My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 288

The phone in Celine's hand was the latest model. Baron had given her that after she had begged him many times.

There was no need to release her anger on her phone.

At this point, she might as well plan her strategy.

In the small living room, she stomped back and forth. Soon enough, the phone in her hand vibrated.

"Hello? What's wrong?" The caller was one of her close friends.

"Celine, I just saw your boyfriend enter a restaurant with a woman. They looked really intimate with one another."

Celine gritted her teeth as her other hand balled into a fist.

When she calmed down, she burst into laughter. "Is she the one with blonde hair?"

"Yes, you have seen her?"

"I haven't, but Baron told me about her. He tried to drive her away multiple times, but it didn't seem to work. She keeps pestering him.

He's just playing with her."

Actually, Celine was so angry that she had to restrain herself from smashing her phone.

"That's good." Obviously, the person on the other end of the line didn't believe her words, but she knew that it would be meaningless to continue this. Without another word, she hung up the phone.

"That scumbag!"

Celine cursed out loud. She couldn't even count how many people called her to snitch on her boyfriend.

Although they sounded worried about her, they actually just called to mock her.

How many of her so-called friends treated her sincerely?

She snorted.

The only person who had ever been real with her was Jack, and she wanted him back.

The weekend life was short and peaceful.

When Rachel woke up in the morning, she was like a child praying that today was still Sunday.

Unfortunately, that wasn't so. After arriving at the hospital, she changed into her white gown and started her rounds around the wards.

This was part of her schedule every day.

Soon, when she arrived at the ward to where Gigi was, she could hear Gigi arguing with her husband. It seemed that the two of them had not reached an agreement on whether they should have an abortion.

As Rachel was about to get the medical record at the end of the bed, her arm was grabbed by the woman's husband.

He gazed at her helplessly. "Doctor, please help me convince Gigi that she couldn't keep this baby," he implored. "I've been trying to talk to her for two days, but she still wouldn't listen to me."

"Please calm down."

After all, this was a matter between husband and wife.

No matter what she'd say, they would never listen to an outsider. However, Gigi was her patient, and if this could save her, then she was going to try to talk to her.

Rachel took a deep breath and stepped forward. "Miss Yang, I know that this baby is very important to you, but your heart problem might prove difficult for you to have this baby. You'll likely lose your life if you give birth to this child. Do you want to leave your husband with your child in a world where you wouldn't be able to accompany them?"

Rachel wasn't good at persuading people. She wasn't the most empathic person in the room, so her words were put more bluntly and straightforward.

Gigi gazed at her bulging stomach. "Doctor, you don't have a baby, do you? You wouldn't understand the connection I felt to my baby. I felt it grow in my belly. I just can't do it."

She gazed up at her. "You're a great doctor. You must have some solution right?"

Rachel sighed. She had already said what she wanted to say. At this point, she knew that whatever she said might not be able to change Gigi's mind.

"If you don't want to have an abortion, then you could get discharged today. But I truly hope that you can change your mind."

Soon enough, her rounds came to an end. Without another word, Rachel turned and walked back to her office.

With a fruit basket in her hand, Celine walked into one of the wards. A bright smile slid into her lips as she said, "Gigi, I'm here to visit you."

She had known Gigi for several years. Back then, she was still a waitress in the hotel. In fact, she happened to be one of Gigi's subordinates.

Being in the same field, they came to get to know each other.

Honestly, if it wasn't for Gigi being hospitalized in the same hospital Rachel worked at, Celine wouldn't have come.

She only came to give Rachel more trouble.

Since Jack refused to see her, she decided to change her strategy.

Gigi was a little surprised. She quickly asked, "Celine, why are you here?"

"I'm here to visit you, silly," Celine said softly. "What did the doctor say? Is there any solution?"

"Dr. Rachel said that as the baby grows, it will only increase the burden in my heart."

Celine wasn't in the mood to listen to her anymore. The moment she heard the woman's name, her ears perked up. "Dr. Rachel?"
