Chapter 693 I Won't Forgive You

Seeing Rachel's cracked lips, Chandler quickly took out a bottle of water.

He poured a bit and dabbed it gently on her lips to moisten them. Then, he used a wet tissue to wipe the blood from her forehead. Last night, Rachel had begged Daniel endlessly, pleading for her life.

Blood had trickled from her forehead into her eyes, leaving a streak that made her look utterly defeated and blurring her line of sight.

"I think I'm not going to make it," Rachel murmured, her voice trembling with pain.

Her body ached unbearably, and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye.

"Chandler, I'm sorry for being such a burden to you all these years."

Chandler's expression softened as a hint of sympathy flashed through his eyes. "Don't talk like that. You're still young. You'll" be fine." He had grown up with Rachel, and seeing her in this state tore at

Rachel seemed like she wanted to say more, but exhaustion overwhelmed her.

She shut her eyes, longing for even a moment's rest.

Chandler frowned, unwilling to let her drift away. He nudged her, trying to keep her awake.

"Rachel, listen to me. Meryl gave birth last night. She's in the hospital now. I'm a father."

Chandler began chatting with Rachel, hoping the news would grab her attention and keep her conscious.

"But before the baby was born, Meryl was in a car accident. The child came early and is in an incubator now," he added.

Rachel's eyes fluttered open again as she processed his words.

She thought to herself, "Meryl had a car accident?

So Chandler left her to rescue me?"

Chandler's voice faltered for a moment before he continued, "Do you think Meryl will be disappointed in me when she wakes up and finds I wasn't there for her?

Chandler's bloodshot eyes betrayed his exhaustion. He hadn't 'slept since the night before, and the strain showed in every line on his face.

"I owe your brother my life. That's why I've taken care of you all these years. Rachel, I've always seen you as a little sister. Can you stop being so reckless from now on?" Chandler said earnestly. Rachel stared at him, her gaze unwavering as his words sunk in.

She thought bitterly, "Reckless?

Yes, if I hadn't been reckless, I wouldn't have been kidnapped and had a kidney taken."

Conflicted, Rachel couldn't help but reflect.
