Chapter 621 She Disliked the Smell of Smoke

Throughout the day, until she left the hospital, Rebecca had been excited. Whether it was acquiring her own property or engaging in a lengthy chat with Zelda, everything had put her at ease. However, this sense of ease abruptly dissipated as she descended from the inpatient department. Rebecca hadn't anticipated encountering David here, and their eyes locked directly. It seemed David had just come out from a ward as well. He coincidentally arrived from the opposite elevator that opened simultaneously. As Rebecca took a step forward and raised her gaze, she met the well-dressed David on the other side. At that moment, the smile on her face vanished completely. In hindsight, she couldn't pinpoint the reason for her sudden change in demeanor. Similarly, David's countenance didn't look particularly pleasant upon seeing Rebecca. Rebecca was chatting animatedly with Nate just a moment ago, and in the next second, her entire expression became reserved. She acted as if she ha

Chapter 622 Tomorrow

Yet, the wind outside was brisk, and the idea of having an extra coat seemed reasonable. Before coming, Nate had reminded Rebecca to bring one. However, she found it troublesome and insisted it was just a short distance from the hospital to the car, so it wouldn't be necessary. Nate, after some consideration, agreed with Rebecca's reasoning. Little did they anticipate that running into David would cause an unexpected delay. Moreover, David had draped his coat over her shoulders, which made the idea of removing it in front of him appear disrespectful. Despite harboring some resentment toward David, Rebecca hadn't completely severed all ties with him. She sighed softly while tolerating the lingering smell of tobacco on the coat. She adjusted the ill-fitting areas and then looked back at David. "I wasn't aware that Maxwell would release me so easily. He showed me some things. Then, he informed Sam and the others. Coincidentally, they were all downstairs, so I just followed t

Chapter 623 Uncontrolled

"Shall we go?" Nate's eyes fell on the coat draped over Rebecca's shoulders. His strides halted as he posed the question. Although Rebecca was perplexed, she replied, "Of course. Why linger in the hospital? Are we savoring the breeze or what?" Nate chuckled. "I thought you were leaving with him, and you just swung by to give me a heads up." As he spoke, a hint of self-deprecation flickered in his dark eyes. On his way to pick up Rebecca from the old city, Nate already had a rough idea about what had happened at Maxwell's place. While Maxwell hadn't explicitly spilled the details, the morning call to Sam spoke volumes. It all revolved around the preceding events. Rebecca's safe release signified that Maxwell's mission was accomplished. Yet, Nate observed Rebecca engaging in conversation with David as if nothing significant had occurred. Their interaction flowed as if they were ordinary friends catching up. It seemed Maxwell's plan had fallen short, and the recordings

Chapter 624 I’m Sorry

The car abruptly came to a halt, which caught Rebecca off guard. Her body lurched forward due to the sudden inertia, but fortunately, the seatbelt pulled her back. "I'm sorry," Nate apologized immediately after realizing his impulsive behavior. "I couldn't control my emotions just now. It was my fault." For someone who spent day and night in the lab, dealing with mundane data, such an emotional outburst was a rare sight. It was not just Rebecca; even Nate himself felt a mix of disbelief and regret. Fortunately, the road was smooth. There weren't many vehicles around, and they happened to be at a red light intersection. So, there was no danger involved. Otherwise, he would be held responsible for any consequences. "It's okay, Nate," Rebecca reassured him. Her gaze shifted to the red light at the intersection as she calmed down. She waved her hand in response to Nate's apology. Perhaps Rebecca could understand the frustration Nate felt. After all, those things she could

Chapter 625 Aunt Becca

As compared to Nate, Rebecca was much closer to Sam and more comfortable in confiding in Sam. That explained why she felt safe telling Sam that she was going to see David.Moreover, there was nothing to hide about the nature of her visit. After hearing what Rebecca said, Sam gave his point of view.He calmly said, "Becca, I, as well as all your brothers, understand that you want to settle it once and for all with David. However, we still think it will be good if you let Cal accompany you while you do it. There is no need to go to Seabound Mansion either. You can meet with him at the mall, a cafe, or a restaurant. It will be good if you don't visit him at his mansion."For Sam, the mansion was a privately owned property.Entering the mansion would be like entering others' territories.If the purpose of visiting David was just to clear any misunderstanding, it was unnecessary to take the risk of entering his territory."But … I've already told him. Won't it be bad if I change m

Chapter 626 Unreasonable

Then, she would start wondering what these little kids had been fed. How could someone be that tall before they graduated from primary school?

If Felicia and all were here, there wouldn't be enough seats fo

Chapter 627 Good at Everything

Rebecca didn't stay in Ellen's ward for too long.One of the reasons was that they tended to quarrel a lot whenever they talked to each other. Ellen was in the hospital because of her, so it meant she couldn't quarrel with him since she was in the wrong, and there was nothing else left to say.Since they couldn't talk the way they usually talk, Ellen started complaining about his pain to Rebecca. Rebecca thought, "What a boring conversation."Ellen hadn't seen Rebecca act this patient before.

Chapter 628 Fell Silent

Rebecca didn't understand why Caleb would suddenly ask about her cooking. She didn't hide anything from Caleb and briefly told him about her life in Seardale. She did try to cook when she was overseas, but only when David was not around. If David found out she was cooking, he would surely think she would mess it up and even burn down the kitchen. After a while, even Rebecca started to believe that she would mess it up.Caleb was even more speechless now.Rebecca wasn't aware of Caleb's annoyance, and she kept on saying, "Cal, I actually thought my cooking was not bad." Caleb kept quiet.Rebecca said confidently, "I've never learned how to cook but I can cook pretty well. Am I not a genius? I will cook for you guys when I'm back home. What do you think?"Caleb looked at David who was now cooking in the kitchen. Then, he looked back at Rebecca and nodded. "Sure …"Unlike Rebecca, David wasn't a genius. His cooking skills were a result of practice.In the beginning, his co

Chapter 629 Confrontation

After a while, Caleb couldn't help himself but ask Rebecca what she thought about David.He heard from Sam that Maxwell had told Rebecca everything about David.However, looking at their interaction earlier, it was clear that there wasn't any awkwardness between them.If Rebecca had feelings for David … Merely thinking about the possibility of it made Caleb cringe.For now, the Johnson family thought that it would be better for Rebecca to go back to Daniel than for her to be together with this two-faced madman.He was quite a bad character before. Who knew if he had really changed or if he was just hiding his true intentions?That was why Caleb took the risk and asked Rebecca that question to clear any of his doubts.If Rebecca had feelings for David, he would have to think of a way to get her to forget that thought.If she had no feelings toward him at all, then that was the best-case scenario.As for Caleb's question, Rebecca had made it clear before.When Caleb asked again

Chapter 630 Rolling His Eyes

However, how could a coat compensate for their four years of friendship?David didn't care about the competition with Caleb at all.Rebecca simply wanted to move back to her own place. There was nothing wrong with that.The news just came too suddenly, but he would be able to accept it eventually. Moreover, when he thought about some other aspects, it made a lot of sense for Rebecca to move back.They weren't officially a married couple. It wouldn't reflect well on them if they kept living together.So, the matter was settled.Rebecca didn't expect it to go so smoothly.She thought it would create distance between her and David once she told him about it.At this moment, her good impression of David became even better. In the video, David was said to be a sinister guy. Now, it seemed like the information came from a rather dubious source. It was either that or that people really could change.Whichever Rebecca chose to believe, David would remain a good guy in her perspect
