Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 118

The more afraid you were of something happening, the more likely it would happen. The more you wanted others to keep a secret, the more likely this secret had already spread without your knowledge.

Joy wasn’t great at keeping secrets. Thus, this caused Rachel to drag her husband over early in the morning to bring two insulated lunchboxes to see her son.

Yesterday. Joy had promised Hackett she would keep it a secret. In a way, she had fulfilled her promise. After all, Hackett had not told Joy how long she had to keep the secret. Joy had held onto it for the whole night until she could no longer hold it back and called Rachel. Joy had even explained the situation more drastically than it was.

Rachel was so anxious that she immediately dragged her husband, who was about to go to the office, to the hospital. When Rachel arrived at the ward and realized it was not as severe as Joy had said, Rachel heaved a sigh of relief. Her husband’s car accident had already exhausted all her energy and resilience. If it happened with her son again, Rachel did not dare to imagine it. There was a high chance that she would break down.

Although Rachel seemed strong on the surface, no matter how strong and decisive she was, she was still a woman and had her weaknesses. Everyone had weaknesses. Of course, Rachel was no exception. No one was Iron Man. They were all made of flesh and blood.

As soon as Caleb entered the room, he sized up his son from head to toe. When Caleb realized that there was nothing serious, he slowly sat on the sofa Rachel carefully placed the breakfast she had brought on the table.

Trevon had known that Hackett was unreliable. If Hackett could be relied on, pigs would be able to fly. However, Trevon spoke normally. Tmn fine. You didn’t have to come.”

Rachel was still busy helping Trevon adjust the blanket at his feet and said with some distress, “How can we not come when you’re hospitalized? At the very least, we need to see that you’re okay to be at ease. Hurry and eat.”

Trevon slowly ate the breakfast that Rachel had brought Rachel’s heart still ached. “Why didn’t you tell us that you were sick? If not for Hackett’s mother, we wouldn’t have known. You weren’t planning to tell us, and you didn’t hire a caretaker. Is it just Jim taking care of you?”

Trevon didn’t show much emotion. “It’s nothing serious. I’m not used to being taken care of by outsiders.”

Caleb glanced at his indifferent son. “Then Mr. Hawk will have to work harder. A concussion is not something to be taken lightly.”

After thinking for a while, Caleb could not help but remind Trevon, ‘Since you’ve been hospitalized, I think you’ll be here for at least a day or two. Use this time to think about how to apologize to that girl. Stalling won’t solve any problems.”

Trevon was slightly stunned. Then, he said indifferently. “Okay”

Caleb had said what he needed to say, so he didn’t continue.

Rachel sighed quietly to herself Rachel was a little anxious but could not interfere with her son’s relationship. If she interfered too much, her son would be resistant. Rachel still could not understand why Trevon liked that girl. Whether it was her behavior or her family background, there were plenty of other girls in Athana who were better than her.
