My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 211

Jack felt confused by Rachel's rejection. He lifted the quilt, got up and held her firmly. He looked at her with a wide flattering smile. "Honey, stop it!"

He dragged her back to the bed and rolled over on top of her again. She felt that he wouldn't give up, so she pushed him angrily.

"Jack!" she exclaimed in an angry voice. "I said I don't want to. Can you stop forcing me?"

When he noticed that she was a little angry, Jack's eyes immediately sank. He gently caressed her frowning eyebrows with his fingers and said to her gently, "What's wrong? Are you mad at me?"

Rachel didn't know what was wrong with herself. She suddenly felt wronged, so she pushed him away. She turned over and sat up at the edge of the bed, her eyes red.

Jack felt startled. He wanted to calm her down, but he didn't dared to touch her. He carefully reflected on what he could've possible done that made her feel this way.

After thinking for some time, he could only think that he displeased her because he insisted on having sex with her.

All he could do was coax her. "Honey, please don't be angry. I did not mean to force you." He wetted his lips with his tongue and then reached out his arms to embrace her. "You know I would never do that.

Don't be angry anymore, okay? And don't cry."

Rachel did not know how to explain it to him. Her mood changed so fast. She took a deep breath, pursed her lips and stared briefly at the ceiling. After the inexplicable sadness passed, she felt a little ashamed of herself.

She closed her eyes hard until her mood eased. "I'm just in a bad mood. I didn't mean to lose my temper," she whispered gently to him.

Jack kissed her between her eyebrows and smiled at her. "You don't have to explain anything to me. It's my fault. If you're unhappy about anything, you can throw all of your frustrations at me."

There was no need to apologize to him for anything. Marriage was about consideration. He felt bad that Rachel thought that she had to apologize.

She nodded gently at him and fully understood what he meant. So, she let him hold her in his arms and sat on the bed with him.

"What's wrong? You look so upset."

"I don't know." Rachel felt irritated about something but she didn't know what it was. She felt reluctant to do anything with Jack and she didn't know why. She just wanted to lie down in the bed alone and stare blankly at the ceiling.

But she felt that it would be too much to push him away a third time. There was a sting in her heart when the thought of it struck her.

During regular days, there was no way that she would behave this way. If she was feeling off, she'd normally just wear a long face and then ignore him. But at that moment, she felt depressed and

everything just felt intolerable to her.

"Maybe my period is coming," Rachel said in a soft voice. She wondered if it was truly the case.

"Your period?" Jack asked with a raised eyebrow. He had no idea what she was talking about. After seeing the embarrassed look on her face, he finally understood what she meant by those words.

He tapped his nose as a reaction to his understanding of how emotionally unstable women could be when they approached their periods.

Jack then felt the need to consider what to do next in that kind of situation.

"Would you like to have a cup of red date tea?" he immediately asked when he had recovered.

Rachel was surprised with his offer and felt like laughing. "But we don't have red dates at home," she complained with a slight smile.

Jack briefly glanced at his watch. "Well, it doesn't matter. We can have someone send some here," Jack replied.

"But it's already so late. It would be inconsiderate of us to do so," she explained.

"Then I'll buy some myself!" he declared immediately. He got up as soon as he finished speaking and started to change his clothes. "You don't have to do that. I'm just in a bad mood. My period is not coming now," Rachel immediately said.

Jack turned around to her immediately with a serious look on his face. "But how do I make you feel better?" he asked. His actions made Rachel feel warm in her heart. "It's okay. I feel better now," she explained.

He raised an eyebrow at her and then smiled. "So, it seems that as long as I don't provoke you, you'll feel better," he joked.

"Yes, I think you're right." Rachel agreed to his idea immediately.

"You're kidding!"

They talked for a while and the longer they talked, the more Jack understood her feelings. He eventually went out to make her a glass of warm milk and then fetched her laptop.

Jack pushed Rachel back to the bed when he got back and handed her the milk.

He then placed a small desk on the bed and placed the laptop on it.

Rachel looked puzzled as she watched him. "What are you doing?" she asked him in a puzzled tone of voice.

'Does he plan to work at this time?' she wondered.

Jack turned the laptop on and then opened a browser. "Let's watch something."

The first thought that Rachel had in mind was that Jack would open a website like Pornhub, but she immediately reconsidered and concluded that it would be impossible for Jack to do that.

He quickly moved his fingers on the mouse pad and tapped the keyboard a few times. Finally, he found a foreign comedy movie and played it. "I've seen this movie before. It's not bad."
