    Chapter 400 They Looked Alike


    "You know I won''t go back to Jack." Tears were welling up in Rachel''s eyes. She bit her lower lip to


    stop herself from crying. But the next second, she pushed Bill away, rushed to the bathroom,


    squatted in front of the toilet. For the next few minutes, she was puking.


    Bill quickly followed and patted her on the back. "Are you okay?" he asked in a caring tone.


    "Much better," she replied although she looked very sick. Taking the tissue from his hand, Rachel


    wiped her mouth. Her face, which was originally bloodless, became even paler.


    After rinsing her mouth, she put her hands in front of the wash basin to keep herself from falling


    down. She was overwhelmed by dizziness. "Bill, I don''t want you wasting your time on me. I can''t


    give you any promise."


    Rachel chose to make it clear. She didn''t want to leave any room for misunderstandings.

    With a gloomy look in his eyes, Bill remained utterly silent. He helped Rachel out of the hospital.


    It was getting quite dark. In a very secluded private club, Mr. Chen sat, his face turning red. ring


    fiercely at the person opposite to him, he shouted, "Didn''t you agree to sell all the shares to me?


    Whom did you sell them to now?"


    "I haven''t found out yet." The man''s trembling voice clearly showed he was afraid of Mr. Chen. After


    all, thetter was a man who was capable of doing anything.


    At this moment, in a car outside the club, Jack was sitting in the back seat. He ordered in a low


    voice, "Drive back."


    "Okay." When Austin started the car, his phone vibrated. ncing at it, he caught sight of the


    caller''s name. He turned to look at Jack who was sitting behind and said, "Mr. Fu, it''s a message


    from Mr. Chen. He wants to know if you have any appointment tomorrow night."


    "Tell him I am avable." Jack''s dark eyes were both cold and fierce.


    The next day, Jack and Austin arrived at the restaurant at the prescribed time. As soon as they got


    out of the car, they saw Mr. Chen and his assistant standing at the door. Quickly, they came forward


    and said, "Mr. Fu, was the traffic too much? I wish I had been waited for you in thepany so that


    both of us could havee here together."


    His words were full of ttery. Jack smiled perfunctorily but did not make a reply.


    Mr. Chen looked at him awkwardly. After sometime, he broke the silence once again and said, "The


    private room is ready. Let''s go in." Then he led them into the restaurant along with his assistant.


    Standing behind Jack, Austin whispered disdainfully, "Mr. Fu, I can''t believe they are putting on this


    facade."


    "Don''t worry. We will eventually remove the mask off their faces." Jack patted Austin on the


    shoulder and smiled.


    Several shareholders were sitting on the sofa in the private room. When they saw Jacke in,


    they all stood up. A fake smile was stered on each one of their faces.


    Austin was about to pull out the chair of the host''s seat, but Mr. Chen took a step ahead and said,


    "Mr. Fu, please sit here."


    Jack didn''t refuse and sat down on the chair. His deep and long eyes turned cold, and the corners


    of his mouth parted a bit. Finally, he said, "Please don''t stand. Take a seat, everybody!"


    All of them wanted to step forward, but there was a hint of unwillingness on their face. Hearing his


    words, they pulled out their chairs and sat down. One of them was about to upy the seat next to


    Jack, but Mr. Chen patted his shoulder and winked at him to find another seat. And now, the seat


    next to Jack remained empty.


    Seeing this, Austin was puzzled. He wanted to speak up, but Jack motioned for him to have a seat.


    Having no choice, he obliged.


    When the waitress saw that they were all seated, she went forward, setting up the table and


    preparing the tea. Right at this moment, the door was pushed open and a slender girl made an


    entry. She was d in a ck dress with her ck hair hanging over her shoulders. Her watery


    eyes faintly exuded a demonic aura.


    What surprised everyone was not how beautiful she was, but the stark resemnce she bore to


    Rachel. Austin let out a low gasp when he first saw her.


    The closer she came, the wider Austin''s eyes became.


    The girl smoothed her hair, pretending like she couldn''t see the shock in his eyes.


    While all this happened, Jack was oblivious to everything. He looked down, his eyes glued to his


    phone. Mr. Chen realized he had to do something. Getting up, he led the girl to Jack and


    introduced, "Mr. Fu, this is my cousin, Scarlett Chen. I specially called her over tonight to


    apany you for the dinner."


    At this moment, Jack put down his mobile phone and looked up. His cold eyes suddenly became


    expressionless. Emotions were brewing in his heart, waiting to be exposed. But he wouldn''t let his


    guard down today. His heart was trembling. ''How can she look so simr to Rachel?'' he wondered


    in his heart. But he told himself this wasn''t his Rachel. Rachel was like a lotus, free from mud. This


    woman was akin to the wild flower on the roadside, emitting a disgusting fragrance.


