Finally, Clark nodded and said, "Okay."
He sent Marvin home, but he was silent in the car downstairs for a long time. Several cigarette butts
were piled up on the ground beside the driver's seat.
In his mind, the faces of Rachel and Anna constantly appeared one after another, and he was not sure
whether the child was his or not. All these had become the focus of his hesitation.
He thought for a while and finally started the car, heading to the gate of the community where Rachel
lived.
Downstairs, Clark took out his phone and dialed the familiar number, but he couldn't get through.
He looked up at her room. The light was still on. She should still be awake?
Suddenly, Clark plucked up his courage and dialed her number.
Rachel was fiddling with her phone when her phone rang. She was scared.
When she saw the number, she was startled and threw the phone away immediately.
Why did he call her now?
Just then, Eva pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that she didn't answer the phone yet, she
couldn't help but glance at it.
"Miss Rachel, why don't you answer Mr. Clark's call? Maybe he has something urgent to tell you," Eva
urged her.
Rachel immediately put the phone in her hand. "Answer it for me. Just tell him that I'm asleep and ask
him what's the matter?"
Eva had no choice but to answer the phone for her. "Sorry, Mr. Clark. Miss Rachel is asleep. What's the
matter?"
Clark looked up at the window of Rachel. The light was still on, and she didn't want to answer his call.
"Nothing." Clark directly hung up the phone and stared at the window.
Stunned, Eva stared at the phone and talked to herself, "Nothing? Why did he call Miss Rachel if he
had nothing to say? That's strange."
"It's very late. Why are you still standing here? It's time to go to bed," said Rachel, urging her to leave.
Eva shook her head with doubt and walked out of the room.
Rachel got out of bed and turned off the light. It was dark in the room.
Clark stubbed out the last cigarette, started the car and drove away.
Lying in bed, Rachel couldn't fall asleep. She thought for a while and took out her cell phone. She
stared at his cell phone number for a long time, debating whether she should call him back.
In the end, she put down her cell phone silently. She had promised not to pay attention to anything
about him and that she would forget him and start all over again. And she must keep her promise.
With determination, Rachel turned off her phone and covered herself with the quilt, ready to sleep.
Soon, the new movie was about to be released.
The movie was popular, and Rachel had become a famous actress. The audience could see her
improvement in her acting skill.
Rachel became more popular than Nancy. Compared to Rachel, Nancy's performance in the play was
much inferior.
The netizens gave Rachel a lot of compliments. She had a huge number of followers. But Nancy's fans
became fewer on the contrary.
Seeing such a result, Nancy was so angry that she slapped the table and stood up. "How dare you,
Rachel! It really ticks me off!"
Teresa immediately persuaded her, "Don't be angry. It's not worth it. It's bad for your health."
"Mom, that bitch is even more popular than me now! I made a bet with her that I would defeat her in the
entertainment circle, but now I... " Nancy was too embarrassed to continue.
Teresa comforted her at once, "Don't worry. We have plenty of time. It's just a movie. She might not be
popular after her next movie. The entertainment circle is changeable. Who knows who will be the next
lucky dog?"
"Mom, I must get rid of her! She is a stumbling block for me. I must get rid of her!" Nancy's eyes blazed
with rage.
Teresa rolled her eyes and tried to comfort Nancy, "Take it easy. I'll think it over for you."
When Rachel heard that her new movie had a good reputation, she wanted to go to the movie theater
to see her movie and felt how audiences feel when they watched her movie, so she booked two tickets
from the movie theater which was close to her home.
In the evening, after dinner, she asked winter to go to see the movie with her.
Eva was called away by a telephone from her company on her way. Thus, Rachel had to go to the
movie theater alone.
She specially bought popcorn and coke to go in. Since she bought the VIP tickets, there were not many
people in the VIP Hall.
This way, she could concentrate on her movie and put her heart on her acting skill.
Finally, the movie was on. With her eyes wide open, Rachel looked at herself on the big screen and felt
a sense of freshness.
The effect of the movie and the scene on the moving site was totally different from that on the screen in
the movie theater.
Until now, Rachel began to realize how important the post production was after the shooting was
completed and that it could almost influence the quality of the whole movie.
Rachel kept thinking about her acting skills. She felt that she had gained a lot from watching the movie.
The music stopped.
Rachel stood up and left the movie hall. At the door, she ran into someone she was very familiar with.
Clark?
Rachel blinked her eyes. She did not believe her eyes.
Clark walked up to her and stopped in front of her.
He stared at her for a long time quietly. Then Clark asked, "How are you doing?"
Trying to suppress her inner throb, Rachel smiled at him and said, "I'm fine. What about you?"
"As long as you're good," Clark finally replied, biting his lip.
For a moment, Rachel didn't know what to say, so she changed the topic, "I heard you are going to get
engaged. When?"
Before he could answer, a pleasant voice came from behind him, "Clark!"
Anna approached them with a comfortable smile and casually held Clark's arm.
"Miss Rachel? What a coincidence! You are here to watch a movie too?" Anna opened her mouth to
greet Rachel.
With a nod, Rachel said, "What a coincidence, Miss Anna."
A gentle smile appeared on Anna's face. She touched her belly unconsciously and said, "Miss Rachel,
I'm so sorry that we have to go home early together. I'm pregnant now, so I have to go to bed early and
get up early. And Clark has to take care of me."
Stunned for a while, Rachel's eyes fell on Anna's belly. Was she pregnant with his child?
It was too fast!
Clark was expressionless, showing no emotion on his face.
Seeing the astonishment on her face, Anna specially reminded her, "Don't tell anyone about this. After
all, the pregnancy has not passed three months. We'd better be careful."
Rachel didn't know whether Anna was flaunting or reminding her that Clark was going to be a father.
She gave them a bitter smile and said to them, "Congratulations! Wish you two a happy life!"
"Thank you." Anna looked around and asked curiously, "Miss Rachel, are you here alone to watch a
movie?"
When Rachel was about to answer, a strong male voice came behind her, "Rachel!"
Turning around, Rachel saw the charming smile on Chester's face.
Chester walked up to them and glanced at the two people standing in front of Rachel. He immediately
understood what happened.
"I've been looking for you for a long time. I thought you went to the washroom. Unexpectedly, you met
acquaintances here."
After that, Chester greeted, "Hi, Mr. Clark, Mrs. Anna. Long time no see!"
It suddenly dawned on Anna. Then she said with a smile, "Miss Rachel has a boyfriend with her. I
thought you came to see the movie alone!"
Clark's face was totally overcast with anger. But Chester ignored it and nodded to Anna, "Miss Anna,
you need Mr. Clark as your company. How could I not be with Rachel?"
