Chapter 304
“Don’t worry. Rachel will definitely wake up,” William murmured as he stared at Rachel lying in the bed. An oxygen mask covered her face.
Sasha and Jim packed up before leaving the ward.
Once they exited through the back door of the hospital, Jim let out long sigh.
“When you get the chance, call Yvette and tell her to head home,” he said. “And make sure she keeps her mouth shut. Whatever happens, she can’t breathe a word of this to Thomas.”
“Got it,” Sasha nodded, then hesitated. “But Jim, earlier, why did you say that in front of William? That if Rachel really goes into a coma, and the Lewis family doesn’t want to take care of her, we’d take her back?”
Jim turned to her with a puzzled look. “What are you trying to say? Don’t tell me you’d rather leave Rachel out there with no one to care for her?”
Sasha froze for a second, realizing her words had been too obvious. She quickly tried to backtrack.
“No, Jim, you misunderstood me. That’s not what I meant. I just think Rachel offered her youth to William. She married into the Lewis family. She’s their daughter–in–law. Why should they get to walk away?”
Jim wasn’t one to force things. “You saw for yourself how that mother–in–law of hers treats her. If Rachel really ends up like that, do you honestly think she’d let someone in a permanent coma stay in their house?”
“But Thomas won’t agree with this either. Rachel’s adopted, after all. If she ends up in a coma and we bring her back to the Lloyd family, what will people say? Can you win an argument against Thomas?” Sasha asked.
Sasha’s words made Jim pause in thought.
He waved his hand in frustration. “Forget it. We’ll cross that bridge when we get there. Rachel might wake up tonight for all we know. Melanie must be up there watching over her.”
Once in the car, Sasha sent a message to Yvette.
[Rachel’s alone with William right now. Do whatever it takes to get him out of that ward.]
Yvette still seemed hesitant. After all, this wasn’t just a dirty trick. They were gambling with Rachel’s life.
[Can’t we just wait a little longer? What if she ends up in a coma on her own? Then we don’t have to do anything.]
Seeing that message nearly made Sasha curse aloud. No wonder Tyler didn’t want her. She was such a useless coward.
Sasha quickly replied while Jim had his eyes closed for a nap.
[Fine, then wait. And when she wakes up and marries Tyler instead, you can have whatever’s left. Your choice.]
After sending the message, Sasha immediately cleared her chat history.
This was the perfect chance to get rid of Rachel, and Yvette didn’t even have the guts to act.
Sasha had originally thought maybe Rachel being part of the Lewis family could help her son in the future, but thinking about the way Rachel had treated her? Forget it.
Rachel was a pawn she couldn’t use and was better off discarded.
Inside the ward, William sat by Rachel’s bedside, gently holding her hand in his. He leaned down and pressed a kiss to the back
of her hand.
“Rachel, please wake up. If you don’t, I’ll be the one the Lloyd family blames. I’ll be the enemy of all of Yurelia City,” he said

exhaustedly. “You love me the most, don’t you? You won’t just sit here and watch me fall like this, right?
“I’m not as terrible as the internet says I am, am I? It’s just, latelyve been distracted. Maybe I’ve neglected you, but I promise, once you wake up, I’ll make it up to you. Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you. Just please come back to me.”
William didn’t notice it, but the fingers of Rachel’s right hand moved a little.
