Have I Told You Lately

Rachel raised her head and looked at him. Then she glanced at the lunch boxes in his hands, faintly smiling. “Thank you, Maurice, but I’m not hungry. May I have a cup of water, please?”

She didn’t have a very good appetite due to the pregnancy. Moreover, a lot of things happened in the recent few days, she truly didn’t have any appetite now. All she worried about was whether her father’s surgery would succeed.

Maurice frowned. He still tried to convince her gently, “Miss Lewis, you can’t hold on if you keep doing this. It’s not good for your babies either. Besides, Mr. Shawn would be worried as well.”

Rachel put away her smile instantly. “Don’t mention him.”

After a pause, she said, “Please leave them there. I’ll have some later.”

Maurice didn’t say anything else. After putting down the lunch set for her, he walked into the ward with another set.

Shortly, Lillian hurried to the hospital as well.

Rachel was stunned when seeing her. She asked in surprise, “Don’t you need to work today?”

“I’ve asked for a half-day leave. I just want to check on you.” Lillian smiled. Then she peeped into the ward and asked with concern, “Has everything been settled yet?”

Rachel took a sip of the hot water and nodded. “Yeah. We’re waiting for the surgery.”

Seeing that her face was pale, Lillian reached out to pinch her hand. She comforted Rachel in a low voice, “Everything’s gonna be fine. Don’t worry, Rachel. You look so pale. Why don’t you have a nap? I can take care of other things for you.”

“Thank you, Lillian.” Rachel forced herself to put on a wry smile. She whispered, “How would I be in the mood to take a nap?”
