Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 111

“Yeah.” Kenneth frowned more deeply, a touch of coldness flashing through his eyes. “You don’t need to mind that woman. My mother favors her, so she was coaxed by that woman.”

Rachel’s expression remained the same. She said lightly, “I don’t care if your mother favors her or not. I just hope you could keep an eye on her. If something happens to that woman, you can’t come to me and blame me.”

Rachel was pretty sure that Sabrina must have known that she was pregnant. In the future, there might be more accidents happening in the company. Rachel could pretend to be blind and ignore her, but it didn’t mean that she was stupid. If Sabrina pissed her off, Rachel wouldn’t let her go.

Kenneth’s eyes darkened. He asked in a gloomy tone, “What has she done to you?”

Rachel was not in the mood to tell him. Lowering her head, she stirred the soup in the bowl and said in a cold tone, “Nothing. I just don’t like her. Please don’t let her show up in front of me.”

The warning was what she could do at this moment. If Sabrina still deliberately made the trouble to her, Rachel wouldn’t tolerate it.

Kenneth’s eyes darkened again. He didn’t speak but emanated a gloomy aura.

After finishing the bowl of soup, Rachel wiped her mouth and started to drive him away. “If you’ve finished everything, just go home. Otherwise, your mother would come here to find you later.”

Kenneth stared at her for a while, and then stood up. With his expressionless handsome face, he said, “I’ll come here tomorrow morning. Now, go to sleep.”

He still needed to deal with something.

Rachel blinked. She truly wanted to tell him not to come here tomorrow, but she knew it would be useless to say so. Hence, she was not in the mood to argue with him. Pretending to be mute, she waved her hand at him.

Noticing her expression that wished him to disappear right away, Kenneth couldn’t help but twitched his mouth corners. When his gaze fell on the bruises caused by the pinch, his eyes darkened. Then he said in a gentle voice, “Don’t forget to apply the medicine to your wound.”

Rachel was taken aback for a moment. Then she nodded. “Okay. Hurry up and leave!”

Kenneth felt helpless. He patted on her head lovingly and walked out.

“Oh, by the way!” Rachel stopped him as suddenly she thought of something.

Kenneth looked back. “What else?”

Rachel asked curiously, “Is that Maurice your employee? He’s a nice guy. Please say thanks to him on my behalf. I’ll thank him personally tomorrow.”

The man’s face became cold obviously. Suppressing his anger, he answered, “He doesn’t work for Dragon Age. I borrowed him from my friend who runs a home guard company. What now? It has been just a few days. Do you already have a crush on him?”

His last sentence was squeezed between his gritted teeth.

Rachel directly ignored his last sentence. She understood and nodded, “Okay, I see. No wonder he’s so nimble.”

Upon hearing it, Kenneth became arctic cold all over his body and the coldness emanated from him covered the whole room. He gazed at the woman and reminded her in a deep voice, “Rachel Lewis, did you become a fool because of too much sleep? Don’t you forget it was me who save you!”

He wondered if she thought it was Maurice who kicked the man away because she was in a daze back then.

However, the woman widened her eyes and nodded solemnly, “I didn’t forget it. I know it was you who save me. But Mr. Louis had been helping me and quite hard-working nowadays. Of course, I’ll thank him in person.”

She wondered why Kenneth looked so strange. Was he afraid his credit would be stolen by Maurice?

What a petty man.

Kenneth noticed the way she addressed Maurice -- Mr. Louis.

He felt depressed. He had helped her so many times, but she still couldn’t be kind to him. However, Maurice was just working to complete his task under his order, and she became grateful for him.

What a snobbish woman!

Kenneth’s face turned cold. He looked down and staid in a cold tone, “I pay him to work. Of course, he needs to work hard. You don’t need to thank him.”

“Go to bed,” he said.

Then he opened to door and walked out, closing the door behind.

Rachel was speechless.

She wondered why he suddenly became angry.

When Kenneth was leaving the hospital, he happened to bump into Maurice who was dividing the tasks to his coworkers.

When he saw Kenneth, he came over and greeted, “Hi, Mr. Shawn.”

Kenneth completely ignored him and walked directly towards his car.

Maurice was taken back, rubbing the back of his head in confusion. It seemed that Mr. Shaw was angry, wasn’t he? However, Maurice didn’t overthink. He soon went back to his work.

Kenneth drove back to Scenic Bay.

In the apartment, Krista had already prepared a big table of dishes because she knew he was coming home for dinner. Seeing him come in, Krista immediately walked to him with a bright smile. “Ken, you are back. Come on. Wash your hand. Let’s have dinner.”

Kenneth was expressionless. He took a glance at her, put down the coat that was taken off on the sofa, and went to the bathroom without saying anything.

Krista’s smile faded a little. Then she yelled at the kitchen, “Megan, get the tableware ready. We’ll have dinner now.”

“Yes, Mrs. Shawn.”

Kenneth walked out of the bathroom, rolling up his sleeves. Then he pulled the chair and sat down at the dining table. He remained expressionless, and nobody could tell his mood.

“Try this.” Krista picked up food for him.

Kenneth raised his chopsticks and then he put them down. He looked at her expressionlessly. “Did Sabrina take you to the hospital?”

Although his tone was flat, he didn’t sound angry. He was quite calm as if he was asking something unimportant.

Of course, Kenneth couldn’t quarrel with his mother, but he had to make something clear.

Krista’s smile was stiffened. She picked up food for herself and avoided eye contact with him. She answered in a flat tone, “Didn’t you ask me in the hospital this afternoon? Let the bygones be bygones.”

“I can do it, but can you? You can see through Sabrina’s dirty tricks, but why did you allow her to do so?”

Krista’s chopsticks paused. She looked a bit annoyed. Staring at him, she said, “Ken, are you questioning me? Of course, I can see through what’s on Sabrina’s mind. But she just loves you and never wants to set you up. How about Rachel Lewis? Since you divorced, how much trouble has she made? Either for her father or the babies in her belly. Why would she pretend to be pitiful? It was just to show you. Why do you still want to pester such a scheming dirty woman?”

Kenneth’s handsome face was tightened. His eyes became colder and his tone was aggressive. “Did you see all of those or have you heard it from someone else? She has never begged me for her father’s matters. For the financial punishment, she borrowed money from her friend. She’s pregnant with my babies truly and she didn’t need to use them to make me pity her. Until today, it’s always me who keeps pestering her. Do you understand?”

If he had already known those matters from the very beginning, he wouldn’t have signed on that agreement.

Krista widened her eyes. She said in a lower voice, “Are you the father of the babies? Are you sure about that? She was not pregnant during the three years when marrying you. As soon as you divorced, she was pregnant. How can you fall for such a dirty trick? Her father was dying on the bed. I believe that she just regretted divorcing you and now she’s tangling with you. Ken, wake up. You can’t believe in such a kind of woman!”
