BOOKSDRAMA Requiem of a Broken Heart
"But-"
Seeing Doris's name on the screen, Rachel hesitated, reluctant to pick up. Yet, after noticing the repeated calls, worry crept in. Something might be wrong. With a sigh, she finally answered.
The moment she picked up, a panicked voice filled the line. "Brian? Finally! We've all been worried sick. Grandma was just rushed to the hospital!"
Unaware that Brian himself had been hospitalized, Doris spoke with an urgency that carried no hesitation. Had she known, she might have chosen her words more carefully.
"Hospital? We'll head there now," Rachel asked without hesitation.

A brief silence followed before Doris responded, "Rachel? Where's Brian?"
"He's with me. Just tell me where, and we'll be there soon."
"Alright." Once the call ended, Rachel paused for a moment before deciding to tell Brian. After all, it was his grandmother-he had a right to know. And this wasn't something she could or should keep from him. Yet, an unshakable unease crept over her, making her eyelid twitch involuntarily.
The moment Brian heard, he made his decision instantly. "We're going."
"Help me get dressed. We're leaving now."
Rachel hesitated, her concern obvious. "But your wound... I heard it reopened today. If you go like this, Carol will only worry more. Let me go first and check on things, then I'll update you."
But Brian was firm. "I won't feel at ease until I see her myself."
Once he was dressed, they stepped out of the elevator, and without hesitation, Brian reached for Rachel's hand.

Chapter 584:
"Just for a moment... let me hold you," Brian murmured as he pulled her into his
arms.
Her soft scent filled the space between them, unexpectedly soothing him, making his eyelids grow heavy.
The truth was, he hadn't had a proper night's sleep in days.
With Brian seemingly calmer, Rachel remained still.
But the sudden, urgent ringing of a phone shattered the silence. Brian ignored it at first, but the caller was relentless.
"You should pick up. It might be urgent," Rachel suggested gently.
"But-"
