Chapter 226 Borrow Her Warmth

Rachel was shocked. How could Joe have such a high praise for Clark and the Ji group?

Sitting aside, Chester coughed several times.

Joe didn't pay much attention to his warning and continued, "in the whole M City, I think no one can be
younger and more ambitious than the heir of the Ji group. Didn't you cooperate with the Ji group
before? Don't you know that? "

Rachel shook her head blankly, "I was concentrating on filming at that time, so I didn't pay much
attention to it. Of course I know Mr. Clark is powerful. The Ji group is a very large group, but I really
don't know their position in this city. "

Although she said so, what was on her mind was the meeting with [季凉川] just now. Did he do it on
purpose?

This was his shop, and he even asked [季清怡] out to eat hot pot. Was he kidding her?

"Why haven't you come to eat hot pot yet?" Rachel texted Amanda

Seeing her reaction, Chester knew what he should do.

While eating, Joe continued to talk about the status and influence of the Ji Group in M City, and
Chester responded from time to time.

In fact, in his heart, Chester admired Clark, but he couldn't bear to see that Clark neglected Rachel and
tortured her from time to time, so he couldn't help but have a prejudice against Clark

Chester had always regarded Rachel as a goddess. He held her in his hands for fear of falling, but he
was afraid of melting her in his mouth. He carefully wanted to save her.



But what about Clark? He pushed her to the front again and again, watching her suffer and pretending
that "you deserve it".

How could Chester not hate Clark?

"Ding Dong!" Rachel's phone had ringed.

Amanda only sent a question Emoji.

Then, a second message came in, "when did you ask me out for hotpot?"

'is it because Clark came out to eat hot pot alone? He doesn't think it's appropriate, so he said he ate
hot pot with Amanda to save face?' Rachel thought?

Rachel didn't want to expose him, so she just replied, "I was eating in your hot pot restaurant. I thought
you would appear here."

She put away her phone and continued to eat, only to find that the two men in front of her had put down
their chopsticks and were looking at her greedily.

"What's wrong?" Rachel was too scared to continue eating, so she put down her chopsticks and asked
uneasily.

Joe looked her up and down and asked, "it seems that you just met the ex agent, Clark Ji?"

Rachel smiled awkwardly, "why do you ask this?"

"I see that you are absent-minded, so I care more about you." Said Joe curiously.

There was more inquiry in Chester's eyes.

Rachel lowered her head and didn't answer.



"Well, hurry up and eat. We are full and are going back home!" Seeing that she was shy, Joe couldn't
help smiling, changing the topic and urging her.

Rachel was relieved. After eating for a while, she put down her chopsticks with satisfaction.

"Waiter, pay the bill!" Chester waved at the door.

A waitress came in and smiled politely to everyone. "Sir, the bill for this table has been paid by the next
table."

"paid? Who paid it? " Chester was confused.

The waitress still smiled and said, "our Mr. Clark said that Miss Rachel is his friend. As long as Miss
Rachel comes in the future, her and her friend's consumption on the spot will be free."

Chester and Joe looked at Rachel, which made her feel embarrassed.

"It seems that we have had a domineering meal today thanks to miss Rachel!" Joe joked, stood up and
left the room first.

Chester said "Since Clark is so generous, we must eat more hot pot with Miss Rachel in the future!"

Rachel glanced at him and said, "don't make fun of me!"

The two of them finally stood up and left.

After returning to her residence, Rachel asked Mindy, "tell me the truth. Did you tell Clark where I
was?"

Mindy shook her head immediately and said honestly, "I swear, I have never done such a thing of
selling my master for wealth! It was The staff of the hotpot restaurant knew me and knew you were
here. Inform him in private. "



"Are you sure?"

"Yes, because that old acquaintance came to my room to talk to me." Mindy said seriously.

"Well, why are his spies everywhere?" Rachel sighed.

With some hesitation, Mindy said, "in fact, Mr. Clark really cares about you, but unfortunately He has
too many things that he can't control. He has to look at you in this way. "

With a self mockery in her tone, Rachel waved her hand and said, "needless to say, it's impossible for
me to be with him. He is the favored one, the controller of the economic lifeline of M City He is so
powerful. How can a junior like me covet him? "

Mindy remained silent.

At this time, Ceil came in with fruits.

Rachel said to Mindy, "you can go downstairs to have a look. I have something to talk to Ceil."

Mindy nodded and left soon.

Ceil looked at her in confusion, "Miss, have you got any new news?"

With her hands grasping Ceil's wrist, Rachel couldn't hold back her tears anymore and cried wildly,
"Ceil, my parents they were poisoned to death by that vicious woman Teresa! "

These words were like a bolt from the blue, directly flashing through Ceil's mind. She was stunned
there for a long time.

"It's her! She poisoned them! This is her favorite trick! " Ceil said with lingering fear when she came to
herself.



Tears welled up in Rachel's eyes. "How could she be so vicious? Why didn't you poison me to death? "

Ceil stopped her immediately, "Miss, don't be silly! She used to mistreat you to vent her anger. If you
die so easily, how can she vent her hatred for your father? "

Besides, it's God's bless that you didn't die under her abuse. Maybe God wants you to seek justice for
your parents! " Ceil sighed slightly.

A hint of coldness flashed through Rachel's eyes. "If it weren't for the fear of the law, I would have
poisoned them as well!"

Terrifying, Ceil shook her head like a rattle. "No, miss, don't lose your mind! If you really do this, your
life will be ruined! If your parents know it, they will definitely not agree! "

Rachel gradually calmed down. She grabbed Ceil's hand and sobbed, "Ceil, I just want to vent my
anger. Don't worry. I won't humiliate myself like that. I don't have any relatives around me. Since you
came, you have taken good care of me and cared about me I feel mother's warmth from you. "

Ceil breathed a sigh of relief, but her face gradually became desolate. She lowered her head and said,
"in fact, I was an orphan when I was a child. I have no parents. After I left the orphanage, I went to the
Yan family to be a cook. I'm not well-educated. "

"Later, I couldn't tolerate Teresa's face. I was afraid that I would die in their hands one day, so I found
an excuse to resign. When I came out, I met a very good honest man. we got married, had children and
worked hard to raise the son. But my husband was gone, and my son is abroad. We haven't seen each
other for a few years. "

"When I saw you, I thought of myself when I was a child. Naturally, I treated you as my own child This
was probably a mother's instinct! Please don't blame me, my lady. If you think I have crossed the line, I
will pay attention to it in the future... "



However, Rachel reached out to hug her and said, "Ceil, how about you accept me as your
goddaughter! I really want to have a mother. It's good to borrow her warmth... "
