Chapter 465 Two Folders
Jack found himself in a terrible situation. He had eagerly brought Rachel''s favorite food and was
about to sit with her. But he noticed the round table was upied by fourdies. Looking around, he
found an empty seat and sat down. He waited for them to finish their conversation before going
there. From time to time, he would nce at her.
"Hey, Rachel, I see you are pregnant. Didn''t your husbande with you today?" Sophie looked at
her belly, getting ready to gossip about it with others.
Rachel smiled faintly and said, "Yes, he''s here."
At the mention of Jack, it suddenly urred to her that it had been a long time since he went to
fetch food.
She looked around and found that he was surrounded by a group of people.
This was not a surprise because wherever he went, he was always the center of attention.
"Where is he? Why don''t you ask him over so that we can say hello?" Sophie asked.
Rachel shook her head as she had no desire to introduce him to Sophie. Suddenly, her phone on
the table vibrated. Picking it up, she realized Jack had sent her a message. "Do you want to go
home?"
His message brought her relief. "Yes, sure," she replied back.
Then she slowly stood up, pulled her coat and smiled. "I have to go back. You guys enjoy your
time."
Sophie hurriedly said, "Hey, it has just been a while since you came. Why are you in a hurry? Stay a
little longer. Anna said she would join us soon."
Pretending that she didn''t hear Sophie''s words, Rachel quickened her pace and left. Not long after,
Jack came out of the crowd, held her hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "Let''s go."
"What happened?" Seeing the impatience and tiredness in his eyes, Rachel was worried. "What
were you talking about over there?" she asked.
Jack opened the car door, put his hand over her head and fastened the seat belt for her. "I''ll tell you
later," he said once he was inside.
The soft music slowly began, leaving no room for conversation. Seeing that he didn''t want to tell her
about it, Rachel''s curiosity piqued. "What happened just now? Will you please tell me?"
Normally, Rachel wasn''t the kind of woman who liked to meddle in other people''s business. But
today, Jack hade to the wedding with her. If something unpleasant happened, it was her fault.
Jack tapped the steering wheel with his slender fingers and said in a low voice, "Just business
matters."
"Business?" Frowning, Rachel turned off the music, getting ready to get it out of him.
She said, "None of them had any business contact with you, did they?"
If she wasn''t wrong, the people he spoke to were strangers to him.
Jack chuckled and said, "Yes, but they took the initiative to talk business with me. They wanted me
to give them a chance. They said our wives were junior high school ssmates."
"Oh, they are using my name to get close to you. I feel so important!" Rachel eximed and
chuckled. Thinking about this matter seriously, she frowned and said, "Why do I think they have
been waiting for this opportunity since a very long time? As soon as they saw you, they came to talk
to you, didn''t they?"
Jack turned to look at her and smiled. "Yes, you are smart. After you and Lea met your ssmate in
the mall, she must have found out your background."
Hearing this, the corners of Rachel''s mouth twitched. "It seems that she didn''te to the hospital
to see a doctor. I felt strange because she left after she talked to me. I knew it then and there
something was amiss." Listening to Jack''sughter, she asked, "Then how did you reply?"
"I gave Austin''s business card to your ssmate''s husband and asked him to send a cooperation
n to that e-mail. If he is capable, then I don''t mind giving him a chance." Seeing her face darken,
Jack reached out to rub her head and added, "Don''t worry. I don''t consider this an annoyance. I
asked you if you wanted to go home because you seemed a bit tired. It had nothing to do with me."
Rachel felt exposed because Jack had seeded in reading her mind.
She removed his hand from her head and put it back on the steering wheel. "Please don''t act like
this while driving. Consider safety and drive carefully."
"Yes, ma''am!" Jack saluted before he brought his focus bar to driving.
Rachel ignored him. But the rest of the journey went quite smoothly. The doubts she had was
cleared now. Putting her hand on the central control screen, she searched to find some music to
enjoy. When she was about to ask which folder his music was present in, her eyes fell on two
folders which had catchy names.
One had the word wife written on it and the other one was marked as baby.
