Chapter 125 I Missed You
Under the persuasion of Natalia and Rachel, Eric finally relented. “Fine, come to the law firm at nine tomorrow.
But just so you know, if you don’t pass the assessment, I won’t hire you.”
Sabrina’s face lit up with joy as she nodded eagerly. “Thank you! I’ll be there at nine sharp,”
She turned to Rachel and Natalia with a grateful smile. “Thank you both so much.”
Rachel smiled in return. “You’re welcome. By the way, Natalia might actually be younger than you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Natalia also responded with a smile.
Later, Rachel left with Jeffrey, and Eric offered to give Natalia a ride home.
As they drove, Natalia couldn’t stop staring at Eric, her curiosity nearly consuming her as she kept her gaze
fixed on him.
After a few minutes, he couldn’t take it any longer. “Do you have a question? Just ask.”
Natalia perked up, eager to know. “How did you know?”
“Your face says it all. How could I not notice?”
Natalia sat up straight and asked seriously, “Is Jeffrey really Rachel’s brother? Her biological brother?”
“Weren’t you seeing her as a rival? Why the sudden interest in her?”
“I just want to know what’s going on. Come on, tell me.”
“She’s my client, so I can’t get into her personal matters. But I can give you some basic details.”
A few minutes later, Natalia’s expression shifted from curiosity to sympathy. “Oh my, that’s awful! I can’t believe it. I didn’t expect her to have a brother like that. She’s really strong,”
she said, feeling a mix of pity and respect.
Eric shot her a glance. “What? You don’t want to see her as a rival anymore?”
Natalia shook her head quickly. “No way. A rival is a rival, but that’s a different matter. I’ll still compete with
her on equal ground.”
Since it was Jeffrey’s first job search and he’d encountered a major setback, Rachel didn’t want to pressure him
too much.
So, for the next few days, she allowed him to take it easy and rest.

The following day, Jeffrey brought up, “Rachel, I’d like to visit Selah.”
“Sure, I’ll take you there,” she responded.
When they arrived, Jeffrey quickly pulled out his phone. “Rachel, Kiss Day is around the corner. Since Brian isn’t around, maybe you could visit him and surprise him that day.”
Kiss Day? She blinked, unsure if she had heard correctly.
“When exactly is that?”
She had completely forgotten about it.
“It’s tomorrow.
But don’t worry about me. I’ll stay at the facility for a few days until you come back to pick me up,” Jeffrey
replied.
“Alright,” she said, nodding.
After leaving him at his destination, Rachel began looking up flight tickets.
Since Brian was abroad, Rachel found that the flight would take around ten hours.
If she left immediately, she could get there by tomorrow. But should she really go? She wasn’t certain if he was
expecting her or if he would be free or busy tomorrow.
Still, she thought, he should have time for dinner with her, right?
The thought that this could be their last Kiss Day together made her heart race with anticipation.
On her way back, she passed by a kissing couple, and felt a sudden longing for love.
Pulling out her phone, she couldn’t hold back any longer and dialed a number.
“Hello?” Brian’s voice came through, still drowsy, as the time difference had kept him asleep.
“Brian, are you tied up with work tomorrow?”
“A bit, but it shouldn’t be too much. Why do you ask?”
“Oh, nothing, really. I just miss you and wanted to hear your voice.”
After the call ended, Rachel wasted no time booking the quickest flight available. She packed her bags and made her way to the airport.
Everything went smoothly without a hitch. Just two hours later, she was on the plane, heading toward her destination.
The long flight allowed her to drift off to sleep for a while, catching up on rest.
When the plane finally touched down, it was already the next day, but luckily, it was still daylight.
As she stepped out of the airport and glanced around at the unfamiliar faces in the crowd, a sense of unease settled in, feeling out of place in this foreign land.
She had hoped to surprise Brian, so she first called Ronald, but there was no answer.

With no other options, she tried calling Brian, but he didn’t pick up either.
Feeling a bit lost, she wandered the unfamiliar streets, suitcase in tow, soaking in the sights and sounds of the
new culture around her.
Just as the sun began to dip below the horizon, her phone buzzed with a video call from Brian.
“Rachel, is everything alright? Why are you calling me in the middle of the night?” His voice held a note of
concern, as it was the dead of night back home.
“I’m not in the country,” she replied, quickly flipping the camera around to show him her surroundings.
Seeing her location on the screen, Brian’s urgency immediately kicked in. “Send me your location. I’ll be there
as soon as I can.”
“Got it.”
After sharing her location, Rachel waited for him, feeling a sense of relief.
Her only regret was that she couldn’t manage to surprise him like she’d planned.
By the time Brian arrived, Rachel was feeding the pigeons in the square. The white birds took off before her,
creating a beautiful sight.
She held out her hand, and soon a few brave pigeons flew over to eat from her palm.
Seeing her surrounded by the peaceful scene, Brian’s anxious heart eased for a moment.
He paused, not wanting to interrupt her.
It wasn’t until the last piece of food was pecked away by the pigeons that Brian finally stepped forward and stood quietly behind her.
After Rachel finished feeding the pigeons and was about to stand up, she felt her eyes softly covered.
The first thing she noticed was the warmth of his hands, followed by the comforting scent of him surrounding
her.
There was no question in her mind about who was standing behind her.
“Brian!” she said, turning around, her face lighting up with a smile.
She lifted her hands and gently removed his hands from her eyes.
“How could you be so sure it’s me?”
After being apart for a few days, his features looked even more striking, his jawline sharper, but his charm was unmistakable.
“I could never confuse your scent.”
Without a word, he pulled her into a tight embrace, his breath catching as he took in the familiar scent of her.
“I’ve missed you so much,” he whispered.
“I missed you too,”
Chapter 1251 Missed You
Rachel confessed, her voice soft but filled with emotion.
She wasn’t sure how many more chances she’d get to hold him like this and confess her feelings so openly, so
she wanted to make every moment count.
Brian cupped her face in his hands, his touch tender as he ran his thumb over her cheek. “Please say it again,”
he urged.
