Chapter 440 Talk About The Twins


    Roger carefully issued the invitation, sounding veryposed. "If you want the money, meet me at the


    Moon Café, 2:00 p.m. tomorrow."


    As excited as she was, Rachel became suspicious. "Wait a minute!" ''Why the need to meet?'' she


    thought. "Can you not just transfer the money to my bank ount?" Rachel asked Roger. "I don''t think


    we need to meet somewhere for that purpose."


    Roger smiled. "Ah, but it''s necessary," he said coldly. Before making the call, he thought of how to


    counter any objection Rachel might raise about the meeting.


    "You have to understand that I need to make certain any rtions with you are totally cut off after that.


    You see, the rtionship is not good for my image," Roger said quite arrogantly. "I, a sought-after star


    and you, a has-been actress subject to public condemnation," he added. He waited for a beat and


    continued," Besides, I need you to sign an agreement that signifies our parting after you receive the


    money. Privacy is essential, right?"


    Acting perfectly, Roger told Rachel," I will only hand you the money on condition that you sign the


    agreement."


    Rachel was annoyed with the proposal, but had little choice. "But I fear being spotted and media


    dogging me to make my situation even worse," she nearly wailed. "Your fears are baseless, believe


    me," Roger replied.


    He did think of that but Autumn said to do anything to make Rachel agree. "My position is not much


    better than yours," he said," I also run the risk of being seen with you!"


    Finally, he threatened Rachel," Better give your answer quickly, or you can forget all about this call."


    Rachel had many doubts but did not want to give up an opportunity, so she gave in. "All right, I will do


    as you request."


    "Good then!" Roger exhaled in relief. "I shall see you tomorrow." He hung up without saying goodbye.


    The n was in ce. It was up to Autumn to carry it through.


    Back at the Cloud Advertising Company, I was worried about Autumn''s scheme.


    She looked at her with concern and said," Autumn, don''t you think you''re acting in haste? Remember,


    you''re an expectant mother."

    But Autumn dismissed her concern, however well-meaning. "Please don''t worry," she reassured I. "I


    will not personally carry out the n," she told I. "Once I ry all this to Chris, I will leave it to her


    and Edward to deal with Rachel."


    I blew out a breath, out of relief. "Now, that''s a great idea!" After hearing Autumn''s instructions to


    Roger, I had sort of panicked. If anything happened to Autumn during the encounter, she could


    never face Charles out of shame.


    "Okay, good. Now, let me drive you home," she told Autumn. Her offer was declined immediately. "No,


    thanks. I have a personal driver and he''ll bring me back home."


    "You have a personal driver?" I asked. That was news to I. She recalled thest time Autumn


    came by to visit thepany, she was apanied by Nancy.


    "Yes, my driver is Brent. He is Nancy''s son," Autumn exined. She went on to tell I everything that


    happened which led to their hiring Brent to drive for her. In sympathy, I kept on sighing over and over


    again as she listened.


    Then Autumn remembered something. "There is another matter…" Colin came to mind and she wanted


    to see if all was right with I. "I, is Colin still pestering you?" she asked.


    Colin, in fact, continued to harass I, showering her withpliments at every opportunity. But his


    efforts only irritated I more, who did her best to avoid him. She kept this a secret from Aron, afraid of


    what he might do to Colin. And she did not want to bother Autumn about it because of her pregnancy.


    I simply smiled, reached out for Autumn''s hand and reassured her. "You can put your mind at ease.


    Colin will not dare bother me again. Because Aron will definitely protect me from his ill-mannered


    cousin."


    She added," And I will definitely teach him a lesson if he insists on further molesting me."


    "That''s good to know," said Autumn. She felt relieved because she was terribly concerned about I.


    Arriving at Dream Garden, Autumn found Chris about to leave the house to attend to her wedding


    preparations.


    Autumn pulled her aside. "Chris, a minute please?" Chris stopped and looked inquiringly at Autumn.


    She saw Autumn looked a bit serious.


    "What do you need to tell me?" she inquired.


    Autumn went straight to the point. "Has Edward and Rachel''s divorce been settled?" She was


    ufortable being so direct but did not want to waste time.


    Chris became upset at the mention of the divorce. "Rachel has been putting off the divorce by hiding


    from my father," said she.


    Autumn knew Chris and Edward would continue worrying about Rachel until the divorce was finally


    settled.


    She proceeded to reveal her brilliant n. "Well, I learned earlier that Rachel is meeting someone at


    Moon Café tomorrow at 2:00 p.m., although I''m not quite sure if it''s true," she said innocently.


    "Perhaps, you can see for yourself whether she will be there," she suggested.


    Chris became uneasy with the news. "And where did you hear that, Autumn?" she inquired


    suspiciously.


    "Oh the source of information is not important," said Autumn. "Whether it is true or not, you have


    nothing to lose if you check it out. You do want to find Rachel, right?" Autumn said more convincingly.


    "Well, that''s true," Chris admitted.


    She thought for a while before saying," Okay, I know what to do." Chris hugged Autumn affectionately.


    "I am going to repay your kindness if this information is true and Dad uses the opportunity to finally get


    rid of Rachel."


    "No need to thank me. I''m just happy to be of help," Autumn said smiling. "Think of it as a token for


    your wedding from me… if it is urate," Autumn hastened to add.


    Chris was smiling now. "I''m on my way to try out my wedding dress. Sam is picking me up." Autumn


    was d that Chris was looking forward to something pleasant.


    "Oh, you''re going to enjoy that," she told Chris. Turning serious, she reminded Chris," Remember what


    I told you… the time and ce and be sure not to miss it."


    "I won''t!" Chris said aloud and turned to leave. She was already thinking of Sam and their date.


    Sam was delighted to see his fiancee in high spirits when she got into the car. "You look very happy,"


    hemented.


    "It''s a secret," she whisperedughing. Chris wanted the good mood to continue. "Did I tell you Autumn


    is expecting twins?" she told Sam.


    "Twins? Really?" he answered in surprise. Sam weed such good news while driving. It was better


    than hearing about problems. "If that''s the case, Charles will be most delighted."


    "I''m certain he will be crazily happy!" Chris responded. Chris was truly happy for Autumn and the


    would have a pigeon pair."


    "What is this I hear?" Sam said teasing. "Jealous of that prospect, are you now? He loved having this


    kind of conversation with Chris.


    Chris turned shy, but countered. "I know I will be given due respect by Autumn''s children."


    Sam turned wistful. "Will you produce a pigeon pair for me?" he said softly.


    Christ looked at him seriously," Now, you''re dreaming!"
