Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 57

The lines on her forehead deepened as she hesitated. After a few seconds, she bit her lower lip and said, "I'm sorry I haven't decided yet."

She really didn't know what to do. With Osmond she had never been able to feel that feeling she felt with Kenneth.

Seriously speaking, she really enjoyed being with him; but, for so long, she had never felt anything towards him which would make her want to be more than friends.

Osmond, who had been looking at her sideways, turned to look at the front again. His eyes darkened but his smile was still soft and gentle. "It's OK. I can wait. As long as you don't reject me, I still have the chance."

Rachel looked at him gratefully but at the same time, her guilt increases. She felt like she had to decide soon. She couldn't keep him waiting in hopes of a chance and waste his time.

After finishing the hospital procedures, Osmond went out to buy food. Rachel was in the ward with Monica and her mother when she suddenly received a call from Mr. Johnson.

"Hello, Mr. Johnson!"

"Rachel, did you discuss with Mr. Ogden the other day?"

"Well, yeah, a bit. I am sorry. I couldn’t really introduce our company to him a bit better."

She had also lost the phone number that she got with such difficulty.

Johnson didn’t mind at all, he smiled into the phone and said lightly, "It's OK. His secretary sent me an invitation just now. We will be meeting in the afternoon. He asked me take you with me. If it’s fine with you, can you come here now? "

“…”

Right Now?

Rachel turned around and looked at her mother, who was still receiving an IV drip, then asked him, "Did he mention to bring me along?"

"Yeah." He answered. In fact, he too found it a bit strange that Ogden Reed still remembered her.

Rachel sighed.

Mr. Johnson, noticing her behavior, said, "Is it hard for you to leave right now? Should I tell them you can’t be there?"

After all, it is a last-minute invitation, and he is not a boss who likes to force others, especially on weekends.

"No, I’ll manage, please send me the address and time. I'll be there as soon as I'm ready." Rachel still did not refuse.

As a company manager, it is her duty to prioritize the company's interests first. Besides, Mr. Johnson is a considerate boss. She didn’t want to make things difficult for him.

"Hmm, okay, let me know when you leave. You can be rest assured that this year’s bonus will be a big one."

Rachel smiled at the mention of money, "Thank you very much."

God! She's really has no integrity in front of money.

After hanging up the phone, she went to the nurse to explain a few things. When she came back, she saw that Osmond had arrived.

"Rachel! Come and eat."

Rachel walked over, and said embarrassedly, "Sorry, Osmond, just received a call from work, my boss needs me to be there. There are some urgent matters to deal with."

Osmond’s expressions showed no change except a slight accidental surprise. He simply asked, "Do you have to go now? You've been busy since morning and didn’t even have lunch yet. No matter how busy you are, you should pay attention to your health. "

Theresa was dissatisfied and complained, "Doesn't your boss know it's the weekend? Why do you have to work overtime every day and then even on the weekends? Didn’t you tell him that my leg is injured and you need to stay with me? "

Rachel and Osmond looked at each other, both at a loss, "Mom, you know you are the most important person in my life. Don’t worry, I have told the nurse that I have to go, I’ll be quick with work and come back as soon as I can."

Osmond also smiled, patting Monica’s head, he said, "I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I’ll stay here with Monica to accompany you."
