My Darling, My Dearest

Chapter 175

Jack's personal life wasn't known to his employees.

Although he was often ranked as one of the top golden bachelors in Ninwell City, he kept his private life pretty low-key.

They heard about his wife, but they had no idea if the woman they were referring to was the lady in front of them.

Some of them thought Jack was also a playboy who kept his love life low-key.

Actually, some of them even wondered whether their boss was actually gay given that most of his employees were male. In fact, even his secretary was a guy!

When it came to Jack, different gossips concerning him circulated the entertainment circle.

Besides, he was a rich and handsome man who had attracted many women. It wasn't any wonder why they were so interested with his orientation and the lady with him.

They finally arrived at the first floor. Jack didn't leave the elevator with Rachel until the others had left.

There were so many people staring at them in public.

Rachel shuffled awkwardly. She felt that the intimacy wasn't good for his image in the company,

so she tried to break away from his hold.

However, as soon as she moved, he grabbed her hand even more tightly. His slender fingertips wrapped around her warm hand.

She raised her eyes slightly, seeing the aristocratic details on his face.

There was something about him that made her relax.

'There's nothing to be afraid of,' she thought.

'It's his image, not mine.'

Without another word, she allowed him to lead her out into the entrance. The driver had been waiting for them. When he saw them coming out, he immediately got out and opened the door located at the back seat.

Jack assisted her inside. "Call me when you get there, okay?"

"Okay." The driver closed the door.

He looked up at the driver, as if he wanted to say something, but he quickly changed his mind.

"Drive slowly. Call me when you arrive," he said strictly.

"Yes, Mr. Fu."

After getting in the car, the driver looked at the rear-view mirror. "Mrs. Fu, where do you want to go?"

Rachel clicked on the location Lea had sent her before handing it to the driver. "Here."

Jack stood still and watched the car leave.

Once he was sure that they were gone, he turned and headed back into the office.

Two men had been inconspicuously hiding in the flowerbed.

"Did you get the pictures?"

One of the men smirked, waving his camera up and down. "Yes, I did."

It seemed that their hours of waiting wasn't in vain, especially with the scene that they had just taken.

The rumors were true. They had just seen Jack exit the company with a woman in his arms. He even stroked her hair and whispered sweet loving words into her ear.

All of their moves were caught on camera.

This would be the biggest news they had! They could be promoted with this! In fact, they could probably earn a thousand bucks with these pictures.

"Let me see. Did you get her face?"

"Of course I did," the man protested. "She's quite pretty."

"Dude, do you think a rich guy like that would find an ugly woman?" he snorted, examining the pictures.

"Don't they say she's his wife?"

"As if I know. I don't have the evidence."

"Do we go back now then?"

The man handed the camera back to his

companion and smiled. It was a good day for the both of them. "Let's go." They stepped forward, in hopes that they could finally get the big bonus that they had been dreaming of. Jack had always been such a hot topic in the gossip articles,

and now, they finally had proof about a small detail

in the man's life.

However, as they were walking towards the car holding their camera, two suited men appeared in front of them.

They didn't need to be geniuses to know that they were probably Jack's security team. The reporters didn't think twice as they turned and ran the other way.

However, the professional bodyguards were much better than them.

Before they could run farther, the two men pressed against them mercilessly. The reporters were so scared that they screamed for mercy. "Please," they gasped out as they struggled under their grip, but it was to no avail.

They closed their eyes, as if preparing for their

end.

The place they had hidden in was an extremely remote place, Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

but it seemed that its remoteness had only played badly for the both of them.

"Stop yelling," the bodyguard commanded. "Hand me the camera."

In the entertainment industry, reporters had

gotten used to being caught in the act. However, celebrities and businessmen alike had different ways in driving them away.

There was one time when they photographed a wealthy merchant. After being found, they were almost beaten to death.

The two reporters still remembered that day, and right now, the two guards behind them were as strong as cattle.

They didn't dare test them. All they wanted was not to be sent to the nearest hospital.

Upon hearing the command, one of them handed over the camera.

The other man placed his hands over his head as he repeatedly bowed. "I'm sorry! We apologize. We didn't mean to take any pictures! Please let us go!"

The bodyguards took the camera. Without another word, he took out the memory card and destroyed all the data inside before returning the object to him.

The other man stood up. Seeing that they had lost all the photos that they had taken, they felt as if their efforts had all been in vain.

The reporters' hearts ached.

However, when they met the guard's cold gaze, they immediately turned away.

'Cowards!' one of the bodyguards snorted inwardly as he gripped the memory card in his hand.

"There's no back up, right?"

"No! Of course not! That's all we have," the men hurriedly explained as they waved their hands up in the air.

Under the scorching day, the reporters could already feel the pavements burning their faces. Tears streamed down their cheeks. "Please! Please just let us go! I beg you!"

The bodyguard sneered. "Even if you have any back up, it'll be useless."

Another man echoed, "Do you really think that your boss would let you post these pictures on the Internet?"

As long as the Fu family didn't agree to it, no photo of Jack and his wife would spread online.

Jack would never allow such a thing to happen.

Before long, these photos were sent to him.

There weren't many pictures, and most of them were blurred.

"I didn't expect that the paparazzi would be this good at taking pictures," he commented.

One of the pictures showed Jack standing face to face with Rachel. He was stroking her messy hair as she looked up at him with a smile on his face. It had captured such a beautiful candid moment between the couple.

It had captured the joy in Rachel's eyes as well as the affection in Jack's. It mirrored the couple perfectly that he just had to keep this picture.

Since it was shot so well, he decided to let the reporters off with a warning. It wasn't as if he didn't want to release the news. It was just that he wanted to reveal her identity bit by bit.

After all, Rachel wasn't a star. They had no need of getting any detail from her.

What Jack wanted to do was remove any sort of rumor about Rachel. He thought it was better to announce it himself as to remove any unnecessary information off the press.

Rachel wouldn't be able to deal with the pressure if gossip were to come out.

He had to exclude any gossip from her as to let her live happily with him.

As of the moment, Rachel had no idea what was happening. She was too busy shopping with Lea.

The two women were very different. While Rachel would only buy things she needed, Lea would try everything she liked.

It would usually lead to a domino effect wherein she'd buy a pair of shoes, then a dress, then a cardigan, then a pair of sunglasses and so on.

Every time she went shopping with Lea, they would return holding loads of shopping bags.

However, this time, Lea didn't seem to be in a good mood.

It seemed as if she had gotten rich over night from the way she was swiping her card left and right.

After a while, Lea called her driver to send her stuff home first.
