Chapter 226 Rachel Witnessed Everything

Thankfully, Jack's superior memory allowed him to eventually remember who the man in front of him
was.

He was the same man who sent flowers to Celine several times when he was still with her.

'Why did she ended up with this guy?' Jack wondered to himself. A brief astonishment flashed across
his eyes, but he quickly recovered and returned to normal.

Even though it was but a momentary surprise, Baron caught it on Jack's face and he instantly changed
his countenance to a mocking look.

He also wrapped his arm around Celine's waist and pulled her tightly to him. He then rubbed his chin
arrogantly as he stared at Jack.

He was visibly pompous as he mockingly looked at Jack as if he achieved something spectacular.

Unknown to Baron, Celine felt extremely embarrassed with what he was doing.

And this was how the situation reversed itself without warning.

Celine used to think that Baron was romantic and sweet, and it was this wrong first impression on him
that made her feel embarrassed at that moment. She couldn't even dare to look at Jack straight in the
eye.

Celine's mind was in such a mess. The situation caught her off guard. She felt so resentful and hated
Baron for arriving at the worst possible time.

Her only hope was that Jack would not ask or say anything about the situation, and that she could
leave from that place as soon as possible.



She knew that she had to come up with another way to please Jack again. All of her best cards were
messed up by Baron's sudden appearance.

Unfortunately, what Celine wanted was completely different from what Baron wanted. Unlike her, he
was eager to take her tightly by the arm and parade her off in front of Jack.

Sometimes, a man's pride can be greatly affected by his self-esteem. Baron basked in the brief
surprised look that Jack had on his face when he held Celine in his arms.

In his mind, Baron believed that the reason why Jack looked that way was because he felt jealous with
what he saw.

Jack's ex-girlfriend was now in his arms, and Jack and Celine had been together for four years.

Baron laughed and snorted in his mind as he satisfied himself in the thought that Jack was steaming in
jealousy as he watched them.

"Mr. Fu, do you have a habit of putting your arms around another man's girlfriend?"

Baron asked with eyes filled with contempt. In Jack's mind, however, it was not even worth his time to
answer.

Jack didn't even think that it was worth it to reply to him. Baron felt that Jack was about to say
something to him and expectantly waited for it with such yearning in his heart.

However, to his surprise, Jack turned around and left with a bored look on his face. Baron's mocking
look suddenly evaporated. He suddenly felt belittled by Jack.

Baron let go of Celine, his face grim with disappointment and embarrassment. He then walked towards
Jack who strode briskly away from him. "Mr. Fu! Are you leaving without giving me an explanation?"



Jack paused and glanced scornfully at Baron and Celine. "I have nothing to say to the likes of you."

Celine was stunned by the way Jack looked at them and felt so embarrassed and ashamed at the
same time that she looked away.

Baron snorted in contempt at Jack's statement. "I heard that you were both present at that time.
Perhaps your secret date was discovered, so you hurt that man and called Celine to take the blame."

Jack's mouth twitched as he visibly tried to hold back his laughter. He tried to maintain an
expressionless face, but found it so hard in the face of Baron's sheer stupidity.

'Is this man mad? How could he come up with such a ridiculous idea?' Jack wondered.

He curled his lips in contempt. "If you have a mental health issue, take some medicine before
appearing in public. You're just making yourself look like a bigger fool than you already are."

He then turned and was about to leave, but Baron called out to him from behind. "Don't try to pretend
that you are so noble. Swear to me that you don't have any feelings for Celine!"

His roaring voice echoed through the corridor.

Although most of the policemen considered it an idol scene, some of the ones on duty decided to
remind them about where they were. "Excuse me, gentlemen. You need to take your problem
somewhere else to solve it. You cannot make any commotion in here."

It was the policeman who brought Baron in from outside.

However, what no one expected to happen

was that Jack stopped, and this made Celine's heart skip a beat as she gasped.

Her eyes seem to twinkle as she stared at Jack's back.



And then, at almost the same time, Rachel swung her dress and approached slowly with a calm and
cool manner that no one in there expected.

Jack was the tallest man inside and Rachel recognized him immediately at a glance.

At that time, Jack turned around as Rachel approached, and she heard what Baron said just in time.

