Chapter 465 Wife Baby
Chapter 465 Wife Baby
What a poor man Jack was! He had brought some of Rachel's favorite food and was about to come over, but when he saw the round table full of four people, he had to find an empty seat and sit down, waiting for them to finish their conversation. He glanced at her from time to time. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Hey, Rachel, you are pregnant. Don't your husband come with you today?" Sophie looked at her belly, her eyes full of gossip.
Rachel smiled faintly. "He's here."
Reminded by this, she suddenly remembered that it had been a long time since Jack came to took the food.
She looked around and found that he was surrounded by a group of people, who seemed to be talking about something.
It was not surprising. It seemed that wherever Jack was, he would always be the center and focus of people easily.
"Where is he? Why don't you ask him to say hello to us?" Sophie asked with a smile.
Rachel shook her head and her phone on the table vibrated for two times. She picked it up and found it was a message from Jack. "Do you want to go home?"
She couldn't wait to reply, "Okay."
Then she slowly stood up, pulled her coat and smiled, "I have to go back. You guys take your time."
Sophie hurriedly said, "Hey, it's just been a while. Are you leaving so soon? Let's sit a little longer. Anna said she would come and join us later."
Pretending that she didn't hear what he said, Rachel continued to walk slowly. Not long after, Jack came out of the crowd, held her hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing the impatience and tiredness in his eyes, Rachel asked, "What were you talking about over there?"
Jack opened the door, put his hand over her head and fastened the seat belt for her. "I'll tell you later."
The soft music slowly flowed out from the sound. Seeing that he had not taken the initiative to say what had happened just now, Rachel had to ask again, "What happened just now?"
She didn't mean to meddle in other people's business, but anyway, Jack came to the wedding with her. If something unpleasant happened, she had something to do with it.
Jack tapped the steering wheel with his slender fingers and said in a low voice, "Just the business."
"Business?" Frowning, Rachel turned off the music directly in order to hear it clearly.
She asked, "They don't have any business contact with you, do they?"
If her eyes didn't deceive her, the bridegroom and his groomsmen who were surrounding Jack were not known by Jack.
Jack chuckled, "Yes, they just took initiative to talk business with me, asking me to give them a chance for the sake of our wives were junior high school classmate."
"Oh, my face is so valuable." Rachel touched her face and chuckled. After a while, she frowned again and said, "Why do I think they have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time? As soon as they saw you, they came to talk to you?"
Jack turned to look at her and smiled, "It seems that you are not stupid. I think, after you and Lea met her in the mall, she must have found out your background."
Hearing this, the corners of Rachel's mouth twitched. "It seems that she came to see me on purpose, not to see a doctor at all. I felt strange at that time that why she left so soon after talking to me?"
Seeing that Jack laughing and not answer, she asked again, "Then how did you reply?"
"I gave him the business card of Austin and asked him to send a cooperation plan to the e-mail. Whether we can succeed or not depends on his ability." Seeing her darkened face, Jack reached out to rub her hair and said with a smile, "Don't worry. I won't feel this kind of thing annoying. I asked you if you want to go home, because I saw you not want to stay there anymore."
Rachel felt a little embarrassed when what she thought in her heart was exposed.
She removed his hand from her head and put it back on the steering wheel. The corners of her mouth twitched. "Please don't do these things that have nothing to do with driving. Drive carefully."
"Yes, madam!" Jack put his hand on his temple naughtily and bowed.
Rachel didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. The topic just now had been over. She put her hand on the central control screen, intending to find some music to play again. When she was about to ask which folder his music was put in, she suddenly saw two folders with strange names.
One was "Wife", and the other was "Baby"...
Rachel looked up at him and found that Jack was focusing on driving and didn't notice what she had found or seen here at all.
She opened the folder named "Wife", which was full of her favorite English songs, which were completely different from what Jack usually listened, and the music in it was exactly the same as that in
her computer.
Then she exited and reopened the folder named "Baby", which contained some children's songs.
Jack finally noticed her. When he saw the two folders on the screen, a rare flush appeared on his face. He scratched the back of his head and explained, "I only have some radio and light music in my car. I'm afraid that you will be bored, so I..."
Rachel nodded. She didn't say anything, but her heart was deeply touched.
She reached out and clicked on one of the songs. Leaning back, she closed her eyes and said softly, "I'm tired of these songs. You can change some other songs."
"Okay!'
What Jack feared most was that he wouldn't be ordered by Rachel to do anything, even if it was just a matter of changing a song, which was enough to make him excited.
Unexpectedly, Jack's action was very efficient. On the second night, when Rachel was about to go back to her room to have a rest, Jack grabbed her hand with the computer in his hand and asked, "Rachel, look, I just downloaded them today. Do you like them?"
With a click of the mouse, Rachel pulled down the music list. To her surprise, nearly more than 100 songs had been downloaded by Jack, and all were her favorite.
She was a little surprised. "Did you ask someone for help?"
"How is that possible?" Jack raised his chin and said, "I've heard all these songs. I thought you would like them, so I downloaded them."
As soon as he finished speaking, he covered his mouth and yawned. When Rachel looked up, she saw Jack's red eyes and several red streaks in his white eyes. She asked, "Did you look for them the whole night?"
"No." Jack answered, but his answer was somewhat illusory. He didn't dare to look at Rachel's face, which had completely betrayed him.
Rachel took the computer and closed the lid. Then she pushed Jack's shoulder and walked to his room. "Have a good sleep tonight."
That sentence was just a joke for her, but Rachel didn't expect that Jack took it seriously and put it into action so soon. He really touched her heart.
The second morning, after having breakfast, Rachel put down her chopsticks and looked at the stairs subconsciously.
Noticing her gaze, Julie smiled and said, "I don't know why Mr. Jack hasn't woken up this morning. I'll go upstairs and wake him up later."
"No, thanks." Rachel stopped Julie and said, "Let him sleep a little longer."
Last night, although she asked Jack to go to bed early, he was so energetic that he didn't want to have a good rest. Instead, he took her to stay in the study for a long time. He found many names of the baby and asked for her opinions. It was not until she yawned again and again that it was temporarily over.
At that time, it was already twelve o'clock in the evening. Even if he would fall asleep soon after he went back, it was only eight hours now.
Rachel stood up and said in a low voice, "I can take a taxi to the hospital this morning. I don't need him to send me."
"But..." Julie hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Mr. Jack said it's not safe for you to take a taxi to work alone."
Shrugging her shoulders, Rachel said, "I don't think it's safe to let a person who doesn't sleep well send me to work."
She made a joke on purpose. As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang. It was the taxi driver she had made an appointment with. He called and said that he had arrived at the door.
Rachel took the fruit prepared by Julie and walked out.
Not long after she went out, Jack came downstairs in a hurry. While buttoning up his suit, he said in a hurry, "I'm sorry, Rachel. I overslept this morning. I'm sending you to work right now. You won't be late."
Unexpectedly, it was Julie who came out of the kitchen. She pointed at the door and said, "Miss Rachel took a taxi to work just now. She said you were still sleeping and asked me not to wake you up."
"How long has she been out?" Jack asked, with a slight smile on his lips. No matter what happened, she always cared about him like this, but every time he asked her, she would deny or directly skip the topic.
Julie looked at her watch and calculated in her heart. Then she said uncertainly, "It seems to be about ten minutes."
