Chapter 371 I'll Go With You

"How is that possible?" Nearly finished with her dinner, Rachel put down her chopsticks and stared at the other woman. "Celia's still young. Besides, she doesn't know me very well. You've known me for many years, and you already know what kind of person I am."

"I know that you are not angry," Lea replied. "Go to the hospital tomorrow and have a good talk with her. I guess she has been feeling down these past two days. After all, one cannot choose their family." Lea felt a little sad about the situation, but she took note of Rachel's strange reaction. She had her head bent down, so her expression was hidden, and she didn't say anything.

Lea was about to ask her when Henry's ringtone played on her mobile. As it turned out, Rita wanted to sleep but was looking for her mother. She refused to sleep regardless of Henry's powers of persuasion. Now, she was crying so hard that her voice was almost hoarse.

After all, her daughter was her priority, so Lea had to give up the topic. She hurriedly picked up her bag and said on her way out, "Remember to talk to Celia."

Rachel thought that it was not that simple.

To her, it seemed like the leak of information was not accidental, but was done on purpose. If the leak originated from someone who had overheard something and spread it through the grapevine, then there was nothing to worry about.

The thing was, she was afraid that it was the Ji family who did this.

Their intent was apparent—they wanted to warn Celia and let her know she could never enter the Ji family. At the same time, they wanted to completely sever the relationship between the Xu family and the Fu family.

Rachel couldn't keep the shiver that t

The atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy. Jack pulled on his night robe and said, "Well, don't worry about it. I will deal with it myself."

However, before he could deal with it, the call from the Ji family came by chance.

It was Marcus's father, Larry, who called, asking to meet up with Jack to discuss something. Although he didn't mention any details over the call, it was obvious that Larry wanted to discuss Marcus' relationship with Celia.

After Jack ended the call, Rachel watched as he began to take out the clothes and head to the bathroom to change. Hesitating, she stood behind him and finally said, "Jack, I'll go with you."

Jack, who was shaking out a dark suit, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What for?"

"I want to hear what he is going to say to you. What do you think? Is it okay for me to come with you?" Rachel smiled and winked at him.

He patted her head. He had no reason to refuse her request.

The private meeting hall was located at the foot of the mountain. It was well decorated and divided into small rooms, which offered excellent privacy to the establishment's patrons. Jack mentioned to the concierge that he was meeting up with Larry there.

Behind Jack, Rachel walked into the innermost private room and pushed the door open. A middle-aged man in his fifties was seated inside. The man's hair was neatly combed behind his head with hair gel. A pair of thin glasses sat on the bridge of his nose, but the glasses failed to block the man's shrewd eyes.

He was wearing a black suit, which indicated his meticulousness and seriousness at any given occasion.

Jack reached out his hand and smiled. "Uncle Larry, it has been a while."