Rachel then wondered what Jack planned to do when he paused and turned.

She paused and immediately saw Celine and her burning gaze through the crowd.

It was just a short distance, but it felt like they were separated by thousands or mountains and rivers.

It was like there was a huge gap in front of her and she couldn't see the way forward clearly.

She stood dazed as she imagined that she'd see the scene where Jack would walk towards Celine.

She then saw Jack take a step forward, slightly lower his head and whisper something in Baron's ear.

Celine half expected that Jack would walk over to her as she watched him move forward, but instead
he stopped to say something to Baron.

The fire in her eyes was immediately extinguished as if a basin of cold water was poured over her.

She had no idea what Jack said to Baron, but when he was done speaking, Baron's face suddenly
changed.

Celine was about to say something, but Jack turned around and pushed the man that blocked his way
and he continued to leave.

Celine was about to chase Jack, but she stopped when she suddenly saw a woman who stood not far
away from him.



She felt like letting out her arrogant nature, but her cowardly side took over her instead.

Celine found it impossible to get herself to straighten up in front of this woman. And in her moment of
hesitation, she watched as Jack approached the woman and said in a surprised tone of voice, "Why did
you come in here?"

Celine watched Jack helplessly, as he walked to another woman without even looking back.

Jealousy burned in her eyes, and she slowly clenched her hands into fists.

Rachel closely watched Jack's expression silently and found nothing unusual except the surprise in his
eyes when he saw her.

He neither looked guilty nor panicked.

But Rachel didn't answer his question. Instead, she moved her eyes from Jack to the man behind him.

Baron turned towards Jack and his eyes grew wide in disbelief. He never expected that the woman was
known to Jack.

The moment he saw Rachel's face, his mind was suddenly muddled by different thoughts. He was
immediately stunned by her beauty.

'How could Jack be so lucky to meet all kinds of beauties? He's such a lucky bastard!' Baron thought to
himself.

He thought of Celine and Rachel.

But Baron's expression turned to normal, and he deliberately snorted at their backs.

And just like a contemptible scoundrel, he felt an urgent need of another person's attention.



In Celine's eyes, at the very least, that was exactly what kind of person he was.

Rachel felt that although Jack looked straightforward and calm, there was a trace of annoyance or guilt
in his eyes.

And Rachel felt uncomfortable with this like a lump was stuck in her throat.

"I heard that something happened to you, so I came here to check on you," Rachel replied in a calm
voice.

What she said made Jack feel warm inside.

He reached out his hand to Rachel, but she moved away to avoid him. Jack was stunned by her
reaction.

But she pretended not to notice the change in his countenance. She looked straight at Jack and then
asked, "Why? What happened?"

"She hurt someone," he replied to her.

They both knew who he was referring to.

Rachel's heart suddenly felt sour, and she slightly turned her head away from Jack.

"Oh? Is it solved?"

But before Jack could reply to Rachel's question, Baron just can't bear the thought of not getting to
prove that he existed to these two. "Jack Fu, are you not going to give me an explanation for what
happened today?"

The man was like a bug, constantly searching for a meaning to his existence.



Jack knitted his eyebrows when he was interrupted again. It was something that he never enjoyed.

His heart was immediately filled with an intense feeling of anger.

Especially after he turned to Baron and saw his disgusting face.

"Baron!"

"Sir, please mind your behavior! This is not an appropriate place for you to make a scene!"

Celine and a policeman spoke at almost the same time.

Baron turned around and stared at Celine with a dour look.

Celine took a deep breath and stepped towards Baron with a gentle smile on her face. "Baron, let's just
talk about this when we get home, shall we?"

They completely ignored the policeman.

But Baron met Celine's approach with a raised hand and almost pushed her down.

And because Celine was wearing high-heeled shoes, she almost fell because of his push.

The policeman who witnessed what Baron did screamed involuntarily.

Baron reached out his hand to steady her, but she already steadied herself by grasping the wall.

He felt a little guilty from what he did and licked his lower lip involuntarily as Celine stared at him with
sadness in her eyes.

When Jack saw what happened, he just couldn't stand it anymore. He lost his cool, approached Baron,
grabbed him by the collar, and punched him in the face.
