Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 66

Rachel looked at the back of his head and was frustrated and clenched her teeth.

She doesn’t know why her heart softened. She knew very well that he did it for the child but when she saw that he was concerned for her, she couldn’t bear to reject him.

What a slut, totally useless. Rachel scolded herself.

Kenneth held her hand and brought her to buy a cup of hot milk. After paying for it, he asked, “Other than this drink, would you like to eat anything?”

“I’m not hungry.” Rachel didn’t give him a pleasant expression.

“Then would you like to sit down and rest or continue to wander about?”

Actually, he had been following her but was worried that she’ll be upset, that’s why he just revealed himself.

Rachel glanced at him and said, “I’ll go back now, you can leave too.”

She took the milk and turned to leave.

Kenneth stopped her and said evidently, “Your mom’s leg is injured and you don’t have anything to do when you go back. I’ll accompany you for a while and then we’ll have dinner together.”

“…”

Rachel looked strangely at him for two seconds and laughed coldly, “You really know how to decide for me. What makes you think that I don’t have anything to do? Do you think that everyone’s like you, wandering about like a stray dog?”

Kenneth, “…”

Stray dog?

This woman’s mouth was increasingly vile!

He has always known that as the daughter of a judge, she was eloquent. But never had he expected her to be so hurtful and vicious. Does she hate him so much?

“Tomorrow I’ll have to go back to J City and I only have time now. Even if you despise this, it wouldn’t be for much longer.” He laughed calmly and held onto her hand and walked forward, not giving her a chance to reject.

Rachel was dazed by his smile and just came to her senses but realized that she had already left with him. Her ear warmed up as she said, “Are you walking a dog? Can you release my hand? Don’t think that you can use the child as an excuse to take advantage of me.”

“…”

Kenneth felt hopeless but doesn’t wish to be driven off. He could only release the petite hand but suddenly a car sped by right next to her.

“Careful!” His expression changed and instinctively embraced her in his arms.

Rachel was in a daze and haven’t even reacted to the situation. She was warmly cuddled and she could smell his scent and she felt safe and protected.

But she was snapped back to reality by her consciousness, she steels herself and pushed him away, “Release me! I really can’t let down my guard around you!”

Kenneth frowned and his handsome face was wrinkled, “These should be said by me. I’ve never seen you so distracted. Can you be more careful when walking on the road?”

“You, I…”

Rachel was dumbfounded as he lectured her. She was at a loss but didn’t know what to rebut him with. Her face turned red and blue as she flustered.

She has never seen him nag in the past.

Thereafter, the man very naturally held onto her hand. He wouldn’t let go no matter how she struggled and tried to escape. After he looked at her calmly, she calmed down and accept it.

It’s not because she was weak but no matter what she said, he had a way of countering her. Of the ten sentences, nine were regarding the child. This also showed that what he was doing was because of the child and he kept telling her not to read too much into it. What else can she say? She can only accept it and stop struggling.

She was deep in thoughts and before she realized it, they had already walked to a shopping promenade.

She was afraid of being seen by someone she knew and didn’t want to continue into the promenade and asked, “Why are you bringing me here?

“To buy something.”

Rachel raised her eyebrow and grabbed the hand that was held by him, “Go alone if you want to buy something. I’ve not seen you being so troublesome. I don’t want to shop, I want to go home.”
