Rachel said faintly, "You should know, Lea."
After a long time, Lea sighed and said in a low voice, "Let's talk about it later. You should take care of
yourself now."
Lea hadn't completely stabilized herself yet. After sitting for a while, she left. Jack came in again and
stayed by her bed for the whole night.
Rachel didn't sleep well the whole night. She wanted to forget that thing, but when she closed her eyes,
it would always appear in her mind involuntarily.
Fear was like a net tightly holding her.
It was not easy for her to fall asleep, but Rachel would have nightmares like before. She struggled to
wake up again. Looking at Jack who was full of tiredness in the moonlight, she only felt very
uncomfortable.
Why did a good relationship turn out to be like this?
She swallowed and hesitated for a few seconds. Then she said in a slow voice, which sounded a little
hollow in the quiet morning. "Jack, let's break up peacefully."
Jack wiped his face and changed the topic instead of answering, "Are you hungry now? I'm going to get
you a towel and wipe your face. Julie will bring breakfast here in about an hour."
His attitude of escape was obvious.
Rachel lowered her eyes and said nothing.
After a while, Jack came over with a towel in his hand. Rachel wanted to wipe it by herself, but Jack
insisted and said in a hoarse voice, "It's not convenient for you now. I'll take care of you."
From her forehead to her eyes, and then to her cheeks, Jack's movements were extremely gentle, as if
Rachel was a porcelain doll that would be broken with a little force so that he had to take care of her
carefully.
Then he wiped her hands and put them on his face. "Rachel, give me another chance to take care of
you, okay?"
After all these things, he finally realized what was the most important for him.
It was neither possessing nor being possessed. All he needed was that Rachel and the baby could live
by his side safe.
Rachel struggled for a while, but he didn't let her go. When she heard this, she was moved and sad.
So what if she gave him another chance?
In the end, the two people who were not destined to be together would be pass-byers in the end even if
they walked together again.
She was not confident that if the same thing happened again, could she hold on and not fall.
After a while, she said in a flat voice, "Let's talk about it later. I'm a little tired and want to have a rest."
Jack knew that it was an excuse for her not to continue the topic, but he could only help her cover the
quilt on the edge and gently said, "I'm on your side. Call me if you feel uncomfortable."
Julie brought some porridge and a bowl of chicken soup with her. Rachel didn't know if she hadn't
eaten anything since the day before, she didn't have any appetite. She forced herself to eat a few
mouthfuls. Suddenly she felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she put down the spoon.
She took a look at Jack, who was sitting on the sofa with a worried face, and said softly, "I can stay
here with Julie. You can go back first."
"Okay." Jack nodded and didn't insist.
Indeed, he needed some time to deal with something.
Squatting on the floor in front of the sofa, Scarlett kept trembling, and her hair was scattered on her
shoulders, making her look more like a crazy woman at this time.
Until she heard a sound of door opening outside, she stood up in a hurry and quickly walked up. "Jack,
you're back?"
Footsteps came from afar and nearer. Jack, dressed in black, came in with a chill all over his body. He
stared at her with his eagle like eyes, and his whole body seemed to be frightening and fierce. He
questioned, "Scarlett, what the hell do you want to do?"
However, Scarlett grinned, tilted her head and said innocently, "Of course I want you to come back. I
just want you, Jack."
Looking at her ecstasy, Jack squinted and asked, "Have you forgotten the agreement?"
"Of course I remember it. But we are human beings and we have feelings." Scarlett covered her chest
with her hands and bit her lips, "I love you, Jack. I think I love you so much."
Jack looked at her with a complicated look. There was a bloodthirsty fierceness in his obsidian-like
eyes, and at the same time with a hint of injury.
In the final analysis, if he hadn't thought of using Scarlett to irritate Rachel, it wouldn't have ended up
like this.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a long time, he opened his eyes again and said word
by word, "Rachel is my wife!"
Hearing this, Scarlett's face turned pale and desperate. "She is your wife. Then what am I?"
"From the beginning, our relationship is only about money. I think I have given you enough money."
Jack said coldly, with a cold look.
