The taxi driver slowly stopped the car at the gate of the hospital. He turned around and took the cash
from Rachel's hand. He looked at the rearview mirror and said, "Miss, the black car seems to have
been following us all the time. Is he your friend?"
Black car?
"I suppose so." With a faint smile, Rachel reached out to open the door. When she got out of the car,
she looked back and saw that Jack also got out of the black car.
When she saw him walking towards her slowly, Rachel was a little surprised. "Why are you here?
Aren't you still sleeping?"
"I have slept enough." Jack reached out and smoothed the hair that was blown on her face to the back.
"I'm worried if I didn't see you arrive at the hospital safely."
"It doesn't matter." Although Rachel pretended not to care about it, she still felt a little strange in her
heart.
At this time, a familiar voice came from the side, "Rachel".
Subconsciously, she took two steps back to keep a distance from Jack. She turned around and saw her
colleague running towards her from the parking lot. With a cup in her hand, she smiled and said, "I got
up this morning and made some soybean milk myself. When we arrive at the office later, you can have
a taste. It tastes good..."
"Okay." Rachel nodded with a smile.
In the past, except for some work affairs, Rachel seldom had any contact with her colleagues. Now the
big change was affected by Celia.
Thinking of her, it suddenly occurred to Rachel that she had been busy with her own business these
days, and she hadn't contacted Celia, not even a message or phone call. She didn't know how Celia
was going about the dinner with Marcus's families.
Seeing that Rachel subconsciously distanced herself from him, as if she didn't want her colleagues to
find him, Jack's face instantly became disappointed. He frowned and glanced at the two of them. Then
he quietly turned around and left. After sitting in the car, he took out his mobile phone and typed a
message to Rachel.
"I'm going back."
When she heard these words, Rachel turned around and found that the black car had disappeared.
The colleague patted her on the shoulder and asked, "What's wrong? Who were you talking to just
now?"
"Just a friend." With a smile on her face, Rachel walked towards the elevator and changed the topic,
"Why do you suddenly remember to make soybean milk this morning?"
When her colleague heard this topic, she immediately opened her mouth and began to murmur, but
Rachel didn't hear a word. She recalled the message from Jack and thought that he might be angry
and sad now, which made her uncomfortable.
But Rachel didn't regret to hide their relationship.
She didn't want to spread the news that she and Jack might get back together so soon to everyone in
the hospital, because Rachel felt that she couldn't bear it anymore that her colleagues would whisper
behind her again that she and her husband were separated again.
Seeing that Jack was depressed and listless as soon as he entered the office in the morning, Austin
put down the documents and was about to leave directly, but he was really curious, so he couldn't help
but stop and ask, "Boss, are you okay? Is there anything wrong with you?"
Jack rubbed between his eyebrows, "I'm fine."
"Then I'll go out first." Austin nodded. Noticing that he didn't want to say anything, he knew that he
wouldn't say anything even if he asked. So he turned around and was about to leave. As soon as he
reached out his hand to touch the doorknob, Jack's voice came from behind, "Austin."
Austin stopped and asked, "Boss, what can I do for you?"
Jack tapped his fingers on the table and kept silent for a while. Then he said in a low voice, "If your
girlfriend hides your relationship and doesn't want others to know it, what do you think is the reason?"
"Is that Miss Shen?" Hearing this, Austin asked directly, without thinking too much.
It was not until he saw Jack's face suddenly darken that he realized that he had said something wrong.
He touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Boss, I don't have a girlfriend yet. I really don't know how to
answer this question."
Jack frowned, "Answer whatever you think."
The corners of Austin's mouth twitched. It was too difficult to answer this question. If he told the truth,
he was afraid that Jack would be unhappy. But if he didn't tell and find an excuse to prevaricate. He
was afraid that Jack would not believe him.
He thought for a long time and said something that he didn't even believe himself. "Maybe, she just
wants to find a suitable time to introduce her boyfriend. She just wants to keep a mystery temporarily."
