Chapter 389 Met An Old Friend

At the mention of Lucas, Rachel realized what had happened. Her hands flew up to her mouth, and she asked in a serious tone, "What the hell happened to you last night? You were acting like a toddler. You're not like that."

"It's nothing." Jack grabbed her hand, showing every intention to continue.

Rachel moved aside to evade him. "Let's make everything clear first."

At her insistence, Jack turned over and lay back on the side, one hand resting on the back of his head. He looked up at the ceiling and snorted, "Fine! I admit I was jealous."

Hearing Rachel's laughter, he smiled and continued, "But I'm relieved to know that he's going to be a father."

That explained the mercurial shift of his mood that time.

Rachel was a little speechless, but sweetness bloomed in her heart.

Just then, Jack suddenly turned them over and pressed her on her back. With a smirk on his face, he murmured, "Of course, I can only rest assured completely if you become a mother, yourself."

After that, the bedroom was filled with sounds of sweet lovemaking, and it was like love redirected the sunlight outside the window.

Rachel was late for work. When she arrived at the office, she saw several people surrounding her office door and several nurses standing anxiously at the side and looking completely overwhelmed.

One of the nurses walked over, took her hand, and led her toward the exit. She whispered, "Rachel, I think it will be better if you go somewhere else and stay for a while."

d smiled, "Then, why don't you come with me to my office and stay there to rest? The mall will open in just a few minutes at ten, anyway."

Suddenly, a voice rife with suspicion and uncertainty spoke out from behind them, clearly reaching everyone's ears. "Linda?"

The three of them turned their heads almost at the same time. Rachel recognized the voice as that of the man who previously talked with her.

He took two steps forward, looking a little excited. His eyes seemed to be a little moist, and his hands were drooping on both his sides, continuously clenching and releasing.

Eric frowned and asked, "Do you know my mother?"

"Yes, we are old friends who haven't seen each other for many years." The man was all but choking on his sobs.

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's wife suddenly pushed her way through the crowd. She grabbed the man's arm and pulled him behind her, saying fiercely, "What old friend? We don't know her."

Didn't he call her name just now?

Rachel and Eric looked at each other. They didn't believe what the woman said, but they didn't ask further. Moreover, Linda stood aside and looked at her phone like the events were none of her business.

She had already forgotten the past. Even if she used to be an old friend, she could no longer remember him.

When they went into her office, Rachel prepared two cups of tea for them. Besides, it was time to make rounds in the wards, so she forgot what had happened just then and went back to her work.
