Chapter 289

Adrian squeezed my hand. “As long as you’re okay.” Then he led us toward the exit. “Hello there.”

He smiled politely at Blake and Rachel. “Mr. Parker, Miss Hayes. I didn’t expect Dr. Clarke would arrange for you both to meet us.”

Blake was still on his phone, but Rachel waved and walked toward us.

“The Clarke family’s swamped today,” she said with a bright smile. “Picking up guests is the least we can do!”

She shook Adrian’s hand. “I’m Rachel Hayes. Heard a lot about you.”

“Adrian Knox,” he replied, then gestured to me. “My wife Evelyn Knox, and our daughter Emma.”

Rachel turned to me, extending her hand. “Mrs. Knox, you…”

The moment our eyes met, she froze. Her mouth opened and closed without sound.

I’d expected this reaction.

I shook her hand briefly, then pulled away. “Emma, say hi to the nice lady.”

“Hello! I’m Emma Knox!” The little girl’s sweet voice broke Rachel’s trance.

Rachel blinked rapidly, staring at my face. “Mrs. Knox,” she managed finally, her voice hoarse. “Have we… met before?”
