But Jack insisted, "No, how could I know your condition if I don't go in?"
The corners of Rachel's mouth twitched. She pointed to a piece of paper on the wall and said, "Didn't
you see it? "Men Are Not Allowed!"
Looking in the direction she pointed, Jack had to sit down again, but he still said with concern, "If
anything happens, call me immediately, okay?"
...
After taking a look, Rachel went straight to the consulting room.
Sitting alone in the chair, Jack checked the time on his watch from time to time and looked in the
direction of the consulting room from time to time. The door was still tightly closed, and he suddenly felt
more and more irritable. It had been twenty minutes since she went in. Why hadn't she come out yet?
Was there something bad happening all of a sudden?
Beside them, a man happily walked over with his wife in his arms. He grinned and asked, "Why are you
so fast today? You came out in five minutes."
'She only needed five minutes, while Rachel had already been in for twenty minutes!'
The more Jack thought about it, the more anxious he became. He couldn't wait any longer. He stood up
and walked towards the consulting room. But when his hand touched the doorknob and was about to
open it, a nurse stopped him. "Sir, you have to sit aside and wait. The other pregnant women are still in
the examination. You can't go in."
"I know. The woman inside is my wife. She has been in there for a long time and hasn't come out yet.
Can you let me in to have a look?" Jack looked anxious.
The nurse explained expressionlessly, "The examination time will be different. Some people will be
examined for more than half an hour. Please sit down and wait. If there is anything wrong, the doctor
will inform you."
"But..." As soon as Jack said one word, the door of the outpatient room was opened from inside. At the
door stood Rachel and a doctor, and they looked at Jack in confusion at the same time.
Rachel was the first to react and asked, "Why are you standing here?"
"Nothing." Jack took a step forward, grabbed her hand and asked worriedly, "How is it going? Is
everything okay?"
"Everything is fine." Rachel withdrew her hand in embarrassment.
The doctor next to him was used to such a scene. He chuckled, looked at Jack and said, "It's been
seven months. You finally came here with your wife today. Then I don't need to make another copy of
the examination report today, right?"
Jack completely forgot about the doctor. He was too embarrassed to say anything but shook his head.
Hearing this, Rachel was confused. She looked up at him in confusion and asked, "What examination
report? The copy?"
Jack held her waist and said softly, "Let's go home first. We'll talk about it later."
Along the way, Rachel asked several times what the doctor meant by saying that, but Jack kept silent
all the time. When they entered the house, she frowned and said, "Now we're home. Can you always
tell me what happened?"
Jack motioned her to sit down on the sofa and said, "Wait a minute." Then he went to the second floor.
When he came down again, he was holding a square iron box in his hand.
Rachel took it and opened it. Her eyes were full of surprise, and her heart trembled uncontrollably.
There were all her results of every antenatal examination and the B Ultrasound results she had made.
The sheets were neatly placed, and her lips could not help but tremble. "What, what's going on?"
"Every time you went to the hospital for the prenatal checkups, I would go there too, but I didn't show
up. When you left, I would go to the doctor and ask her to make a copy of the results." Jack said with a
bitter smile and a melancholy look on his face.
When she saw these things, Rachel was full of surprise, and now when she heard his words, she was
even more shocked.
When she thought Jack didn't care about her at all, he had done so many things silently behind her.
All of a sudden, Rachel felt warm in her heart, as if she had drunk a glass of strong wine. She looked
down at her tightly twisted hands and said, "However, at that time, were you with Scarlett..."
Before she finished her words, Jack interrupted her, "Rachel, nothing happened between me and her. I
just want to make use of her to irritate you."
"Irritate me?" Rachel repeated his words, but she didn't understand.
Jack nodded, took out a document from the bottom of the iron box, and spread it out. "This is the
agreement I signed with Scarlett. All I did was to make you jealous, just to make you have a little
reaction to me, and to let me know that in this relationship, I am not alone."
