His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1260 See You Tonight



Chapter 1260 See You Tonight

"Mr. Zhao, I believe there is a misunderstanding here. Tarsan Corporation does have some insignificant

problems, but they all are already solved. You don't need to worry about them at all,"

promised Rachel on the phone.

"Ms. Bai, this is not about whether the problems in the company have been solved or not. This really is

all about risk management. What I want you to understand is that the bigger the company is, the bigger

the risk is at stake in every decision. So, I really have to be cautious. After all, my company is indeed

very big. Are you with me on this?" Alan answered.

Rachel gritted her teeth in anger. 'Cunning fox!' she thought.

"Of course, I can understand you, Mr. Zhao. But at the same time, I also hope that you can kindly take

our company into consideration. We are also a reliable big company. Trust me, you won't feel

disappointed," Rachel assured him.

She thought for a while and then added, "I remember Mr. Zhao said to me you wanted to invite me for a

drink, right? I see it that today is the right day. So let's go for a drink tonight. What do you think?"

Rachel couldn't help thinking of his disgusting lustful eyes. But she had to make this decision to save

her company.

"All right! It's great! We will definitely meet by then!" Alan laughed loudly on the other end of the phone.

After Rachel hung up the phone, she slumped in her chair. Fatigue crawled on her.

But there was no time to rest. She got up shortly and continued working. She checked her note and

realized that in a few days there would be a client's birthday party.

Even though this client's company was not very big, it was a stable cooperator. She had to maintain a

good relationship with them. Her hope was simply that the birthday party could bring her more potential

clients.

Her phone rang yet once again. Rachel felt like her brain was going to explode. Boy, how she wanted

to turn off the phone and put all of these bullshits aside!

A long vacation was what she needed the most! She'd like to relax in a beach, along with the rhythmic

and soothing dynamic of the tides, or literally anywhere that could help her get rid of her work for a

while. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She decided to ignore the calls and then took a nap in her office. After she woke up, she checked her

phone. There was a message from Bernard.

He must have some good news for her! She couldn't wait to read the message and call him

immediately.

"It's me. Did you find any clue?"

"Yes. I found out that Miranda has a long-term lover. I investigated into her lover and had some

breakthroughs."

Rachel would literally kill to hear it.

"What is it?" Rachel asked anxiously, so anxious in fact that she unconsciously raised her voice two

pitches higher.

"Her lover has a foreign bank account. Every month there would be a big amount of money transferred

into his account. It turns out that the money she transferred is the result of her laundering Silver

Corporation's property. Worse yet, they have done it all along for quite a long time," Bernard said.

Rachel felt excited as soon as she heard the news.

This was the most exciting thing for her to know in a while.

"As for the evidence, I have collected them already and sent them to your mailbox. You can check them

at your convenience," Bernard continued.

Rachel observed that Miranda and Lance didn't look as intimate as they performed. However, she

didn't expect Miranda to do something so disgraceful.

She couldn't help thinking of Miranda's feigned behavior and the false impression of "a lovely couple"

that she created before. An idea struck her all of a sudden.

"Do you have anything else? Such as the direct evidence of Miranda's involvement in the murder?" she

asked again.

"Not yet. What we know for sure is that she faked the CCTV. I'm sure as long as I dig into this case,

we'll find something."

In fact, Bernard hadn't had a good sleep these past few days in order to help Rachel. He didn't want to

disappoint her, so he stalked and spied on Miranda and her lover nearly 24/7.

He tried not to sound exhausted on the phone, even though he knew that Rachel wouldn't even care

about him the slightest even if she had known about his sacrifice.

"Fine. Keep working on it. I'm waiting for your feedback." Rachel sounded very frustrated and upset.

She did it on purpose.

As she expected, Bernard felt so heartbroken right after he heard her frustrated voice. He truly yearned

to see her happy and radiant face as she had been in the spotlight.

She was his muse. He felt like there was an obligation for him to maintain her pride and well-being,

though she herself probably did not even care about his feeling.

"Yes. I'll try my best!" Bernard promised.

He made up his mind to find out the truth as soon as possible.

At the hospital, Melissa was sent into the emergency room. Charles waited outside and didn't dare to

move a step.

Everything happened too fast, and his mind was also overly occupied by his worry toward Melissa that

he could barely care about other things. Not long after though, he finally had a moment to think the

whole thing through.

He recalled what he saw in the stairs. At first, Melissa and Sheryl were talking with each other. He

couldn't hear them, but they both looked unhappy. They had conflicts very often, so Charles didn't feel

surprised at all.

However, he didn't expect to see Melissa rolling downstairs in front of him.

He was scared by the scene. Melissa was all he cared about at that time because he couldn't stand

seeing her in such a dreadful pain. He was barely able to even mind himself.

He vaguely remembered seeing Sheryl panicking. She opened her mouth, about to say something. But

in the end, no single word was said.

How did Melissa fall down at all? As far as he could see, Sheryl dragged Melissa. Sheryl was standing

on the upper stairs while Melissa stood down to her. She pulled Melissa towards herself with full might

which finally caused Melissa falling.

But was it really the case?

He couldn't believe that Sheryl would act so evil toward Melissa. She was her mother-in-law! How

could she manage to do this? No! No!

It couldn't be Sheryl! It couldn't be her!

Charles kept denying this possibility in his mind.

However, there was a weak voice yelling in his heart, "It was indeed Sheryl who did it! But she didn't do

it on purpose!"

'If this is the truth, I won't blame Sheryl for it, as long as she admits her fault. She didn't do it on

purpose, I know!' said Charles in his mind.

Charles stopped thinking randomly. Melissa was still in the emergency room. He stared at the door. As

of that time, he could not do anything but to wait! He would know the truth after Melissa woke up, at

least that was what he thought..

As Charles was waiting, the door of another emergency room opened all of a sudden.

He looked at it. A few doctors and nursers wheeled a gurney through the door.

"Mr. Lu, good to see you here." One of the doctors recognized him. He strode towards him and said,

"This patient is called Leila Zhang. She had food poisoning earlier today. We have saved her after two-

hour operation. Had she been sent to the hospital a little bit later, we wouldn't have been able to do

anything. The problem is, your wife sent her to the hospital today, but she is not here now, and we need

to discuss, you know, the cost."

"I see. I will pay her medical fee. Could you please get her a nursing assistant to take care of her?"

asked Charles.

"Very well. She is on the right hand. No need to worry," said the doctor. They had been worrying about

the cost since Leila was left alone in the hospital. However they were really glad that Charles was

willing to take the responsibility.

The operation had been over, but Leila was still too weak to wake up.

The nurses wheeled the gurney into the patient room. Charles withdrew his gaze.

At that time, he felt there was something unsettling about Leila's "food poisoning" case. There was

something not right. According to what Melissa told him through the phone, Sheryl put poison in Leila's

tea to kill her.

Sheryl seemed to have the right motive as well as the right reason to do so, but he knew Sheryl well

enough that he didn't believe she would dare to do that.

Sheryl was an extremely kind woman. Leila had tried taken Clark away from her, which of course was

intolerable for any mother, but Sheryl agreed to bring her to justice instead of retaliating with her. How

could she do such an act after Leila was set free from prison?

Charles thought that it might be a trick by Leila to have herself tortured so that she could fool Melissa

and Sheryl, and set Sheryl up. Was it even possible?
