NovelAppWhen Rachel was done speaking, she heard a grating sound from the earpiece. She pulled it off from her ear and put it back on.
She then gently knocked on the earpiece
Quentin who was on the other end of the line, heard the knock He knew that it was not appropriate for Rachel to
speak at the moment, “Rachel, you askedthis morning to investigate Kyle and I found something about him,”
Quintin said “You guessed it right. Little is known about him. I searched the database of the alliance, but there’s still no
information about him. So, I thought of asking my friend to helpfind out things about him.”
Rachel lowered her head and looked at the screen. The screen was broadcasting a presentation Featured in the presentation
was the personal information of Kyle
Rachel already knew the information on the screen. This was the sinformation given to her by her assistant. But something
caught her interest a photograph Rachel clicked on it. It was a picture of Kyle on an ID card it looked like it was taken when he
had just graduated.
looked gentle, albeit a bit childish. Looking at the photograph, Rachel was reminded of seeing Kyle that afternoon
The man in the photograph was obviously the younger Kyle. Judging from his looks, it seemed that he had changed a lot
“But there is one thing that is strange” Quintin’s voice cthrough the earpiece, interrupting Rachel’s thoughts
Sensing the confusion in Quintin’s voice, Rachel looked away. It was rare for Quentin to feel strange about something Rachel
knocked on the earphone and told Quintin that she was still listening
“In October this year, Kyle was on a business trip when he happened to encounter a terrorist attack. When he was returning to
the hotel, he passed by a destroyed residential building Part of the wall fell and hit the hood of his car and broke the windows.
The car driver died on the spot and Kyle was seriously injured and hospitalized.”
Frowning, Quintin looked at the tdisplayed on the computer screen.
“I have checked his admission record. I’m sure that he was seriously injured at that tand he was in a coma for half a month.”
Rachel didn’t say anything. She just looked at the photograph. She knew what Quentin thought was strange.
“Despite his condition, Kyle was discharged from the hospital just a month after he caround from his coma. And soon after,
It was somewhat unbelievable that Kyle would be able to recover so soon from a serious injury.
But of course, it was not impossible. There were a few people who had strong self-healing abilities in the world. But the man in
the photograph didn’t seem to be one of them.
October...
A car accident...
Rachel had this indescribable feeling relating the man in the photograph with the Kyle she had seen earlier,
Her rumination was interrupted by the car stopping at the gate of Valmead Club.
“Miss Bennet, here we are,” informed the driver dutifully
Rachel knocked on the earpiece to say goodbye to Quintin. She hung up the phone, touching the button on the side of the phone
with her thumb and slightly pressing it down. She then locked the screen. After she and her assistant got out of the car, she
followed the waiter who cto welcthem into the club. They all went to the elevator that would take them to the banquet
hall on the sixth floor,
The elevator doors opened and Rachel saw men and women in the banquet hall happily talking to one another
As Rachel walked out of the elevator, she heard someone call out, “Miss Bentley.”
Rachel scanned the hall to look for the owner of the voice. She saw a man in a black suit talking to another man The man was
Kyle. He was standing sideways so Rachel could practically see only half of his face.
Moreover, Kyle was wearing sunglasses, which covered most of his face. Seeing Kyle, Rachel narrowed her eyes.
