Have I Told You Lately

Chapter 36: How Could She Forget Him That Easily?

There were only breathing sounds in the room. Sitting there still for several minutes, Rachel didn’t

receive any phone call.

In the end, she gritted her teeth and turned her phone off, before going to bed.

Wondering if she felt disappointed, Rachel didn’t feel sleepy for a while. She tossed and turned on the

bed; even her ears were sensitive enough to honking sounds from the community gate clearly.

That jackass!

Rachel scolded the man inwardly several times. Hugging Monica, she shut her eyes and forced herself

to sleep.

……

The next morning, Theresa was stunned for a while at the sight of Rachel. “What happened? Didn’t you

sleep well last night? Did Monica wake up last night?”

Rachel scratched her hair, drowsy, and shook her head. “No, she didn’t. I slept well…”

If it weren’t for that bastard’s call, she would have had a sound sleep.

It was fine that he called her. But why on earth did he keep silent for a long time? As a result, she woke

up again and again, with his face lingering in her mind.

Alright, she admitted that she still cared about him.

How could she forget him, a man she loved for three years, that easily?

“So your eyes are swollen after having double-eyelid surgery in your dream?” Theresa busted her lie

coldly.

“...”

Rachel was chocked by her words and fled back to her bedroom. “Monica is awake. I need to dress her

up.”

After breakfast, Rachel used a warm towel to make the swelling down. Then she put on light makeup

and looked better.

Checking the time, she was about to call Osmond, but he called her first.

“Hello, Osmond, are you on the way?”

Osmond apologized on the phone, “Rach, I’m sorry. I didn’t have time to inform you earlier. At five

o’clock, I received an emergency call. I’ve left N City. I’ll be back in the afternoon. But I’ve asked a

servant to pick Monica up later.”

Rachel was stunned. “A servant? Don’t you hire a servant?”

He had told her that several servants he hired were bitten by Monica, and he didn’t dare to hire one

anymore. Thus he had to take Monica with him all the time.

“She’s the last one. I asked her to help me for another half a day.”

Rachel kept silent, while Theresa frowned as soon as she heard that. “That’s not a good idea. Since

you’ve fired her, how can you trust her and let her take care of the child? Well, if you’re busy, I can help

you take care of her. I’m available.”

She glanced at Monica. Rachel also felt it was a bad idea. “If you don’t mind, let my mon take care of

her. You can pick her up in the afternoon. If the servant is bitten by Monica again, you’ll be in trouble

again.”

Osmond was silent for a while and then hesitated. “I don’t want to bother you. Monica can’t talk. It’s

hard to take care of her.”

Rachel suddenly remembered Monica had autism. She wouldn’t talk, and it was hard for others to

understand her. Afraid that Theresa couldn’t handle it alone, Rachel pondered for a while and

suggested, “Or… I take her to my company. I have a private office. She’s well-behaved by my side, not

crying or making trouble. You can directly come to my company and pick her up in the afternoon.”

“But you…”

In order to avoid his hesitation, Rachel chuckled, “Osmond, I’m running out of time. I have to dress up

and go to work first. See you around.”

Then Rachel hung up the phone. She squeezed the girl’s face and asked with a smile, “Can you follow

me today?”

Theresa looked at her anxiously. “Will your leader say anything, if you take the kid to the company?”

Dressing Monica up, Rachel said calmly, “I’ll explain it to them later. I’ll worry if you’re alone with her.”

“Then you…” Theresa regarded her belly.

Rachel was like going out with three kids. She looked up and smiled at her happily. “It’s okay. I’ll be

careful.”

……

In the Vantage Inc., the colleagues all widened their eyes in shock, watching her take an adorable child

in.

“Rachel, this… this is your daughter?”

“How adorable she is! Come. Let me hug you.”

“Manager Yvonne, do, do I need to give her a red envelope?”

“…”

Rachel looked at the approaching claws, silent for a few seconds. Then she embraced the child and

glared at others. “Don’t scare her. She has autism, afraid of strangers. Well, she’s my friend’s child.

He’s busy, so I help him take care of her today.”

They were stunned and soon calmed down. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“I see. Rachel, if you’re not available, we can help you.” Someone grinned.

“I have a lot of snacks. Later I’ll bring them to her.”

“Come on. Don’t let her eat junk food. Rachel, I can watch cartoons with her.”

Rachel was frozen.

Why did her subordinates love fooling around? They weren’t so fervent before.

“Okay, okay. Thank you for her. But don’t get closer. Otherwise, she will bite you.”

Rachel waved her hand and reminded them before taking Monica to her office.
