Chapter 802
After chatting for a while on the rooftop, they had no choice but to leave.
Chris looked at Rachel who had returned from outside and secretly sized up the expression on Rachel’s face. While Rachel was taking a shower, Chris thoughtfully prepared breakfast.
When Rachel came out of the bathroom, she sat on the dining chair and ate as usual.
Chris stood not far away. After hesitating for a while, she said carefully. “Miss Grey, are you alright?”
After Chris left with Linda last night, no matter how Chris thought about it, she felt that something was wrong. However, Linda kept pestering Chris, making Chris unable to leave.
It was not until Billy called to say that Rachel had returned to Seaxas that Chris realized that she had been tricked. But even if Chris knew, there was nothing she could do.
After all, Rachel had already gone back. Strictly speaking. Chris could only blame herself for not doing her job well. According to Billy, when Rachel went back last night, she did not have a good time with David. It could even be said that both sides suffered.
Billy repeatedly reminded Chris to ensure Rachel’s safety.
Chris had thought that Rachel would cry. Chris had thought that Rachel would lock herself in her room for the entire day. However, Chris had not expected Rachel to act as if nothing had happened.
Although Chris had never been in love, she knew that among all things in the world, love was the most hurtful.
Chris was really worried that Rachel would hold all the grievances in her heart and fall ill, so Chris had no choice but to ask. Hearing Chris’s words, Rachel looked up at her. “Do I look like I’m wrong?”
Rachel did not feel good after arguing with David last night.
However, Rachel personally felt that the matter between David and her could be solved privately. There was no need for everyone to know about it and cause everyone to not be at peace.
Relationships and work were two different things. It was the best way to deal with them. apart.
Chris was slightly stunned. She pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “Miss Grey, Mr. Jones asked me to tell you that he was injured because he had no choice but to beat the enemy at their own game. Now that his fever has subsided, everything is normal. Please don’t worry.”
Rachel snorted without hiding anything. There was a thin layer of coldness in her eyes. “Couldn’t he say it personally? Why did he ask you to tell me?”
Chris was stunned for a moment.
Chris knew that Rachel was in a fit of anger now. No matter what David did, it would be wrong.
David hadn’t called since yesterday. He hadn’t even apologized.
Rachel assumed that David was recuperating from his serious injuries and was reflecting on where he had gone wrong. But now, David had Chris tell Rachel such simple words.
What was this?
A belated realization or an insincere reflection?
David clearly had so many opportunities to explain to Rachel last night, but he refused to say anything. Now that Rachel knew the reason, it was a pity that David had become a “mute” and needed someoneConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
to pass on the words.
Looking at the breakfast in front of her, Rachel suddenly lost her appetite and stood up to leave.
Chris watched Rachel leave and sighed helplessly. She hurriedly took out her phone and sent a message to Eddie. [Your method doesn’t work. Miss Grey seems to be even angrier. She didn’t even eat breakfast.]
Eddie looked puzzled when he saw the message. [How is that possible? You must have conveyed the message wrongly.] Chris couldn’t help but roll her eyes. [Do it yourself!|
Seeing that Chris got angry, Eddie quickly apologized. (No. It’s my fault. I’m sorry. Think about it. Now that Miss Grey is throwing a tantrum with Mr. Jones, we, the subordinates, will suffer as well. The only solution is to quickly make Miss Grey happy. If Miss Grey is happy. Mr. Jones will be happy. If Mr. Jones is happy, our days as subordinates will be better. Don’t you think?]
Looking at the long speech on the phone, Chris couldn’t help but sigh deeply. She muttered in a low voice. “I’m just bodyguard. Why shall I need to deal with these troublesome things?”
The content of today’s summit was mainly for companies to explain their results and cases.
The order of this case analysis was based on the rule of lot drawing
Perhaps it was because the Johnson Corporation was too unlucky, and Haley drew the last one.
However, as participants in the meeting, they were not allowed to leave the venue without permission. They could only sit in their seats and listen silently like the audience.
After Rachel sat for an entire day, her back stiffened slightly.
After the meeting ended, Rachel stood up and stretched her shoulders before walking out of the meeting room.
Rachel had just walked down the steps when her phone suddenly rang. When she saw the contents of the message, she raised her eyebrows slightly and looked up at the others “You guys go back first I have something to do and will go out for a
while.”
As she spoke, Rachel turned around with her phone and walked toward a car.
Chris did not know what was on the phone, but she noticed that the moment Rachel saw the message, there was a hint of liveliness in her e
reyes.
Rachel was still angry with David now. It couldn’t be a message from David.
If it wasn’t David, could it be another man?
Thinking of this, Chris felt a sense of danger. She quickly followed Rachel “Miss Grey, I’ll go with you.”
“There’s no need” Rachel turned around and glanced at Chris who had followed her. Rachel’s cold eyes were filled with warning “I have something to deal with. They might be going out to play tonight. You’re in charge of looking after them in case anything happens.”
Anyone could tell that this lame excuse was clearly to deliberately send Chris away.
Chris looked a little embarrassed. “Miss Grey, my duty is to protect you…”
“You know your duty is to protect me.” Rachel’s expression turned slightly cold. “I hope you can differentiate between protection and surveillance Moreover, I have the right to protect my privacy. I don’t want outsiders to know.”
Upon hearing this, Chris held her breath.
The outsiders were not only referring to Chris but also to David.
An angry woman was indeed heartless.
Rachel looked at Chris deeply. After confirming that Chris had no intention of tailing her. Rachel turned around and left.
Rachel crossed the road and went straight to a black Land Rover parked on the road.
Chris did not dare to hesitate. She left the team and walked to a corner to call David.
David received a call from Chris. The doctor was treating his wound.
David was originally fine, but for some reason, the temperature in the ward suddenly dropped. The air seemed to have frozen into a layer of fine ice, making one shudder.
Standing at the door, Eddie and Billy naturally sensed this subtle and extreme change. The two of them looked at each other and sighed faintly.
It was obvious that it was most likely related to Rachel.
After all, the only person in the world who could make David’s expression change in an instant was Rachel.
After David hung up the phone, his jawline was tense, and his eyes were filled with a world-destroying hostility.
David gripped his phone tightly, his knuckles turning pale as he tried his best to suppress the anger swirling in his heart.
Rachel said she had the right to protect her privacy and didn’t want outsiders to know.
In Rachel’s eyes, David was already an outsider.
Outsiders?
David’s heart felt like it was being pulled tightly by something. Every breath he took was heart- wrenching.
