My Darling, My Dearest

Chapter 398 I Want To Be Nice To You

Looking at Austin's expression, Jack frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Tell me."

"During your absence, Mr. Chen asked us to take all the documents to his office." Austin had actually wanted to stop them, but he had no way to do so.

Jack glanced at the vice president's office and smiled coldly. "That's good then."

'Good?' Austin thought inwardly.

He had been Jack's assistant for so many years and he thought he already knew him well. But this time, he couldn't figure out what he meant.

Jack was deep in thought for a while before he said coldly again, "I believe you have a copy of our organizational chart and the department job description on your computer. Mr. Chen must have forgotten the details of his job description. Print a copy and give it to him."

Mr. Chen was one of MK Group's shareholders. It was very likely that he took over Jack's job intentionally to lay a foundation for their plans.

Austin scratched his head when he finally realized what Jack meant. "Yes, Mr. Fu. I should have thought about that from the very start." Rachel rested at home for days, and she felt better now, so she decided to go back to work. After slowly preparing everything, she was about to go out when the doorbell rang.

Bill was standing at the door with a shopping bag in his hand. Seeing Rachel dressed and holding a bag in her hand too, his brows creased as he asked, "Are you going to school?"

"Yes. I have a class today." Rachel simply pulled her long black hair back and tied it into a ponytail.

Bill nodded and smiled. "I'll drive you there. Let me put these inside first."

He arranged everything he brought inside the fridge. Only a bottle of warm milk and a sandwich were left in the bag. He took them out and handed them to Rachel. "I know you haven't eaten breakfast yet."

"Bill, you don't have to do this." She felt a little guilty.

That day in the car, when he asked her if it would be okay that he took care of her, she refused without hesitation. But he didn't seem to mind it. He still came to her house every day.

And every time he came over, he always carried shopping bags in his hands.

Bill lowered his head and turned to wash his hands in the sink to hide the disappointment in his eyes. "Rachel, I want to be nice to you." "But Bill, if you continue to act like this, you will only put me under so much pressure."

Despite everything that happened, there was still only one person in her heart. No matter how long it took or what Bill did, he couldn't ever replace Jack in her heart.

She didn't want to give Bill false hopes. As much as possible, she didn't want him to waste his time on her.

Bill walked over to her and took her bag. "Rachel, you don't need to feel stressed. I'm your friend. You can even treat me as your brother. Think of me as a brother who is taking care of my pregnant sister."

Sensing that she wanted to say something, he quickly changed the topic. "What time is your class? We won't be late, will we?"

"No, we won't."

Rachel smiled and didn't say anything more.

Bill's car slowly stopped in front of the school gate. Rachel had also finished eating the breakfast he made. She was about to get out of the car when he asked softly, "What time will you be off work? I'll come to pick you up."

"No, thanks. I'll just take a taxi home." She didn't want to bother him anymore.

However, he ignored her answer and insisted. Left with no choice, she told him what time her class would end. Rachel stood at the gate and watched Bill's car driving slowly into the traffic. She couldn't help but sigh. Sometimes, someone's too much kindness could also be a burden.

She didn't know how she could repay him for everything he had done for her.

When Bill's car was already out of her sight, she turned around and slowly walked to the school. Suddenly, she felt someone tapped her shoulder, and a cheerful voice rang in her ears. "Hello, Miss Shen. How are you now?"

She smiled and answered, "Feeling much better."

It was Mrs. Zhu, a surgeon professor. Although she was already in her mid-forties, her body was well-maintained. Her skin was white as snow and almost wrinkle-free.

When people asked her what her secret was, she would always answer with a smile, "Always be happy."

Rachel added, "I was able to rest well for two days, so I'm okay now. Thanks for asking."

"I'm glad to hear that." Mrs. Zhu held her arm and looked back. She pointed at the direction where Bill's car had left and asked, "Is he your boyfriend? I saw him from the car's window. He is so handsome."

"No." Rachel didn't expect that one of her coworkers would see her with Bill. She felt a little embarrassed, but she just smiled and said, "He is my brother. He's worried that I'm still not feeling well, so he offered to drive me here."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I misunderstood."

