Chapter 393
Rachel looked at the beautiful face in front of her.
His dark and thick eyebrows were perfectly shaped and his dark eyes were looking right into hers, smiling. It was
charming and enchanting, nothing like the coldness in his eyes.
Rachel’s heart finally skipped a beat.
Did she have the potential to develop Stockholm Syndrome or something?
”
Otherwise, why would she not panic when she heard David’s alarming statement and even got a little excited?
The phone suddenly rang and broke this unusual atmosphere.
Rachel was stunned for a moment and hurriedly took her phone out of her purse. “Hello?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe picked up the phone hastily and didn’t check the caller ID.
“It’s me.” Louis’s voice pierced through the phone.
Rachel became gloomier. Just as she was about to hang up the phone, she heard Louis speak again, “Rachel, don’t
hang up on me! I really have something important to tell you.”
“Oh?”
“I know you hate my guts. You can take revenge on me however you like, but… could you show some sympathy? At
least don’t do any harm to Smith Group.” Louis’s low and hoarse voice was tainted with helplessness.
Rachel sneered, not even trying to hide how she felt, “Why are you being so certain that I was the one who wants
to destroy Smith Group?!”
“Aren’t you?” Louis said, “when Olivia came back, she told me everything. She told me that you’re not only
targeting her and me, but you’re also targeting Smith Group.”
Rachel laughed frigidly without even hiding it.
She leaned idly against the car window with sarcasm in her eyes as she tapped her forehead gently with her
fingers. Then she said slowly, “Louis, do you really have a brain?”
Hearing her sarcastic tone, Louis frowned and his handsome face grew grimmer.
“You asked Olivia to help you get the investment through Mrs. Zane, but do you have any idea what this orphanage
means to Mrs. Zane?” Hearing the silence on the other side of the line, Rachel somehow became patient and
simply answered the questions in Louis’s heart.
“This orphanage once helped Mrs. Zane a lot, so Mrs. Zane valued this orphanage very much. She even treats the
children in the orphanage as her own. But Olivia scorned the children without any explanation and she actually said
things to them like ‘You stole something but you don’t even admit it. That is why your parents abandoned you. You
really had it coming. What makes you think that Mrs. Zane has a good impression of her? What makes you think
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat Mrs. Zane will help Smith Group get an investment?”
“If you still think that I’m the one who caused Smith Group to lose this investment, then you’re wrong. Olivia is the
one who is so stupid that she doesn’t even know she is dumb. She has made a bad impression on Mrs. Zane. You
two only have yourselves to blame!”
Louis frowned and clenched his fists. “Even so, what good will it do you if Smith Group loses this investment?”
“There are many benefits! Giving you trouble is one of them!”
After saying that, she didn’t want to waste her time on him anymore and just hung up the phone on Louis.
When David heard the last thing she just said, he couldn’t help but smile.
He thought that Rachel would always stay rational and clear–headed. He did not expect her to have such a childish
side.
On the other end of the line, Louis’s face gradually turned cold when he heard the beeping sound.
He irritatedly took a cigarette out of the pack, lit it, and took a sniff.
The white smoke rose up and covered his gloomy face.
At this moment, Olivia wrapped her arms around Louis’s waist from behind and sobbed quietly, “Louis, I’m sorry.
It’s all my fault.”
