Chapter 406 Got Along With Each Other Quietly

Name:Trapped In Lace Author:Goose
Tracy took Jack's hand and walked into the yard. "I'm telling you, no matter what happens today, you must stay here and not go anywhere!"

Tracy dragged him back toward the yard hard, so Jack had no choice but to sit down on a stone bench. The girl sitting opposite him was no other than the cousin mentioned by Mr. Chen.

Scarlett stood up gracefully and held out her hand toward Jack with a smile. "Mr. Fu, I didn't expect to meet you again on such an occasion."

Hearing this, Tracy widened her eyes in surprise. "You have met each other before? Then, I don't have to introduce you anymore."

Scarlett smiled, "We met at a dinner last time, but Mr. Fu didn't seem to like me that much."

Scarlett's hand was frozen midair. Jack glanced at it coldly, having no intention of shaking her hand.

Scarlett didn't get annoyed. She kept this posture and looked at him quietly with a slight smile.

However, Tracy was anxiously watching this small exchange. She pinched Jack's immobile arm twice. Feeling awkward at her son's lack of reaction, she entreated the guest, "Scarlett, please sit down."

"Okay, Auntie, please take a seat, too." In a marked departure from her look the last time they met, Scarlett was dressed in a black dress and a mint green overcoat, which made the woman look less sexy and more elegant.

However, all of these had nothing to do with Jack. Just then, all he wanted to do was l

Young man, are you looking for the girl living here?" She pointed at Rachel's door.

Bill asked, "Yes, ma'am. Do you happen to know where she is right now?"

The old lady said, "She hasn't come back since a man came to pick her up a few days ago. I heard the two of them talking at the door. That man seemed to be the father of her baby. Maybe she went back with him after they reconciled."

Bill instantly knew that she was talking about Jack.

Rachel went back with him. Bill knew it must be the truth, but he still didn't want to believe it. He took out his phone and dialed Rachel's number. He wanted to hear it from her.

After a moment's silence, Rachel lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "Bill, I'm back here in Ninwell City. I probably won't go back there for a while, so..."

She paused and heard the sound of something falling on the floor on the other end of the line. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Don't come to me again."

"Okay," Bill answered quickly and hung up the phone. He didn't mind letting her go if it would make her happy.

The screen of her phone automatically became dim. Looking at it, Rachel felt both sad and relieved. At least, she wouldn't be a stumbling block in Bill's future anymore.

Staring at her frail-looking back, Jack wanted to reach out to hug her. But when she started to turn around, he retracted his hand and smiled as if nothing happened.
