Chapter 420 Invited To Dinner
"Actually, I have another request."
He pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "My two mothers are both sick and lying on the bed. I have to deal with my wife's funeral and can't take care of my son. Dr. Rachel, can you do me a favor?"
Before Rachel could answer, he said anxiously, "Don't worry. I will pay you, but it may not be very high. After all, I..." This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
His face turned red. Seeing that Rachel didn't say anything for a long time, he said, "I know it's a little difficult to make this request, so Dr. Rachel, if you feel embarrassed, I'll think of other ways."
After saying that, he said goodbye and walked outside. But at this time, Rachel called him.
Jimmy turned around, his eyes lit up, "Dr. Rachel, will you agree to my unreasonable request?"
Without answering, Rachel lowered her head, opened her drawer and took out a business card. "Mr. Jimmy, you can contact this aunt. Then you tell her that I introduced her to you. Maybe she can be a little cheaper."
This was the greatest help she could give.
In the past, when she was in the emergency room, there were often a few children being sent to the hospital all of a sudden, but no parents were around. At that time, they would contact the aunts who were specialized in taking care of children to help them. And the name card just now was an auntie whom Rachel was relatively familiar with and thought more responsible.
Jimmy took it over with his hands, "Thank you, Dr. Rachel. I'll call her right away."
After he left, Rachel looked at the medical records on her right and the half completed application report on the computer yesterday. She had planned to finish this report today and send it to the leader
for signature, so as to complete the relief grand as soon as possible. But who would have thought that things would happen so suddenly?
When she went to the tea room with the cup in her hand, Rachel could vaguely hear her colleagues talking about this matter. Some of them sighed that they had a bad luck, and some also sighed that the two of them were in good relationship.
She poured herself a glass of hot water and was about to go back to her office when she was stopped by them. A girl asked, "Dr. Rachel, did you think that the two of them were very affectionate when you went to the ward yesterday?"
"Not bad." Rachel didn't pay any attention to what happened yesterday.
At this time, another colleague patted the girl on the shoulder, covered her mouth and laughed, "I heard that Dr. Rachel and her husband have a good relationship. You must ask the wrong person."
'When does this rumor come from the hospital?'
Rachel thought for a while and smiled. She didn't answer them and walked to the office. The idea of being suppressed by her finally came to her mind again.
'Jack... How is he?'
On the other side, Jack looked at Michael, who was sitting on the sofa and eating oranges with his legs crossed, and asked coldly, "Don't you really know what's going on with Rachel?"
Almost everyone who came to visit him would be asked by him, but they answered almost the same.
With a guilty conscience, Michael looked down at the orange in his hand and replied casually, "How could I know?"
"Michael!" Jack raised his voice and called out his name word by word.
Suddenly, Michael raised his head and frowned helplessly. "I really don't know. Don't call me so loudly. You'd better recover as soon as possible and go to find her yourself."
He couldn't help but whisper in his heart. He didn't know what was wrong with Lea who threatened him not tell Jack the condition of Rachel. If there wasn't something known by Lea, he would definitely choose to be an honest friend at the moment.
Jack frowned and said in a low voice, "Call her now."
Michael was taken aback and didn't expect that he would say so. When he was about to find an excuse to avoid it, Tracy came in and asked with a smile, "Who are you calling?"
He immediately gave the peeled orange to Tracy as if he had seen a life-saving straw with a smile and warmly said, "Auntie, you're here. Try this orange. It's so sweet."
"I don't want to eat. You should eat more."
Tracy put the thermos bottle on the table and said calmly, "I asked the maid to cook some yam and fish soup for you today. I'll get you a bowl later."
Standing next to them, Michael breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that as long as Tracy came, Jack would definitely not mention anything about Rachel.
He put the orange into his mouth and quickly said, "Jack, Auntie, I have something to deal with outside. I'm going back first and I'll come to see you another day."
Jack lowered his long eyelashes and nodded slightly. He was even more confused than before. These people all kept something from him. What happened to Rachel?
