Jack lifted the quilt, picked up Andy and walked out. "Andy, I'll send you to a better kindergarten from next week, okay?"
"But why?" Andy asked curiously. "Dad, I already have friends here. I don't want to change."
"It will be fine. You will be able to make new friends there." Jack's persuasive voice gradually faded away. Covering the quilt with her hands, Rachel beamed.
This was the biggest disagreement between the two of them over the years, but Jack was oblivious. And yet Rachel used her way to make him realize his mistake.
Rachel picked up her phone, and sent him the number of the kindergarten near their home.
It was not until Jack read the message that he realized he had fallen into the trap set by Rachel from the beginning.
The problem which could have caused a fight between them was solved like that.
After she gave birth to Andy, Rachel had transferred to the cardiology department. Since then, she had devoted herself to her work diligently. Therefore, she took over the position of director once the previous one retired.

Rachel was a little anxious. "Jay, what can I do for you? If it's not an urgent matter, can it wait till tomorrow?"
"Rachel." Jay called her, contemplating for the right words.
Raising her head to look at him, Rachel waited for him to continue. When he didn't, she looked down at her watch again and said, "Jay, I'm really in a hurry. If you have anything to say, please hurry up."
"It's my birthday. I was wondering, if you have time tonight? How about having dinner together?" As he spoke, he reached out to grab the back of his neck. Embarrassment was written all over his face, which made Rachel's heart beat heavily.
'Was Jack right to worry?' she wondered.
