His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1228 Are You Threatening Me

"I really have to go to a meeting now. All my colleagues are already waiting for me!" Dustin said

impatiently and terminated the call immediately.

He wouldn't want to give Rachel any chance to disturb him. Otherwise, it would cost him a lot of energy

to get rid of this trouble.

Rachel still had a lot to say, but the call was cut short.

"Damn it! This fatso! You are too insolent!" Rachel was infuriated, but she couldn't do anything to

change the situation.

Luckily, despite Dustin's efforts to avoid her, he didn't tell her any harsh words over the phone. So she

thought, maybe she could still have a try.

She had no time to think about it carefully. She had to take actions as soon as possible and tried her

best to reduce the loss of Tarsan Corporation.

She dressed herself hastily and left the office with the car keys. Her employees who came for her

signature got mute as they saw her cold face.

As Rachel picked up the set of keys on her desk, the girl holding the files in front of her couldn't help

but just bow towards her and watch her leave the company without a word.

"Do you think Ms. Bai can find a way to resolve the crisis of the company this time?" As soon as the

employees were sure that Rachel had already left the room, they began talking about the bad situation

their company was facing.

"It's hard to say. Although Tarsan Corporation is a prosperous enterprise abroad, it can't easily

overcome its problem here. As you've known, here in Y City, Charles Lu is the leading figure in

business. With great conflict with Charles, how can our company exist in this city?"

"I'm really curious about the reason why our boss set up our company in Y City."

"Oh! I know it!" A man from the next desk who happened to know the reason stood up excitedly and

crossed his arms against his chest proudly. His eyes were sparkling as if he held the key to it all.

"Tell us why. We are really curious about it. Actually, the previous city where our company was situated

is better than Y City. So why did Ms. Bai choose to return to Y City? Although Y City is her hometown,

the scandal and gossip about her have destroyed her fame. If I were her, I would have stayed away

from Y City. So why did she insist on coming back?"

"Evidently, she wanted to rebuild her fame or accomplish what she once desired."

"What do you mean by what she once desired? Do you know what it is?" an employee asked with great

curiosity.

"Do you really want to know what it is?"

"Of course! Just tell us what it is! We can't wait to know!" People were always curious about the things

they didn't know. For these employees, it was a good chance to know more secrets about their boss.

"You should just wait. The truth will be revealed in time." This absurd answer disappointed everyone.

Their curiosity vanished as fast as it had been piqued. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

"Huh! I bet you don't know it either, do you?"

"I agree. You just arouse our interest, but in reality, you also know nothing about it."

"Enough! Today is not the proper time to talk about it. What we should be thinking about now is if we

should be staying at Tarsan Corporation or not." Someone decided to divert everyone's attention by

starting a new topic.

"The one who asked such question must be an idiot," a woman said abruptly.

"What? Did you call me an idiot just now? You are the idiot!" the man who started the topic responded

angrily.

"Let me explain to you, then you will know I was right. Tarsan Corporation is an international enterprise

after all, so you don't have to worry too much. Even though it can't stay in Y City because of its poor

management, it won't go bankrupt. On worst case scenario, we will be assigned back to work abroad,

but its condition is as easy and comfortable as here."

Everyone in the office began talking about it warmly. They all had to admit, that woman's words made

sense. As long as Tarsan Corporation didn't go bankrupt, they had no reason to worry about their future

being at risk.

At the same time, Rachel was in a hurry to go to Dustin's corporation. She had no chance to hear her

employees' discussion about her and the company, not that she cared about it at all. Traffic was light so

it didn't take her long to get there.

"Hello, I come to see Mr. Zhang." Rachel greeted the receptionist at the gate of Dustin's company.

"Excuse me, miss. Do you have an appointment with Mr. Zhang?" the receptionist asked in a polite

manner. This question embarrassed Rachel. Of course she didn't have an appointment with Dustin.

Even if she really tried to make an appointment with him, he would surely try his best to avoid her.

But Rachel had already made up her mind, she would see him today and no one could stop her. She

considered for a while and got an idea. "I am Lance's secretary from Silver Corporation. He is

expecting me, so if you can just tell Mr. Zhang, I'm sure he will let me in," she explained.

Dustin had always wanted to be friends with Lance. If he learned that his visitor was from Lance's

company, he would allow her to see him even without an appointment.

"Okay, wait a moment please," the receptionist advised politely. She didn't doubt Rachel's identity at all.

Working in this field for many years, the receptionist knew about Dustin's relationship with Silver

Corporation, so she must be polite with the woman from Silver Corporation.

The receptionist called her boss's extension and inquired his opinion about the visitor in a respectful

tone over the phone. After a few minutes, she hung up and returned to Rachel who was patiently

waiting. "Please follow me, miss. Mr. Zhang is waiting for you in his office."

Rachel's scheme worked, but she couldn't feel any pleasure from it. She felt relieved as soon as the

receptionist turned her back on her and started walking to lead the way. She must see Dustin

immediately. They walked along a narrow hallway and stopped in front of the fourth door to the left. The

receptionist knocked gently and then opened the door so she could come in.

Dustin was busy reading the newspaper when he heard the knocks. He stopped and decided to fold it

so he could focus on his visitor. As Rachel stepped into his office, the smile on Dustin's face vanished.

"Rachel, what brings you here?"

"Mr. Zhang, is that how you welcome me?" she asked in a sweet and alluring voice. With a seductive

smile on her face, she slowly stepped towards Dustin. She placed one of her hands on her waist while

the other was toying on the pendant of her necklace.

"Rachel, please behave yourself! You know that I'm a serious man. I won't be seduced so easily," he

warned her. Dustin was just a common man, so he almost couldn't refrain himself when being seduced

by such a beauty like Rachel. But he knew he should resist Rachel's enchantment and bear not having

sex with her. Otherwise, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Usually, you are serious when you are not in bed. Do I need to remind you of what kind of beast you

are in bed? Mr. Zhang, have you forgotten all the amazing and happy time we used to spend

together?" Without any other way out, Rachel had to threaten and seduce Dustin this way.

She didn't care whether the way she took was too clumsy or not. She was left with no other choice. So

she must use the only card that she had.

"What do you mean by that, Rachel? Are you threatening me?" Dustin asked with a sneer.

"Of course not. I dare not threaten you, Dustin. We've made history together and you know for a fact

that you will forever hold a place in my heart. So please don't get me wrong. The only reason why I

came here today is to rebuild our relationship!"
