Stuck in you

Chapter 427 It Was Awkward

"Thank you."

Rachel took the phone and thanked him. At that moment, her phone rang. The joyful voice of Celia was particularly loud through the phone.

"Rachel, do you have time now? I want to buy something for Marcus. Can you go with me?"

Taking a look at her watch, Rachel found that it was still early for dinner, so she agreed. After hanging up the phone, she said goodbye to Tracy and Mrs. Yang, and took a taxi to Celia's.

Tracy stopped her and said, "My car is here. I'll drive you there."

"Okay." Rachel opened the car door and got in.

It was very quiet in the car. Only the warm wind from the air conditioner brought a buzzing sound.

Rachel turned her head to look out of the window. Tracy suddenly asked, "Is her son your friend?"

Hearing that, Rachel was stunned. They didn't say anything when Mrs. Yang gave her the phone. Why did Tracy know that she had a son? After thinking for a while, she couldn't figure out the reason. Finally, she answered truthfully, "We knew each other in the hospital before."

Tracy nodded and said nothing. She just patted the back of the driver's chair and said, "Play some music."

It was rare that there was no traffic jam on the streets on weekends. Soon, they arrived at the gate of the shopping mall. The driver stopped the car. After saying goodbye, Rachel got out of the car.

In the past, she and Tracy were not close to each other. When the two sat together, they were mostly speechless. After what happened last time, it seemed that the atmosphere between them was even

more awkward.

The driver started the car again and asked as usual, "Mrs. Fu, are you going home now?"

Tracy opened her eyes and said in a cold voice, "No, go back to my friend's."

Coincidentally, Mrs. Yang was a friend of Tracy. The two of them had made an appointment to go shopping together before. Just now, she was sending her home, but she didn't expect that she would know that Rachel had come out of her house.

Tracy knew Mrs. Yang very well. Her attitude and eyes just now were very strange.

When they arrived at the community again, Tracy called Mrs. Yang to come down. The two sat in the car, and the driver went down to stand aside and smoke.

Tracy smiled and asked, "Why did Rachel suddenly go to your home just now?"

"I don't know." Mrs. Yang patted Tracy's hand on her lap and said mysteriously, "But I just went back to ask my grandson, he said that he called her and that they had dinner together before."

Tracy frowned and thought, 'Am I being paranoid?'

When she was about to smile, Mrs. Yang suddenly made her heart tremble.

With a joyful look on her face, Mrs. Yang said with a smile, "Didn't I ask you to help my son check if there is any suitable woman? I don't think it's necessary now. I think Dr. Rachel is good and my grandson likes her very much."

For a moment, Tracy's face suddenly darkened, but she still forced a smile and said perfunctorily, "It's good."

She was not satisfied with Rachel and hoped that she could leave Jack. But now hearing this, Tracy felt a little unhappy.

After all, dump someone and been dumped was totally different.

Having nothing else to do, Jonathan was sitting in the courtyard and playing chess with himself. As soon as he put down the black and picked up the white to think about where to put it, he heard Tracy shouting, "Now you are the most free and unrestrained. Are you still in the mood to play chess at home? Don't you know that?"

"What happened? Why are you so anxious?" Without raising his head, Jonathan still stared at the chessboard in front of him.

Tracy snorted and sat down opposite angrily, "Guess who I met just now?"

"How do I know?" Jonathan replied casually, with all his attention on the chess piece in front of him.

Tracy frowned and took the two boxes of chess pieces and put them on her legs. Seeing this, Jonathan was a little dissatisfied. "Why did you take away all my chess?"

"If I don't take it away, will you listen to me carefully?"

Hearing this, Jonathan shook his head helplessly and had to compromise. "Then tell me, I'm listening."

In the next few minutes, Tracy told Jonathan in detail that Rachel appeared in the Yang family. The frown on Jonathan's forehead deepened. After she finished speaking, without thinking, he said directly, "It's impossible. I know Rachel well. She will never do such a thing."

"You don't know her well. Now I begin to doubt if the baby in her belly is our grandson or not!"

As soon as Tracy finished her words, Jonathan suddenly raised his hand and thumped the table heavily. The stones on the chessboard also trembled several times and instantly became chaotic. He immediately stood up and shouted, "It's no big deal to meet a friend. Don't talk nonsense here. You are not allowed to mention one more word again!"

