My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 397

Rachel looked away without saying anything. She didn't know how to face Tracy and Jonathan.

She grew up with these two people, and she knew how much she meant to them. Although Tracy had been lukewarm towards her since she was a child, she knew she cared for her. Jonathan, on the other hand, had always treated her like a daughter.

However, when she thought about her parents, she couldn't help feeling bitter.

Jonathan coughed to clear his throat and turned to look at Bill, who was next to Rachel. With a strange expression, he said, "Mr. Bill, I hope you don't mind. We have something to talk to Rachel in private. Could you leave us for a moment?"

"Sure."

Bill was about to walk away when Rachel suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Bill is not an outsider. Whatever you want to say to me, just say it in his presence."

She deliberately let Bill stay because she didn't want to talk about anything related to Jack. And knowing Jonathan, she knew he wouldn't say anything in front of an outsider. As expected, Jonathan was rendered speechless. He subconsciously touched his nose out of embarrassment. There was a trace of helplessness in his eyes.

When Tracy saw Rachel's hand on Bill's arm, she suddenly remembered Jack's miserable situation. Jack had been having a hard time while Rachel immediately hooked up with another man in just a few days. This thought made her more furious.

She snorted and said in an unpleasant tone, "Rachel, even if you and Jack are over, we have raised you since you were a child. Why do you make it difficult for us to talk to you?"

Upon hearing Tracy mentioning her childhood, Rachel's face darkened.

Jonathan noticed it, so he turned and glared at Tracy. "Can you just shut up?"

Dissatisfaction was written all over Tracy's face, but she didn't say anything more. She crossed her arms over her chest and turned around. She didn't want to look at them again.

Rachel smiled faintly. All of a sudden, she felt tired of what was going on. With a sigh, she said, "I don't want to talk about the past anymore. And for the future, my only wish is to live on my own."

Jonathan immediately got it. Rachel wanted to let them know that she didn't want them to disturb her life from now on. What else could he say?

He raised his head and looked at her. With creased brows, a glimmer of gloom flashed across his turbid eyes. He knew that she was a glib talker, but he didn't expect that she would say something like that before he could even say a word. Now, he couldn't find a way to retort.

Since she had been standing there for a while, Rachel felt a little uncomfortable.

She subconsciously put her hands on her belly, but upon realizing that she was standing in front of them, she put her hands down and lowered her body. She said, "Take good care of yourselves."

It was the only thing she could say.

Even if she wanted to hate them, she couldn't. After all, they had taken care of her for so many years since her parents passed away. She only left because the pain in her heart was too much for her to bear.

"Rachel..." Jonathan's voice choked as he sob upon hearing Rachel's last sentence.

He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to start.

Rachel held Bill's arm again and said, "Let's go."

Without saying anything, Bill nodded at Jonathan and Tracy slightly. He then looked at Rachel gently and said, "Be careful." Jonathan and Tracy stood still and watched them leave. In the end, all they could do was sigh silently.

As soon as Rachel got into the car, Bill took a cushion from the back seat and put it behind her. He then adjusted the seat to make her feel comfortable. Seeing that she was now seated cozily, he heaved a sigh of relief and turned to the driver's seat.

Rachel was silent, but she was frowning. She couldn't deny the fact that she was worried.

Since Jonathan and Tracy found the hospital, did it also mean that they knew about her pregnancy?

Seeing that she was lost in thoughts,

Bill bent over to fasten her seat belt, which she hadn't touched for a long time.

She was taken aback by his action.

"You are so absent-minded. What are you thinking about?" Bill asked slowly instead of starting the car.

"Nothing," she replied. But on second thought, she asked, "Can you do me a favor?"

"What is it? I will try my best to help you." He was willing to do everything just to make her happy. To his delight, she smiled.

"Can you help me find my attending doctor? I don't want the Fu family to know that I'm pregnant."

"Don't worry about that. I have already arranged everything for you."

She felt relieved with what he said but also surprised at the same time.
