Chapter 339 Will You Accept Me Again

The single bed that he had moved to the master bedroom was pushed back into the study at Rachel's insistence. Because of this, Jack had to sleep in the study for the next few days.

For several nights, he tried to sneak back into Rachel's room, only to find that she had already locked the door.

However, when he tried to open the door this time around, it was unlocked. When he pushed it open, he could see Rachel changing into her pajamas. Her loud shriek shocked him out of his reverie, and he immediately closed the door.

Rachel's face turned bright red. "Don't you know how to knock?" she shouted as her glare darkened.

He didn't expect that he would catch her naked. "I'll pay attention next time," he promised. "Are you decent now?"

"You can come in."

Glancing at the thick pajamas she was wearing, he resisted the urge to groan. 'Why not wear some thin nightgown?' However, he didn't dare to express his thought.

Rachel crossed her arms over her chest, feeling uncomfortable at the way that he stared at her. "Why are you looking for me?" she snapped.

Although the two of them had already seen each other naked, it was still embarrassing for her, especially since she wasn't ready to accept him yet.

His mouth twitched. "I cooked noodles."

"Oh, I've already eaten." Her voice lowered guiltily.

When she saw that Jack's face had darkened immensely, she protested weakly, "I didn't know that we're supposed eat together."

Before she could finish her words, he slammed the door to her bedr

ore. "See you later," she said.

She might as well go for a walk.

The air in the suburbs was fresh. Rachel just spent the time listening to Bill about the movie he had just watched last night. She smiled and asked questions from time to time, but usually, she just let him do the talking.

Soon enough, it was already getting dark.

He glanced at his watch. "Finally, the party has just started. I don't have to go."

"Congratulations!" She grinned.

"What do you want to eat? It's my treat."

After taking two steps forward, he slapped his forehead in exasperation. "I forgot to by some medicine for Andy. He says that he's been suffering from a stomachache."

"Go ahead."

Bill grabbed her arm. "Let's go together, so I can still treat you to dinner."

Sitting in the car, she watched as he trotted inside the venue. She rolled the windows down and appreciated the gusts of wind blowing at her face. She closed her eyes and rested.

At that time, Jack and Michael also got out of the car.

Tonight's host was Michael's business partner. They had multiple projects together, so he had to come to this party. As one of the shareholders of the company, Jack was also invited.

The two of them headed to the entrance when suddenly, Michael took two steps back and pointed at the car beside him. "Is that Rachel?"

At the familiar voice, she froze. It was then that she understood what having bad luck entailed.

When she opened her eyes, she was met with Jack's frightening glare. "Why are you here?"
