Chapter 772: The Second Attack
: The Second Attack

After Connor heard what Rachel said, he nodded thoughtfully.
There were many people in this society who were like Nate.
For example, Nate and Harold. In the eyes of outsiders, Nate’s background was not as good as Harold’s. Naturally, he was not worthy of Rachel.
However, Nate’s Taylor Family was only very low-key because of some external reasons.
In addition, although Nate was in Porthampton, the main force of the Taylor Family was not in Porthampton.
This also made Nate’s background seem inferior to Harold’s.
However, if he angered Nate, it would be very easy for him to deal with Harold.
However, Nate was not willing to waste time on people like Harold. If the matter were blown up, it would significantly impact Nate’s reputation.
From the fact that Nate could take the initiative to cancel the blind date with Rachel, it could be seen that Nate was far more intelligent than Harold.
After inheriting Steven’s inheritance, Connor came into contact with many wealthy heirs. Many of them were rich heirs who were slightly famous in Porthampton.
However, there was still a big gap between these wealthy heirs and Nate, who was born into a big family.
Although many wealthy heirs were arrogant and domineering, they never cared about the consequences.
However, many wealthy heirs were still far more intelligent than average.
“All right, we’re almost done eating. Nate’s matter has also been resolved. I’m in a good mood today. Come and take a walk with me. I heard that the scenery in the Emperor’s Club is quite good. They rebuilt the scene of the imperial palace of the olden days…”
Rachel stretched her back and smiled at Connor.
“Since your matter has been resolved, what about my matter…” Connor asked Rachel with a smile.
“Let’s talk about your problem after you accompany me for a walk…” Rachel replied to Connor indifferently. Then, she took her bag and left the private room.
Connor looked at Rachel’s alluring back, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
However, now that Connor had a favor to ask of others, he could only try his best to satisfy Rachel’s request. After all, they had already kissed, so what could going on a walk with Rachel count for?
A few minutes later, Connor followed Rachel into the elevator.
At this moment, there were only Connor and Rachel in the elevator. Connor could smell the faint fragrance on Rachel’s body.
Connor couldn’t help but recall kissing Rachel and the lingerie that Rachel bought previously. After connecting all these things, Connor felt his heart beat faster.
“What are you thinking about?” Rachel saw that Connor’s expression seemed slightly off, so she asked Connor with a faint smile.
“Uhm…” After Connor heard Rachel’s question, he was stunned. He was a little flustered as he said in a low voice, “I’m not thinking about anything…”
“Let me tell you, Connor. I asked you to kiss me in the private room just now because I wanted to put on an act for my grandfather. Don’t think about it the wrong way, understand?” Rachel pointed at Connor as she threatened fiercely.
“Don’t worry. I won’t think about it the wrong way. I have no interest in a woman like you…” Connor replied helplessly. However, when he said the last sentence, he was a little guilty and very speechless.
“Connor, what do you mean by that? What do you mean you’re not interested in a woman like me?” After Rachel heard Connor’s words, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. She wanted to reason with Connor.
‘Clunk!’ However, as Rachel finished speaking, the elevator suddenly trembled violently and stopped operating.
Then, the lights in the elevator dimmed.
“Ah…” Rachel instinctively screamed.
Connor looked at Rachel beside him and smiled helplessly. Then, he said softly, “It’s just an elevator malfunction. Do you have to overreact?”
Rachel was stunned momentarily. Then she turned to look at Connor. She adjusted her emotions and said softly, “It was just an instinctive reaction. I’m a woman. Why can’t I be afraid…”
Connor looked at Rachel with a faint smile. Sometimes, Rachel, this woman was too domineering.
Therefore, to Connor, Rachel had always been an existence that feared nothing.
“What’s with Emperor’s Club? It hadn’t been long since it opened, and there is already a low-level mistake like an elevator accident?” Rachel subconsciously walked to Connor’s side and asked him in a low voice.
After Connor heard Rachel’s words, he was stunned. Rachel’s words also reminded Connor.
All the things in Emperor’s Club were done by Thomas alone. Connor was very clear about Thomas’s character. Thomas had always been very cautious. Moreover, Emperor’s Club had just opened not long ago, so Connor felt that the elevator in Emperor’s Club should not have such a low-level mistake.
At this moment, it was pitch black in the elevator. Rachel subconsciously took out her phone and lit up the surroundings.
“Could it be a blackout? It can’t be that the elevator is broken, right?” Rachel whispered to Connor.
Hearing that, doubt flashed in Connor’s eyes. Then, he said expressionlessly, “If there’s a blackout, that’s better. I’m worried that it’s not a blackout….”
“Are you saying this was not an accident, but someone did it intentionally?” Rachel was a brilliant woman. She instantly understood what Connor meant.
“Do you know why I want to learn martial arts from Jorge?” Connor asked Rachel in a low voice.
“Why?” Rachel asked softly.
“Some time ago, the people from Rockefeller found some hitmen to attack me, so I suspect this is the second time they are attempting an attack…” Connor replied to Rachel in a low voice.
A strange look flashed in Rachel’s eyes.
After hesitating, Connor walked to the elevator’s control panel and found the distress button. Then, he gently pressed it.
The security of the Emperor’s Club had always been excellent. Under normal circumstances, if someone pressed the distress button, they could contact the club staff directly and get someone to deal with the problem.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
‘Beep, beep, beep…’ However, at this moment, a blind tone came from the communication channel!
