Chapter 300
Rachel gritted her teeth in anger. At a time like this, Matthew was still thinking about these useless matters. She didn't know what he was thinking. It was as if men... Realizing she had gotten distracted, she quickly redirected her thoughts.
Biting her lips, she made a soft plea. "I have something intriguing to discuss with you. Come quickly!"
On the other end of the line, Matthew was stunned by what was happening.
The icy beauty had actually responded like this? That shouldn't be possible.
Rachel waited for a long time, but there was no response. "Are you there? When are you coming? Say something!" she said.
Matthew was now a bit excited, and he replied, "I'm on my way and will be there soon. Just wait for me!"
Hearing this, Rachel finally felt reassured. She asked Tracy to join her in going to the first floor to check on the situation.
On the first floor, an SUV slowly moved forward and reached the company entrance, completely blocking the way.
Several security guards watched helplessly, trying to persuade Chester but not daring to take further action.
They had been terrified after Louis had beaten them up before. Some were still on medical leave, and most likely wouldn't recover for a few months.
Andrew had also taken down a few security guards, leaving the remaining guards deeply intimidated. Now, they were so scared that they were even more polite than the receptionists at the front desk. Rachel approached the entrance and noticed it was blocked. She said, "I'm Rachel Carter, the president of Wealthwave Group. If there's an issue between us, let's sit down and talk it out.
"Blocking our entrance won't resolve anything and will only make matters worse."
Finally, someone had come out!
Chester stepped out of the car and gave Rachel a once-over. She was striking, and under different circumstances, he might have tried to flirt with her.
But today, he was here to cause trouble.
"You're Rachel, right?" he asked. "Hand over the person who ambushed my brother."
Rachel was taken aback and asked, "Who is your brother? Who do you want me to hand over?"
Chester thought she must be pretending to be clueless.
He grew increasingly agitated and said, "My brother's name is Louis. Who ambushed him? Bring him out, and I'll handle it myself! In Lambda City, anyone who dares to ambush Louis must have a death wish!"
Rachel quickly understood. Sara had brought Louis to cause trouble, and Matthew had intervened to stop Louis.
The man in front of her seemed formidable, so all she could do was stall until Matthew arrived. "You... Just wait a moment. He'll be here soon," she said.
Chester said arrogantly, "I'll give you ten minutes. If I don't see him in ten minutes, I'll destroy your company! And if he's not here in 20 minutes, I'll set your company on fire!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a lighter, flicked it open, and a blue flame sparked to life.
Fear seized Rachel's heart. It was the first time she had dealt with someone so insane. She didn't dare say more, worried that she might anger him and cause irreparable damage.
A group of security guards stood beside Rachel, watching Chester.
Chester glanced at them with
growing disdain. He said, "Look at
you bunch of fools. None of you can fight or even have the guts to face me directly. Yet someone dared to ambush my brother? That's utterly audacious!
"That chauffeur... What's his name again? If I don't take him down today, I'll eat my hat!"noveldrama
The guards were already terrified and stayed silent, too scared to speak up.
Rachel had thought of explaining that Matthew hadn't ambushed Louis, but she feared it might provoke Chester further. Therefore, she chose to remain silent.
Suddenly, the screech of brakes cut through the air as a black sedan came to a stop by the curb.
What do you think?
