'This bloody asshole!

He plays tricks on her again,' Rachel cursed inwardly.

Before she could totally lost her temper, Jack suddenly returned to his serious look and walked to the

bathroom. "I'm going to take a shower."

She was annoyed but amused by his words at the same time.

He threw his shirt into the trash bin, walked into the bathroom and turned the shower on.

Soon enough, the bathroom gradually filled with mist.

When he came out of the bathroom, Rachel was already lying in the bed. She covered her mouth and

yawned. Jack immediately lay down beside her and wrapped his arm around her waist.

With eyes wet from yawning, Rachel asked in an exhausted tone, "What are you doing?"

"Sleep."

Jack felt so warm with her presence. Suddenly, he realized something.

If he and Rachel got divorced, it would be impossible for him to win her back after all the things he had

done to her over the years.

Before falling asleep, he had decided to cancel the divorce agreement in a few days.

Finally, Rachel was able to get a chance to meet Lea. Instead of going somewhere, she decided to just

invite Lea to her house since she also hadn't gone home for several days. Anyways, she only needed

to do a little house cleaning before Lea arrived.

Nearly half an hour later after she finished cleaning, Lea knocked on her door.

When Rachel opened the door, she was so surprised, mouth agape with incredulity. The Lea in front of

her looked so different. She looked pale, her lips were dry, and her eyes were weak. Was she seriously

ill?

Rachel was so startled. She wondered if something bad had happened between Lea and Henry.

But thinking about how much Henry loved Lea, she discarded that idea in her mind.

Lea came in and sat on the couch. She leaned against it, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Rachel, I'm so exhausted. Can you give me a glass of water?"

Rachel immediately turned to the table. When she was about to pour a glass of water for her, Lea

suddenly sat up and shouted, "Oh, shit! I sit too hard just now."

Seeing that Lea was in panic, Rachel handed a glass of water to her. With a worried look on her face,

she asked, "What's wrong with you? You don't look good."

After flopping down on the sofa earlier, Lea suddenly remembered that she was currently carrying a

child in her belly. She must be extra careful now.

What if she accidentally hurt her baby?

She subconsciously put her hand on her belly and caressed it gently, as if comforting the frightened

little baby inside.

Looking at her gesture, Rachel thought Lea was in her period.

"Dysmenorrhea? I'll make you some red date tea." Rachel stood up to go to the kitchen but Lea pulled

her back.

She drank some water and said, "There's no need for that. Sit down first, I need to tell you something."

As Rachel sat back, she asked again, "What's wrong with you? You look awful."

Upon hearing Rachel's question, Lea raised the glass to her mouth again and drank slowly. When she

was about to speak, her nose instantly smelled something.

She sniffed and asked Rachel, "What are you cooking?"

All of a sudden, Rachel remembered that she was still cooking some soup in the kitchen.

She actually prepared some food because she had planned to have lunch with Lea and invited Eric to

join them.

Her purpose was actually to tell Lea and Eric about what was going on between her and Jack.

She chose to invite them over to her house and have a talk with them while eating lunch so they could

be less impulsive when they found out the truth.

However, Rachel didn't know that Lea would have a more explosive revelation today.

Lea's eyebrows were drawn together in a grimace. Obviously, she was disgusted with the smell from

the kitchen.

Her stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable. She tried to calm herself down and prayed silently, 'Not now,

please.

I don't want to throw up in front of Rachel. Baby, please behave inside.' She felt like was going to die.

"When have your nose become so sensitive?" Rachel asked in surprise.

She actually couldn't smell anything. After all, the kitchen door was closed.

Lea seemed to have a nose of a dog.

Rachel then told Lea about the lunch she planned. "Let's have lunch together. Eric is also coming to

bring your favorite dishes."

Lea's facial expression immediately changed.

Apparently, Rachel had no idea what she had gone through these past two days.

The moment she found out that she was pregnant, the baby inside her belly had started to cause

trouble. She felt like dying all the time.

She couldn't control her vomiting. It just happened any time of the day, especially when she smelt

something unpleasant to her nose.

Her taste had also changed. She started to hate all the food that she used to love before.

At the moment, she only liked something sweet, sour, and cold.

She was craving for plum soup, plum tea, and orange.

This was normal for pregnant women. She had read a lot of magazines and watched TV shows related

to pregnancy.

