Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 23

The suite on the 11th floor was fantastic. There were precious oil paintings on the walls and large French windows through which she could see the boundless ocean.

Osmond met some business friends on the cruise, who asked him to come over and have a talk.

So, he asked Rachel to take care of Monica.

Rachel agreed happily, “Don’t worry. I will take good care of her.”

She cleaned herself and held Monica’s hand and then walked downstairs.

The café was spacious and supplied palatable dishes from many countries. Having been pregnant for two months, Rachel craved for sour stuff. She liked the Spanish sour soup particularly and drunk several bowls of it.

At this moment, Monica dragged Rachel’s clothes.

“What is it, baby?” Rachel asked and saw some children in swimwear walking in. It seemed like they would go swimming after having food.

Rachel understood and smiled, “Do you want to go swimming?”

Monica nodded, with her eyes full of desire.

Rachel went ask for the swimming pool’s location and had the cook pack a box of sour plum cake for her before leave.

It was a large, open-air swimming pool built right on the deck. There were many children messing around, and the cabinet beside presented all sizes of swimwear and swim rings.

Rachel thought Monica couldn’t swim and was going to get her a swim ring. Bur Monica jumped into the water and emerged from it seconds later, smiling at her.

So, Rachel let Monica play by herself in the pool and found a beach chair to sit down and relax. She began eating the sour plum cake and enjoying herself.

Gradually, many young pretty girls came to the swimming pool, wearing sexy swimwear and showing their slim body.

Rachel saw those girls and looked down at her chubby arms, thighs, and belly, feeling more upset.

Due to the pregnancy, she lost her figure. When the baby came out, would she look much older?

Rachel kept eating the cake in anger and suddenly heard a familiar voice which sounded like that of Kenneth’s secretary.

Rachel saw Sabrina sitting on a beach chair that was not far from hers. Sabrina was shaking a man’s arm and begging, “Mr. Francis, please think about the development plan of the western suburb. Please~”

“Fine, I will give it some thought.”

Rachel felt speechless.

Then she found a right timing and took out her phone to film them. Somehow, she felt offended by Kenneth’s taste in choosing secretary.

She thought before that Kenneth got a great secretary. It turned out that she was just a social butterfly.

Sabrina and the man exchanged more sweet talks and then walked away, without noticing Rachel. Rachel unblocked Kenneth’s number and was ready to send the video.

But she hesitated at this moment.

They had already got a divorce. What if he thought I was being a busybody?

To send it or not?

While she was struggling to make a decision, she saw among countless people that Kenneth was striding towards her. He was wearing casual clothes.

Rachel put her phone back in handbag immediately, laid down and pretended to be reading a magazine.
