Chapter 477 News One After Another
"Really?" Uncle James frowned and said in a skeptical tone, "Rachel, since you two have reconciled, then you two should be together well. Don't bother yourself with all these things."
"Uncle, we all know that." There was always a smile on the corner of Rachel's mouth. Although she was very anxious, she didn't know why this matter was reported so casually, even though they had promised to keep it a secret.
At this time, the MK Group was in chaos.
The telephone in Jack's office kept ringing. It was all from the reporters outside. He rubbed his temples and directly unplugged the phone.
He leaned back in his chair and looked at the news on the computer screen, frowning tightly.
When the news came out, he had already called the relevant website and media to remove the news. However, this time, it seemed that someone was deliberately making trouble behind. After several media stopped the news, the other media would report it one after another.
Until now, the situation had completely lost control.
At this time, the door of the office was knocked several times from the outside. Austin's anxious voice came clearly, "Boss, several shareholders of the company have come. They are in the next meeting room and asking you to go there right away."
Sure enough, they came.
Jack frowned, stood up and opened the locked office door. Seeing the trembling face of Austin, he calmed down and said, "Go ahead with your business. I can go to the meeting room myself."
"Okay." Thinking of the appearance of the shareholders just now, Austin couldn't help but shiver. He knew that even if he entered the meeting room with them, it would not be of any help. He might as well return to his desk and sit down to check the current trend of public opinion on the Internet.
The mouse moved flexibly in his hand. As soon as he opened more than a dozen related web pages, Austin suddenly heard Rachel's voice. He looked up at her in disbelief, "Miss Rachel, why are you here?"
"I'm looking for Jack. Is he in his office now?" Rachel was a little nervous.
After talking with Uncle James at the gate of the hospital, she couldn't calm down. After thinking for a while, she finally decided to take a taxi to the company to see how Jack was going.
Hearing that, Austin frowned and then sighed heavily. "All the shareholders have come just now. Now the boss is greeting them in the meeting room."
Rachel asked, "Do you know why they came here?"
Austin shook his head. "I don't know. But they look angry when they came in."
After saying that, he saw the frown on Rachel's face and her hands on her waist. He quickly changed the topic and said, "Miss Rachel, why don't you go to the boss's office first? I guess the boss will come out soon. It's hard for you to stand like this."
"Okay." Rachel nodded. When she walked into the office, she couldn't help glancing at the meeting room.
As soon as the matter was brought up, all the shareholders who seldom showed up in usual came at once. It must have something to do with it.
Besides, those who came aggressively might not be back so easily, right?
Normally, half an hour was just a few pages for Rachel to read. But today, when she looked at her watch again and again, she found that time passed so slowly.
Finally, the door of the office was gently pushed open from the outside.
She stood up in a hurry, but because she was too anxious to see clearly, she tripped over the leg of the tea table and staggered a few steps. When she was about to fall, fortunately, Jack strode over, tightly holding her arms with his hands. He frowned and said in a subconscious tone of fear, "Be careful. What if you fall?"
"I'm fine." Rachel didn't care about it at all. Instead, she raised her head and stared at him. "What did the shareholders say? How is it?"
Holding her hand, Jack walked to the sofa and let Rachel sit down. Then he squatted in front of her, lifted her right foot and turned her ankle. "Did you stumble over this foot just now?"
Rachel tried to pull her feet back, but Jack pulled her back with more strength. Regardless of her wearing shoes, he put it directly on his legs.
She had no choice. She knew that if she didn't say anything, Jack would definitely not let her go. She could only say in a low voice, "I'm fine. I just stumbled by accident just now."
"Okay." Jack replied in a low voice. He put his hands on her ankle and gently massaged it for a while before he put her right foot down again, Rachel held his hand and let him sit down. Then she patted the dust on his trousers. All of a sudden, she had mixed feelings.
Jack had always been like this. When he was really good to a person, he could dote on her, as if she was the happiest person in the world.
This was how Rachel felt now. Although she was moved, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. His business was more important than anything else. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cry.
Jack wiped away the tears on Rachel's face slowly, and gently stroked her skin with his thumb. However, the tears were even fiercer. She choked, "I don't want to cry, but..."
"Well, I understand. The more late stage of pregnancy is, the more emotional she will be." Jack said in a low voice.
He knew that Rachel was worried about him too much, but she was like him, was also unwilling to show her weakness to others.
Hearing this, Rachel couldn't help holding him tightly, leaning her head on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, and said solemnly, "Jack, no matter what happens, I will be with you."
"That's enough to me."
This time, even Jack's eyes turned a little red.
The chain reaction of this matter seemed to be far more powerful than expected. Although the news was covered up by the affair of a male star in the entertainment circle on the second day, it was not so easy to suppress the storm in the business circle.
On this day, Rachel was sitting in the living room and reading a parenting book. She kept glancing at the kitchen.
Wearing an apron, Jack stood in front of the dining table in the kitchen and helped her prepare today's lunch.
That day in the company, the shareholders came to say something. Although Rachel asked, Jack avoided talking about it. She knew that he didn't want her to worry, so she didn't ask too much.
In the past two days, he seemed to have a sudden leisure, preparing some of her favorite food at home every day.
Just like today, early in the morning, he said that he would prepare dumplings for her. Then he and Julie made dumpling wrappers and meat fillings by themselves. They even made three kinds of dumplings, including steamed dumplings, dumplings with sauce and baked dumplings.
Rachel thought it would be good if he could do these things to shift his attention.
At this time, Jack's voice came from the kitchen, pulling her thoughts back. "It's all done. Come and have a taste."
"Okay, but I'm picky." Putting down the book, Rachel stood up and walked to the dining table.
However, just as she approached, Jack's mobile phone rang, but he didn't notice it at all. He continued to do what he was doing, pouring a pile of Rachel's favorite seasonings, put them in front of her, and handed her a pair of chopsticks. He looked at her with expectation, "Have a taste. How does it taste?"
Glancing at her phone on the table, Rachel asked in a low voice, "I can do these by myself. You'd better answer the phone first."
Jack put down the plate and went to the kitchen with his mobile phone. He lowered his voice when he answered the phone. Rachel didn't want to listen to his phone, but the house was too quiet.
Although his voice was very low, it was clearly heard by Rachel.
After a while, Jack came back as if nothing had happened. He put down his phone and looked at the dumplings on her plate. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why don't you eat? Doesn't it taste good?"
Shaking her head, Rachel struggled in her heart and asked, "Jack, do you have many projects terminated the contract?"
"You heard?" Jack's eyes darkened, and then he smiled faintly, "It's normal for one or two contractors to terminate the contract."
Rachel frowned. "Does it have anything to do with what happened before?"
Jack reached out and gently patted her head two times, "Don't think too much. It doesn't matter."
As soon as Rachel finished speaking, Jack's cell phone rang again. She clearly saw that Jack frowned. Although the corners of his mouth were still upward, she noticed the cruelty in his eyes.
This time, Jack went to the yard outside with his mobile phone.
Through the floor to ceiling window, Rachel saw that the more he said, the more excited he became. She couldn't help but sigh slightly. At the moment he came in, she said calmly, "Jack, I am fine here. You can go to the company first. I think you are very busy."
"No." Jack pulled out the chair opposite and sat down. He pushed the plate with steamed dumplings in front of Rachel and said, "Try this. The filling inside is different."
The dumplings were very delicious, but Rachel was not in the mood to taste them at the moment. It tasted like wax in her mouth, but she didn't want Jack to worry more, so she raised the corners of her mouth, as if with a hint of joy. "It's delicious, I like it very much."
