Marriage Of Benefits - Chapter 353
Rachel narrowed her eyes as she saw him coming towards her with a weird smile, she immediately stood up and looked at his extended hand for her to shake. She raised her eyebrow and shook his hand as she asked “I don’t think we have met before.”
He smiled “Sure we have.”
Rachel was shocked thinking if he had already found out that she was the queen, her heart felt a little uneasy but she didn’t let the expression come to her face as she smiled and denied it “If that is true, would you like reminding me when because I meet a lot of people on daily basis and mostly forget the unimportant people.”
He laughed “Miss Cullen is sure funny but I think you will know me better if I introduced myself.”
Rachel narrowed her eyes thinking wasn’t he a bit too much but then she raised her eyebrow as if asking him to continue speaking. He smiled and came closer to her, she stepped back and said a little irritated “You can introduce yourself even if you are standing away from me.”
He let out another chuckle and closed the distance between them “I think this will be the best way for me to introduce myself.”
Rachel could not take it anymore and from what she knew, who he was, she had the urge to beat him up since she had seen him enter and now that he was acting indecently, she had the reason to him so without thinking anything, she lifted her leg and aimed it for her groin but his reflexes were quick and he caught hold of her knee that was just about to touch him.
She gritted her teeth as he said “If you hit me like this, it might not be good for our children, we may face a difficulty.”
The expression on her face turned sour as she looked at him “We have just met and you want to have children with me.”
He smiled and bent down to whisper in her ear “I have not been able to stop myself of thinking about it since I saw you for the first time.”
Rachel blood boiled in her veins as she had never seen a shameless man like him so she pushed him away with a lot of strength and said pretending as if she didn’t know “Who the hell are you and what are you doing at my friend’s place?”
As he stumbled backwards by the push Rachel had given her, he was shocked. He really wanted to know more about this person as she actually had the strength to push him away but her anger only made him tease her more.
He smiled at her “This is my house so I should be asking you, are you really Jessica’s friend that you don’t even know about me.”
Rachel was annoyed by talking to this man and decided to ignore him “Well I don’t care who you are, I am here for Jessica and I will leave after meeting her.”
He sensed that she was now pushing him away so he said “She in my half sister and I am Robert, I hope you remember.”
She looked at him with her eyes wide open Robert, the person creating problems for her company, who came to dance with her was the leader of the evil witches. What was more shocking that he was Jessica’s brother and she never told her that her brother was going to do any such thing, she felt betrayed but Robert soon continued speaking “You don’t need to blame it on her as she had no idea what I was doing moreover, she was always with you fighting against me giving you tips after talking to me.”
Robert was still not ready to leave her alone and sat next to her “You are really beautiful.”
Rachel looked at him and said bluntly “I know but that doesn’t give you the right to sit here and have a conversation with me.”
He smiled “You are right but you can’t stop me from looking at you.”
Rachel rolled her eyes “You are truly shameless.” She then thought it was not his fault after all when he was an evil creature.
He didn’t take it to heart and simply replied “That is true.”
Rachel had a look of disbelief in her eyes as she saw him shamelessly admit that he was indeed shameless. What more could she say now so she simply said “Alright whatever, stop bothering me. I am not a very good person and if I get irritated, it won’t be good.”
He smiled “I like it, the way you are.”
Rachel could not take it anymore and simply got up from there. As she was about to leave, she head Jessica’s voice “Robert stop pestering her, she is not one of your toys to mess with. She in my friend.”
Robert smiled and looked at Rachel with longing in his eyes as he spoke “I never saw her as a toy and I am really serious about her.”
Rachel was tired of all the cheesiness and said “Shut up”
She then went to Jessica and said “I have something to talk to you, let’s go to your room or this person will keep pestering us.”
Jessica nodded as she noticed how irritating Robert was behaving.
As they entered her room Rachel locked the door but she doubted that he won’t enter through a locked door, if he wished. She rolled her eyes and then turned to Jessica “You didn’t tell me that he was our opponent.”
Rachel looked down “I thought you would think of me as a traitor but I really didn’t know what he was upto.”
Rachel smiled and hugged her “Jess, I trust you and I came here because of what happened today.”
Jessica smiled as she spoke “Don’t worry, I know you have your responsibilities.”
Rachel said “I know it is because you are related that you have to be with him but if anyone there were to find out about this, they would create trouble. At your position everyone would want to do that to you but now no one will try to find out your relationship and you can live freely. I will handle you your positions when I make sure that both of you are safe.”
Jessica smiled “Thanks, you are really thoughtful and the best person I have ever met.”
Rachel smiled and asked “So you are not angry.”
She shook her head “Not at all.”
Rachel nodded “Alright then, we will go shopping tomorrow, I need some break.”
Jessica nodded “Yes we will.”
As Rachel went out Jessica followed her and before sitting in her car she said “Take care.”
Jessica nodded “I will, you should rest well, it had not been easy on you.”
Rachel nodded and before going back home she headed to her company to check everything. She was feeling anxious as she had only one person with her that she trusted completely, she needed more of them because Jessica too could not be here all the time. She had to find someone who she could trust and let them handle the important matters.
As she entered the company, she headed straight for her office, the security that was present there bowed their heads in respect as entered her office.
She was about to turn on the lights when she heard the sound of someone breathing inside the room, she was sure that someone was here to steal something. She was scared at the thought that someone would enter this unapproachable place to steal, she let out a cold smile thinking that this was going to be fun.
She did not turn on the light and follow the sound of the breathing. All her senses were very sharp but when it came to hearing, if she were to concentrate, she could hear a lot of things ever at a very long radius but to adjust to normal life, she had to cut those noises out to stay peaceful and right now, she followed the sound and finally saw a silhouette of a person behind her desk.
She went to stand behind her with light footsteps and not making any sound. As she approached, young female’s back that was trembling with fears, she heard closely and heard the sound of light sobbing and with this Rachel knew that this person was sent by someone to steal something and she was being threatened but still she had to deal with it the right way “When you were not scared of sneaking in here then why are you now.”
The girl trembled and immediately got up scared and her sobs became louder as she said “I am really sorry, I didn’t want to do this.”
Rachel looked at the face and exclaimed “Jess!”
