Chapter 1698 Both of Them Knew
It was Rachel.
Elisa immediately picked up.
Before Elisa could say a word, Rachel said, "Damn it! I finally got rid of Vincent. He's so annoying!
Sticking to me like gum in my hair!"
Elisa stifled a laugh. "You were the one who used his name in the first place."
To be honest, Elisa was perplexed when she heard Rachel's reasons.
She didn't think Rachel would go to such lengths.
"I wanted to make it convincing! I sacrificed myself to trick Linda into meeting with her father! I can't
believe how selfless I am being so that father and daughter can reunite! Linda should thank me!"
Elisa couldn't help the laughter bubbling out from her chest. "Don't you think she'll suspect us after

"Huh?" Rachel didn't understand.
Elisa calmly answered, "She's not stupid. You tricked her into coming to the hospital with you and even
led her to the wrong ward. You told her about Norman's health issues. She might have been too
worried to realize at the moment, but don't you think she might think back and realize we showed her
the way?"
"Oh no!" Rachel started to worry. "Did I go too far? We knew her true identity, but she didn't know that
we knew. She might do things we could prevent, but now… Both of you are aware of the other. Did…
Did I ruin your plans, Elisa?"
Rachel stammered like a child with her hand caught in the cookie jar.
Elisa smiled. "I wouldn't have let all this happen if it would ruin things. Tricking her into going to the
hospital was so I could confirm if she truly was Linda."
"Huh?" Rachel was more confused than ever. She gripped the phone tightly. "What do you mean?"
"I didn't want to involve an innocent in this. It would be terrible if I made a mistake and hurt the real
Melinda."
"I see!" Rachel let out a sigh of relief. "That's good, then. I thought I made a mistake. But now that she
knows, you know… It might not be as easy to deal with her in the future."
"She'll still try to lure me into a trap even after knowing that I know who she is. She'll make even more
mistakes and reveal herself even more. It makes things much easier for me." Elisa explained. The light
turned green. Elisa switched the phone to speaker mode and put it to the side.
She had deliberately turned the car's Bluetooth off because Linda was around.
"Really? I hope you'll be careful. I'm afraid she'll do something extreme when she knows we're testing
her. Oh, that's right. Didn't you say there was someone controlling things behind the scenes? Do you
know who it is?"

"Huh? Who is it?"
Elisa kept her attention on the road and took her time to respond. "You don't know them. I'll tell you
next time. I need to take care of some business. Talk to you soon."
"Oh, alright. Drive safe."
"Okay."
They hung up without another word.
An hour later.
Elisa arrived at her destination.
Leaving the hospital and dropping Linda off took her some time to arrive there finally.
She sat in the car, in no hurry to get out. Elisa made a phone call.
He picked up almost immediately.
