Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 12

Rachel found herself quite stupid when she thought about it. Fortunately, all her plans failed; otherwise she’d have a child in a broken home.

"I'm afraid you won’t have enough, so I wrote it for two and a half million yuan." Osmond took out a check for Rachel.

Rachel did not even pretend to refuse and just took it straight away. After checking it, she took out a pen and paper from her bag and wrote an IOU to Osmond, "Osmond, I will try my best to pay you back within a year."

"It's just a small amount of money for me." He pushed the IOU back towards Rachel and smiled, "Besides, he is my teacher. You can pay me back just the money you borrowed as slowly, and no need for an IOU."

"No, if you don't take the IOU, I won't accept the money." Seeing this, Rachel simply returned his check to show her determination.

Osmond had to agree; he took Rachel’s IOU, folded it up and put it in his pocket, "Fine! Then I'll take it, but without interest. Just pay me back what you borrowed."

Rachel wanted to say something but Osmond rushed to speak half-jokingly, "If you feel so bad about it then you can pay back the interest by teaching Monica how to read. She hates going to kindergarten."

Rachel thought for a moment and then agreed, "Okay, I was once an A-level student anyway."

"Ah, you were admitted by Peking University as the first place in our province.” Osmond also laughed.

Rachel was grateful to Osmond for lending her the money so she wanted to treat him a meal. But, when the time to leave came, Osmond received a call from his office asking him to go back for some work. "Can we have dinner some other time? I need to go to office today."

"No problem. If you have something to do, it’s fine." Rachel meant she could understand the importance of work.

After watching Osmond leave with Monica in his arms, Rachel also got up to leave. She went to the supermarket to buy some groceries. When she got back to her mother’s place, she found Kenneth’s car parked there. Kenneth was leaning against his car, his expressions dark and serious.

"Why are you here?" Rachel stood one meter away from him, asking questions, and in her heart, regretting telling him her mother’s address when she rented this place for her.
