Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 35

“But she really likes you." Before Isabella could reply, the man looked up at her and chuckled.

She was stunned and felt weird immediately. "I like her too, and I hope she can be like a normal child. If my help is useful, I'm willing to spend more time with her. " She turned around to look at Rachel, pretending that she got nothing behind his words.

"Thank you,Isabella, ." The man looked at her in deep eyes.

Isabella laughed stiffly, "Luke, don’t say that. You have helped me a lot, of course I should take care of Rachel. And also, I hope she will be alright, sincerely. "

Nothing was more important than Rachel. No matter what their relationship is, she could not ignore Rachel.

Luke looked at her and was about to speak, but finally said nothing. He only smiled to Isabella.

They chatted for a while again. Feeling that it was a little late, the man got up, "Then I'll go back with Rachel. You should have a rest early."

Isabella nodded and stood up, "Okay, I'll send you off."

"Rachel, we gotta go." Luke smiled and looked at the little girl on the ground.

Rachel was focusing on the painting book. Only after the man called her a few times did she raise her head to look at him. After a few seconds, she blinked her big eyes and shook her head slowly.

Luke was stunned, "What? You don't want to leave?"

Rachel looked at him, then turned to look at Isabella, and nodded slightly.

Luke felt funny and walked over to pick her up, "But it's too late. We should go home and let auntie rest. We'll come in another day, okay?"

Rachel shook her head and became sad. Then, she grabbed Isabella's sleeve with her small hands, with her lips pouting slowly.

"No no no …" The man felt a bit helpless. "If you want to read this panting book, we can take the book and read it on our way home." He rubbed her head and said softly.

"Auntie will give it to you, ok?" Isabella smiled and pinched her cheek.

Luke nodded at her, "Don't send us off. Have an early rest."

Isabella sent them to the door, then looked at the Rachel that laid on Luke's shoulder. When she was about to wave at her, Rachel started crying suddenly.

She was startled , "Luke."

Luke turned his face and saw Rachel’s crying face. He frowned, “ Rachel, what's the matter?”

She kept silent and no one knew what was wrong with her.

Isabella saw that Rachel was crying with holding her sound back. She felt hurt and walked over to hold Rachel in her own arms and said: "She can stay, I'll take care of her tonight."

"No way! You're pregnant and still have to work tomorrow. I can't let her bother you."

Isabella patted Rachel's back lightly and smiled at him. "Don’t worry. If I can’t do it. My mother definitely can. She's more experienced than us."

Luke rubbed between his eyebrows and said speechless. "She…"

“？” Isabella raised her eyebrows and joked, "You wouldn't be jealous to me, right? Let her stay here for one night and I’ll return her to you tomorrow morning. "

If she were Luke, she would not let Rachel be away. After all, they stayed together every day.

Luke felt funny about her words. "If you like, you can help me watch over her every day."

"Well, I'll trouble you tonight. I'll pick her up at work tomorrow morning.
