《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 327 - Some time away (1)
Advertisement
Rachel didn't know whether to laugh or cry but she was sure to enjoy someone's company. She then said "Great then let's go together."
After the short encounter they went through security check in and finally it was time for them to board the plane. After they were seated, Robert asked "Where will you be staying."
Rachel looked at her "I was thinking of buying an apartment because while I am there I will expand our business so whenever I visit this place I can stay at my own place."
Oliver nodded his head "Liam lives there, he can help you look for a good place."
Rachel smiled "That would be great."
Oliver then looked at her and asked "It a long flight what do you plan to do?"
Rachel laughed and took out her headphones and an eye mask "I came prepared for the journey and I thought of would be alone."
Oliver made a sad face "I will be bored then."
Rachel handed him an extra eye mask that she always carried with her "Go to sleep we are going to be very busy there and we won't have any time to rest so this is our last chance."
He quickly grabbed the mask"You are right so I should rest and I have my travelling pillow with me."
Rachel smiled and nodded, she then put on some music and made sure that Oliver was asleep and would not disturb her while she did her work. She then took out her laptop and began to make plans of how to set the company in this new and foreign place. Thankfully she knew many languages and it made communication very easy for her. As she had been labeled as the cold and aloof person, the flight attendant who had to ask her if she wanted anything was scared to get near her seeing her work. She feared that she might be loose her job if she disturbed this person but on the other hand if she didn't ask her if she needed anything, she was still at the risk of losing her job. Rachel looked scary while she was working and the attendant was at the verge of crying. Rachel felt a presence near her for a long time but when the person didn't make any sound she looked up and saw a scared attendant. She suppressed her smile inside her thinking how scary her image was but eventually her smile surfaced and she thought it was best to treat her calmly as she seemed too scared, she said "Where you waiting for me to finish my work?"

Her heart raced at such a polite tone, she was shocked as the person in front of her was totally different from what she had heard, gaining some strength she nodded her head.
Rachel continued with her smile "You didn't need to wait and right now I don't want to have anything when I need something I will call you."
The girl who was scared to death relaxed and put on a smile "Call me anytime, it will be my honor to serve you."
She went away and now that Rachel was done with whatever she could do on her laptop, she set it aside and looked at Oliver who had just woken up "Am I that scary?"
Oliver rolled his eyes "Why do you think I have not forced a kiss on you yet when I know that can definitely win you over."
Rachel laughed "Alright so my hard work was worth it."
Oliver laughed too and said "Now stop working and take some rest."
Rachel nodded and placed her neck pillow behind her before she drifted off to sleep. Oliver looked at her face and began to admire every feature of it. He smiled "No matter how beautiful you are and how much I love you in the end it will be Robert who you will love."
Back at her house Jamie called Jessica "What should we do now, how can you erase her memory. I know she had said that she wants to keep this part but there are high chances it will fully recover. It will be too painful for her and you know we can't do that. Why did you decide not to go when it was the perfect chance you had."
Jessica held her shoulders "Relax, if I was there with her, she will always have her guard up against me but now that I am here she will never know that I erased her memory."
Jamie looked at her confused "What do you mean?"
Jessica smiled "I mean that I will fly next to her plane and wait for her to let her guard down, that will be the perfect opportunity for me to erase her memory."
Jamie nodded "Nice idea"
Jessica smiled "I will leave then" with that she spread her wings and flew into the sky and when she saw Rachel fall asleep she went into the plane, her wings were spread all the time to make sure, none of the human beings could see her. Although Oliver knew about her truth, he still could not see her until she decided to show herself to someone in this form. She went next to Rachel and finally she erased her memory and with that she flew back to Jamie telling her that the work was done.

Jamie smiled and hugged her "Good job, now do you want to stay here or go back to stay with him."
A bitter smile appeared on her face "Although he has healed, it will take him some time to be back to his normal self so I want to spend as much time as I can with him."
Jamie nodded "If this were to be seen by her, she would not have been able to get herself together."
"I know that is why we are making these efforts."
Jamie smiled "You are right and don't worry everything will be fine with time."
Jessica held back her tears "We are not even sure about that but I know I can't loose hope, we have to do it for them because we owe them."
"You are right."
"Alright, I will leave then."
Jamie nodded while Jessica left to go back to her house where she was greeted by a warm hug, she closed her eyes and let go of her thoughts while putting on a brave smile for the person in front of her "How was your day, did you feel any pain today?"
The person smiled "No they were nothing compared to the ones that I felt before but I am sure these will stop too."
Jessica suppressed her tears with a smile "Mnh, they will but tell me whenever you need me."
He nodded his head "Right now I am hungry and the food you made in the morning is finished."
She smiled "Don't worry, I will make something delicious just sit down and wait."
He nodded his head and went to sit on the chair while Jessica went to the kitchen to prepare something. Her heart clenched with pain for him but she knew she could not do much and just be there for him so she began to cook with a smile on her face.
After a while she heard the screams and then the sound of the chair falling, she let go of all the things and with tears in her eyes she went out. The man had fallen from the chair, his shirt was torn and on his back were red bruises. Blood was coming out of his wounds and he was shouting in pain lying on the floor hugging his body.
He was feeling the pain all over his body as if someone was ripping his skin apart. Jessica bent down and held her hands, her tears could not be held back anymore. The resistance had broken and she began to cry "Tell me what can I do to reduce your pain."
He let out another loud shriek and pushed Jessica away to make sure that she was not hurt by him. Although she hit the wall behind her, she knew his intention so she didn't say anything or leave the place instead she sat there and waited for him to be fine. Seeing him in pain made her heart clench and with every passing minute she could feel how much pain he was going through. She just sat there quietly to be there for him, knowing well she could not do anything and after 30 minutes, he finally calmed down.
Jessica went ahead to hug him "Where does it pain, let me help you with it."
He held her hand "I will be fine in a month or a little more and you know that so why do you have to sit here and torture yourself with my pain."
She controlled herself tears "I can't bear to loose you again so I won't let you be away from my sight especially when you are this vulnerable."
He patted her back "I will be fine now go and make some food for me."
Jessica nodded and rushed to the kitchen while the man fell on the floor in pain "I am sorry you have to go through this with me but I will try to heal myself as soon as possible."
