Chapter 412 Scarlett Is On The News

Name:Trapped In Lace Author:Goose
"Uncle James, please give me some time to think things over."

Rachel pursed her lips and lowered her head. She didn't say anything more.

Knowing her, James decided not to say too much anymore. He only wanted to help, but he also didn't want to cause pressure on Rachel, especially now that she was pregnant. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Well, I have a meeting later, so I'll go back to my office now. If you need anything, call me, okay?"

After she sent James away, the office became quiet again, and it made Rachel feel more depressed. What he said was right. Although she lost her parents, her life had never been miserable. The Fu family had given her the affection of a real family. She was guided and protected well. Her needs were all provided, and they sent her to a reputable school to get a good education. Aside from Jonathan, James also stood as a father to her as she grew up.

She was very grateful to them, especially to Jonathan.

But things happened too suddenly and unexpectedly. So no matter how rational she was, she couldn't help acting impulsive.

Propping her chin in the palm of her hand, Rachel thought for a while. But the phone on her desk interrupted her train of thoughts.

A female voice came at the other end of the line. "Executive department? I just want to know if we already have a surgery scheduled this month."

"Give me a moment. Let me check." It was Rachel's first time doing administrative work. She hurriedly turned on the computer and looked for the surgery schedule list. After checking, she found out t

shock was written all over her face. Her terrified reaction was enough for the other nurses to prove everything.

She grabbed the newspaper and ran out while shouting, "Don't talk nonsense about it."

Rachel was currently watching the video that Lea sent her. In the video, Rita was dancing with her arms and feet waving.

All of a sudden, Celia rushed into her office, panting. Seeing the expression on her face, Rachel asked in surprise, "What's up?"

"Rachel, what's going on?" Celia put the newspaper in front of her, pulled a chair, and sat down. "Why is Jack with this woman? Only two days ago, I heard from Marcus that you two were back together again..."

Looking at the blurry photo, the expression on Rachel's face turned a little strange, and darkness flashed through her eyes. But it quickly returned to normal. With a smile, she said, "They just attended a party together. He asked my permission about this."

Celia looked at her suspiciously and asked in disbelief, "You knew about this?"

"Yes." Rachel smiled. "As you can see, my belly is getting bigger and bigger now. It's not convenient for me to attend this kind of party. But since they need to bring a female partner in this event, Jack asked her."

"Really?" Somehow, the expression in Celia's face softened a little. But after giving it a careful thought, she wasn't convinced at all. "But look at this woman. She clung to Jack's arm like a gecko. Rachel, you must confront him about this when you get home."

Rachel nodded, but there was an unreadable expression in her dark eyes.