Mrs. Zhu covered her mouth and giggled. She seemed to be thinking of something when she suddenly asked, "Does he have a girlfriend?"

"No, he doesn't."

As soon as she answered, Mrs. Zhu suddenly let go of her arm and clapped excitedly. "That's good, Miss Shen. I have a cousin who is twenty-five years old. She has just started to work as a high school PE teacher. She's beautiful, with a pleasing personality and good family background. However, she's a little introverted. Since your brother is single, why don't we arrange them for a blind date? What do you think?"

'A Blind date?' Rachel thought.

She didn't expect that Mrs. Zhu would suggest such a thing. She was a little muddled.

Mrs. Zhu thought that Rachel was still hesitant, so she immediately took out her phone and said, "Let me show you her picture. Believe me, she is really beautiful."

Looking at the energetic Mrs. Zhu, Rachel was rendered speechless. She kept on telling Mrs. Zhu that she couldn't decide for Bill, but the latter seemed to ignore her and kept on talking about her cousin.

Finally, she thought of an excuse to cut her off. "Mrs. Zhu, I'm sorry I have to prepare for my class now. Let's talk about it next time."

As she walked through the corridor, she passed by a couple of students. They were playing games, chatting, and reading their notes. Everyone's face was full of joy and happiness. She couldn't help sighing. She thought that if her aunt hadn't regained her memory, would she be much happier than these students now?

After that incident, Eric accompanied Linda abroad to find a specialist that would check on her condition thoroughly. They had called her once, but she was not able to answer it because she had a job interview at that time.

She thought it was better that way. After all, she didn't know what to say to them. She didn't want to hear anything about the past, either.

When the bell rang, Rachel packed her things up and was about to leave when a student stopped her. "Miss Shen!"

A student trotted to the platform, pointed at the board and asked with a frown, "I can't understand. Why is this answer a little different from what we have learned before?"

Seeing the seriousness on the student's face, Rachel changed her position and explained it in detail. She got engrossed with the student that she didn't notice more than half an hour had already passed.

Bill had been waiting at the gate for a long time. He looked at his watch from time to time, wondering why Rachel had not come out yet.

Worried that something might have happened to her, he got out of the car and walked towards the campus. He asked around and went straight to the faculty room. There were many teachers there, but he couldn't see Rachel.

He knocked at the door, smiled, and asked like a gentleman, "Hello. I'm looking for Rachel Shen. May I know where is her class right now?"

A male teacher with glasses on the bridge of his nose raised his head. Without taking his gaze away from Bill, he reached out and knocked on the partition wall on his left. "Miss Shen, someone is looking for you."

After his words, everyone in the office burst into laughter. Mrs. Zhu put down her pen and stood up. With one hand on her belly, she said, "Mr. Chen, turn around and have a look. Miss Shen's is not here."

She then looked at the door and was surprised to see Bill standing there. She didn't expect to see him again today after this morning, so she got overjoyed and became enthusiastic. "I think I know where she is. Let me take you there."

"Thanks." Bill nodded and smiled. Rachel gently rubbed the back of her hip. She felt like her condition was getting worse. She just stood there for a while, and she already felt that her waist sore. Looking at the student's still confused face, she couldn't help asking, "Don't you still get it?"

The student didn't answer at once. He seemed to be contemplating her explanations. To give him time to absorb everything, she quietly picked up her teacup and took a sip. As soon as she put it back down, she saw Mrs. Zhu and Bill stop at the door. With eyes wide open, she asked, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to pick you up." Rachel could tell that Bill was in a bad mood.

Mrs. Zhu scratched her head, looking a little embarrassed. "I have to finish something in the office. I'll leave you two now."

At this time, the student suddenly pounded the table in front of him. With a delighted expression on his face, he said, "Miss Shen, I finally get it. I'll go to the dissecting room to study this. Thank you so much for your time."

He ran out without even taking his book with him. Rachel and Bill were left in the classroom.

Rachel picked up her bag and walked towards the door slowly. When she raised her head, Bill had already taken her stuff and supported her with his other hand. Author's note
