Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 124

“Hello.” Her voice was hoarse and she breathed slightly harder.

“You… What’s wrong with you?” Kenneth Shawn on the other side of the phone realized something as a concern could be heard within his voice.

The deep and magnetic voice made Rachel Lewis feel a little relieved, “I am fine. Why are you calling me again?”

“I am asking whether you have gone back yet.” Of course, it was more likely that he suddenly wanted to hear her voice. He had heard her voice. Yet, he did not ignore the terrifying feelings within her voice. ‘Did something happen to her?’

“I am already on the way back.”

Rachel put down her phone, connected it to a Bluetooth earpiece, and put it on her ear. Then, she continued to drive forward.

“Rachel, did something happen to you just now?” Kenneth still had some doubts.

Rachel sobbed and her voice became calm. She smiled lightly, “I am really fine. Perhaps I am too tired lately. I will be fine after taking a rest.”

After that, she changed the topic and asked, “Are you still working overtime at the company?”

“I have also just finished my work. I will go back after packing up.”

Rachel frowned, “Don’t always stay up late like this. It is not good for your health. Don’t you have a lot of subordinates under you? Why are you doing everything by yourself?”

“Okay.” Kenneth did not make any excuses and he replied the word obediently.

Rachel was nervous as she didn’t know what to say. Her face felt hot. Luckily, he was not in front of her.

“Then, then you should go back quickly. I am still driving. I am hanging up the phone now.” She was nervous as she stuttered. She hurriedly finished her words and hung up the phone.

At this time in the president's office of Dragon Age, Kenneth put down his phone under the bright lights. His eyes were getting dark and he was still imagining her reaction when she answered the phone in his mind.

After a while, he called Maurice Louis.

“Mr. Shawn.”

Kenneth remained silent for a few seconds before he spoke. Yet, his tone was soft, “Maurice, ask two of your subordinates to follow Rachel. Don’t tell her and don’t follow her too closely. Just let me know her location at any time.”

“Okay.” Maurice did not have any questions.

After Maurice hung up the phone for a while, Rachel reached the hospital.

“Ms. Lewis.”

Rachel looked at him gratefully, “Mr. Louis, you have worked hard. You go back to have a rest first, I will be staying here and looking after him later.”

“Ms. Lewis, you could just call me Maurice. I am a bodyguard and my rest time was arranged. You don’t have to worry.”

Rachel still wanted to say something but she did not speak after thinking for a while. She did not want to delay his work. She would also feel bad if his salary was deducted.

She nodded and walked into the ward alone.

“Rach, you are back.” Theresa Moore got up with a gentle smile, “Have you eaten?”

“I have already eaten.” She put down her bag and walked towards Chapman Lewis. She bent her body to look at Chapman and she asked with a low voice, “How is he today?”

Theresa packed up the things as she curled her lips, “How can he be? He only mumbled a few words to me, I couldn’t understand them.”

Rachel pressed her lips as she smiled. Theresa seemed like she disliked his actions but happiness could be heard within her voice. After seeing this, Rachel could not help but feel funny, “You could understand them after listening to them two more times. Didn’t you still understand all the mumbles I made before I learned to speak?”

“Nah! What kind of nonsense is this?” Theresa pulled Rachel’s hand to let her sit beside her. She suddenly frowned, “Why are your hands so cold? Are your wearing very thin clothes?”

Rachel smiled as she shook her head, “I just came in from outside. I will be fine in a while.”

“You have been concerning about your Dad but you forgot about yourself. Take good care of yourself from now.” Theresa felt heartbroken as she held her hands to warm them up.

“Okay.” Rachel nodded her heads obediently.

“Did the baby bother you recently?”

“There isn’t any movement yet.” She lowered her head and touched her slightly bigger belly. She smiled gently.

She believed that there would be a movement soon.
