Chapter 451 I'll Make You Change Your Mind

"How can I not be nervous? How could that woman..." Julie stopped talking when she saw the expression on Rachel's face change.

She stood up again and said, "Miss, you didn't eat anything at the hospital today. I'll go and prepare some for you."

Jack's voice suddenly resounded from the door. "Let me do it, Julie. Please go and help Rachel up the stairs so she can take a rest."

Jack came in with several bags in his hands. He shot a look full of adoration toward Rachel, who was seated on the sofa. "Let me guess—you're probably craving a bowl of fish head soup right now, correct? I just bought some."

Rachel was surprised at Jack's insight, which made him guess correctly. Her expression a bit odd, she refused the offer. "No, you don't need to—I have no appetite."

With a slight smile on his face, Jack headed straight for the kitchen and began to cook.

Although Rachel remained aloof, her attitude right now was infinitely preferable to her leaving. Everything that had happened was his fault, so he deserved whatever treatment Rachel saw fit.

He screwed up, and so he would do everything to make amends, even if it took begging on his knees for forgiveness for a thousand times.

While waiting for the fish head soup to be ready, Jack sat at the table using his mobile phone to look up articles and references on caring for pregnant women. He jotted down everything he found of note on a piece of paper.

Steam gradually began to escape from under t

hearing her husband's voice. She snorted and said, "I will never agree to that. Rachel doesn't deserve to be your wife, and I don't even know if the baby in her belly—"

Jack cut her off before she could finish the sentence. "Mom, Rachel has never done me any wrong. If anything, I am the one who doesn't deserve her. I should be the one apologizing to her."

Jack had never spoken so harshly to Tracy before. Her eyes widened in disbelief. After a while, she looked up at him with tears in her eyes. "Are you saying that I'm wrong? Why am I being so persistent? I just want you to be happy in the future and have someone to take care of you."

Jonathan's face darkened at Tracy's sobbing voice. "They are all adults, so let them make their own decisions on their own lives. We don't need to worry about them!"

"At that time, you were the one who decided Rachel and Jack's marriage. Why can't I make the same decision now?" Tracy retorted. Jack rubbed at his nose, struck speechless by the low blow.

He picked up the walking stick on the side and sighed, "Whatever you want."

Tracy sobbed and wiped the tears from her eyes. She grabbed Jack's hand and entreated earnestly, "Jack, you must be sensible. I have lived longer than you, and I know how to read people through my experiences. I know who is suitable for you. I'm not saying that Rachel is a bad woman, but she is too cold and indifferent. Your wife should be someone who knows how to take care of you."
