Chapter 1600
“Who’s your boss?” Rebecca finally asked.
“Mr.
Gibson the man said and gestured the car to her.
“Please,
Miss Bennet.”
As the Maybach stopped beside the road, Rebecca glanced through the car window and found the man sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed.
Despite the mask, the contours of his face could be seen from the side.
He had long eyelashes and thin lips, which were half
-closed.
He looked cold and approachable.
Judging from the man’s demeanor, Rachel could tell he was Alberto
Gibson, who suddenly flew home from Zurich to see a doctor.
However, shouldn’t Alberto be in their family’s mansion? Why was he here? Moreover, according to his schedule, he should be arriving tomorrow, not today.
Was the schedule wrong?
But Rebecca got it from Alberto’s brother, so it should be correct.
If so, perhaps Alberto changed it at the last minute, and no one from his family knew.
When the driver opened the door to the backseat and looked at her,
Rachel decided to accept the offer and hopped in.
After all, this legendary sick man had already piqued her interest.
After Rebecca got in, the driver gently closed the car door and returned to the driver’s seat.
The man outside, who seemed to be the assistant, opened the door to the passenger seat and got in.
The man looked at Alberto through the rearview mirror, and before he could ask, Alberto said in a deep but hoarse voice, “Go to the
Bennet family’s residence.”
The man nodded, indicating the driver to take off.
Hearing Alberto’s voice, Rachel couldn’t help but turn to him in surprise.
His voice sounded familiar.
Alberto didn’t say anything more, let alone say hello to Rachel.
He kept his eyes closed and didn’t put any mind on her, as if he just wanted to give her a ride home and get it over with.
The Maybach moved slowly down the highway.
The rain was pouring and soaking the car window with heavy raindrops.
Rachel still couldn’t get Alberto’s voice out of her mind.
Wanting to confirm something, she broke the silence and said, “Thank you, Mr.
Gibson.”
