Have I Told You Lately

Chapter 63: I Will Not See You Torturing Yourself

“I will not do these meaningless confrontations. It doesn’t matter who the child follows as long as they

grow up healthily. I won’t mind so much.” Kenneth said expressionlessly at her.

Rachel was surprised.

She didn’t think that he would be so relaxed about it. Or did he just say that but doesn’t mean it.

“I am the child’s mother and I will not let them suffer a single bid. Since you don’t mind, then you don’t

have to come. When they are born, I will allow you to visit them.

Kenneth tilted his head, smiled, and said, “You can’t even take care of your mother. Do you think that

you can take care of yourself? Osmond has his own daughter; do you expect him to be by your side?

Rachel, now I’m doubtful that you can give birth to them.

“…”

Rachel was immediately rendered speechless. Her face flushed red as she glared angrily at him.

What was meant by that?

“I’ll be better without you.”

He smiled, “Really? Going about every day, entertaining customers, and going on business trips. Do

you think that they are stuck in your belly? How many pregnant women are like you?”

Rachel’s expression changed and she bit her lips, “You don’t have to bother.”

If it wasn’t for the divorce, if her father wasn’t in jail, if she wasn’t in need of money, if all these didn’t

happen… of course she hoped that she could be like the others and rest at home for the pregnancy.

But she couldn’t say these since she was the one who wanted the divorce. The pregnancy was an

accident. Her father’s sentence was due to his own fault and had nothing to do with him. They had

divorced and saying all these were meaningless.

Forget it; she didn’t want to continue quarreling with him. Rachel turned to leave.

Kenneth grabbed her arm after realizing that his words were too harsh. He changed his tone and said,

“Since they are my child, I will not shirk my responsibilities. Before seeing the child being born healthily,

I won’t want to see you torturing yourself.”

“…”

Rachel was stunned as if her heart was stabbed.

She knew that he wasn’t wrong to do it for the child, but her disappointment could be seen.

No matter what, he wouldn’t like her.

She flung down his arm and left after saying.

“Do as you wish.”

Kenneth looked at her walking away and relaxed as if he had heaved a breath of relief. His expression

was mixed and helpless.

It looked like he needed to do this slowly.

Rachel walked down from the rooftop and Osmond was waiting for her below. When he saw her, he

asked worriedly, “Is everything alright?”

“What does Mr. Cox mean by this? The child is mine, how can I allow anything to happen to her?”

Kenneth emerged from behind her. His slim and tall body stood by the door with a cold smile.

Rachel turned and looked at him, “Why haven’t you left?”

“The person who should leave isn’t me! It’s inconvenient for Mr. Cox to bring along a child to look after

an old person.” His tone was very even but anyone could understand what he meant.

Osmond held onto Monica and looked sullen and smiled, “Mr. Shawn, taking care of Auntie and Rach

are my responsibilities. There isn’t any consideration about convenience. On the contrary, with Mr.

Shawn here, you had brought Rach some inconveniences.”

Theresa was on the bed listening to the conversation and knew that Kenneth must know the identity of

the child. She felt guilty for keeping it from him, but now Theresa didn’t know who she should help.

After pondering for a moment, she laughed, “Hey… Osmond, Kenneth, since you are busy, why don’t

you go back. It’s enough for Rach to be around for me. I’m fine here, and there are so many nurses

here. There isn’t a need for so many people to be here.”

Rachel heard and she gave a huge thumbs-up to her mom in her heart. The elderly are still wiser. This

kind of awkward situation was impossible for her to side with either party and it was best for all to leave.

Kenneth was here for the children, Osmond was here because of her. So Rachel was at a loss of how

to settle the situation.

She also learned from her mother and mustered a fake smile, “Mr. Shawn, I’ve completed my check up

and I’m fine, the children are fine too. You can rest assured and leave.”

She then turned towards Osmond and her tone was a lot gentler, “Osmond, thanks for your time today.

I’ll take care of my mom, you can go home too.”
