Chapter 458 Misunderstandings Between Us

But Jack insisted, "No, how will I know about your condition if I don't come in?"

The corners of Rachel's mouth twitched. She pointed her fingers to the piece of paper that was stuck on the wall. "Can't you see? This clearly says men aren't allowed to enter!"

"Okay then," he said and let out a defeated sigh. But before he went to sit down, he looked at Rachel and pleaded, "If anything happens, call me immediately, okay?"

Without giving him an answer, she shut the door.

She shook her head in annoyance once she was in.

Sitting alone in the chair, Jack checked the time on his watch from time to time. His eyes were glued to the door. Seeing it was still tightly closed, his began to panic. 'It has been twenty minutes since she went in. Why hasn't she come out yet?' he wondered. Thinking something horrible had happened, he started pacing back and forth.

The man who sat beside him happily went to his wife. Embracing her, he said, "How did it get over so fast? It only took you five minutes!"

Listening to their conversation, Jack's worry intensified. 'How come it took her only five minutes? Why has Rachel been inside for twenty minutes?'

The more Jack thought about it, the more anxious he became. He couldn't wait any longer. Walking towards the consulting room, he was about to twist the doorknob.

On fine day, Rachel planned to have a lazy day at home. She decided to spend all her time watching TV, reading books and sleeping. But as soon as she got out of bed, she received a call from Lea who seemed to be in a horrible mood. "Rachel, come shopping with me. I'm bored to death staying at home alone."

"How could you be alone? Where is Rita?" While answering the phone, Rachel stretched out her hand to get the soy sauce from the kitchen cupboard.

But another hand gently grabbed hers. Jack was always by her side, ready to help her. Seeing this, Rachel pointed to the table in the hall and commanded him silently.

Lea sighed and said, "My father took her away."

"Then why don't you join them? It will be fun." Seeing that Jack was pouring a lot of soy sauce into the plate, Rachel made a gesture asking him to stop. But he didn't understand what she was trying to say so he continued to add more. She couldn't but shout, "Jack, I just want to eat dumplings. You have poured so much soy sauce. Are you planning to murder me?"

On the other end of the phone, Lea heard her words. Anxiously, she asked, "Rachel, what's going on? I'll pick you up right now. You have to come with me and explain the truth."

Hearing what Lea had said, Rachel let out a frustrated sigh. Perhaps she wasn't destined to have a peaceful day.
