Rachel had really no appetite today. And now that she saw and smelled all the food on the table, she felt her stomach churning. She couldn't eat anything at all.
On the other hand, Celia was enjoying her food so much. She picked up a scallop, dipped it in mustard sauce, and put it into her mouth. Squinting her eyes while chewing leisurely, a satisfied expression surfaced on her face.
But when she noticed that Rachel was only sitting motionlessly, she asked, "Rachel, why are you not eating? Why are you just staring at me like that? I feel quite embarrassed."
"Oh, really?" Rachel teased her while picking up a scallop with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. However, before she could even chew it, her stomach felt sick. She quickly put down her chopsticks and rushed to the bathroom.
"Rachel, are you okay?"
Celia asked as she grabbed several tissues from the table and caught up with her.
Rachel weakly pressed her hands on the sink for support. She had never vomited like this for a long time, so she felt uncomfortable all over her body. She tried her best to calm down.
Celia stood behind her, gently patting her back. When she saw that Rachel had calmed down a little, she hurriedly handed her a tissue. But seeing Rachel's pale face, she panicked and asked, "Rachel, shall we go to the hospital? You're now on the second quarter of your pregnancy, aren't you? Do you feel anything strange or uncomfortable?"
Seeing the nervousness on Celia's face, Rachel wanted to say that she was fine, but she really didn't have the strength to speak.
She held Celia's hand to comfort her. After a while, she said with a weak smile, "I'm fine. Maybe I'm just a littl
she left her work without even saying a word to him. This time, he called him to help her get a job in the hospital again. She felt really sorry for everything she had done to him.
James replied in a deep voice, "You don't have to apologize. Since your parents passed away, I have seen you grow up, and I've treated you like my own daughter. As a father, how can I not help you when you need me?"
Rachel was greatly moved upon listening to James' words quietly.
She lowered her head and said sincerely, "Uncle James, I will always remember all the good things you have done to me as long as I live. But for now, I feel like I have entered a dead end, and I don't know how to get out temporarily."
The Fu family had been so kind to her since she was a child, so she didn't want to ask for their explanation. She didn't even want any compensation from them for what they had done to her parents. She just didn't want to see them.
If she saw them, it would only remind her of everything that Linda had told her. The pain in her heart was too much that she wouldn't want to cross paths with either Tracy or Jonathan ever again.
James heaved a deep sigh and asked Rachel to sit down. "As a witness, I should say something too. At that time, Jonathan was indeed too anxious. But he didn't expect that such a tragedy would happen to your family, especially to your parents. I believe that he would never force your parents to pay their debt in such a hurry. Many years have already passed, Rachel. It may sound blunt, but I think he also did his best to make it up to you. I know, no matter how much hatred you have in your heart, you can still forgive him if you really want to."
