After they left, Rachel took two steps to the side and shook off Jack's hand. "You can go shopping by yourself. I'm going home."
"What's the point of shopping alone? Besides, if the baby knows that the crib is bought by the two of us, he will be really happy." Jack held her hand again and walked slowly towards a maternal and infant shop downstairs.
That was the character of Jack. Even if Rachel didn't talk to him, he could keep talking on the side.
Feeling annoyed, Rachel rolled her eyes, but Jack didn't show any anger. Instead, the gentle smile in his eyes became more and more intense. "I want the baby to listen to his father's voice more, so that he can recognize me as soon as he is born.
At this time, a clear female voice cut through the noise, and poured into everyone's ears like a clear stream. With her eyes fixed on them, Rachel saw Scarlett running down from the elevator and rushing towards them. She tightly grabbed the arms of Jack, "Jack, why are you here? Are you here for me?"
"Let me go!" Jack didn't expect to meet Scarlett in the mall. He took a look at Rachel subconsciously and saw a trace of disgust in her eyes.
His face darkened, and there was an indescribable desolation and coldness in his expression. "Scarlett, I should have made it clear to you. Get out of here right now!"
"Get out?" Scarlett raised her head and suddenly burst into laughter, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes. She reached out again to pull Jack, and said in a voice that was not reconciled, "Jack, I'm not a machine. I'm a person, and I also have feelings. We love each other so much, why do you end it so easily?"
The noise of the quarrel was not low. The shop assistants nearby heard the noise and came out one after another. They stood at the door of their own shop and whispered to them. Many words like "mistress, love triangle" spread to Rachel's ears, which only made her feel ashamed and embarrassed.
She took off Jack's hand and said expressionlessly, "Take your time. I'm leaving now. I won't disturb you."
She didn't want to stay here and continue to be the gossip of these shop assistants.
Jack wanted to catch up with her, but he found that the current situation was indeed not suitable. He said coldly, "Don't cry. Come out with me!"
After finding a relatively quiet place, Jack looked at Scarlett, who was sobbing non-stop, without a trace of pity in his heart, but only disgust and regret.
"Scarlett, I have made myself clear to you. If you do this again, you know the consequences."
There was no expression on Jack's face and no emotion in his voice.
Scarlett was stunned. She just came out of the clothing store and asked several shops, but they didn't allow her to return the clothes.
Among them, she had been looked down upon by many shop assistants.
She didn't expect to see Jack being with Rachel.
She had never seen such a gentle and even flattering Jack.
He had never treated her like this before.
From beginning to end, it was she who tried to please him, but Jack didn't even bother to look at her!
When she came to her senses, she had already gone to hold Jack's hand.
Scarlett took two steps forward. When she was about to get close to Jack, she immediately took a few steps back when she saw the look in his eyes.
She looked at him almost pleadingly, "Jack, I don't want anything. You just want me to stay with you. Don't drive me away, okay?"
Jack didn't even give her a look and left directly. All he thought about was Rachel.
After walking out of the shopping mall, Rachel thought that since she had asked for leave, she would not go to the hospital but go home directly.
Now her belly was getting bigger and bigger. After shopping for an hour, she was very tired. As soon as she lay on the bed, the bedroom door was gently pushed open from the outside. With a flattering smile on the corner of Jack's mouth, he asked, "Are you feeling better, Rachel? I just passed by a dessert shop and bought your favorite dessert. Would you like to have a taste?"
"No, thanks. I need to go to bed now." Rachel slowly lay down.
He came in with the desserts in his hands and put them on the side. He asked in a low voice, "Did you take a taxi back just now?"
Rachel yawned and asked in confusion, "So I should come back on foot?"
