Before this, when he was still by her side, Rachel couldn't remember the good side of Jack. What
swayed in front of her was all his bad. He deliberately concealed the news about him and the eight
young models, as well as the woman who looked like her.
But now, such a thing happened. Sitting outside the operating room and waiting for her, her mind was
full of his kindness.
She was in a bad mood for no reason. When she took him as her punching bag, he was still coaxing
her; when she was angry and didn't want to talk to him, he still insisted on sending the weather forecast
to herself every day, reminding her not to catch a cold...
It was said that people pursued something they couldn't get all their lives, and once they got it, they
wouldn't cherish it anymore?
Her nose twitched slightly. Rachel raised her hand and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
She prayed in her heart that as long as he could be safe.
Rachel was so absorbed in her thought that she didn't notice that Tracy had been staring at her with a
frown. No one knew what she was thinking about.
"Rachel!" Tracy suddenly called her name and sat down beside her. "Has Jack been with you these
days?"
Rachel gradually calmed down and nodded, "Yes."
"Then why did he go to NJ City?"
There was a faint anger in Tracy's eyes, which was clearly seen by Rachel. She pursed her lips and
said in a low voice, "I don't know."
Then, a sneer came to her ears. Tracy stood up, pointed at her nose, and suddenly became excited,
trembling with anger. "Rachel, we were indeed not considerate enough at that time. We owed Shen
family and you. But after so many years, it should be enough, right? Ask yourself, has the Fu family
done anything wrong to you since you were a child?"
Jonathan came up, grabbed Tracy's arm and shouted in a low voice, "Enough! Now, Jack is still in the
operating room. Is it appropriate for you to say that now?"
"Why not?"
Tracy raised her hand and wiped the tears on her face with the back of her hand. She roared, "I have to
say it because Jack has been tortured like this. Jack treated you with all his heart and soul. He hid this
from you because he was afraid that you would be sad and leave him if you knew it. But you, you even
didn't give him a chance to explain once you heard it from your aunt! Do you know how he was tortured
by you? You never cared about him from the beginning to the end. As his mother, I kept persuading
her, but it didn't work. Now that you're back, it's okay for you to get along well with each other. But do
you give him a chance? Austin said he didn't need to go on a business trip in person, but he said he
would go. I think you know the reason, don't you? Rachel, I just want to ask you a question. Are you
relieved that you have tortured Jack like this?"
Feeling a little sore in her throat, Rachel shook her body. Fortunately, Julie immediately supported her.
Jonathan's face suddenly darkened. "Can you shut up?"
Tracy glared at her and walked to a corner. She covered her mouth and began to cry. She had thought
it through. Although Jack's baby was in Rachel's belly, it seemed not useful.
She only had one son and thought that Jack couldn't stand the repeated torture anymore. If something
went wrong again, she would definitely collapse. As long as her son was fine and healthy, there would
definitely be a grandson in the future!
Rachel was sitting on the chair. There was only one sentence in her mind, "Are you relieved to torture
him?" If she hadn't lost her temper with him at that time, would he not come to NJ City for a business
trip? Would the car accident never happened?
Seeing her pale face and trembling lips, Jonathan heaved a heavy sigh and patted her shoulder gently.
"Rachel, you can go home and have a good rest. We are here with Jack. It's okay."
She raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes and insisted, "I won't leave until
Jack's operation is finished."
Jonathan said, "But judging from your mother's condition, it's not appropriate to stay here. When Jack's
operation is over, I'll call you. You can come back first."
Julie also persuaded. Looking at Tracy's trembling shoulders and the closed door of the operating
room, Rachel finally stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. I'm sorry to disturb you, Jonathan."
The sunshine outside the hospital was a little dazzling, which made Rachel unable to open her eyes.
Julie followed her and looked at her carefully. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
The two of them walked on the street for a long time. Gradually, Rachel regained her sanity. She took a
look at Julie's legs, which were gradually unable to walk, and said in a low voice, "Let's go back to the
hotel."
