Rachel took out a scarf from the cabinet and put it on her shoulder. When she opened the door, she
saw a pair of feet standing in front of her. She looked up and saw Jack standing with his hands half in
his pockets. He sneered, "Why don't you go out today?"
Rachel asked curiously, "Why do I go out?"
"You don't have to be with your little friend and his father..." Jack paused a second and continued, "For
a date?"
...
'You psycho!'!
It had been a long time since the last time they had dinner. The two of them didn't talk about this topic
since that day.
Rachel didn't know what was wrong with Jack this day. As soon as he came back, he brought it up. She
frowned and said in a flat voice, "Get out of my way!"
As he expected, he took two steps to the edge of the room. When Rachel walked out of the room and
gently closed the door, Jack suddenly held her hand and said, "I have something to ask you."
Rachel tried to get rid of his hand, but failed.
"Rachel." Jack wanted to increase the strength of his hand, but when he saw her frown slightly, he still
couldn't bear it. He just used a little strength and pulled her in front of him. He held her arrows with both
hands and faced her face to face. He said, "I just want to ask you a question."
"Are you familiar with the father and son?"
Hearing this, Rachel was confused again. She didn't understand why the first thing he said when he
came out of the hospital was to ask Jimmy and his son. She frowned, took his hand and said coldly,
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Jack frowned, "We haven't divorced yet. Everything about you has something to do with me."
His words made no sense.
Annoyed, Rachel turned around and sneered, "I didn't ask anything about your relationship with
Scarlett. I hope you won't ask about mine!"
Hearing this, the look on Jack's face suddenly darkened. He took a step forward and wanted to hold
her again to make it clear, but Julie came over with a tray in her hand. "Miss, I saw you haven't come
downstairs for so long. I was afraid that it would get cold, so I brought it up for you."
"Julie, I'll go downstairs with you. Help me bring them to the dining room, please." Taking this
opportunity, Rachel went downstairs without looking back.
Jack wanted to catch up with her, but he stopped after clenching his fists and slowly loosening them.
He used Scarlett to provoke Rachel, hoping to make her jealous and see a trace of his position in her
heart. But now he was choked by her words and had no strength to fight back.
Jack smiled bitterly. Was it like lifting a stone to hit his own feet?
As the old saying goes, the injury of the muscles and bones will last for one hundred days, and the
injury of Jack's ribs has only lasted for half a month. The doctor specifically asked him to rest in bed.
His wound was affected by his anger just now, causing a burst of pain.
He raised one hand to cover the wound and the other to support the wall. He couldn't even move a
step.
When she finished her breakfast and went upstairs again, Rachel saw him standing still in this position.
She wanted to ask him if his wound hurt, but thinking of the dispute between the two just now, she
finally made up her mind and went straight to the room.
She had nothing to do with him.
Forcing herself to sit down, Rachel picked up a book beside her and read it. But after a while, she didn't
read a word.
Finally, she chose to compromise.
She opened the door and looked out, only to find that Jack was no longer in the corridor outside.
Full of expectation, Scarlett walked towards the hospital, with a little joy in her heart. During this period
of contact, she found that Jack would open several website on time almost every morning.
And the website where the photos were posted was one of them.
Therefore, she was not worried at all that he would not see it.
Walking in the corridor, Scarlett unconsciously hummed a tune, but when she walked to the door of the
ward, she saw a cleaner in the hospital changing the bed.
She took a step back, looked up at the made up door and confirmed that she didn't go to the wrong
place.
Scarlett frowned and asked, "Where is the patient here? Where is he?"
"He is discharged from the hospital." The cleaner threw the changed sheets and bed on the ground and
replied without looking back.
'Discharged...
Where would he go after he was discharged from the hospital?' Of course, Scarlett could think of where
he would go, but she couldn't get involved in that place. Therefore, the moment she heard the news,
she only felt that she had been abandoned.
Scarlett took out her phone and dialed Tracy's number.
When [李敏霞] received the phone call, she went to the shopping mall with her friends and asked,
"what's up?"
"Auntie, I just came to the hospital. The nurse said that Jack had been discharged from the hospital."
Scarlett pretended to be anxious.
Tracy didn't react at once. Hearing this, she just asked, "Is he all right now?"
