《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 323 - The Boss (3)
Advertisement
Jessica trembled at seeing the person and then before the person could notice them she said "Let's go back, it's too late and I am tired so I want to go go to sleep."
Rachel looked at her for a moment before her gaze returned to that man, she tried thinking hard and then her head began to hurt again. Jessica panicked and spoke again "What are you waiting for, let's go."
She looked at Jessica and the next moment she fainted, they were close to their home so Jessica carried Rachel in her arms and with a flap of her wings she flew away to her room. The best part of their flying was that they could turn invisible while flying and no one could see them. After she helped Rachel into the bed she went to Jamie and told her what happened. Jamie's eyes widened "What is he doing here, they can't see each other for a month and he has nothing to do here."
Jessica looked at her, panic written all over her face "I know! What should we do now? Should I erase the memory of what happened tonight?"
Jamie gave it a thought then she said "You have to and now you have to be very careful around her and not let them see each other for a month, it won't be good."
Jessica nodded "You take care of her and I will go talk to him."
Jamie went into Rachel's room and said "Hurry up or he might come here."
Jessica quickly altered Rachel's memory and went away to land in front of the stranger seeing whom Rachel had fainted, she said angrily "What are you doing here, I told you not to come out without asking me."
The man looked at her and said "You didn't come for a long time and I sensed that you would be somewhere here so I came."
Jessica placed her hand on her forehead and took in a deep breath "Alright then, now that you are here take me back, I am done with my work."
He smiled and wrapping his arm around her, he flew away. Jessica relaxed a bit as she reached home then she went into Robert's room and sat on his bed in a dazed state thinking about everything that had happened in this room between Rachel and him and how their love had began in this room. A tear fell down from her eye as she said "It breaks me when I see her so heartbroken, tell me what should I do. She has become the most powerful person but emotionally she is broken, she can't get you out of her mind no matter what."

She then got up to go to her room and took out the ring that Robert had given to Rachel "I can't wait to give this back to you but the thought that I can't give it to you is wrecking my soul. I am running out of patience knowing that I have to deal this situation with patience."
The man entered her room and seeing her holding the ring, he asked "What is that you are holding?"
Jessica quickly hid the ring and looked at him angrily, she then handed him a phone "Next time you are not allowed to leave without my permission, I can't let you go out when you are still healing so please don't go out for a month. I bought a new phone for you just call me if you want to look for me and if you want to go out you have to tell me."
He smiled and nodded his head "Alright, I will let you know and I am sorry for making you worried."
Jessica shed a few tears "I am sorry for being rude but I can't loose you again so promise me that you will stay at home for at least a month until you heal yourself."
He nodded his head with a smile and rubbed her hair "Now go to sleep, I promise I will stay here."
Jessica smiled and went to her bed to lie down and sleep and the next morning she got up early to get back to Rachel before she woke up. Thankfully she reached in time and as she reached Rachel opened her eyes and said "You awake already, good morning."
Jessica smiled and said "Good morning, get up quickly you have a meeting and then you have to interviews to attend."
Rachel stretched lazily "Yeah, I have work."
Jessica laughed and pulled her up "Quickly get dressed, the meeting you wanted to be held in the afternoon was shifted to this morning because the client could come at this time only and the workers that made a loss over this project have already resigned and are ready to pay the loss."
Rachel stood up with a smile "They could stay till evening was a great thing."
Jessica looked at her "Do you really have ask them to pay when you are going to do this on your own and I would like to say that I really appreciate you to have arranged everything earlier. By the way why is this so important to change the price now that they are paying the loss."

Rachel went to her cupboard to take out her clothes as she spoke "They are paying for their carelessness and I have to increase the price because I if our products are sold at low price it's market value will decrease too and eventually we will face an even bigger loss because later we can't just make expensive items or people will say that we are just charging them uselessly. The last thing is that I can't loose this order because it is Oliver's company and collaborating with then will help us a lot."
Jessica looked at her appreciating her knowledge "You are really going to go to the top with that kind of thinking but if it is his company why don't you go talk to him straight."
"I don't want to use my friendship for wrong reasons and I want to do it the right way. Moreover it's his dad who runs the company he has not taken charge yet and his dad doesn't trust him."
Rachel went into the washroom to take a shower while Jessica appreciated everything about her and then a grief spread over her face thinking about last night. She took in a deep breath and put on a smile "Rach, I am waiting downstairs be quick."
"Yeah, I will be there."
After they were done with everything they reached the company in time and went to the meeting room. Rachel set everything up for the meeting and turned to Jessica "Bring them here and get some snacks and coffee ready for them."
Jessica nodded and went out to arrange for coffee and snacks and when she heard that the client was here, she went there to welcome them and take them to the meeting room but when she saw who it was a wide smile spread across her face "It's you, she is going to be thrilled."
Oliver smiled at her and she took her to the meeting room while someone brought the snacks and the coffee to the room. Rachel looked up when she saw someone enter the door and a smile spread across her face "Oliver! I never expected you to be here."
Oliver smiled and went ahead to hug her and when he was done he said with a huge smile "I told Dad that I wanted to help him with the company so he let me do a few things."
Rachel smiled "That's great and now that you are here, let's began with the meeting."
Oliver nodded and Rachel started speaking "Now as you know Mr. Oliver that my workers made a mistake in the pricing so I want to raise the price of my product. Now if we sell this product at a low price it's market value will decrease and eventually both our companies will face a huge loss. Now that we have to collaborate let's discuss it properly."
She then began to explain everything properly about her product and what she wanted while she realized that Oliver was continuously staring at her. She felt like he was not listening to her but just staring at her but she didn't loose her cool and continued with a smile. She told herself that maybe she was thinking too much because of her confession.
After she was done Oliver said "You make a very good point but I have a condition that you will have to fulfill Miss. Rachel."
Rachel looked at him and she was sure it was not going to be something decent but she took in a deep breath and said "What is the condition?"
Oliver smirked "Rach, what if I say that I will agree to this only if you become my girlfriend."
Rachel looked at him shocked and then with a smile she said "You can't be so unreasonable."
He smirked again and with a devilish smile he said "What if I am, what will you do?"
