Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 10

Her husband Kenneth’s mother, Krista was held around the shoulder by a young woman, both walking towards them laughing and talking to each other. After a close look at the woman Rachel realized, she was the same woman who was with Kenneth last night.

It seemed like Krista did not expect to meet Rachel in the hospital.

As their eyes meet, a shadow of embarrassment slipped past Krista’s face. She nodded towards Theresa in acknowledgment and said with a smile, "I was feeling a bit off, so Kenneth asked Sabrina to take me to the hospital. It’s nothing much."

"Yes, I know, Kenneth’s assistant." Rachel said with a smile, holding her mother's arm without the slightest nervousness, "But please, next time call me for it, Mom. You don’t need to call outsiders for this kind of thing."

Krista smiled, embarrassed.

Sabrina’s face turned cold upon being satirized by Rachel, she arrogantly stated, "Miss Lewis, I'm the assistant of Mr. Kenneth. It's my duty to take care of his mother. I'm not an outsider."

Seeing Sabrina act so arrogant, Theresa was not happy and wanted to say something to her.

Rachel stopped her and said indifferently, "Your boss is Mr. Kenneth Shawn, I'm his wife. You should call me Mrs. Shawn, not Miss Lewis. You don't even have enough common sense. How did you get this position?”

Sabrina's face became more and more gloomy.

Rachel glanced at Krista and smiled, "Mom, I'm sorry, I have to be somewhere, so I can't accompany you. I'll take my leave then."

Krista nodded, but didn’t say anything polite or even a goodbye.

Rachel saw the contempt visible on Krista’s face. Acting like she had not seen it, she took her mother by her arm and walked past them, but her heart felt heavy.

Before she got married, she gave special attention to Kenneth’s family. She visited them with gifts often. However, no one was nice towards her except Krista. But her kindness might be because Rachel’s family was rich.

When Krista was hospitalized with kidney stones, Rachel took care of her for almost a month until she was discharged from the hospital. During that time, she would personally prepare her meals and take them to the hospital.

For a long time, she treated Krista just like her own mother, but Krista never liked her; now, she was tired.

She was really tired.

No matter how much she tries, she’s afraid Kenneth will never acknowledge her.

When she left the hospital, Rachel realized that she didn’t buy enough medicine. She asked her mother to wait for her and went back to get the medicine.

In the corridor, she met Sabrina again. This time, Krista was not with her.

When Sabrina saw Rachel, she walked towards her in her high-heeled shoes and blocked her way, "Rachel Lewis, let's talk."

She looked very domineering.

Rachel didn’t even look at her and kept turning around trying to avoid her. However, Sabrina kept blocking her way. Finally, Rachel exhaled.

"Talk about what?"

"My name is Sabrina Torres and you can check which family I am from." Sabrina said in a contemptuous tone, "I know about your father's fall to disgrace."

Rachel smiled unsmilingly, her eyes a pair of cold stones, "Everyone in the whole city knows about my father’s fall to disgrace. It would be strange if you didn’t know about it."

In the morning, when she was waiting for Kenneth in the hospital, she checked Sabrina’s family background on her cell phone. Her father was a real estate agent, whose net worth was hundreds of millions. She was Little Miss Perfect.

If such a rich woman was willing to work as an assistant for someone, then the reason could be easily guessed.

Sabrina obviously didn't want to beat around the bush. She went straight to the point, "I know you need two million yuan. If you divorce Kenneth, the money would be my gift to you."

Without wasting her time, she took out a check from her bag, filled and signed it, then handed it to Rachel.

Rachel glanced at the check. It really was a genuine check for two million yuan, all written and signed. If she agreed, she could go to the bank to cash the check right now.

Rachel just looked at her, without receiving the check. Then she said, "Kenneth and I are living fine. Why would I divorce him? It’s not like I can’t borrow this money."