    Austin had been staring at Jack. Seeing that Jack looked unmoved, he breathed a sigh of relief.


    Then he heard his name popping out of Jack''s mouth. "Austin, it urred to me I have something


    important to do. My apologies to everyone for leaving. Have an enjoyable meal!"


    Jack stood up and left.


    Deep in his heart, he knew this woman wasn''t Rachel. She merely held some resemnce to her.


    However, he couldn''t bear to stay in the room where she remained. Her face would bring Rachel


    and her memories back to him. Moreover, he wasn''t enjoying the night even a little bit. He was


    relieved to leave everything in Austin''s hands.


    Standing at the entrance of the restaurant, he was about to catch a taxi. A clear female voice came


    from behind. "Mr. Fu, wait for me."


    Jack turned around and saw her walking over in her high-heeled shoes, her dress in one hand. She


    gasped and said, "My cousin asked me toe here tonight to have dinner with you. Now that you


    are leaving, there is no point in staying here. But..."


    She bit her lips, with tears brimming in her eyes. After a moment, sheposed herself and


    continued, "I forgot to bring my wallet with me. I am in a helpless situation, so could you give me a


    ride?"


    The next morning, as soon as Jack drove to the underground parking lot of MK Group, he saw


    Austin waiting for him. Like he was in some kind of hurry, he ran over. Jack couldn''t help frowning


    and asked, "Did something go wrongst night? Why do you look flustered?"


    Austin shook his head and stammered, "I heard that you left with Scarlett Chenst night. Did


    you..."


    "Nothing happened,"


    Jack said before Austin could finish his words. Deftly, he threw the car keys into the air and they


    urately fell into Austin''s palms. He exined in a low voice, "She didn''t have a wallet so she


    asked me for a ride. That''s all."


    "That''s good."


    Austin breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. Only God knew how worried he had beenst


    night. He didn''t even sleep a wink since he worried Jack had fallen into their trap. After all, he


    missed Rachel so much.


    Now returning to the office, Austin quickly filled Jack in with what had happenedst night. As


    expected, these people assumed that their dirty intentions hadn''t been discovered. They did all they


    could to create a good impression. Perhaps they thought they wouldn''t receive any serious


    punishment when their truth would get exposed someday. But they didn''t know that Jack was


    always one step ahead of them. All their actions had been observed by him.


    Austin coughed and asked, "Mr. Fu, what should we do next? Last night, I realized how painful it is


    to tolerate their ttery."


    Jack smiled, touched his chin and said coldly, "We won''t have to tolerate it. We can call them in


    later and reveal what we found."


    On the other hand, Rachel hadn''t seen Bill since met him two days ago. Perhaps she had done the


    right thing by making things clear. She was quite relieved.


    However, there was something that was distressing her and it was the morning sickness. Thest


    two days had been dreadful. Everything made her want to puke. The other day, the smell of oil


    made her stomach churn.


    She could barely eat anything. Her appetite was getting really bad. She survived exclusively on


    porridge these days. Her originally thin face became even paler.


    Miss Li, who was in the same office, saw her and asked with concern, "Miss Shen, are you okay?


    You look much thinner these two days."


    Because her belly was not big, nobody here guessed about her pregnancy.


    Raising her head from the front of theputer, Rachel grinned. "I''m fine. I just have a


    stomachache."


    "Is that all? You should have told me. I have a great medicine that helps with stomach ache. Have a


    try. It''s very effective." Miss Li fumbled in the cab enthusiastically, took out the medicine bottle


    and ced it on Rachel''s table. Suddenly, the strong smell of Chinese medicine prated into the


    tip of her nose.


    Before she could say anything, Rachel covered her mouth and rushed into the bathroom.


    However, the scene that happened left Miss Li dumbfounded. She looked at the door from time to


    time, wondering what had gone wrong. Bringing the medicine close to her nose, Miss Li muttered,


    "Her reaction is quite strange. The medicine may not smell too good, but it isn''t strong enough to


    make someone vomit. What''s up with her?"


    She continued to smell the bottle, trying to understand the cause of Rachel''s strong reaction. Just


    then, there was a knock on the door. She quickly put the bottle down, looked at the man and asked


    doubtfully, "Who are you looking for?"


    "Excuse me, is Rachel here?" the man asked.


    "Yes." Miss Li nodded and thought to herself, ''Who is this Rachel actually? Why do such handsome


    mene for her?''


    She thought the man would wait. However, he left quickly. After a while, Rachel came back from the


    bathroom. Miss Li frowned and said doubtfully, "Miss Shen, someone came to see you just now, but


    he left without exining why he hade."


    "What does he look like?" Rachel held her breath.


    Miss Li described the man in detail. After she finished speaking, she noticed that Rachel''s originally


    bloodless face turned even paler. She couldn''t help but ask, "Are you really okay, Miss Shen? Do


    you need me to call the ambnce?"
