Chapter 1407


    Chapter 1407 Banter


    Rachel pressed her lips and mumbled, “What’s the point of lying to you while I get stuck in such a


    miserable situation? Jordy, our families are close partners in business and you know who I am. Do you


    think I would do something so stupid to hurt myself?”


    Jordy watched her closely as she defended herself with self-evident questions.


    Rachel struggled topose herself while making eye contact with Jordy.


    At Jordy’s silent response, Rachel added, “Didn’t Gloria White say she saw a little red mole on the


    woman’s chest? I can prove my innocence.”


    Rachel looked serious. She was not kidding.


    Harold who stood behind felt surprised by her speech.


    As the nobledy of the Roberts Family, Rachel was determined to prove her innocence with such a


    im in front of a man. This courage and determination were obvious.


    Harold wasn’t there when it happened, and the woman wore a mask resembling Miss White’s face.


    Rachel’s belief wavered after seeing Rachel’s determination.


    Jordy, yet, remained sure.


    “You are wagering that I won’t have your cloth stripped off?” Jordy narrowed his eyes and looked


    Rachel’s body up and down with coldness.


    That was the Jordy she knew well enough, someone who was hard-hearted and merciless. But right


    now, she could not admit it, nor could she backed off.


    She looked at him with her head held high and said, “I didn’t say that I, Rachel Roberts, am a woman of


    integrity. On what ground could Gloria make such a false usation? She said that woman wore a


    mask that resembled her face and had a mole on her chest. I am willing to prove my innocence by


    taking my cloth off. What’s there to wager? Why should I be intimidated?”


    Jordy did not answer.


    What Rachel said did not really matter to Jordy


    He disdained to have such a conversation with people.


    Rachel was a suspect. She would not be convicted unless he had got direct evidence against her.


    If she wouldn’t admit it, so be it. She could stay here.


    “It is not our purpose to intimidate you. You’ve got that silver needle on your body. As time goes by. it


    might have an irreversible influence on you. If you don’t wanna be left paralyzed, you’d better admit it


    now, so that Gloria could release you,” said Jordy, turning around and walking away.


    Harold followed right behind him. He couldn’t help but give Jordy a thumbs up after what he had just


    said


    He was impressed by Jordy’s imitation ability.


    The resolution of Jordy when he left daunted Rachel. But she knew there was no point in wasting her


    breath in exining herself now. She still couldn’tpromise or panic.


    You had to endure it andpeted with them.


    Sooner orter, they would let go of her if she kept her mouth shut.


    She was after all the nobledy of the Roberts Family. She must not be looked down upon. She must


    stand her ground!


    Meanwhile in another ce, Gloria and Heather sat opposite each other.


    On the table between them were all kinds of barbecue food that Heather had his servants send over.


    Gloria was not a big fan of meat, but she grabbed a few bites anyway. “You made it? Not bad.”


    Heather admitted unabashedly, “Of course, I have to grill them myself to show my sincerity since I am


    the one inviting you over?”

    Gloria looked at him and didn’t reply.


    Although Heather behaved more restrained than before, there was still a certain sense of yfulness in


    his banter.
