When they arrived at the hospital, there were a lot of people waiting in line. Julie went to the registry desk to get the number. Then, Rachel found an empty seat and sat down. Looking at the passers-by, she put her bag on the empty seat beside her to occupy a seat for Julie.
Julie came back soon. She looked up at the screen on the wall and then looked down at the number card in her hand. She calculated and said, "Miss, there are still seven people waiting ahead."
Rachel smiled, "It's soon."
Julie nodded and carefully folded the number list and hid it in the medical record. She asked, "Miss, why don't you let Mr. Jack take a shower first before coming to the hospital with us? If he was here, you wouldn't have waited here so hard."
"Not at all." Although she said so, Rachel subconsciously put her hand on the back of her waist and slightly pressed against it.
Her belly was getting bigger and bigger these two days. After sitting for a long time, she only felt sore and uncomfortable at the back of her waist.
Julie noticed that and put the medical record on her lap. She reached out and rubbed the back of her waist. "Miss, Mr. Jack really cares about you. In fact, if there is any conflict between you two, you'd better talk to each other and make it clear. If you don't tell him, no one will know."
In the past few days, Julie had been taking good care of Rachel's diet and daily life. She more or less knew something about her relationship with Jack. While gently massaging, she paid attention to Rachel's expression.
Seeing that she was just listening quietly without much dissatisfaction, Julie continued, "How can it be possible for two people to live together without a little argument? Let bygones be bygones. Sometimes quarrels can make a relationship warm up, but if it's too much, it's very likely that this relationship can be broken up so suddenly."
Although Rachel knew all these things, she was still a narrow-minded woman.
When she didn't love him, it didn't matter to turn a blind eye to these things. But since she really loved him, she couldn't tolerate it anymore.
At this time, the nurse's voice came from the door, "No. 18, Miss Rachel please come to No. 5 room."
Rachel slowly stood up and took the medical record from Julie's hand. She smiled and said, "Julie, I can go in by myself. Wait for me here."
At this time, Scarlett had been sitting in Starbucks for half a day. The girl sitting opposite her poked the ice cubes at the bottom of the glass with a straw and said helplessly, "Can we leave now? Besides, even if you go out for a walk, you still can receive the phone call."
"What if the phone doesn't ring?" Scarlett asked without raising her head. She fixed her eyes on the screen and muttered, "It shouldn't be a problem. Why haven't you called me yet?"
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone suddenly rang. Scarlett's face suddenly tightened. She swallowed and calmed down for a while before she slowly picked up the phone. "Hello?"
A shrewd look flashed through Jack's eyes. He said coldly to the phone, "I'm Jack. Where are you now? I'll pick you up."
'Pick me up...'
Hearing this, the smile on Scarlett's face widened. She wished she could jump up directly. But when she thought of her next plan, she suppressed her anger and cleared her throat. "Mr. Jack, it's the same to say anything on the phone."
Jack frowned and said, "I won't let you out if I can make it clear on the phone."
"But, I..." Scarlett still wanted to show her unwillingness by pretending to be pretentious. However, as soon as she uttered these words, she was interrupted by Jack, "Address!"
Obviously, she had no patience to listen to her nonsense anymore. Scarlett had to change her plan and tell her address.
The doctor handed the B Ultrasound report to Rachel, pointed at the blurred B Ultrasound picture on it and said kindly, "Previously, your prenatal checkups were not done in our hospital. I don't know the specific situation, so I can only get a general understanding of it through the examination report you brought here. But it's obvious that the baby's development and nutrition are much better than before. You don't need to supplement anything special next. Just keep it as it is. After all, it's too much, and it will also affect you."
"Okay, thank you, doctor."
Hearing the doctor's affirmative answer, Rachel was relieved. Julie couldn't wait any longer and walked up to her as soon as she saw her. "Miss, what did the doctor say?"
"Everything is fine."
Seeing her smile with a hint of tenderness in joy, Julie couldn't help laughing. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were squeezed together, but she thought that if she went back and said something in front of Mr. Jack, he might be able to raise her salary by the way next month.
That was why she worked for others.
However, when she arrived at home, Julie looked around, but didn't see Jack. Julie was about to ask, but when she saw that Rachel was sitting on the sofa and reading the magazine leisurely, as if she didn't care whether he was at home or not, those words rolled on the tip of Julie's tongue a few times, and finally swallowed them all.
