“Alright,” Lukas said.

Before he asked his next question, the driver looked up into the rearview mirror to try and gauge Victor’s mood from his expression.
In a casual tone he said, “Has Miss Bennet returned yet? She isn’t with Mr. Sullivan.”
Lukas’ eyebrows furrowed in confusion. He had thought that Mr.

Sullivan would surely drive Miss Bennet home since he was the one brought her out.
If Miss Bennet was coming back alone tonight, did that mean… Had something happened between the two of them during the day?
Lukas glanced at the steadily worsening weather. The thunder was booming all around the building now, and he could feel the temperature starting to drop. Miss Bennet was not safe out there on her own.
He couldn’t help but feel worried.
“Miss Bennet…” he muttered to himself, as if saying her name would help to keep her safe.
Suddenly, the doorbell outside Sue Garden rang.
Lukas turned to one of the servants and sent her to check who it was.
A few moments later, the servant returned.
“It’s Miss Bennet,” she said, her eyes wide.
“Go get an umbrella and pick her up.” Lukas completely forget he was still on the line. He wasn’t thinking properly at the moment.
The servant nodded, grabbed an umbrella and trotted out to meet Rachel.
Lukas was still on call when he’d spoken to the servant. The driver had heard every word. The cold, brooding atmosphere in the car immediately lifted.
The driver breathed a heavy sigh of relief when he finally heard Lukas say, “Issac, Miss Bennet just got back.”
“That’s good,” the driver answered then hung up the call.

But it was obvious from his actions that he cared for Rachel. And the driver knew Victor well enough to know that he hadn’t called the Sue Garden just to tell Lukas that he wouldn’t be returning; it had been to check if Rachel had got back safely.
The second Rachel stepped into the living room, a gust of wind blew past her. Night had fallen, clouds were looming in the sky, and she could hear the sound of rumbling thunder.
Lukas asked with concern, “Ma’am, are you alright?”
“Huh?” Rachel sounded confused.
“Why do you ask? I’m fine.”
“Aside from being flummoxed by Victor’s behavior today,’ she thought to herself.