At first, she thought it was just manageable. But now that she was experiencing all of it, her life felt like

hell.

Rachel stood up and went to the kitchen to check the soup. When it was ready, she unplugged the pot.

She went back to the living room and sat beside Lea again. To her surprise, Lea stood up and rushed

to the bathroom while covering her mouth.

Rachel reacted quickly and followed her. When she was about to open the bathroom door, she heard

the sound of Lea's vomiting.

Although she was a doctor, she was not a gynecologist so pregnancy didn't cross her mind.

She just thought that Lea had a stomach problem like Jack.

She opened the door and trotted through the bathroom. She saw Lea leaning against the sink and

vomiting with all her might.

Feeling sorry for her friend, Rachel walked up to her and massaged her back. "What have you eaten

today? Does your stomach hurt?"

Rachel knew that there were many causes of vomiting. Seeing Lea's situation now, she thought that it

would be better to take her to the hospital.

When Lea felt a bit better, Rachel helped her back to the living room.

Lea leaned weakly against Rachel and said, "I haven't eaten anything yet." Then she retched again.

Rachel wanted to help her go back to the bathroom but she refused. "You're acting so weird. I don't

know what's going on with you. I have to bring you to the hospital," Rachel said seriously.

Lea held her hand and said weakly, "We don't need to go to the hospital. I already know the reason

why I'm like this."

Rachel was even more confused. She was about to ask more questions when Lea finally dropped a

bomb. "I'm pregnant."

Lea's voice was very weak when she spoke, but for Rachel, it was like a thunderclap in her ears.

What did Lea say? She was pregnant?

Rachel was in a trance for a few seconds. Then her eyes moved down to her belly and asked, "Is

Henry the father?"

Lea nodded.

For the first time in her life, Rachel swore, "Fuck!"

Meanwhile, Eric was still very busy with his work. It had been a while since the last time he saw

Rachel.

He had to work overtime every day but never complained because he liked it.

After all, he got his dream job in his dream company. He would always cherish this opportunity that was

given to him

So Eric had to turn down Rachel's invitation today. Although he felt guilty, he knew that she would

understand how important his work to him.

He promised to spend more time with her on his vacation.

Since Eric couldn't come, he missed hearing the big news.

It took Rachel a while to accept Lea's shocking revelation. No wonder she suddenly panicked when

she flopped down on the couch earlier. It turned out, she was pregnant.

Based on her observation, Lea was very careful of the baby in her belly. It seemed that she had already

accepted her pregnancy. But Rachel still couldn't help asking, "Are you going to...?"

Lea had immediately understood what she was going to say so she replied impatiently, "I just don't

know what to do now!"

She tidied up her hair and looked at Rachel pitifully. "Rachel, I need your advice. Please tell me, what

should I do?"

Rachel was tongue-tied. She actually didn't know what to say. She had no experience with things like

this.

"Don't you want to marry him?" she asked hesitantly.

Lea tilted her head and answered, "Not really."

She didn't have so much trust in Henry.

"But do you want to keep the baby?" Rachel asked again.

Lea touched her belly and fell silent for a while. The baby came so suddenly. She was still very young

and was not prepared to become a mother.

But she had never thought of giving up her baby as well. Now, her mind was in a mess. She really

didn't know what to do with her current situation.

Rachel took a deep breath and rubbed her face. "Is there anything else that you are not telling me?"

Lea hesitated for a moment and shook her head. She had never hidden anything from Rachel except

her pregnancy.

Then she suddenly remembered something.

"Oh one more thing, Henry proposed to me," she said after a moment of silence.

Rachel was rendered speechless. Lea's revelations were overwhelming. She didn't know how to react.

All of a sudden, she realized that maybe this was also a good chance to tell Lea about her. So after

being silent for a while, she said, "Lea... I have something to tell you too."

"What is it?" Lea felt that Rachel had something very important to say.

"I'm in love with Jack."

Rachel felt relieved when she had finally confessed to Lea. On the other hand, Lea was very shocked.

She was stunned for a few seconds before she was able to ask in astonishment, "What did you say?"

"We are together now."

Rachel felt very uneasy.

It could have been easier if she was referring to someone else. But she was talking about Jack who

was a jerk in Lea's eyes.