They had booked a hotel on the way here, just next to the hospital, which was only about five hundred
meters away.
As soon as they entered the lobby of the hotel, a familiar voice came from the front, "Rachel."
Rachel was walking with her head down. When she heard the sound, she raised her head and saw that
Lea was running towards her. The three of them, Michael, Marcus and Henry stood at the front desk
with a straight face.
Lea opened her arms and said, "Rachel, don't be afraid. It's okay."
It was not easy for her to hide her fragility and stop her tears. The moment Rachel saw Lea, she finally
couldn't hold back her tears any more. She buried her head on her shoulder and cried, "it's all my fault,
Lea."
Lea also cried and comforted her. "Rachel. How could it be your fault?"
The two stood in the lobby of the hotel, holding each other and crying, and all the people passing by
looked at them.
Henry walked up to her, pulled Lea away and held her in his arms. "Honey, let's go back to our room
first, okay?"
"Yes. Let's go upstairs first." The usually cheeky Michael also had a long face.
When she returned to her room, Rachel gradually calmed down. Listening to the comforting words of
Lea, she felt very sad, and there was no tears in her eyes. She tried to squeeze a smile and said, "Lea,
I'm fine."
"How could you be fine? If you are really fine, you won't say that it's all your fault." A pile of facial
tissues had been thrown at her hand.
With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Rachel said, "I'm really fine. I just think that if I don't come
back or quarrel with him and directly forget that thing, he wouldn't have had a car accident."
After Rachel left the hospital, Tracy gradually stopped crying, but her shoulders were still shaking.
Looking at her, Jonathan raised his fingers several times and wanted to say something, but finally he
lowered his head helplessly.
After a while, Tracy took out her mobile phone and looked for the number in the communication.
Jonathan snatched it and asked, "Who are you calling?"
Tracy stretched out her hand to grab it, "I'm calling Scarlett."
Jonathan snapped, "Can you stop for a while? Since Rachel is back, is it appropriate for you to ask
Scarlett to come here?"
"Why not? Jonathan, let me tell you, I will never allow Rachel to stay with Jack. I only have one son. I
can't afford to be frightened again!" As she spoke, she covered her mouth and cried out again. She
shouted hysterically, "If anything happens to Jack, I don't want to live."
Jonathan finally softened his heart. He slowly put down his hand holding the phone. Tracy took the
phone and walked to the side to call Scarlett.
He stood up on his crutch and walked to the door of the operating room. Two teardrops squeezed out
of his old eyes. He thought that this matter would gradually pass since Rachel came back. But now,
such a thing happened out of nowhere.
In the operating room, a breathing tube as thick as a finger was inserted into Jack's mouth. With his
eyes closed, he didn't feel anything. He had no idea what was happening outside.
After hearing what Lea said, Rachel finally lay on the bed. She closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
Then Lea told Julie to take good care of Rachel and call her as soon as possible.
Henry had been waiting for her at the door of her room. When she came out with swollen eyes, he felt
sorry and helpless. "I asked you to accompany Rachel. Why are you crying?"
"I can't control myself. Rachel is too bitter." Speaking of this, Lea grabbed the shirt on Henry's chest
tightly and burst into tears again.
Since Rachel was a child, she was different from other children. Other children had parents, but she
didn't. She only had uncles who were not her families. Therefore, she was always strong and didn't
bother others. Only Lea knew that she would cry alone in bed most of the time.
After wiping her tears, Lea straightened up and continued. "When we were young, we were taught to
sing a song called "Mom Is The Best In The World". At that time, we were asked to take turns to sing
on the platform. At that time, Rachel sang very well and everyone was clapping. But at that time, a child
suddenly stood up and pointed at Rachel, "She doesn't have a mother. Why can she sing this song? I
haven't seen her sing since then."
Henry patted her shoulder gently and said nothing.
