Chapter 109 Went to Find Rachel
“How long will it take?” I was impatient, not having much patience.
“Half an hour!” A deep, magnetic voice sounded from behind.
Alexander and I turned around together to look back. Seeing the man behind us, I frowned and couldn’t
help but exclaim, “William!”
Hearing me call his name directly, William’s eyebrows raised, a helpless smile appearing on his
handsome face that bore a striking resemblance to Walter’s. “Tabatha,” he said, “this is the first time
you’ve called me by my name so directly.”
Realizing that my previous reaction was somewhat rude, I quickly changed my address and said,
“Brother, I’m sorry, just now…”
“It’s fine, it’s rare for you to address me like this, quite refreshing.” William spoke, smiling gently. “What
happened? Walter just went in to apply medicine, he won’t be out for a while. If there’s anything, you
can talk to me.”
Looking at the face in front of me, which resembled Walter by about seventy to eighty percent, I was Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
momentarily at a loss for words. William was the son of the Hinton family’s second uncle, only a few
months older than Walter. Over the years, he had been managing the Hinton family’s business abroad,
only returning home for a few days during holidays or elder’s birthday celebrations.
This time it was Carley’s birthday feast, so, he came back for the second time.
Seeing me silent for a long time, he gave a faint smile, “What’s wrong? Is it inconvenient to talk?”

I shook my head slightly, took a breath and said, “No, it’s just that I said, big brother might not be able
to help either.”
He raised an eyebrow, his thin lips curling up, “That’s true, but Walter just went in, I’m afraid it might
take a while, you might have to wait.”
I nodded, taking a slight breath.
Looking at Alexander, he said, “You go to the Conner Group, find. Cory, ask him to send someone to
the southern district to inquire about any casinos, especially the more active ones recently, preferably
high- end ones.”
Alexander furrowed his brows, “What happened? Suddenly thought of the casino?”
I told him about the possibility that Rachel might have been taken away by Henry. He was taken aback
and said in surprise, “Why are you only telling me this now? How long has it been?”
So many things happened last night, many of which, even I didn’t expect.
He didn’t say anything more to me either, and hurriedly turned around to leave the hospital.
I stood there, stunned, a sharp pain in my chest. I had never imagined that Ashley would set such a big
trap for me, let alone that I would lose control of my emotions and lose my own child.
At this point, all I hoped for was that Rachel wouldn’t get into any more trouble. Otherwise, I really
wouldn’t know what to do.
“Tabatha?” William looked at me, lowering his voice to speak.
I snapped back to reality, somewhat ungracefully wiping away my tears, and looked at him, asking, “Big
brother, what… what happened?”

He paused, looking at me and said, “Are you looking for Henry?”
I nodded, looking at him with some confusion, and asked, “Do you know Henry?”
William nodded slightly and smiled, “A few years ago, the Hinton Group took over several development
projects in River City. I had some contact with him, so you could say we know each other. When I
heard you mention looking for a casino earlier, I do know a place in the south. However, it’s a closed-off
area, not accessible to ordinary people. Only those with status can get in.”
Hearing this, I was taken aback and quickly looked at him, saying, “Then, can you tell me the
address?”
He hesitated for a moment, looking at me and said, “Well, I’ll take you there, maybe I can help.”
I was somewhat surprised, I didn’t expect him to take action. After all, having been married to Walter
for two years, the number of times I had seen William could be counted on one hand, and the time we
had to chat was even less. We had hardly ever had a private conversation, apart from greetings and
polite inquiries, we basically had no other interaction.
He offered to help, which surprised me.
After a moment of hesitation, I looked at him and said, “I’m not holding up your other things, am I?”
He smiled lightly, his usual gentle demeanor as smooth as jade, saying, “You know I don’t have much
to do back home. After my
grandmother’s birthday, we’re just idle when we return to our country. I’d be honored to help you.”
Hearing him say this, and thinking about Rachel’s unpredictable situation, I didn’t care about anything
else. I looked at William and

said, “Brother, could you please take me to the casino you mentioned?”
He nodded, just about to leave with me, but his gaze turned towards the operating room, hesitating, “If
we leave, what about Walter…”
He didn’t finish speaking. After a pause, he took out his phone from his pocket and made a call. The
call was answered in no time.
Not knowing what was said on the other end, he was seen speaking. into the phone, “Zhiyi, come to
the hospital immediately. Walter is hospitalized and someone needs to be here with him. I have
something to do and need to go out for a while.”
