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?"
