rachel. Rachel turned her head to look out of the window at the
scenery passing by, and wind gently blew her long hair. Four years had passed. She came back again.
“Boss, don’t worry.
I’ll keep an eye on Joe. He’s in the hotel room and didn’t go anywhere.” Quintin’s voice came from the
earphone. “Quintin.” Rachel said in a cold voice, “You’d better pray that I can bring him back safely.
Otherwise, you’ll have to go mining in Africa.” After saying that, the Volkswagen turned around at the end
of the road and drove towards the hotel where Joey was staying in.
