Chapter 1177 I Will Not Spare You
Charles frowned and wondered how Rachel turned into such a crafty and evil woman. When they were
still together back then, she was completely different. She was a sensible, kind girl in his eyes. Now,
however, he wondered if she was just a fake before, and that this was really her true nature. He had a
bad expression of her.
There was nothing left inside of Charles but hatred for Rachel.
"Hello, Mr. Lu. What's the occasion? Why did you want to see me in such a hurry?" Rachel asked in a
sweet voice. His call didn't surprise her. Judging by the anger in his voice, she guessed that Charles
and Sheryl had a big fight, and that he wanted to talk about it with her. This thought overjoyed Rachel
that she answered the call immediately.
She even started to imagine the happy life that she and Charles would have after he and Sheryl got
divorced.
However, Rachel's playful coy and flirtation only enraged him more. "Let me make myself clear. I do not
want to see you, but I have no choice at the very moment, so get your ass over here right away!" he
demanded brashly without even considering her feelings.
Still in a flirting and sweet tone, Rachel replied, "Fine. Since you invite me, then I will be there. Please,
tell me where you are, so I can be on my way." Even though Charles had yelled and insulted her, she
still wasn't fazed or even mad about it. Her mood was just too good to be overcome.
Since Charles had no intention of going anywhere else, he told her to come to the cafe and ended the
call without waiting for her response.
Charles heaved a furious breath before drinking the coffee in one gulp. The anger had overwhelmed Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
him, making him yell at the waitress for another refill.
His attitude broke the tranquil and warm atmosphere of the cafe. It also drew the attention of most
guests. When they turned to look at his direction, they were surprised and miffed to found out where
the raging noise came from. At that moment, Charles became aware of his rude behavior, but he was
still fuming, rendering him having no mood to apologize.
As the other people in the cafe landed their eyes on Charles, they immediately withdrew their curious
glances and started to whisper and talk to their companies as if nothing happened.
They all had one thing in mind, and that was that they couldn't afford and dare to mess with Charles.
Once they showed how annoyed and scornful they were to his rude behavior, they might just get
themselves into more trouble. This man was powerful, wealthy, and influential enough to be able to
change their fates and play god after all.
No one in the cafe had the guts to get on such a bigshot's bad side, not to mention that the stone-cold
president was in a really bad mood. So they ignored him as if he wasn't a bother at all.
Upon hearing Charles' order, the waitress got a cup of coffee immediately, and wasted no time as she
made her way to deliver the refill to the irritated man. She carefully placed the cup in front of him with
respect and fear of making a wrong move. As the man had no other request, she scampered off with
the empty cup and felt like she could finally breathe.
Meanwhile, after Charles had hung up the phone, Rachel immediately called Holley in the intercom.
"See me at my office right now," she instructed.
Since Holley worked in the company as well, it was convenient for Rachel to contact her.
"Right away," Holley replied as she sensed the urgency in Rachel's voice. She rushed out of her office,
leaving her unfinished work behind, and left for Rachel's.
Rachel's secretary opened the door for her, and as soon as the door closed behind her, Holley asked,
"What's up?"
Smiling from ear to ear, Rachel was beaming when Holley found her. "I have some good news to share
with you."
Holley walked closer and sat on the chair in front of Rachel. "What is it?" she asked, pretending to look
curious. She guessed that the good news had something to do with Charles or his wife for it was the
only thing they were working hard for.
Rachel looked at Holley and knew that she should fill her in as well for they were a team. She gushed,
"I got a call from Charles, and he sounded very upset. I'm pretty sure that Sheryl must have snapped at
him for what she had seen that night. That's most probably why he is so angry."
Holley furrowed her eyebrows slightly. "Charles called up you just because he wanted to tell you that he
was upset? Is that all?" she asked in doubt. 'If Charles is really mad at someone, he will not just make
a call to vent out his anger. There must be more that he had said to her, ' Holley thought.
"Of course not. He said he wanted to see me right now. He didn't tell me why, but I guess he will teach
me a lesson. Anyway, I think I should go see him. What do you think?" she asked with a frown on her
face as she considered her options. Then again, for Rachel, she didn't care what he was going to do to
her. She wanted to see his face again, and no matter what Holley voiced out, she would still go.
"Well, of course, you should go, Ms. Bai. This way, you can spend more time with him, and he might
remember his feelings for you. Besides, he won't lay a hand on you for you are a woman," Holley
replied. She then gave her boss a meaningful smile before she added, "Since he won't lay a finger on
you, you can do anything you want."
Rachel misinterpreted her words, making her feel frustrated. She heaved a sigh, and in a disappointed
tone, she said, "I don't think I can manage to seduce Charles. Well, you know him, he will not..."
She had assumed that Holley was suggesting that she should seduce Charles and have an intimate
sex with him.
Holley immediately reminded, "Ms. Bai, it doesn't matter whether or not you can sleep with him. You
just need to convince Sheryl that her husband fools around with you." Standing up, Holley straigtened
her clothes and said decisively, "Let's go, Ms. Bai. You will do all the acting, and I will take care of the
pictures. We can make a good team to make Sheryl suffer."
"Great idea. Even if Charles scolds me, I will still meet him," Rachel replied with a hearty laugh.
She imagined how heartbroken Sheryl would look once she handed the pictures of her and Charles'
intimate behaviors to her. She was satisfied and happy by the thought.
"We should really get going, Ms. Bai. Oh, wait. I forgot. I should disguise myself first. Otherwise,
Charles will recognize me when I enter the scene. I won't be able to do my part if he does," Holley said.
Rachel nodded, "Right." Before they headed for the coffee shop, both of them stopped by at a store
where Holley bought sunglasses that covered half of her face and a black baseball cap. After that, they
went straitght to their rendezvous. Rachel went in first.
As soon as she entered the cafe, she looked around and spotted Charles, sitting alone at a table by the
window. A sly smile slowly appeared on her face as she went straight to him. "I apologize for being late,
Mr. Lu. I was stuck in traffic. I hope I haven't kept you waiting for so long," Rachel said as she took a
seat next to Charles.
Charles had been here ever since Isla had left, so he had been waiting long. He ignored this thought as
the anger filled up inside him once again after seeing and hearing Rachel. In a harsh voice, he shot
back, "I asked you here, because I wanted to ask you something. No need to explain what took you so
long."
Rachel pouted and with a pitiful look, she explained, "What's wrong, Mr. Lu? I just wanted to express
my guilt for keeping you waiting." As she said this, she stretched her hand and attempted to reach for
his.
Charles looked at her as her eyes flashed with sincerity and regret, while her voice carried sincerity and
earnestness. Then again, Charles wasn't easy to fool, and this act enraged him more. Because of the
frustration inside of him, he didn't realized that Rachel was already aiming to touch his hand. As soon
as her hand landed on his, Holley immediately took a picture.
"What are you doing?" Charles shouted at her as he angrily withdrew his hand. He looked at her with
intimidation, and if looks could kill, Rachel would have been dead on the spot. Charles hated being
touched, especially by this vile woman. Charles' nose started to flare as he threatened, "Rachel, I am
warning you. You better stay away from Sheryl from now on, because once I find out that you said
anything or did anything to her just to ruin our relationship, I am warning you, Rachel, I will not spare
you."
