《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 369 - Setting up (6)
Advertisement
She called Jamie and told her what had happened and now that everything was going according to their plan, they were extremely satisfied. Although Rachel and Robert had agreed that they would do whatever was arranged for them, they had no idea what was in store for them.
They thought that it was better to give all this engagement stuff a rest and let them take a break. They knew that it had been tough on Rachel all this while and they wanted her to have a little breather and relax. Jessica had decided not to let Robert know about this and bring his straight to his engagement party, she was sure he would be happy but as for Rachel, it was better for her to know beforehand or she would not take time to stirr up trouble. They knew that when they had talked about her being responsible, she only thought that it would be some compensation and nothing else but to think that she had to be bound for life all of a sudden without any preparation, she was not going to take that easily.
She still didn't know anything and wanted to clear her head so she decided to go out with a friend to relax, off course Jessica was out of the choice as she was the sister of the person she had messed up with so she called Oliver who immediately picked up the call and said in surprise "To what do I have this honor?"
Rachel rolled her eyes, not that he could see but his voice was enough to calm her down and she smiled as she said "Are you free?"
He gave it some thought and said "I have some work but it will just take an hour, what is it?"

"Alright, I will meet you in an hour. I want to go and have out and take a break."
"Oh my God, the great president of the no. 1 company in the country wants to go out with me, such an honor. I don't think my weak heart can take it."
Rachel started laughing as she knew he was just joking around. He could sense when she was not in a good mood and immediately say something to lighten up the atmosphere. No matter what, her heart felt at ease and she teased him "Now that you realize how rare this opportunity is, you should grab it without another word."
He laughed and it was infectious, Rachel started feeling a little happy. He too didn't joke around more as he was busy and simply said "Alright then, I will pick you up after I am free just tell me what you want to do as I know you won't be going for a drink."
Rachel replied with a smile "You know that so we won't be drinking but I want to go shopping and you will accompany me then later we can have lunch together."
He agreed and hung up the call, he was already very happy that Rachel had called him on her own and asked him to accompany her and this time he didn't have to put in any effort to do anything but this also made him wonder if something was wrong because he knew now that Robert was back, things were going to be different so it made him think if something was wrong with their relationship. He didn't let his imagination run wild as he told himself that he could find that out soon enough so he began to work. He wished to be near Rachel as soon as possible so he managed to finish his work in half the time and went to pick Rachel up.

She was not in the mood to get dressed so she just wore her regular jeans and a tank top. She pulled her hair into a pony tail and as usual didn't put on any make up, she didn't like using it unless it was a special occasion because she felt that makeup destroyed the natural beauty. She was right as her skin was so clear, soft and beautiful that she didn't require any makeup to hide it.
When she saw that Oliver was here before time, she beamed at him and said "I thought you said, you could not come for another hour?"
Oliver smiled at her "How could I make the beautiful Miss President wait for that long, if people were to find out about it, I would be a dead meat."
Rachel laughed "Alright, you can stop that now."
He nodded and then held her hand "Alright, I will stop it but you have to tell me what happened to you."
Rachel smiled as she said "Oh, it's nothing."
Oliver looked at her "Tell me, you know I won't let it go just like that."
Rachel said "Alright, it's nothing much, it's just I am confused about some things and I just need to clear my head. I will tell you everything once it's settled and I have thought things through."
Oliver smiled and nodded his head in understanding, if she was not ready to tell anything yet, he was not going to force her and wait for her because he knew that she trusted him enough to tell him everything when she was ready. He smiled and said "Alright then let's go and have fun."
Rachel smiled as she said "I will drive, I want to go to this place that is newly opened."
Oliver agreed thinking that it must be some new shop that she wanted to see so he allowed her to drive but when he did that, he saw a devilish grin curve up her lips and it gave him a bad feeling as he asked "Wait, where are we going?"
Rachel didn't say anything and sat inside the car on the driver side while Oliver had no other choice but to join her. He still had a worried look as Rachel began to drive but no matter what he asked, she didn't tell him, where they were going and kept driving silently.
