But now, that same cold-blooded, heartless man would drop his work and look for Rachel despite the heavy rain.

Victor probably hadn’t realized it himself, but he was slowly changing, and all those changes were caused by Rachel.
“Stop here,” Rachel said to Roger as she looked out the window and saw the Sue Garden’s iron gate nearby.
It was raining too hard, and she couldn’t hail a cab, so she accepted his offer of driving her back to the Sue Garden. However, if she went straight into the Sue Garden while she was in his car, it could breed unnecessary rumors. And so, with that in mind, she planned to get off the car and walk the remaining distance.
Roger saw that it was still raining cats and dogs, so he was a bit worried.
“Perhaps it’s better if I just drive you directly to the front door. It’s storming, Rachel, and the roads are slippery. You might stumble by accident, and I don’t want that on my conscience,” he said while glancing at Rachel’s belly; his eyes, brimming with bitterness.
“No need to bother yourself so much, Roger. I’ll be careful. Thank you,” Rachel replied, seemingly indifferent towards him. Then, she opened the door, held out her umbrella with one hand, and carried several bags with the other. Slowly, she walked towards the Sue Garden’s gate.
Roger didn’t withdraw his gaze even when Rachel was out of his sight.
The driver looked at him through the rearview mirror and asked respectfully, “Sir, shall we go back now?”
Only then did Roger slowly avert his gaze from the manor. He took out a small jewelry box from his pocket and opened it. Inside the box, a simple, yet exquisite ring rested. The diamond embedded into the middle of the ring glinted faintly under the dim sky. Before he came home, he bought this diamond ring. He had asked a famous designer to make this ring, and had it specially customized for Rachel.
Although he already found out from Clara that Rachel was pregnant, he still chose to bring the ring with him. He was hoping that Clara was just lying to dispel his intentions of proposing to Rachel.
But now, the last vestige of hope in his heart was dissipated. This ring would never even have the chance to meet its owner.

Slowly through the half-open car window, the rain drops fell on Roger’s face, making him feel cold.
Roger closed the small box, and then threw it outside. It landed on the lawn, and rolled for a while before it finally disappeared from his vision.
“Let’s go back,” he ordered while rolling up the window.
The driver wanted to say something, but when he saw the look on Roger’s face, he swallowed his words and nodded upon seeing Roger close his eyes. He then stepped on the accelerator, slowly turning the car around, and made his way to the Jimenez Mansion.
However, a few moments later, Roger suddenly opened his eyes.
“Stop the car!”
The driver immediately stepped on the brake. Roger got off the car, and ran back to the lawn without saying a word.
As soon as Rachel arrived at the Sue Garden, Olivia heard about it from the other servants. She had been jittery all this time, and now, she was finally at ease.
It was storming today, and if anything bad were to happen to Rachel because she asked her to do the grocery shopping, Victor would not even let her live through the day. When Olivia saw Rachel slowly walking towards the house, she was livid. She had been on tenterhooks for a long time, and she blamed Rachel for that.
As she stood at the door, scowling, she shouted at Rachel, “Rachel, are you a tortoise or something? I only asked you to do the grocery shopping. What took you so long? Don’t you know that everyone has been waiting for you?”
Rachel hadn’t even caught her breath, and Olivia had already bombarded her with snide remarks. Rachel did not utter a word, but he stared Olivia indifferently.
Stunned by her gaze, Olivia asked, “Why are you looking at me like that? Are you mad because I’m scolding you?”
“Not at all. Say whatever you want,” Rachel replied, and then she walked around Olivia, and into the house. She had no energy, nor interest in quarreling with this woman. ALL she wanted to do at the moment was to put her bags down and go to sleep as soon as possible.
