"I..." Andy was stunned for a moment.

Rachel observed his expression, and then she suddenly remembered the car she saw while she was on the balcony earlier. "Were you looking at the car parked by the gate?" she asked tentatively.

"Wait, you knew about it, Miss Bennet?" Andy replied, visibly shocked.

"Knew what?" Rachel raised her eyebrows. "You mean the car outside? Yep. I saw it upstairs earlier, but I didn't know that you were looking at the car earlier. I was just guessing, but it seems like something did happen."

"Miss Bennet, you…" Andy didn't know what to say at this point. Seeing her reaction now, he realized that it seemed like he had fallen into her trap.

"Who's in the car?" she asked.

Andy pursed his lips, staring into her eyes. He couldn't bring himself to answer the question.

Rachel wasn't in any hurry, so she took a sip of water and replied, "If you don't tell me, then I can only assume who it is."

Still, he remained silent. But upon hearing her words, his eyes fell on her.

Rachel lowered her gaze and stared at the water in the glass. After a while, she said, "I'm guessing the person in the car is definitely not here to see you."

"What makes you say that?" asked Andy.

"If that person is here for you, they should've investigated you. That way, they would know that it would be easier to find you by just waiting at your studio. So, I'm assuming the car isn't here for you. We're the only people in this house. Whoever that person is outside, they are here for me. Is my assumption correct?"

Rachel wasn't asking, she was merely stating a fact.
