NovelEnglishChapter 596: "Rachel, if this is what you've decided, then I'll stand by you." A weight lifted from Rachel's shoulders as she exhaled in relief. "Yvonne, thank you!" Yvonne playfully tugged her hand away, feigning sternness. "Don't thankyet. Promise you'll actually listen to the doctors from now on." "All right, all right. I'll listen, I promise." "Good. I'll head to the hospital and call you once everything's arranged." After Yvonne left, Rachel made her way to Jeffrey's room. The moment he saw her, he sat up and smiled brightly. "You're finally back. That's great!" Rachel ran her fingers gently through his hair. "Jeffrey, the test results are in. You'll need to stay in the hospital for a while and follow the doctors' instructions, okay?" Jeffrey's eyes flickered with unease. "Am I really sick? Is it serious?" “It's not fatal—just something that needs proper care to heal. So be good, Jeffrey, and let's trust the doctors, all right?" "But..." Jeffrey gripped the bedsheet, worry clear in his voice. "Isn't staying in the hospital really expensive? I heard it costs a fortune. I don't want you working yourself to the bone because of me." Rachel reached over and gave his hand a reassuring pat. "You don't have to worry about that, Jeffrey. I've got everything covered." She hesitated, lips pressing together as she gathered her thoughts. This was the perfect moment to tell him about her impending marriage to Brian.
Sooner or later, he would find out, and it was better coming from her than from someone with ill intentions. Taking a deep breath, she finally said, "Jeffrey, there's something really important I need to tell you... I'm getting married." For a moment, Jeffrey was stunned. Then his face lit up with excitement. He clapped his hands together, beaming. "That's amazing! Rachel, you're finally getting married. You're going to be the most beautiful bride. Who's my future brother-in-law? I haven't met him yet, have I?" It was clear he had already ruled out Brian as a possibility.
Rachel looked at him seriously. "It's Brian." The excitement drained from Jeffrey's face, his brows knitting together in disbelief. "Brian? But... he cheated on you. He betrayed you. Why would you still want to marry him? Is this because of me?"
Rachel shook her head firmly. "No, Jeffrey. What happened before was a misunderstanding. Yes, Tracy was his first love, but they never never got back together. She was someone he once cared about, so it's natural he looked after her. I've made peace with the past, and right now Brian's grandmother is gravely ill. We'll be getting married soon. I've thought this through carefully. I really want your blessing. Can you supporton this?"
Her eyes held deep sincerity as she waited for his response. The content for his iston novelenglish.net!
Jeffrey paused, then looked up at Rachel with sincere eyes a yes.
"Since this is your decision, I truly wish you the best." "Thank you, Jeffrey. That really means a lot to me."
