My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 296

The woman was Iris.

Yesterday afternoon, Lucas had received a call from one of Iris' colleagues. He was told that she had fainted because of a high fever. When she woke up, she refused to go to the hospital and even insisted that they take her home.

Lucas was so worried about her that he asked Rachel to come with him, given that if he showed up, Iris wouldn't even bother looking at him.

"I remember when Lucas..." Iris paused and smiled. "Forget it. I'll just treat you to a meal to thank you."

Rachel waved her hand. "It's really no problem."

She took out some medicine from her bag and placed it on the bedside table. "I've prescribed some medicine for you. Remember to take it half an hour after you finish your porridge."

Iris struggled to sit up. "How much is it? I'll give you the money."

Placing a hand on her shoulder, Rachel shook her head. "It's deducted from my medical card. I didn't pay for it,"

she said, glancing at her watch. "It's late. I have to go now. Get some rest, okay?" "Be careful on your way back," Isis called out in gratitude.

Lucas had been sitting in the car this entire time. When he saw Rachel come out, the first thing he said was, "Is she feeling better?"

"Better than yesterday. Her fever is gone." After fastening her seat belt, she turned to him. "Do you mind driving me home? Thank you."

"I'm the one who should be thanking you."

He chuckled.

Rachel closed her eyes for a bit.

After parking the car by the gates of the community, Lucas looked at her. "We're here."

"I didn't expect to fall asleep."

With an embarrassed smile threading across her lips, Rachel got out of the car.

Lucas' voice echoed from behind her.

"Thank you for helping me these past two days!"

"Do you really have to be so polite?"

At that time, a pair of eyes glared at the two people. His hands clenched into fists as he trembled in anger.

Suddenly, he wasn't able to hold back anymore. Not being able to restrain himself, Jack grabbed Lucas' collar and punched him in the face.

"Jack, what the hell?" Rachel's eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing that Lucas had fallen to the ground, she ran up to him. "Are you okay?" she hurriedly asked. "Are you hurt?"

"I'm fine." Rubbing the corner of his mouth, he stumbled upwards and stayed silent.

Staring at the way she held his arm, Jack's eyes were blazing with anger. "Where did you go this afternoon?" he demanded.

In the afternoon, since she didn't came to see him, Jack didn't bother to rest. Without another thought, he asked Austin to send him to the hospital.

He wanted to be the one to tell her that he had a vasectomy reversal and they could have a baby.

However, when he arrived at the hospital, he didn't see her. It wasn't until he asked one of the nurses that he found that she and Lucas had gone out.

'Where did they go? What are they doing?'

Different questions filled his mind one after the other.

After calming himself down, he was about to leave when he heard some of the nurses gossiping.

"Rachel rarely asks for a leave, yet she did it for the last two days to go out with Lucas. What do you think they're doing?"

"How would I know? I just saw her husband come over, so this must be a big deal."

"Really? Did something happen? You know, I used to think that Lucas and Rachel would be together."

They didn't realize that the person they were talking about was right behind them.

Jack had waited outside Rachel's place for a long time. What he didn't expect was for Lucas to drive her back.

Just then, jealousy and anger had made him lose all his senses.

Rachel glared at him. "It has nothing to do with you."

There was no way she was going to forgive him for his ludicrous act!

She shot Lucas an apologetic look. "How about you go back first? Is there a first aid kit in your house? You have to deal with the wound on the corner of your mouth."

After saying that, she withdrew her hand and walked right up the stairs without looking back. Lucas sighed and returned to his car.
