Marriage Of Benefits - Chapter 370

Oliver looked outside anxiously as Rachel drove the car and soon she stopped outside a newly opened book shop. It was the place where a person could rent a room and read in the these specially prepared relaxing rooms, if one required they could book a VIP room just for themselves and have no one else enter that room moreover if you liked a book, you could simply buy it as there were always extra once in the stock. The once that only had a single copy would always be marked ‘Not for sale’s so the costumer would know beforehand.

As she alighted from the car, she looked at the store with a smile on her face. This was the kind of place that brought her peace of mind, to began with she loved to read books and when it came to going to a store like this, it was much better than shopping for her. Oliver looked at her with a displeased look “Are you for real? Who comes to a place like this to relax and didn’t you say that you wanted to go shopping.”

She nodded her head vigorously and said with a smile “We are shopping here, why waste our money on clothes that are already stacked at home, I want to buy something that will be good for me and help me relax when I need.”

Oliver shook his head “I would never have come if you had given me a heads up.”

She chuckled “That’s why you were kept in the dark.”

He shook his head and went in with her reluctantly but he still had a smile on his face as he was able to accompany her. Rachel booked a VIP room and went to select the books she wanted. For her this was the only was she could let herself loose and relax, reading a book of her choice always brought a smile on her face no matter how much she was stressed out. Oliver too selected a book and sat in the seat opposite to her but instead of the book all his attention was on the girl in front of him and he could not help but continuously look at her. She was so engrossed in her reading that she didn’t even notice his gaze or that was what he thought but Rachel was merely reading anything, her mind was in such a mess that even the book was unable to distract her. Now she was simply getting frustrated so after an hour she looked at Oliver and said “You must be bored.”

He gave a pitiful look and nodded his head so she smiled and said “Do you want to go trekking, somewhere near and just for fun.”

His face lit up as he said “Now that sounds like something fun but why don’t you wish to do something more girl like.”

Rachel smiled “Why, isn’t this better, we can do something we both like.”

They went for trekking at the place which would not require much energy or time as they had to return back to have lunch too. Both of them enjoyed their time as laughed and supped one another but the best part was that Rachel’s mood was improved a lot. As they were going to have their lunch Oliver said “It will be your treat for making me go through that morning hour reading a book.”

Rachel laughed “Alright, it’s my treat.”

Oliver looked at her and said in a self righteous tone “Off course it is you are filthy rich and I am going to choose the most expensive restaurant.”

Rachel laughed again “Go ahead, just let me know where I have to drive to.”

“hmm”

After saying that he searched for the most expensive restaurant and took Rachel there. It was well decorated and had a high class to it, Rachel quite liked it and so she went to book a private room but the staff said that all their private rooms were full at this moment.

They didn’t mind it and sat in the front to eat, they were best friends so after the food arrived they casually put stuff on each others plates or put it in each others mouth if something was good. It was not a big deal for them but Rachel had now become a public figure as the most beautiful and cold President. As such a great figure she was a topic discussed by everyone and all of them wanted to know more about her.

Being curious is the nature of human and when it of their interest they will try to scoop news out of everywhere. Now as they were feeding each other casually, they were caught on the camera as a couple. It was sure to become a hot news and sure enough when she reached home, her parents looked at her in shock and Jamie was the first one to ask “What is wrong with you Rachel?”

Rachel looked at her confused “What happened Mom?”

Jamie passed the tablet to Rachel and showed her the news which had the headlines “Breaking the hearts of all the young men, our hottest beauty already taken.”

Rachel looked at her mother in shock “Do you believe this, we were just having lunch, is it so difficult to have lunch with a friend.”

Jamie let out a breath and said “No, it’s fine but you should use private rooms or have your guards clear the area before you eat, you are the topic of interest in the whole world right now, everyone is interested in your affairs so be careful or something might happen.”

Rachel nodded her head “Don’t worry, I will be careful, I am going to have some rest now.”

Jamie nodded and while she was going to her room, she read the comments “My heart can’t take it, she is so beautiful, how can she already be with someone.”

“I didn’t even have my chance”

“This must be a lie, she must be fooling around.”

As she read the comments, she opened the room of her door but before she could step in she was pulled in harshly, the door slammed loudly behind her and she was pinned to the door. She opened her eyes wide and her eyes met with beautiful silver eyes but she could feel the raging anger in them and she was frozen on her spot lost in those eyes.
