Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Rachel's sudden blindness was just too convenient!

Meryl's first thought was that she must be faking it.

After all, Rachel had prepared fake blood before. What wouldn't she do for attention?

However, no one could say for sure how badly she was hurt after tumbling down such a long flight of stairs.

Meryl took a deep breath, forcing herself to reason.

Chandler frowned. "Meryl, why are you pushing me toward

another woman?"

But if she didn't suggest it, wouldn't Chandler see Rachel anyway?

Chandler took his debts of gratitude seriously. As long as Andy was in the picture, he'd never wholly abandon Rachel. Rather than having him sit here distracted, it was better to let him go to the hospital and put his mind at ease.

end. She won't settle down until you go," Meryl said before retreating to her room to rest.

The night was quiet enough that Meryl could hear Chandler in the kitchen, cleaning up the dishes and silverware.

Then came the sound of the front door closing.

He'd left just as she'd told him to.

Even though she was the one who'd asked him to go, her chest tightened with an inexplicable ache, as if a stone were pressing down on her heart.

Meryl wrapped herself in her blankets, biting her lip as she forced herself to close her eyes and try to sleep.

Chandler arrived at the hospital around 3 AM; he could hear the commotion from down the hall.

Rachel was having a meltdown on her hospital bed, throwing everything within reach onto the floor. "Why can't I see? Why am I blind? Where's Chandler? I need Chandler here!" The nurses tried to reason with her. "Ms. Morgan, it's the middle of the night. Other patients have complained about the noise. If this continues, we'll have to sedate you." The doctor had examined her but couldn't determine the cause. Some tests would have to wait until morning.

"I just spoke with the doctor. Your blindness is only temporary. It could clear up suddenly any day now." Rachel's voice cracked. "When will that be? Even the doctors can't say, can they? I know they're just saying that to make me feel better." Tears rolled down her face one after another. Her world was nothing but
