Stuck in you

Chapter 287 The Weekend

After Rachel dealt with Gigi, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated, indicating that there was a call.

Taking a look, Rachel brought the phone to her ear. "Hi, Dad."

"Rachel, are you going to get off work now? Tomorrow is the weekend. How about joining us for dinner?"

Although Jonathan had said he wouldn't interfere in Jack and Rachel's relationship anymore,

he still couldn't help but keep an eye on them.

Originally, he planned to go to Rachel's place and stay there for the night, but Tracy rejected the idea. "Can't you just let them come over?" she snapped impatiently.

That was why he made the call.

Rachel thought for a while before nodding. "I'll come by with Jack once I get off work."

When her husband arrived to pick her up, she quickly told him to go to the Fu family residence.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Rachel gazed out of the window.

When she came out of the hospital, she passed by the ward where Gigi was in. Naturally, she couldn't help but overhear the couple arguing over their baby.

They were on two opposing sides, and their voices were getting louder and louder that anyone in the vicinity could hear what they were arguing about.

At that point, it was hard to tell who was right or wrong.

Inside the car, the beeping sound continued.

Jack cleared his throat and reminded her, "Fasten your seat belt."

"Oh, I forgot." Rachel finally snapped back into her senses as she plugged her seat belt back in. However, it was evident that she was still in a daze.

Jack frowned, noticing that she was distracted.

"What happened at work?"

Since he had already solved the Holley problem, he asked the person he had hired to protect Rachel to leave.

Rachel sighed. "Today, a patient was sent to the hospital. Her condition is not good enough for her to get pregnant. In fact, if she forced it, she could die. She wants to give birth, but her husband doesn't agree with her."

"She should abort it," he answered without hesitation.

In his eyes, his wife was more important than his unborn child.

Rachel smiled. 'Perhaps that's the difference between men and women. While men place importance on what they could see in present, women place more importance on what could've been in the future.'

"You'll be a great mom," he added.

The corners of her lips rose slightly, and her originally depressed mood was alleviated.

She slowly closed her eyes. "I'm a little tired today, so I'll take a nap," she said softly. "Call me when we've arrived."