Seeing the obvious disgust and disgust in his eyes, Scarlett couldn't help trembling. She took two steps
back in succession, shook her head and said in a trembling voice, "No, it's not like that. Jack, in fact,
you also have feelings for me, or you wouldn't know that I used your money and didn't get angry.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have moved in and lived with me."
"Live together?" Jack sneered, "You live in one room and I live in another. How can we live together?"
He turned around, ignoring Scarlett's paler face, and continued, "And the money is just used to pay
commission to you. You can do whatever you want."
Commission?
Scarlett laughed sadly, "So I'm just a servant in your heart?"
Without any pause, Jack said directly, "Yes, almost!"
He took out a ticket from his pocket and threw it on the ground. He snapped, "The plane will take off at
six o'clock in the evening. Get ready and go there. Someone will pick you up. Don't appear in Ning City
again."
"Where am I going? Jack, where do you want me to go?" Panic was written all over Scarlett's face. She
picked up the ticket on the ground and looked at the destination in disbelief. "Jack, how can you let me
go there? How can you let me go so far?"
Even by plane, it would take more than ten hours.
And the other side was desolate and terrible.
Looking at her appearance, Jack pinched her chin tightly and sneered, "Now you are frightened? Why
didn't you think about the consequences when you went to see Rachel yesterday?"
"I was wrong. I won't go to see her again. Jack, don't let me leave Ning City. Don't ask me to leave."
That place was like a nightmare. There were a lot of news about it on the Internet, but none of them
was good. It was all about rape or theft.
Women had no human rights in that place.
It was not until this moment that Scarlett really felt scared. As soon as she saw the ticket, a touch of
coldness flashed across her back. She closed her eyes and trembled more violently.
Scarlett looked at Jack in horror and pleaded with a ferocious face, "Jack, I promise that I won't go to
see Rachel again. Don't send me away, okay? I beg you. "
"Well," Jack raised his hand to look at his watch and said indifferently, "I still have to go to see Rachel. I
don't have time to talk nonsense with you here. If you don't want to go there, you will wait for someone
to marry you. As for who the person is, I can't guarantee to you."
A hint of cruelty flashed through his long and narrow eyes. He paused for a moment, turned around
and left without mercy.
He felt sorry to Scarlett, but now she had threatened the safety of Rachel and the baby. No matter
what, he would not let her stay in Ning City.
Even if what she said just now was true.
After Jack left the ward, Rachel felt much better. She fell asleep unconsciously on the bed and was not
woken up until the doctor made regular rounds of the ward.
The doctor checked her condition and said with a smile, "Dr. Rachel, don't worry. The baby is fine and
the condition is stable now."
"Can I go home then?" Rachel didn't feel comfortable in this bed.
"Of course you can. I'll ask them to go through the discharge formalities for you." The doctor bowed his
head and wrote on the medical record for a while. Then he turned around and left.
As soon as she got the answer, Rachel asked Julie to take out the clothes she had just brought from
home and was about to go to the bathroom to change.
The clothes she wore the day before were stained with blood and had already been thrown into the
trash can by Jack.
As Julie unzipped her luggage bag, she asked uneasily again and again, "Miss, do we need to call Mr.
Jack and tell him about the discharge?"
"No, thanks." Said Rachel in a low voice.
After dealing with Scarlett's matter, Jack rushed back and saw that there was only a nurse changing
the bed sheet in the ward. He frowned and asked, "Where is the patient on this bed?"
"She has left the hospital." The nurse answered him without raising her head.
Jack hurriedly turned around and left, but when he was waiting for the elevator, he suddenly thought of
something. He went straight to the office of the attending doctor, with a trace of vanity in his eyes.
"Doctor, I'm sorry to bother you for a while. I'm the husband of Rachel. I want to ask if there is
something she has to pay special attention at home these days?"
"Achoo..."
All of a sudden, Rachel felt her nose itchy and sneezed three times in a row. Before Julie could take the
things in her hands back to the room, she put them on the floor directly and went to the kitchen to pour
her a glass of hot water. "Miss, do you catch a cold? Drink some hot water first in case."
Seeing that she was in a hurry, Rachel didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. She pulled Julie to sit
down beside her and said, "I'm fine. I just have an itchy nose and don't catch a cold. Julie, don't be so
nervous."
