NovelFinishChapter 522: Debby seized the moment, looking Brian straight in the eye. "Brian, are you really going to marry someone as selfish and heartless as her?" Doris lowered her gaze, biting her lip as if holding back tears. “Brian, thank you for what you did just now." "If you ever need my blood," she continued, glancing at Rachel, "no matter what she does, I'll always be here for you." Rachel couldn't help but chuckle. "Doris, your loyalty runs deep, I see." With that, she turned and walked out, no longer interested in their theatrics.
Carol was the only thing on her mind. Whatever anyone thought of her didn't matter. Even if the whole world misunderstood her, it didn't change her priority.
She could only pray that Carol would wake up.

"Thankfully, the blood transfusion was timely. The patient is out of danger and has been moved to a ward." A wave of emotion crashed over Rachel. Tears welled in her eyes. "Thank you, doctor. Thank you so much." Everyone hurried to the ward, but they kept their voices low to avoid disturbing Carol's rest.
At spoint, Brian stepped out.
Rachel assumed it was for work, but when she headed toward the restroom, she spotted him in the hallway.
He sat with a slight hunch, his exhaustion evident in every line of his posture. The confident and sharp person he used to be was gone, replaced by someone who seemed completely defeated.
Right now, he was just an ordinary man.
Rachel paused. She knew exactly what was going through his mind. He was blaming himself for missing the calls, for not being there when Carol needed him most.

Given where they stood now, showing concern would only cross a line. Besides, he had surely overheard her refusal to donate blood earlier. After everything they had been through, there was no doubt he had misjudged her-perhaps even resented her for it.
Explaining herself had never done much good between them. So, there was no point in trying to clear things up now. Without another word, Rachel walked past him and kept going. But just as she moved past, a firm yet gentle grip closed around her wrist, stopping her in her tracks.
In a rough, quiet voice, he murmured, "Rachel... thank you."
Her head snapped up, eyes widening in shock as she stared at him. "What did you just say?" she stammered. He hadn't misunderstood her, and he was thanking her?
Brian's gaze was unwavering as he said with conviction, "I know everything. You were the one who were t acted fast and got my grandma to E the hospital. If you hadn't, I don't even want to think about what would have happened. Because of you, she's still alive." Brian's voice was steady, his gaze filled with sincerity.
Rachel cast her eyes downward. "No need for thanks. I didn't do it for you. Carol's always been kind to me. I couldn't just sit back and let anything happen to her."
