My Darling, My Dearest

Fearing that she could recall unpleasant things, Jack quickly explained, "I mean, I didn't really do nothing. In fact, in the days you didn't respond to me, I waited outside your house and watched you when you go to work. I just didn't know how to approach you."

And then she had flown to the neighboring province without him knowing.

At that moment, Jack regretted not approaching her sooner. If he had been able to apologize to her more openly, then he might have been able to stop her from heading to the neighboring province.

If not, then he might have also been there with her when it happened. She could've been saved sooner.

At this point, a myriad of thoughts flashed across his mind.

He sighed.

If he had apologized to her, would he have been able to stop her? Would he have been able to make it up to her?

There were just some questions that were left unanswered. With her condition, it was best for them to rely on each other from now on.

They were each other's saving grace, more so than either of them knew.

The Fu family made sure to not tell anyone about Rachel's state. They didn't want any reporters disturbing her as she inched towards her recovery.

Given her situation, she needed to stay in the hospital for observation regarding her memories.

Every day, whenever she woke up, she would always feel as if she had forgotten something.

It could be something major or minor, but either way, that feeling would always eat her up inside until she couldn't take it anymore.

However, on the eighth day, she didn't get that feeling anymore.

She waited for another four more days of observation.

After that, the doctor concluded that her memory deterioration had stopped.

The doctor analyzed that her memory was lost because of the trauma she had experienced after being buried for over twenty hours.

There were similar cases like this. Some of them could regain their lost memories, while the others couldn't. As the doctor had said, there was no clear cure for trauma. The best they could do was hope for the best.

As the next couple of days passed, Rachel got increasingly bored in staying here. After a detailed discussion, they all finally reached the conclusion that she could leave the hospital and go home.

She decided to quit her job after what had happened. She needed all the time to recover from the trauma and also her injuries. James had visited her twice when she was still in the hospital. Unfortunately, she had been asleep during those times.

When she arrived at Ninwell City, Jonathan made sure to block all people who intended to visit her, just so she could get some rest.

James was included.

He had been pacing with anxiety as to what had happened to her. It was a good thing that Jonathan called him regularly to update him of her recovery. When Jack called him about Rachel quitting her job, James was more than willing to agree. After what she had been through, it was the least she deserved.

All James could hope was that she could go back and work in the hospital once she had fully recovered.

As of the moment, he also had another problem on his plate. Right now, he had no idea where his son was.

His disappearance gave him a headache. His son, who used to be so calm and well-behaved, had become wicked and treacherous.

During Rachel's stay in the hospital, no one came to bother her. In fact, her regular visitors were limited to the Fu family and Eric. What she didn't expect was for two other people to come and visit her the day before she was announced to leave the hospital. They were Bill and Andy. Jack was also surprised by their appearance.

They actually went to the front desk asking for her.

When Jack knew that the man in front of him was the man who had been rescued by Rachel that night, he had a strange expression.

Andy and Bill didn't stay in the ward for a long time. Once they left, Rachel glanced at Jack. "I seem to know them, but I can't remember who they are." His heart ached as he explained to her how they met.

Although she wasn't losing her memory anymore, that didn't mean that she was regaining her lost memories.

The doctor still didn't know when she could be able to regain the lost memories.

Rachel's memory of Andy was blurred, but after what Jack had explained to her what had happened, she would never forget him again.

After visiting Rachel, Bill and Andy went back home.

It was actually not a coincidence that they visited Rachel. In fact, it was something they had planned a few days ago.

"Bill, she really is the intern back then," Andy commented.

Playing with the obsidian bracelet around his wrist, Bill curled his lips. "It should be her. I recognized her when she came to the hospital the other day." "Why didn't you tell me?"

He snorted. "And why would I tell you?" At that time, Bill didn't really care much other than the fact that he was afraid that his allergies could mar his face. He had been so worried that he didn't notice the people around him.

Although he found the woman to be familiar, he just couldn't recall why. It was when his face finally recovered that he remembered who she was.

As they talked about Rachel, Bill couldn't help but recall the first time he had seen her.

They were in Germany three years ago.

Back then, there was an intern who followed Dr. Fred around.

She was the one who had taken care of his cousin. Given that she was a woman with a good-looking face and an equally kind heart, she intrigued him.

When his cousin mentioned the intern by accident, he solidified Bill's views towards her.

At that time, his cousin's condition was not optimistic. In fact, his organs were already failing him during those times. Bill wanted to do everything he could to save him.

In fact, he even interviewed some of the staff about Rachel.

After learning she was single, Bill quickly informed his cousin, hoping that it would give him some hope to keep fighting.

When his cousin passed away that summer, Bill wanted to learn everything he could about the intern that his cousin liked so much.

It turned out she had left the hospital two weeks before his cousin passed away. Bill sighed.

After that, he didn't think of Rachel even once.

What he didn't expect was for her to leave the same impression to Andy.

All Andy asked was that Bill should pay the woman a visit in the hospital to show his gratitude.

Bill readily agreed, wanting to know if she really was the woman that had enamored his cousin three years ago.

However, just when they were about to visit her, they found that she had already gone on a business trip.

This was why Andy told him that they could visit her when she returned.

Bill could tell that Andy also felt like he owed her something.

However, both of them didn't expect that something bad would happen to her.

It took them a while to find out given that the Fu family had hidden the information so well.

Due to this, they delayed their plans to meet up with her.

However, Andy couldn't help but ask him about it every day. At this point, Bill couldn't help but wonder how serious her situation was. If she died, then it would forever become their greatest sore point. Because of this, they planned to go to the hospital to visit her.

She looked good. However, Bill couldn't help but gaze at her piteously when he found that she had her entire head shaved off.

No matter how beautiful a woman was, it was weird to see her without her hair.

However, Andy didn't pay attention to any of that.

"It's fate that we get to meet her."

Bill raised his eyebrows, ask if asking for more clarification.

Andy continued, "I don't know if you know this, but there was one time I visited your cousin. He was in pretty bad shape. If it wasn't for her, then your cousin would've died way before he was rescued." A playful smile edged into Bill's lips. "Well, it seems that we're destined to meet each other."

She was good-looking. It was a shame that she had to marry so early.

Andy didn't know what the other was thinking, but he nodded. "I hope that she will recover soon." The news of her hospitalization had been concealed from everyone. Even Michael and Marcus had no idea what had happened until a few days after she had been discharged from the hospital.

Jack didn't plan to keep it a secret from them. He was just so busy that he had forgotten to tell them about it.

During that time, he was too busy to engage with his friends.

Michael and Marcus had no idea what had happened to Rachel.

When they found out, they quickly planned to visit her as soon as possible.

The only reason why Henry didn't come to visit that time was because he had encountered some issues with his wedding.

The unlucky man was busy with his own problems to pay attention to what was happening around him.