He had been angry because she hadn't shown up once, but now he was worried about her. His heart was full of worry and anxiety.
Two days later, Jack could get out of bed and take two steps. As long as he walked slowly, there would be no discomfort as long as the wound was not affected.
Early in the morning, he slowly got out of bed. The nurse beside him immediately opened her eyes and woke up when she heard the noise. She quickly walked up to hold him. "Mr. Jack, are you going to the bathroom?"
Jack withdrew his hand, pointed at the wardrobe beside him and said in a low voice, "Help me take out the clothes in the wardrobe. I have to go out now."
"Go out?" The nurse frowned and disagreed, "You're not fit to go out now."
Jack frowned, "I'm fine now."
"But..."
Seeing that she was about to continue, Jack's face suddenly darkened. "If you don't go to get it, I'll go by myself. You can sit in the ward."
Hearing this, the nurse didn't dare to say anything more. She quickly took out the clothes from the wardrobe, but she couldn't help but ask, "Should we inform Mrs. Fu and Miss Scarlett?"
"No, thanks." Jack said coldly.
In the end, he couldn't help but want to see Rachel. As soon as he recovered, he couldn't wait to see her.
But if Scarlett and Tracy knew it, he would be unable to go out anyway.
The nurse hesitated and stood aside, not knowing what to do. If something happened after she went out, she was afraid that all the responsibility would be on her. Thinking of this, she thought it was better to be safe. While Jack was changing his clothes, she took the opportunity to go to the bathroom and secretly sent a message to Scarlett.
As soon as Rachel parked the car in the parking lot and was about to get off, she saw a boy standing outside and gently knocking on the window. His handsome face looked familiar.
When the little boy saw that she was looking at him, he took two steps back. Rachel opened the door and asked with a smile, "What's up, little boy?"
"Auntie, my father asked me to come to you." The little boy said politely, and then shrugged his shoulders helplessly. "But he just went to the bathroom."
Looking at his naughty look, Rachel couldn't help laughing. She raised her hand and patted him on the head, "Then who is your father?"
"It's me." While they were talking, Jimmy ran out of the door. He was much better after two days' separation. He smiled and said, "I just finished dealing with my wife's matter, so I specially come to the hospital to thank you."
It turned out to be Jimmy's son. No wonder when she first saw this little boy, Rachel felt a little familiar, but she couldn't remember. She couldn't help but sigh that since she was pregnant, her memory was getting worse and worse.
Just like now, when she heard that Jimmy wanted to thank her, she couldn't remember at once. Tilting her head, she asked, "Didn't you thank me before?"
Jimmy looked down at his son and smiled gracefully. "Last time, I thank you for being so busy with our grand. This time, I thank for the aunt you introduced last time. She took good care of Gary in these days, and the charge is very low, almost half lower than the market price."
It was just a piece of cake, and Rachel had already forgotten it.
She didn't expect that he would specially come to thank her with his son. Instead, she felt a little embarrassed and said, "I just introduced a person to you. You should thank that aunt."
"Yes, you are right."
Jimmy was about to continue when his son interrupted him.
Gary stepped forward, held out Rachel's hand and raised her head. "So dad has an appointment with Mrs. Li for dinner. Now we are going to invite you."
"Yes." Jimmy looked at his son dotingly and continued, "I have nothing to thank you. I can only invite you to dinner. I hope you won't mind."
"You don't have to be so polite."
"Dr. Rachel, are you looking down upon my simple meal?"
Since he had said that directly, it would be a little lofty if Rachel wanted to refuse again. She had to nod with a smile, "Okay, I will be there at noon."
Sitting in the taxi, Jack looked at the long queue in front of him and frowned. He couldn't help hammering the seat under his body irritably. But when he turned his head to look at the cars following him closely, he could only wait helplessly.
So when he arrived at the hospital, it was already noon. Seeing a doctor in white coming out of the building and walking towards the canteen, Jack stopped one of the doctors and asked, "Do you know how to go to the executive department?"
"The eleventh floor of the building in front."
