His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1165 What Are You Doing

"Let's go to that corner and wait. We will be discovered if we continue to stay here," Holley said,

changing the subject instantly.

"Okay," Rachel agreed without a second thought. She trusted in Holley. She was convinced that she

could achieve her goal more easily with her sidekick's support.

Half an hour later, Charles arrived at Lavender Bar and Lance was waiting for him at the entrance.

Lance owned the bar; he wanted to show his hospitality to the very important guest.

The instant Charles' car stopped, Lance strode towards it and opened the door for his distinguished

guest. "Mr. Lu, I highly appreciated your presence at my humble place. Welcome to Lavender Bar,"

Lance said in a flattering tone.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhan. I'm only here to have some fun. I hope you didn't go into too much trouble for my

sake," Charles said. There was no aggression or arrogance in his tone.

"Mr. Lu, you are just being modest. If you wanted to relax yourself, you could go anywhere in the world.

But you chose Lavender Bar. I'm humbled by your trust and hence I can't fail you," Lance beamed.

"You do know how to please people, Mr. Zhan," Charles replied, laughing loudly. Lance's charming

words lightened his mood.

"I'm glad you are pleased," Lance said with a wide smile. "Oh! I apologize, Mr. Lu. I should have invited

you inside. Please, come this way. We can have a drink."

"Oh, sure," Charles replied with a faint smile before stepping into the bar with Lance.

"Ms. Bai, isn't that Mr. Lu?" Holley whispered to her boss as she spotted two figures at the entrance of

the bar.

"Yes, that's him. Now, I can sit back and watch this interesting show," Rachel said with a smirk. She

was confident that her plan would work this time around.

She intended to seize this opportunity to create a misunderstanding between Sheryl and Charles and

make them turn against each other.

Her final purpose was to separate the two and make them stand at the door to their divorce.

She began texting Lance according to Holley's plan.

Her messages would include pleas and threats. She decided to start with a plead, asking Lance to do

her a favor. In case he refused her request, her plan was to threaten him with their nasty secret.

The last person in the world Lance would want to know their secret was Charles.

Holley was the one who had come up with this whole plan.

As Rachel was typing the message, Holley's eyes were glued on Lance. She wanted to observe his

reaction when he read her message.

Just as she had expected, Lance raised his brow when he opened the message. But since he was with

Charles, he didn't dare show any emotions on his face. Placing his phone back into his pocket, he put

on a fake smile and said to Charles with a gesture, "Mr. Lu, this way please. We've prepared a VIP

room for you on the third floor."

With a slight nod, Charles strode towards the lift. His deep-set eyes and tall stature were a feast for

Rachel's yearning eyes. Even though she was standing in a far corner, her heart palpitated as if she Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

was a teenage girl who had just hit puberty.

'This man possesses an inborn irresistable charisma. Many years have passed, and yet, he affects me

so much. I could never forget him. He will always be the one for me, ' she sighed.

The thought of getting him back excited and motivated her.

"What are we going to do now, Holley? Are we gonna stay here and do nothing?" Rachel urged. She

was losing her patience.

"Be patient, Ms. Bai. Sheryl's room door is open at the moment, which means that she is expecting

someone else. There are already many people in that room. So I'm guessing she is here with her

employees. You know how such dinner works. She will not be leaving before midnight," Holley replied.

"And Mr. Lu isn't going anywhere either. After all, he just arrived. It's gonna take a while before he gets

drunk. Haste makes waste, Ms. Bai."

'Hastes makes waste. I've repeated those words to Rachel more than once. But she has never followed

my advice till now, ' she thought angrily.

Holley chased the annoying thought away from her mind. She still needed Rachel. Once she turned out

to be useless to her, she would dump her. Holley would do anything to reach her goal.

"You are right. I will be patient. We'll wait here," Rachel said. She drew a long breath to hold back her

impatience before taking a seat in the corner.

A few minutes later, she got a message from Lance. It read, "What are you doing, Rachel? I need to

focus on dealing with Charles. Don't cause me any trouble now, okay?"

"Mr. Zhan, I have no intention of getting you into trouble. I just need you to do me a favor. If you don't

want to, then I will have to turn to someone else for help. But as for our secrets, I am afraid that..." She

left the text hanging like that and sent it to Lance. Her message was clear. She assumed that Lance

would know the consequences of turning down her request.

In a few seconds, Lance texted her back. It read, "You would achieve nothing by ruining me. You'd

better keep that in mind, Rachel Bai. I could continue to work with Shining Company even if you desert

me." It was evident that he was miffed by Rachel's threat.

"Do you think Mr. Lu would want to work with you if he knew what was going on between us? If you

lose both Tarsan Corporation and Shining Company as partners, how will you manage your company?

You really think that your company could survive alone?" Holley typed on Rachel's phone and sent it.

Rachel was slightly uneasy after Holley had sent the message.

"Do you really think this is going to work, Holley? What if he gets offended and refuses to meet us

again? What would we do?" Rachel asked as she looked at the message Holley had sent.

"Don't worry, Ms. Bai. If we didn't do this right now, he would never agree to do you this favor. Even if

he gets mad at you, it doesn't matter. When you meet him next time, you can apologize to him. You do

know how to please a man, don't you?" Holley asked, as she assured the rattled woman. Rachel was

not an innocent little girl. She knew what Holley was implying.

"As long as Mr. Zhan does what we ask of him without making any mistakes, Mr. Lu will not suspect

that he works with us. If Mr. Zhan is not stupid, he will do us this favor," Holley said, with a calculated

look in her eyes.
