My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 214

Marcus widened his eyes in surprise. "She is pregnant?"

Henry nodded with a hint of pride on his face.

For a moment after seeing Henry's confirmation, Marcus was speechless with excitement.

Finally, he dramatically put both his hands over his chest as if he was gasping for breath and exclaimed, "Oh, my God, this is crazy. We didn't even have the time to digest the fact that you're getting married and now, you're springing this on us!"

Henry shrugged. "All I wanted to tell you was that I'm getting married," he said casually.

"Yeah, well, you were being so obvious that I would have to be an idiot to not guess it," Marcus muttered playfully.

All of them laughed and congratulated Henry from the bottom of their hearts. The whole room was lit up by the jovial mood of this group of friends.

But Rachel, who had never imagined that she would hear such news, was itching to talk to her friend.

It was 1 p.m. when they finished lunch, but she had a lunch break until half past two in the afternoon and it would take barely ten minutes to get back to the hospital, so she was in no hurry to

leave.

But first things first; she excused herself from the table, went to a quiet corner, and called Lea.

It was impossible for Lea to not tell her that she was going to get married.

As she had expected, Lea was surprised to hear what had happened at lunch. "What did you say? He took out the household certificate?" she asked.

Rachel chuckled. "Yes, to show us that you're getting married."

"He's crazy." Lea shook her head and cursed Henry, but there was a fondness in her voice. "Did he say anything else?" "Yes.

He said that he was going to be the first to get married among them, but Jack immediately argued with him."

Lea smiled; she could almost imagine this amusing scene in her head.

"He just told us that he is going to be a father in a roundabout way," Rachel added.

"He's insane!" Lea said with a laugh. The more Rachel described it, the more Lea felt like she had been there too.

Rachel sighed happily. "Marcus told us that he'd never seen such a silly Henry before."

Lea's grin widened even more. "He told me that he would go home to talk to his parents about this, but he never said anything about getting married. I guess he just wanted to give me a surprise. Well, I've already heard it from you now."

Rachel bit her lip, realizing that she might have made a mistake. "Oh, Henry will hate me so much if he finds out! I think you'd better pretend to be surprised when he tells you."

Meanwhile, Jack was standing in the corridor and lighting up a cigarette when he heard footsteps approaching him. He turned his head and saw Henry walking toward him with a smile on his face.

Having known Henry for so many years, Jack could tell that the smile on his face was a genuine one.

In fact, Henry's expression was so cheerful that he even looked a little silly, just like Marcus had said.

Jack flicked the ash from his cigarette. "What? Why do you look so happy?"

In fact, Henry was trying to suppress his joy, but he just couldn't. Placing his fist in front of his mouth, he cleared his throat. "You don't understand," he said meaningfully, patting Jack on the shoulder.

"What do you mean?" Jack sneered.

'You don't understand the happiness of getting married to the one you love.'

These words were on the tip of Henry's tongue, but he swallowed them and shook his head with a smile.

When Rachel finally returned to the hospital after her lunch break, her face was lit up like the morning sun. Everyone who saw her couldn't help but ask, "Dr. Rachel, you've been smiling ever since you got back from lunch. Did something good happen?"

"My friend is getting married,"

Rachel said immediately without thinking about

She had no intention of hiding the truth from them. In fact, she was glad to share this good news with everyone.

The others were surprised.

All these years, Rachel had never talked about her private affairs with any of her colleagues.

Now that she had finally shared something with them, they couldn't help but be taken by surprise.

Rachel tilted her head thoughtfully, and then added with a laugh, "Well, she finally found her Mr. Right. It's not easy, you know."

Rachel's colleagues were even more surprised now. Not only was Rachel sharing her private affairs with them, she was also speaking in such a casual way.

Although they weren't familiar with her or her friend, they congratulated her happily.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" one of them joked tentatively.

It was rumored among the staff that Rachel was dating Lucas, but no one had ever dared to ask either of them directly. Now that they had the opportunity to find out, they didn't want to miss it. However, the answer they received was far beyond their expectations.

The elegant woman in front of them smiled slowly. "I'm married."

All her colleagues exchanged looks of pure disbelief, and some of their jaws even dropped in shock.

Rachel had never mentioned that she was married before! Besides, there was no wedding ring on her finger. How could she be married?

"Did you get married during your long vacation?" another person asked.
