My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 449

"Talk? What else do you want to talk about?" Scarlett's eyes became more ferocious. She was already panting in rage. "Do you know what my parents did to me? They forced me to be with Jack so they could pay their debts. But now that Jack has abandoned me because of you, no one would give me money anymore. My father started to hit me since I couldn't give them money any longer. Look at these bruises when he hit me last night."

She rolled up her sleeves and showed Rachel the red marks that were still swollen.

Rachel was slightly taken aback. It never occurred to her that Scarlett was experiencing such a thing. But for the time being, she had no time to sympathize with Scarlett.

She said slowly, "If it's all about money, we can easily solve it. Let me go, and I'll write a check for you. You can then take it to your father so he can pay all his debts."

But what she said didn't bring any good at all. Scarlett suddenly yelled, "Are you trying to show off your wealth in front of me? I don't want your money. It's nothing compared to being with Jack. He is the CEO of MK Group. If I become his wife, I can be wealthier than you. But that will only happen if I get rid of your baby." Scarlett might have totally lost her mind.

Rachel didn't expect that she couldn't lure her. Scarlett was so determined to get rid of her baby.

Jack stepped on the accelerator and drove as fast as he could. But as soon as he reached a viaduct, he was blocked. He had no other way since he was in the middle of a traffic jam.

Rachel was still on the phone. Every time he heard her intermittent voice, the veins on his temples throbbed. Seeing that the flow of the traffic in front of him remained still, his anxiety reached its highest level. He suddenly pressed the steering wheel, and the horn let out a very long sound.

At this time, he clearly heard Rachel's voice. Perhaps she was too scared now because her tone changed. "Scarlett, please calm down. I will promise you anything except for the baby in my belly. Please sit down and have a good talk with me."

Jack felt like his heart was gripped tightly. Now that he was trapped here, he started to panic.

There was not much time left. Anything could happen to Rachel and his child in the hands of Scarlett.

Left with no choice, he pushed the car door open and ran as fast as he could.

Scarlett kept on pulling Rachel out of the office. When they reached the door, Rachel grasped the door frame tightly so Scarlett wouldn't be able to drag her more. She wanted to scream, but she knew that no one would hear her. Unfortunately, all of her colleagues had gone out for a meeting today, and she was left alone.

She had thought that she would enjoy more leisure time today. She didn't expect that Scarlett would come unannounced to kill the baby in her belly.

Scarlett gritted her teeth as she tried harder to pull Rachel out. But since Rachel grasped the door frame more tightly, she slipped and fell back uncontrollably.

She fell on the floor so hard, pulling Rachel down.

Jack rushed over just in time to see Rachel fall heavily to the floor.

Her face suddenly turned pale, and beads of cold sweat flowed down from her forehead. Her face was wet with mixed sweat and tears. Jack was stunned for a moment. He only came back to his senses when he heard a painful groan from her. He crouched to hold her up, but when he reached out his hand, he felt something wet.

When he looked at his hand, it was full of blood. He looked down and found that a lot of blood was already oozing from between Rachel's legs. She covered her belly tightly and said in a weak panicky voice, "Jack, my baby." "Don't move. I'll take you to the emergency room right away." Jack picked her up and rushed to the elevator.

Scarlett, who fainted when she fell hard on the floor, regained her consciousness. Still in a trance, she saw that Jack was about to leave with Rachel in his arms. She was so anxious that she stretched out her hands and held his leg. "Jack, don't go."

Jack looked back at her with a murderous look. He raised his other foot, gave her a heavy kick, and snapped, "I'll deal with you later!"

When he reached the emergency room, Jack looked at the busy staff. At this time, he seemed to have lost all his calmness and sanity already. He roared loudly, "Doctor, I need help! Save my wife and my child!"

Jack waited outside the emergency room while the doctor was checking on Rachel. The waiting time had been extremely long.

Rachel slowly opened her eyes, and subconsciously touched her belly. When she felt that it was still bulgy, she heaved a sigh of relief. Her baby was still there.

She was talking to her baby while gently rubbing her belly when the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Scarlett appeared.

Scarlett was wearing the most ferocious face while pointing an index finger at her. She walked to the bedside and said fiercely, "You survived the first time. But now, I will never let you go that easy. You and your baby must die!"

She reached out her hands and strangled Rachel's neck with all her might. "I've just realized, even if your baby dies, Jack will still stay with you. The only way for him to go back to me is to kill you too."

Rachel choked. She felt like her lungs didn't have any air anymore. She wanted to remove Scarlett's hands on her neck, but she lost all her strength to do so.

At this moment, she wondered if she and her baby could still see the world.