Looking up at him, she found that Jack was focusing on driving. He was oblivious to the treasure
she had found.
She opened the folder named wife and was stunned to notice it contained all her favorite English
songs. It waspletely different from the music Jack enjoyed.
Then she exited it and reopened the folder named baby. This one was filled with famous children''s
songs.
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
Jack finally noticed her. When he saw the folders, his face turned red. Scratching the back of his
head, he exined, "My ylist only contains some light music. I was afraid you would get bored,
so I..."
Rachel nodded. She didn''t want him to exin because she already understood the depth of his
emotions. Once again, she was deeply touched.
She reached out and clicked on one of the songs. Leaning back, she closed her eyes and said
softly, "I''m tired of these songs. You should change and add something different."
"Okay!1 Jack replied happily.
He loved it when Rachel ordered him to do things. He was afraid she would act formal after all the
misunderstandings they had experienced. Seeing there was no difference in her behavior, he was
relieved. ''My old Rachel is returning, '' he thought happily.
To her utter shock, Jack was quite fast in his job. On the second night, when Rachel was about to
go back to her room to have a rest, Jack grabbed her hand. Taking her near hisputer, he
announced, "Rachel, look, I have downloaded all of them. Do you like it?"
With a click of the mouse, Rachel analyzed the list. To her surprise, more than 100 songs had been
downloaded by Jack. They were all her favorites.
Unable to conceal her shock, she asked, "Did you take someone''s help?"
"How is that possible?" Jack raised his chin. "I''ve heard all these songs. I thought you would like
them, so I downloaded. As simple as that! Why would I take help?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he covered his mouth and yawned. On gazing at his face, Rachel
noticed his eyes were red and dark circles had formed under. She asked, "Did you spend all night
doing this, Jack?"
"No," Jack said, but Rachel knew this was a lie. Every time he lied, he wouldn''t meet her eyes. His
actions betrayed him.
Rachel took theputer and shut it. Catching his hand, she took him to his room. "Now go and
sleep, okay?"
Seeing the concern from her part, he was touched. But he wasn''t willing to part with her yet.
The next morning, after having breakfast, Rachel put down her chopsticks and looked at the stairs.
Noticing her gaze, Julie smiled and said, "I don''t know why Mr. Fu hasn''t woken up yet. I''ll go
upstairs and wake him up."
"No, thanks." Rachel stopped Julie. "Let him sleep a little longer."
Last night, although she asked Jack to go to bed early, he didn''t. Instead, he took her to the study.
There, he showed her the names he had shortlisted for their baby. Watching Rachel yawn, he finally
let her go. But she knew if she had encouraged, he would have sat all night talking.
It was twelve o''clock in the evening then. Even if he had fallen asleep as soon as he went to his
room, he would only get eight hours of sleep. On top of that, she knew he had skipped sleep day
before yesterday, busily downloading songs for her.
Rachel stood up and said in a low voice, "I can take a taxi to the hospital. I won''t need him to drop
me."
"But—" Julie was getting ready to protest but Rachel shushed her. In spite of this, Julie added, "Mr.
Fu said it''s not safe for you to take a taxi to work."
Shrugging her shoulders, Rachel said, "Taking a taxi is better than drowsy driving, don''t you think
so?" Listening to this, Julie had no choice but to nod her head. Soon, Rachel''s phone rang. It was
the taxi driver she had made an appointment with. He called and informed he was outside.
Rachel grabbed a fruit from the table and walked out.
Soon after she left, Jack came downstairs in a hurry. Busily buttoning up his suit button, he said,
"I''m sorry, Rachel. I overslept today. But don''t worry, I will take you to work right away."
Unexpectedly, it was Julie who came out of the kitchen. She pointed at the door and said, "Miss
Shen took a taxi to work just now. She said you were still sleeping and asked me not to wake you
up."
"How long has it been since she left?" Jack asked but there was a smile on his lips. She had done
this because she wanted him to sleep well. But if he mentioned this to her, she would object. ''You
care for me a great deal. Just admit it, Rachel, '' he thought while his smile deepened.
Julie looked at her watch and said, "I think it has only been ten minutes since she left."
