《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 326 - Leave the country
Advertisement
Oliver who stood behind her was worried, he stepped forward and held her by her shoulders "Are you okay?"
She cried out louder and then her held her head with her hands "Ah! My head hurts."
More images flashed in her mind but she could not see the person in them clearly, she gripped Oliver's hand tightly "Take me home."
Her grip was so tight that Oliver could feel the pain in his hand, he hugged her closer to his chest and said "Alright, let's go."
He then looked at Liam "Let me have this painting please."
Liam shook his head "I can't give this to you but I can give it to the person who is in it."
Oliver nodded "Please do that, send it to my place."
Liam agreed and then he went to meet other people. Rachel was in a mess, she was unable to process her thoughts and she was walking with the support of Oliver. When she was not able to get her thoughts together and she could not take it anymore, her headache took over and her body fell limp in Oliver's arms as soon as they stepped out of the hall.
He got even more worried and picked her up in his arms and quickly made his way to the car. Making her sit comfortably in the seat he called Jessica and told her everything. Her voice turned worried "That was the painting Robert drew for her and was going to gift her on her birthday. He hid that in the lawn, it must have been thrown out by the maid when she was cleaning."
Oliver was still worried "Now I get it, how this reached Liam but what should I do now."
Jessica had a frown on her forehead "Bring her home."
Oliver agreed and took her back while Jessica went to tell everything to Jamie. Jamie panicked "This is not good, if this keeps on happening something bad is surely going to happen."
Jessica nodded her head and they waited for Rachel impatiently. Oliver carried her in his arms and took her to her room "Will she be fine."
Jamie smiled "Yes she will be fine, you should leave, it is getting late now."
Oliver was reluctant to leave but as Jamie kept insisting he had to leave at last. Jessica looked at Jamie and when the latter nodded her head, she sat next to Rachel and placed her hand on Rachel's forehead but before she could use the spell to erase her memory again, Rachel was awake and held her wrist "What are you trying to do?"

Her tone was sharp and enough to scare them both, her gaze piercing through Jessica who didn't know how to respond and looked at Jamie terrified.
Jamie was cleaver enough to come up with a reply "She was checking your temperature and seeing if you are fine."
Rachel let go of her wrist and sat up, she then looked at her mother and then at her friend and her voice became demanding, the one that belonged to their queen "Jessica what memory of mine have you erased and Mom what have you done with her?"
Both of them could not lie to their queen so they just stood there with their heads lowered but didn't say anything. Rachel felt that it was the most important piece of her heart and she could not help but speak louder "I demand you to tell me the truth or there will be consequences for going against the queen."
Jamie went down on her knees and bowed her head "I am sorry for doing this, My Queen but if I had the chance to do that again, I would still do the same because it is the best for you and this is what a mother is saying. As for the punishment, I am ready to accept anything but I will not tell the truth. Jessica has nothing to do with it so let her go."
Before she could say anything Jessica to kneeled in front of her too and had her head bowed "No, Your Highness, it is not her I was the one to do the magic on you. You are free to punish me but please don't ask for the truth because we won't be able to tell that to you ever."
Rachel felt like she was stabbed in her chest and her heart clenched, tears flowed through her eyes "Please get up don't do this and why can't you tell me the truth. I have these images but I can't see the person, it is the person I love and if you have erased my memories because he broke my heart you can give it back I will be able to tolerate it."
Jamie got to her feet and with a determined look she said "Rachel, sweetie I can just tell you this much that Jessica and I combined our powers and you know that in that sort of magic we can't tell you anything for at least 1 or 2 months. You know the reasons very well so I would suggest that you should go abroad for some time to avoid your memories being triggered."

She gave it a thought and then hugged her mother "I will go after a week because that is the time that I require to stabilize the condition of the company here and then I will leave for some time."
Jessica smiled "I will go with you."
Jamie nodded "Charles will take care of the company temporarily here while you start establishing it abroad."
Rachel smiled "I will surely do that and this is only because I trust you."
Jamie nodded "I will give you a surprise when you return but let Jessica erase your memory for now or you will be in constant pain."
Rachel smiled and shook her head "Don't do that or my memories will be triggered more often but this way with a little amount of memories I will know that I don't have to get into this zone of thinking."
Jamie nodded "You know that better so we will go with whatever you say."
Rachel nodded and smiled "Mom you talk to dad then and Jessica you prepare for everything while I handle the work at the company."
Jessica and Jamie nodded their heads and went to out to turn in for the night. Rachel decided to stop thinking about this forbidden memory for a while to protect this person but her heart still clenched in pain as if something terrifying had happened to in the memory. As a queen she had the power to lock a certain memory in her head temporarily and not think about it and anything related to that memory would be blocked out.
She closed her eyes and performed that magic on herself and after she was successful, she finally closed her eyes and said "I can do this for you."
Next day she went to work and arranged a few meetings, she made everyone work to their full potentials and as a boss she was happy that she was called the most terrifying person because that is what she wanted and had to do to get the effective work from her employees.
A week passed by quickly and with Rachel working day and night she was able to get the company back to the top and within this week she became the most feared and most respected person in the country. Everyone knew about her and she was like the highlights of the news and then the news spread that she was going to spread her business out of the country which made her even more popular.
She was the most talked person everywhere but she was not interested in any of that because she was trying to keep herself busy with work to keep her mind distracted. She became famous as the cold and aloof richest president. There was peace in the wizardland too or it seemed peaceful before the storm but she didn't care because she was ready to fight.
It was finally the day she had to leave and Jamie, Jessica and Charles came to see her off. At last she had asked Jessica to stay there and help Charles with the company, she told her she would handle everything by herself. When she was about to leave Oliver greeted her loudly from a great distance "Hey Rach."
Rachel smiled and waved at him and when he came to stand in front of him she said "It's so good to see that you have come to see me off." She then looked at the bag that he was carrying and with a confused look she asked "Wait but why do you have a bag?"
He beamed with happiness "My Dad had an important business to handle in France and at the last moment he got sick. He was about to cancel the meeting but I told him that I will go instead of him, what harm could it do because even if he didn't go he would loose the deal so why not give me a chance."
Rachel laughed "You are such a jerk to be happy at you father's sickness."
He smiled "I focus on positive aspects and right now it is that I get to travel with you."
