Countdown to My Divorce (Rachel and William) novel Chapter 624

The two of them rushed to the hospital at once.

When Cecilia arrived at the ward and saw Jerry, who was making his way in, she paused mid–stride in

surprise.

Jerry’s face was way too attention–grabbing for her to ignore him. His eyes were aggressive and hostile,

the edge of his jaw sharp and incisive. On closer look, however, his features were exquisite and rather

good–looking.

They exchanged glances for a split second before Cecilia looked away.

She paused for a moment, letting Jerry enter first.

Jerry walked into the room; when he saw her on the bed, he greeted her automatically.

“Hi, Rachel.”

Rachel was in the middle of getting out of bed and packing her luggage. She turned around when she

heard Jerry’s voice. Seeing that it was him, she smiled brightly.

“Hi, Jerry. It’s been a while.”

Jerry reached out to fold Rachel into a hug. Cecilia, still standing at the door, was shocked to see it.

Rachel… Rachel knew this man!

Cecilia had thought that it was someone the Zieglers had hired to cause Rachel trouble. He appeared very

much like a hitman to Cecilia. Whatever it was, he certainly didn’t look meek or easy–going.

Rachel tiptoed and rubbed his hair affectionately. “You look like you’ve lost weight. Are you unwell or

something?”

“No, I just feel a little bored alone sometimes,” Jerry said, a hint of indignation in his voice.

Cecilia was taken aback by this scene. She couldn’t believe that a young man with a seemingly rebellious

streak and such aggressive eyes would have this spoiled side to him, whining as though he was being treated unfairly,

How pretentious!

Rachel reached out to gently pat this shoulder,

“Don’t worry. I have a lot of work for you to do. I guarantee you won’t find it dull.”

Jerry tucked his aggression and dominance away, making sure that he was on his best behavior before

“Yes! Please don’t send me elsewhere this time, Rachel. Can you let me stay by your side, no matter what

happens?”

The corner of Rachel’s lips lifted. “Don’t worry. I won’t let you go even if you want to go. Things are getting busy, and I need your help.”

Instead of feeling the heat, Jerry was glad to hear Rachel’s words.

“No problem, just let me know what you need help with and I’ll be on it. If you hadn’t invested heavily in my studies, I wouldn’t be who I am today. For all you know, I’d probably be doing odd jobs at a factory.”

Jerry was born an orphan. He’d follow other hooligans and go around stealing from others. Although he knew it wasn’t the right thing to do, he wouldn’t have food to eat if he dared disobey them.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Rachel was his second parent.

Rachel, on the other hand, didn’t think much of it.

“It’s no trouble at all. What’s more, if you didn’t work as hard as you did or exhibit the talent you have, it doesn’t matter how much I invested in you. It’d be in vain.”

Cecilia was very confused by their conversation. She stepped forward and interrupted them.

“Wait. What are you two talking about? Why do I not understand a word of it? Rachel, do you know him? Why have I never seen him before?”

It was a long story that Rachel had no idea where to begin retelling.

“I’ll explain to you in more detail later on. Please help me take this luggage to the car. It’s not very convenient for me to do so right now.”