Just then, a few friends walked in front of her. They turned around to look at her and urged, "Why are
you so busy? We have to hurry up. I need to pick up my grandson at noon."
"Okay, I know."
Tracy replied to her friend, so she just said to Scarlett, "I'll call you when I'm done here."
Then she hung up the phone.
Scarlett was furious, but she was not reconciled in the end. She tried to call Jack, but was hung up
directly without surprise.
After turning a few pages, Rachel couldn't help yawning again.
Rachel had just woken up for two hours. When she looked at the bed, she just wanted to get back to
the bed as soon as possible. She had never been so sleepy.
She lowered her head and touched her belly, smiling, "Baby, you are so capable that you make your
mother another person."
After sitting for a while, Rachel felt that her eyelids were heavy. Finally, she put down the book and
decided to follow her own thoughts.
Just as she lifted the quilt and was about to lie down, Rachel's phone rang.
Gary's name jumped on the screen. Last night when they had dinner together, the little guy took away
her phone number.
She picked it up with a smile, "Gary, didn't you say that you would sleep late today? Why do you call
me so early?"
"Auntie, can you come to my house to keep me company?" Gary's voice was a little muffled, "Dad has
something to deal with. I'm the only one at home."
Rachel asked, "Don't you have grandma?"
"She said she had something to deal with. Auntie, I'm a little hungry and want to eat noodles."
Rachel frowned and thought that she had nothing to do at home anyway, and it was really uneasy for
him to stay at home alone.
After all, there were a lot of news about children staying at home alone and having an accident.
Then Rachel changed her clothes and went out after saying goodbye to Julie. After she went out, Jack
came back the next second and asked, "Where is Rachel?"
Julie pointed at the taxi which had turned and said, "Miss Rachel said she had something to deal with,
so she went out."
"What is it?"
Julie shook her head to show that she didn't know. Jack paused and handed her a bag of things that he
had been holding in his hand. Then he said, "Take these things to her room."
When she arrived at Gary's home by taxi, Rachel saw him sitting alone on the floor of the living room,
bending over the tea table and doing homework. His favorite cartoon was playing on TV.
As soon as he saw her, he put down the pencil and ran over. He rubbed his stomach and said, "Aunt
Rachel, you're finally here. I'm so hungry."
"Haven't you eaten so many snacks?" Rachel pointed at the bags of snacks scattered on the floor
beside the tea table.
Gary grinned, rolled her eyes and said naughtily, "But I still want the food cooked by Aunt Rachel."
"Okay."
After cleaning her hands in the bathroom, Rachel went to the kitchen and made a simple bowl of
noodles with the ingredients in the fridge. When she put it on the table, she saw that Gary had fallen
asleep on the sofa, and there was a little liquid flowing from the corner of his mouth.
She had no choice but to go to the bedroom. She took a small blanket from the bed and covered him,
while she sat on the side, idly picked up Gary's homework and looked through it. Unexpectedly, a
sound of key rotating rang. Not long after, a middle-aged woman appeared at the door, with a few bags
in her hands. She might have just finished shopping and came back.
When Rachel saw her eyes wide open and her face full of shock, she was also shocked and hurriedly
put down the book.
The middle-aged woman turned around and slowly closed the door. She asked, "Who are you? Why
are you here?"
"I'm [琪琪]'s friend. He called me this morning and said that he was alone at home, so I came to see
him."
Rachel stood up, picked up her bag and said with a smile, "Since you're back, I'm leaving."
It was at this moment that the middle-aged woman noticed her protruding belly. Her eyes widened. She
pointed at Rachel's belly and said, "This... Is it..."
Rachel looked down at her belly and said lightly, "Oh, it's almost six months."
"No wonder." The middle-aged woman murmured with laughter.
Although she didn't hear it clearly, Rachel thought it was not good for her to stay here because of her
identity. She smiled and left. When she came out of the community and was about to take a taxi to
leave, Tracy's voice suddenly rang behind her. "Rachel!"
She didn't expect to meet her here.
Rachel turned around, and Tracy came over. She frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I just went to my friend's house." Said Rachel with a faint smile.
At this time, Gary's grandmother suddenly ran out of the community and shouted, "Miss, you left your
phone in my house."
It was not until then that Rachel realized that she had just put her phone on the sofa. When she left,
she only took her bag, but forgot her phone.