Jack sneered. Obviously, he didn't believe it.
Seeing his expression, Austin also realized how ridiculous he was to say that. He scratched the back of
his head and added awkwardly, "Boss, in fact, why don't you ask that girlfriend directly? After all,
everyone had their own thoughts and ideas. No matter how close they were, there're some secrets in
everyone's heat.
No one must be able to guess it correctly."
Hearing this, Jack was silent. He grabbed the pen on the side, turned it two times, and whispered,
"Well, you can go out. I'll talk to my friend later."
"Okay." Hearing this, as if had got a gold medal for sparing his life, Austin hurriedly turned around and
walked outside. He couldn't help but whisper, "All the people who ask questions by the name of their
friends as excuses are actually talking about their own situation."
Jack frowned slightly. After a moment of silence, he reached out his hand to pick up the phone and
dialed the number of Rachel. "Shall we go out for dinner tonight?"
It was useless to guess randomly and it was better to ask her directly.
In the office, the Director of the executive department pushed the door open and came in with a stack
of documents in her hands. When Rachel saw her, her eyes and brows twitched two times.
Now she finally knew that as long as the Director appeared, there would be no good news and some
hard work coming.
Sure enough, this time, the Director put a pile of documents in her hands on the table, bent her finger
and knocked on it two times. "These are the medical records of the past few years. You can go through
them and type all the patient information into the computer. At that time, you will collect them into a
document and send it to me. You have to hand it to me before you get off work, got it?"
'Before work?'
Looking at such a thick stack of old medical records, even if she had four pairs of eyes and eight
hands, Rachel might not be able to finish all these before work...
The corners of her mouth twitched. "Director, I don't think I can finish so many tasks before I get off
work. Let's find some colleagues to share them. We can finish them together as soon as possible."
The Director frowned and said impatiently, "I need you to teach me how to do it? I've already given
some to someone else. Or do you think these are all of them? If you have time to bargain with me,
you'd better do it early."
After she was taught a lesson for no reason, Rachel only felt a cold sweat on her forehead. She shook
her head helplessly, but she could only take the top medical record and began to make forms seriously.
The time seemed to pass very quickly. Rachel was so busy that she didn't even have time to drink
water in the afternoon. Finally, she drove out the form before getting off work and sent it to Director's e-
mail. However, she only received a lukewarm evaluation from Director, "Don't underestimate your own
ability in the future. You always try to drag on your work!"
It was hard to say whether it was praise or criticism.
Rachel picked up the teacup and drank water. When she saw the words on the screen, she almost
choked and swallowed hard. She typed two times on the keyboard with her hands, "Got it."
After sorting out the old medical records which had just been turned over a little messy, she moved
them back to the record room. When she returned to her office, she found that it was already over
twenty minutes after work.
Jack must have been waiting for her anxiously?
Rachel had thought Jack might have called her several times, but she didn't.
'Is there something urgent in the company?' After thinking for a while, Rachel took out her phone and
called Jack. But to her surprise, his phone was powered off.
Frowning, she put the phone back on the table and sat down again. After thinking for a long time, she
decided to wait a little longer.
Maybe he was delayed by something? Maybe, his phone was out of power and he was on the way to
the hospital. If she left like this, the two of them would really lose contact.
However, after waiting for nearly an hour, neither Jack appeared nor a phone call came to Rachel.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. She looked up at the door subconsciously. Before she saw
anyone come in, she asked, "Why are you so late?"
But she didn't expect that it wasn't Jack who pushed the door open, but one of her colleagues.
The colleague stood at the door of Rachel's office. She rubbed her arm and asked, "Who are you
waiting for? Why haven't you come back yet?"
"No." The corners of her mouth twitched in embarrassment. Rachel stood up, picked up her bag
hanging aside and said gently, "I was dealing with something and just finished it. I'm going back now."
"I really envy you." The colleague pouted and said, "I'm still working on the list. With so many medical
records, I don't think I can make it even until tomorrow morning."
