Seeing this, Rachel breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she realized she had given herself away to warn him.
Instead of looking at the man on the floor, Victor turned to face her and took small steps towards her despite the pain. Rachel froze where she stood.
She pressed her lips together and tried to think of a plan. Suddenly, she said in a modulated voice, Mr. Sullivan, dont move. Youre bleeding
Who the hell are you? He examined her carefully as he strode towards her direction.
Rachel swallowed nervously.
Mr. Sullivan, I dont understand what you mean. I believe I already told you who I am. Im Dr. Turners assistant.

Victors intense gaze. She was so nervous that she couldnt help but purse her lips.
A sense of excitement rose in Victors chest, but he tried his best to suppress the urge to take off her mask.
He was scared.

Answer my question! When Victor took a step forward, Rachel retreated. No words came out from her mouth.
Soon, Rachel felt her back touch the wall. She was trapped now.
Victor was drawn into her familiar eyes. He couldnt be mistaken; they belonged to the woman he loved. Finally, he raised his hand to take off the mask covering the womans face.
But Rachel quickly looked sideways, dodging his hand. What she did only added to Victors suspicion. His cold fingertips landed on the mask.
One move and the mask would fall off.
What am I going to do? Rachel clenched her fists and held her breath as she thought of a way to escape.
