Aileen was born into a wealthy family and had long been influenced by the concept of social status.
She knew the one thing between her and Vulture was their social status. Moreover, Vulture had a
carefree and unrestrained character. It would probably be difficult for him to adapt to the Dickinson
family’s way of life.
This was also the reason Aileen did not dare to confess her feelings to him.
She thought since she could not get what she wanted in the end, it would be better to keep her feelings
a secret
As she was dwelling in her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang.
When Aileen saw that the call was from Vulture, panic flashed across her eyes. She looked helpless,
which was completely different from her usual spirited self.
Aileen did not dare to take the call.
She decided to hang up after some hesitation.
Aileen was already palpitating by then.
Not long after that, Rachel’s phone rang.
She raised her brows and glanced at Aileen. Then, she swiped the screen with her fingertips and
picked up the phone calmly.
“What is the matter?”
Vulture’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Is Nine with you?”
Knowing that Aileen was about to leave. Vulture went to Aileen’s place to send her off. Unexpectedly,
he received no response after knocking on her door for a long time.
Vulture guessed Aileen might have left without saying goodbye.
After all, it would be a little awkward for the two of them to meet again after what happened that night.
However, after some serious contemplation yesterday. Vulture felt that as a man, he should take
responsibility for bullying a lady
Vulture had initially planned to talk things out with Aileen, but he did not expect her to leave without
saying goodbye.
Rachel raised her eyebrows slightly She
Just as Rachel mouthed her words. Aileen grabbed Rachel’s hand and looked sorrowfully at Rachel
Aileen shook her head. gently as a way of telling Rachel not to expose her whereabouts.
Aileen did not want Vulture to know she was injured. She did not want him to feel guilty, nor did she
want him to be responsible for her out of guilt
Deep down. Aileen knew very well what she wanted.
“She has already left” Rachel changed her mind. She understood Aileen’s complex gaze and knew
what the latter wanted. When Vulture heard this, he fell into a short silence. He lit a cigarette and took a
deep breath. Vulture looked up at the hospital’s red cross sign and said calmly. I still want to talk to her,
but I do not know when I will meet her again”
Rachel said. “You will when the time is right.
“Yes, you are right. If you see her, ask her to take good care of herself, Vulture replied.
With that, he hung up.
Gloom could be seen in Rachel’s eyes.
She suspected Vulture knew something, but maybe not a lot.
With Lone Wolf’s capabilities, nothing could be kept a secret if Vulture wanted to know about it.
“W-What did he say?” Aileen’s voice was dry and tense.
She looked at Rachel nervously and with much anticipation.
“He told you to take good care of yourself”
Hearing this, Aileen nodded. However, the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. “Do
you think he knows about it?” she suddenly asked.
Rachel’s mouth curled into an intriguing smile. “Do you really think you can hide that from him?”
Aileen also knew very well that with Lone Wolf around, it would not be long till he found out about her
matters. He had a strong intelligence network.
However, she naively thought as long as she did not say anything, everything would be business as
usual.
“Why are you avoiding him” Rachel asked. “He genuinely wants to talk to you.”
Aileen’s eyebrows twitched, and her pupils quivered. “Some feelings cannot be forced”
She knew that she did not have Vulture’s heart.
What Aileen wanted was neither guilt nor compensation from Vulture but his reciprocating feelings.
Yet. Aileen knew very well that if he did not have the same feelings toward her, no matter how much he
said or did, she would never get the love she longed for.
If that were the case, expressing her love would only bring her sadness.
She took a deep breath and regained her positivity. Alright, Rachel, you should not be staying by my
side and watching over me. Go do what you have to do.”
“Tm fine Rachel handed Aileen a peeled apple.
Aileen took it and bit into it. “You really do not have to be so worried about me. I know myself and the
pain I am going through well enough”
The bullet would torture Aileen every second of her life. She could either leave it in her body and
eventually die with it or had it taken out, and she would spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair
Although neither outcomes were ideal, Aileen much preferred the former.
Thinking about how she was in her prime but had to spend her life in a wheelchair, Aileen would rather
die
Rachel knew what Aileen needed now was personal space. The former simply stood up and said. “I
shall come and see you
tomorrow.”
“Okay”
After Rachel left the ward, she took out her phone and called David.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up.
“Hello” David’s voice was deep and cold on the other end of the line.
“Are you still busy? Rachel asked.
“I have some problematic matters on hand. Maybe you would prefer heading back to Sandalwood Hills
first?”
Rachel hesitated slightly before saying yes.
After hanging up the phone, she smiled in a guileful manner.
It seemed like Rachel was hiding something from Aileen again.
She walked towards the parking lot, opened the car door, and got into the car.
Rachel was not in a hurry to start the engine. Instead, she looked at Ronnie through the rearview
mirror.
The moment she looked up, her eyes met Ronnie’s. Her heart skipped a beat and a faint but coy smile
crossed her face. “I wonder what brings you here to see me today, Mr. Dickens?”
The man has an affinity for white suits. Coupled with his curly brown hair, he did not look too different
from an ancient Grecian beau
The shadows from the dim light in the car accentuated Ronnie’s exquisite facial features, especially his
eyes, which looked like the perfect masterpiece God created.
The collar on Ronnie’s shirt was slightly open, revealing his tanned skin. The structure of his collarbone
was faintly visible. and Rachel could vaguely see the tattoo under it–“I AM THE DEVIL”
Ronnie had a face as beautiful as an angel, and labeling himself as the devil was pretty ironic.
He crossed lus legs and rubbed the bone ring on his thumb with his fingertips. A tinge of doting
affection could be seen in his usual icy stare “Miss Grey, your intelligence is really a rare gem.”
Rachel frowned slightly. “You came here just to tell me this?”
“I am here because I need your help. I need you to stay with me in the car for around half an hour to 40
minutes, just the two of us, Ronnie told her what he wanted her to do.
Rachel felt suspicious when she heard that.
She found Ronnie’s request ridiculous.
Ronnie seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He smiled faintly and said, “Stay with me for 40
minutes. That is the biggest favor I would ever ask from you. Trust me,”
Rachel raised her eyes and glanced at him through the rearview mirror.