Jack had never mentioned these words to Rachel before.
Looking at the signature of Jack and Scarlett on it, Rachel suddenly felt a little sore in her nose, but she
couldn't help chuckling, "Jack, how can you be so childish?"
"Yes, I am too childish." Jack admitted directly, "I am too childish that I almost lose you completely."
He looked at her with his deep and passionate eyes, and Rachel pursed her lips slightly.
Jack smiled bitterly and continued, "At that time, I had a car accident and lay in the hospital, waiting for
you to come to see me, but you never appeared. Later, when I was able to stand up, I went to see you
at the first time. I didn't expect to see you and Jimmy sitting in the dining room, talking and laughing. I
was so angry that I lost my mind and did such a childish thing. Rachel, can you forgive me now?"
He asked cautiously. When he waited for her answer, he was so nervous that he even forgot to
breathe.
Jack felt that the air in his chest was getting less and less, but he still didn't hear her answer. He looked
down and saw her frowning and thinking about something.
Jack asked, "Rachel?"
It took Rachel a while to come to her senses. Tilting her head, she asked, "I went to the hospital when
you had a car accident. Why did you say that I didn't go?"
"You went there?" Jack opened his eyes with joy, but then he frowned tightly, and his thoughts
gradually became clear. He said in a low voice, "Maybe they didn't make it clear at that time."
He knew in his heart that there was no one else except Tracy and Scarlett.
Of course, Rachel had guessed what had happened. She knew that it was all over, and it was no good
for them to make it clear now.
She nodded and said, "Maybe when I went there, you were either in a coma or sleeping, so you didn't
know."
"Okay." With a long sigh, Jack reached out and gently hugged her. "I didn't expect that there are so
many misunderstandings between us. If I had known more about it, would the following things have
been avoided?"
"I don't know."
Rachel never thought about these hypothetical questions, because she knew that there was no 'If' in
the world.
But now, she couldn't help but imagine in her heart, if the two of them had more communication and
understanding, would they have a different ending waiting for them?
After a moment of silence, Jack said in a gentle voice, "Rachel, let's start over, okay?"
He asked again, and this time, Rachel quickly answered, but the same as the previous sentence, "I
don't know."
Rachel had no idea.
She was really moved by what Jack had done silently, but she also knew that being moved did not
mean everything. It did not mean that the two of them could abandon everything had happened before
and start over.
If the way the two people got along with each other didn't change, the same ending would still be
waiting for them.
Rachel gently pushed him away and said, "Jack, let's talk about it later."
"Okay." Jack nodded, thinking that at least she didn't refuse immediately, which meant he still had a
chance.
After the sincere conversation between them, the relationship between Jack and Rachel seemed to
have changed, but there seemed to be no change.
He still cared about her, but Rachel clearly noticed that she refused him less and less, and she was
gradually accustomed to his care.
On this day, Rachel had planned to lie at home, watching TV, reading books and having a rest. But as
soon as she got out of bed, she received a call from Lea, who shouted hysterically, "Rachel, come out
and go shopping with me. I'm bored to death staying at home alone."
"How could you be alone? Where is Rita?" While answering the phone, Rachel stretched out her hand
to get the soy sauce on the kitchen cupboard.
But another hand was faster than her. Rachel pointed to the table outside and commanded him silently.
Lea signed. "My father took her away."
"Then why don't you go with them?" Seeing that Jack pouring the soy sauce into the plate in front of
her, Rachel quickly made a gesture and told him that it was enough, but he didn't seem to understand
and continued to add it. She couldn't help shouting, "Jack, I just want to eat dumplings. You poured so
much soy sauce for me. Do you want to salty me to death?"
On the other end of the phone, as soon as Lea heard this, she came to her senses and asked
anxiously, "What's going on? Rachel, I'll pick you up right now. You have to go out with me later and tell
me the truth."
Hearing the sound on the phone, Rachel could only look up at the sky and sigh.
