Chapter 91: I Don’t Owe You
On the contrary, he owed her a lot. If she didn't have these two children, perhaps she would have started a new life and did not need to endure so many hardships. Was it for the good of the kids?
Rachel's heart began to turn cold and her fingers gripped the bed sheets. She looked at him for several seconds and then turned to look outside the window and scoffed, "Of course I don't owe you and never hid from you. But you are like a snake and a scorpion who kept pestering me. I really think that your mother should look for a woman to bear a child for you. Otherwise, you won't be able to break out of this vicious cycle and keep going round in circles."
Kenneth's handsome face began to tighten and he said coldly, "You don't have to worry about me having a child with another woman. But before the two inside you are born, I will continue to circle around you. You will have to endure even if you are frustrated."
"You!" Rachel was totally stumped.
He knew that she wasn't feeling well and didn't want to argue with her. He adjusted her blanket for her emotionlessly, gently pinched her cheeks, and said, "Have a good rest, I'll consult the doctor." Rachel was speechless.
After he left, Rachel stared at the ceiling for a long time before she fell asleep.
Miles and Magi went to the hospital together in the afternoon. Rachel was in a stalemate with Kenneth with regards to leaving the hospital. She felt that she was fine after she rested a day. Apart from being slightly weak, she could walk around steadily. She was not sick and couldn't take any medicine because she was pregnant. If she stayed in the hospital she would simply be laying on the bed so why couldn't she lay on her bed at home instead? That would free up a bed for the hospital.
Furthermore, she was considered to be on a business trip and she was to return to City N tomorrow. Even if she were to take leave from work, she wanted to rest at home. Additionally, how was she going to explain to her company about being admitted to the hospital due to a fever?
But that man wouldn't listen to her reasons. He left the room after some cold-hearted words.
"Rachel, why don't you remain in the hospital for another day? Miles and I will go back to City N first." Magi noticed that she didn't look well and suggested.
Miles sat on the chair next to the bed and nodded. He smiled warmly, "Since Mr. Shawn is here, there isn't anything for us to do."
Rachel glared at him and said, "Do you think that everyone's as free as you? I'm not crippled and can walk on my own. Why can't I take a flight back? Furthermore, the costs here are twice of City N. Will you pay for my expenses?"
Miles was speechless and didn't know how to respond. Furthermore, because Magi was present, he could not mention about Rachel's pregnancy.
At this moment, Kenneth pushed open the door and entered the room. He tossed a phone onto her hands, "Your Mr. Lopez is calling."
Rachel was speechless. She didn't know what expression should she have when she faced him. Furthermore, there were two other sets of eyes looking at them.
She ground her teeth and smiled before raising the phone to her ear and said, "Mr. Lopez."
"Hey, Rachel. I heard from Mr. Shawn that you are sick over there. Are you feeling better now?"
Rachel endeavored to speak calmly, "Yes, I'm fine now. I can go back tomorrow."
"Oh, no hurry, no hurry... you should stay two more days. Mr. Shawn said that his company needs your help. This is a good chance for you to represent Vantage Inc to learn. Just report to me when you are back."
Rachel was speechless.
Rachel listened to him blabbering on and was enduring while her expression darkened, "Mr. Lopez..."
Before she could say anything, Mr. Lopez interrupted her, "Oh yes, have Miles and Magi come back first. So it's decided. I'm having a meeting now...
"Mr. Lopez..." All of her words were stuck in her throat. Rachel held to her phone tightly and took a deep breath and was fuming mad.
It was obvious that Mr. Lopez had a side deal and was worried that she would question him. That was why he quickly cut off the phone call. "Rachel, what did Mr. Lopez say?" Magi asked curiously.
Miles laughed, "It must be a new assignment for Rachel to stay for a few more days while we go back first."000
bye."
