Lea was worried and a little mad at Rachel. "Why didn't you tell me? Let me look at your wound."
She obediently turned to let Lea take a look at her head. The wound had healed, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Lea felt sorry for her. "Why weren't you more careful? Was it serious?"
"I'm fine. It's not a big deal." Rachel was only half lying. She quickly changed the topic before Lea could ask for more details. "Come on, let me see your belly."
Lea said, "There's nothing to see."
Rachel poked her belly, but there was nothing different.
She sighed slightly, "Time flies. I can't believe you're going to be a mother."
Lea was reading a book. Hearing Rachel's words, she snorted. "You can have one if you want."
Rachel didn't respond to her comment, but asked, "Are you free right now?"
Lea put down the book and rubbed her forehead. "How can I be not free? I'm so bored."
She was being forced to stay at home for the past few days. Her father was not allowing her to leave.
Her mind was in a whirl, so she obeyed her father's orders.
She read parenting books at home every day, preparing to be a good mother.
It hadn't been easy for her to get her phone back either. Lea was thinking about going out somewhere with Rachel when
intended to find a quiet cafe to relax.
As soon as they walked out of the restaurant, Lea took out her phone and her expression changed.
She picked it up and started talking. After a while, she burst into laughter and said, "Okay. Send me your address. I'll be right there."
Once she hung up, Rachel asked, confused, "Where are we going?"
Lea stroked the surface of her cellphone and stared at the ground. The corners of her mouth turned up and she waved the cellphone. "Alice wants to see me."
Rachel frowned slightly. "She wants to see you?"
"Interesting, isn't it?" Lea asked with a smile and put her phone back inside. "Let's go. I'd like to see what she has to say."
Before, she did not know how to face Alice.
But now, she was not afraid of her.
She didn't know what was wrong and why Alice wanted to see her. But Lea wasn't afraid.
Maybe she could even avenge herself for what Alice had done to her.
Rachel was still worried. "Don't go! What if she does something bad to you?"
Lea replied, "I can't hide from this woman forever. She asked to see me, so why not?"
"Isn't it better to inform Henry first?"
Upset, Lea swung her arms like a spoiled child. "Don't say a word to him. Come with me. I also want to talk to her."
