One week later.

Lake followed General Ross from Texas and flew back to Quantico's military base again.

"Remember to keep this secret."

"……I know."

"I'm afraid you don't know."

“…”

When the plane was about to be at Quantico base, General Ross untied his seat belt and reached Lake's side, waking Lake, who was sleeping with a serious look on his face.

Lake opened his mouth.

General Ross said, "That Rachel of the Sun."

Lake said oh, saying, "Don't worry, I know what to say and what not to say."

Rose had no expression on his face: "I have other things to say."

Lake stood up and looked at General Ross with some suspicion. He didn't know if it was an illusion. It seemed that General Ross had stepped down at this moment and his adoptive father Ross was on the line.

What the hell?

Lake thought for a while: "The other things should be gone, are you talking about Betty and that Dr. Banner?"

"I'm talking about you and Rachel."

“…”

Ross shook his head speechlessly and said to Lake: "When you were attacked in Texas, I had sent someone to take Skye and Rachel to Quantico base to protect it. Karen already knew about Rachel. She was very angry, but she had been busy before, so I didn't tell you."

Lake grew up and said, "Karen knows...what?"

"What do you think?"

Ross glanced at Lake: "All things are still ten minutes to land now. Think about it carefully, how to comfort Karen, she is very sad."

After saying that.

Ross got up and was about to go to the cockpit to take a look, but he was muttering in his heart.

What did you know?

Good guy.

Isn’t it just that Rachel is pregnant? Isn’t this kid still has other little secrets in his heart?

Lake also looked at Rose's back, and his little thoughts turned sharply.

Did Karen know?

What?

Is Rachel pregnant?

Lake knew this, after all, Ross had already said it when he arrived from Quantico, so Karen knew that Rachel was pregnant, which was expected.

But...everyone knows?

Is Theron exposed?

Or was Emilia and his little cotton jacket also exposed?

Rebellious son?

That guy didn't count, he had no status in his heart. He was raised until he was twenty-one years old and kicked him out and let him die.

Lake's eyes flashed.

Inside the cockpit.

Ross is having a satellite encrypted call with Karen.

soon.

Ten minutes later.

The plane landed steadily at the airport of Quantico Military Base, which was rebuilt again.

Five minutes later.

Inside the hangar.

Lake lowered his head and thought, always feeling that Karen knew about Emilia and Little Cotton Jacket.

but……

Lake looked at Rose, who turned his head to look at him from time to time, seemed to have some mysterious smile, and always felt that there was this possibility.

Just then.

Rachel, not far away, looked at Lake who was walking off the plane, ran over and hugged Lake.

Lake came back to his senses.

Not far away.

Skye also pulled Rachel's adopted daughter Josie over.

Skye didn't just smile and greet Lake like Rachel.

Lake smiled back.

"Are you okay?"

"fine."

After Rachel let go of Lake, she said, "I'm worried so much these days, and then she gave me a passionate kiss."

Skye's mouth twitched, and then he pulled Josie, who was staring beside her, and turned around.

Hey hey hey hey.

There are two more underage here, so unrestrained, okay?

After more than ten minutes.

Base dormitory.

After Lake got off the car, he hugged Karen, who was standing at the door and waiting for him to come back, then looked around with guilt: "Where is Betty?"

Let's say so.

Lake can turn time around for Karen, but not necessarily turn time around for Rose.

Of course, this is just a metaphor.

Karen said: "I'm still in the lab, come in, I think we need a serious conversation."

Lake said, "I'm going..."

Serious dialogue.

This seems familiar, can you not go?

Karen interrupted directly: "It doesn't matter if you go later, Rachel, you can take your two children to the backyard first."

Lake looked at Rachel.

Rachel made a sorry lip sarcastic at Lake, and then shouted at Skye and Josie not far away, and took Skye and Josie into the house first.

Lake and Karen followed closely behind.

"Sit down, son."

"……Thanks."

Listening to Karen's serious words after entering the house, Lake felt weak inside and could clearly feel the sadness and disappointment conveyed by Karen?

Good guy.

Really exposed?

How could it be?

It's impossible, I'm doing a good job of keeping confidentiality.

"When did it happen?"

"ah."

Lake came back to his senses, looked at Karen sitting on the sofa opposite, and directly turned from prosecutor Karen to become a psychological counselor. He picked up the conversation book between Lake and Betty and raised his eyebrows: "You said Rachel, that's what we found when we were traveling to Los Angeles."

Karen nodded: "Why not say it?"

Lake's thoughts changed: "I want to say that, but after I came back from Los Angeles, I had this kind of thing. I originally thought about taking Rachel back this Christmas."

I'm so smart.

"real?"

"certainly!"
