"What about the second?" Pursing her lips, Rachel lowered her head to look at her toes, but her ears were tightly listening to his voice.
Jack said, "If you don't want to go back with me now, I will naturally find out whether this child is mine in my way. If it is confirmed to be my child, I will try every means to bring him back to me. Rachel, as you know, if you want to compete with me in this respect, you can't win me."
He knew clearly that if he didn't come up with such a method to force her, Rachel might not give him any chance at all.
And these two options were in front of her, Rachel must know which one was better.
A few minutes later, Rachel sneered, "Jack, I never knew that you could be so shameless!"
Jack thought that as long as he could get her back, he would not hesitate to use the dirty method!
Raising her head, Rachel gritted her teeth and glared at him, "I have no choice but to go back with you! But I have a request. Don't tell Jonathan and Tracy!"
In the face of them, she was still not mentally prepared.
"Okay." Jack replied in a low voice.
When she returned to Ning City, Rachel still felt that it was a dream.
However, looking around the strange living room, she knew that everything was real.
This was a two-floor villa. Rachel had always known that Jack had a lot of property under his name, but she didn't know that he could arrange a new house for her to live casually. Didn't he want her to recall the bad memories about the past?
However, it had to be said that Jack was smart.
He put the suitcase aside. Jack's eyes were a little deep and warm. But Rachel pretended not to see it and said in a plain tone, "Where is my room?"
The implication was that she wanted a separate bedroom instead of continuing to live with Jack.
He seemed to have expected what she would say. He pointed to the second room on the right side of the second floor and said, "Everything is ready inside. Let's have dinner first. I'll take you upstairs to have a look later. Tell me if you need something more."
As he spoke, he reached out to hold her hand, but his fingertips only slid across her clothes.
Rachel said, "I can walk by myself. I hope you can reduce some unnecessary touch in the future."
In the dining room, an aunt was already busy. As soon as she saw them coming in, she came over with a smile and said kindly, "Miss, I cooked some noodles for you."
"Okay, thank you." As long as Rachel didn't face Jack, there would be more or less a smiling expression on her face.
With a bitter smile, Jack forced himself to cheer up and introduced, "This is Julie. She is here to take care of you. When I'm not here, you can call her if you need anything. Is it okay for you?"
There was no response.
Rachel walked to the cupboard and took out a pair of chopsticks. Then she returned to the table and sat down. She lowered her head to eat the noodles in her bowl and sincerely praised, "Julie, you are good at cooking."
However, Jack seemed to be invisible and didn't exist there.
Lea was shocked and asked, "You mean, Rachel is pregnant?"
"Yes." Jack smiled bitterly, "Now she is back to Ning City. Although we live together, she completely ignores me and doesn't even want to say a word to me."
He really had no choice. The only person he could think of to help was none other than Lea.
Lea thought for a while and said, "Do you want me to have a talk with her? Or do you want me to be the peacemaker between you two?"
It would be the best if both of them were together, but Jack also knew that it was a daydream.
Lea knew the reason why Rachel left, and Lea supported her.
Jack sighed, "It depends on you."
"I only care about her health. As for other things, I won't say a word." Then Lea excused that she had to take care of her daughter, Rita and went to the bedroom.
Jack held the teacup in his hands, looking embarrassed and disappointed.
At this time, he finally understood what it meant to go one wrong step and lose everything.
Henry came out of the study at the right time and patted him on the shoulder. "Well, don't be depressed. It's not your style."
"Then what is my style?" It was the first time that Jack felt so frustrated and incompetent.
Henry thought about it seriously and chuckled, "Conceited?"
Seeing that Jack's face suddenly darkened, Henry coughed and finally stopped joking. He said seriously, "You shouldn't have given up so easily! Believe me, one day, Rachel will let go of the past and open her heart to accept you."
Jack didn't say anything, but his long and narrow black eyes had revealed his emotions at the moment.
However, Henry took it seriously for only a moment. "After all, no one wants to live with an insane person all the time."