Looking at his angry face, Tracy was a little unwilling. She put the chess box heavily on the table and fought back, "I'm Jack's mother. I won't let my son a cuckold."

"Cuckold?" Jonathan glared at her. "Jack has done a lot of ridiculous things outside! Why didn't you say one or two good words for Rachel?"

"I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense about this matter! Otherwise, I..."

Tracy raised her chin, "You what?"

"Unreasonable!"

Jonathan snorted angrily. He had to turn around and walk to the study on the second floor. Sitting on the main chair, he thought about it for a while. Finally, he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Rachel's number.

At this time, Rachel and Celia came out of a men's clothing shop.

Celia puckered her lips slightly and said bitterly, "Rachel, why is it so difficult to buy something? I don't know what I should buy for Marcus."

She asked, "Rachel, what did you send to Jack on his birthday?"

'A birthday present?'

Rachel thought about it carefully. They had been together for a long time, but she had never prepared any birthday gift for him. There was a pen counter in front of them. She pointed at it and suggested, "How about going to have a look and buy him a pen?"

"Okay."

As soon as she entered the shop, the waiter came up to her. Hearing Celia's request, she picked up a few pens from the counter and put them on the table for her to choose slowly.

Feeling the vibration of her phone in her bag and seeing the name of Jonathan, Rachel raised her hand and patted on Celia's shoulder. Then she walked to the door of the shop and answered, "Jonathan, I was walking just now, but I didn't hear the phone ring. What's up?" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Do you have time to come out and have a seat? I'm almost at the gate of the Silver Land Mall."

After thinking for a while, Rachel agreed. When she returned to the shop, she found that Celia had picked out two pens and held them in her hands. She asked worriedly, "Rachel, look at these two pens. Which one is more suitable for Marcus?"

Taking it over and looking at it carefully, she returned one to the waiter, and handed the other to Celia. She said in a low voice, "This one looks younger."

"Okay, please pack it for me. Don't forget to make it beautiful." Celia exhorted worriedly.

Then, Rachel said that she had something to do later and had to leave in advance. Although Celia was a little unhappy, he saw that the gift had been chosen and let her go after a few words.

As soon as Rachel took the elevator to the first floor of the shopping mall, she saw Jonathan coming in from the outside. He pointed at a coffee shop and said slowly, "Go inside and have a rest."

"Okay."

Since Rachel was pregnant, she had already stopped drinking coffee. And Jonathan didn't drink coffee all the time, so the two of them only ordered two cups of water. It was a little strange for them compared with others in the shop.

Jonathan took a sip of tea and asked, "How are you these days?"

Rachel smiled faintly. "I'm fine."

He asked, "How is the baby?"

"Everything is fine."

Shaking the glass of water gently, Rachel looked up at Jonathan and smiled, "You didn't come to me just to ask me about this, did you? If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Hearing what she said, Jonathan coughed awkwardly and tried to pretend as if nothing had happened. "Well, I heard that Jack has been discharged from the hospital. He should have gone home, right? Is everything okay between you two?"

As a father-in-law, he shouldn't have been the one to worry about the relationship between his son and his daughter-in-law. However, the situation of his family was too complicated, coupled with what Tracy said to him just now, he was worried.

Although he criticized her severely on the spot, there was still a trace of doubt in his heart. Then he called Rachel out and wanted to know the specific situation.

Rachel didn't know what he was thinking, so she planned to tell him the truth. But when she thought of the words that the lawyer said before he left when she signed the divorce agreement that day, she held it back. She pursed her lips and said lightly, "Jack and I are good. Jonathan, don't worry."

Jonathan heaved a heavy sigh, with concern in his turbid eyes. After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Rachel, don't take others' words seriously. At that time, I insisted on letting you marry Jack because I wanted someone to take care of you. But if it made you unhappy, I would not object to your divorce with Jack."

Rachel kept silent and said nothing.

After a moment of silence, Jonathan thought for a while and said cautiously, "Don't worry. I won't ask the grandson to stay in the Fu family. It's better for the child to grow up with his mother, as long as you don't let him contact with the Fu family."
