Chapter 772 Provocation From Rachel (Part One)


    "He or she would definitely not be rude if I were talking with someone else. Your assumption does not


    stand up." Those who pretended to be well-educated yet acted and spoke the opposite were the kind of


    people Leena hated the most. How misleading she was!


    "Young girl, do yourself a favor and don''t trust something forever. It''s not good for you. Keep this in


    mind, things change all the time." Louisa teased arrogantly. She took out her card from her purse and


    passed it to the salesperson. A mocking smile was stered on her face.


    "Thanks for your kind advice but I don''t think I need it. I''d like to offer you the same suggestion though.


    Goodbye." That was a really annoying conversation. It made herpletely lose her patience and at


    the same time, lose her interest in shopping. Maybe she was not supposed to go out today. Otherwise,


    she would not have met such a disrespectful woman.


    "Smart you. Next time, don''t linger on things that you can''t afford." Louisa believed that it was easy to


    measure people by judging what they wore or how they looked. She clearly forgot something. As an old


    Chinese saying goes: thest thing one should not do is judging people with their appearance. Just like


    what just happened. Little did Louisa know that Leena Leng''s property and wealth were definitely far


    beyond what she could ever own as themander''s daughter.


    Leena curved her lips and said nothing. She just stayed silent and turned away. Was Louisa right that


    she couldn''t afford the ear-studs? Of course not. It was not even an exaggeration to say that she was


    rich enough to buy all the things inside that shop. It was just that she chose to be a low-profile woman.


    She did not spend too much time talking with the rudedy because she would like to maintain her low-


    key. Plus, ignoring those situations was what truly elegant women would do.


    Louisa was a picture of smug satisfaction when she took the ear-studs and walked out of that shop.


    She let go of the encounter and forgot about the woman she judged so quickly. She never had a clue


    that they would meet again in just a few days.


    Time slipped away fast. Soon there were only two days left before Duke and Belinda''s wedding


    ceremony. The whole office of Leng Group had been buzzing since morning. Their CEO just


    announced thetest news about him that he would take a week off two dayster. That was the


    reason why they needed to crunch all the works and meetings in advance within two days.


    Rachel Qin walked quickly to the president''s office with a pile of sales records in her hand. She was


    surprised with the big news Duke had announced this morning. She couldn''t figure out why he wanted


    to take a week leave in a sudden.


    She stood still after knocking on the door as she waited for a response. She heard nothing but silence


    though. It seemed like nobody was in the office at all. She reached out to turn the doorknob and tried to


    open the room. The sudden click from the knob surprised her. The door wasn''t locked. Therefore, Duke


    was either in his office or just left temporarily.


    She walked inside carefully. Her goal was only to ce the documents on his desk and leave. What


    happened two days ago made Duke hate her beyond decorum. She had concluded that it was better


    for her not to stay too close to him for a while so as to avoid more conflicts. They both needed to calm


    themselves down. Those were her thoughts until she found the phone he must''ve left on the desk. She


    decided to do something. She took a quick nce around to make sure that no one was there then


    picked the phone up with quivering hands. Maybe she could find something useful for her, she


    wondered.


    She unlocked the screen and got to his recent call list in hopes of finding Belinda''s number. She


    thought that it would be hard to get her number and never expected it to show without her even


    spending much time sliding through his list. Lucky her! She memorized the number quickly. The full


    name of the number was Belinda Shangguan. Rachel wondered if she was looking at the right detail.


    "What''re you doing here?" A deep voice was suddenly heard from behind. Duke was in the restroom


    the whole while. He looked refreshed as he stepped out of the mentioned room but then wasn''t able to


    stop himself from frowning when he saw Rachel.


    "Oh! I''m bringing you the sales records, Duke. I was about to leave seeing you were not in the office


    earlier. I identally touched your phone while putting the papers and it almost fell from the desk.


    Luckily, I got it! It avoided the fate of being broken." Rachel put the phone back on the desk. She was


    scared inside but tried her best to appear as casual as she could.


    "I see. You can leave now." Duke was a little puzzled yet thought that he was just probably too


    sensitive. He remained frowning as he watched Rachel left the room in a hurry. He picked his phone up


    and inspected it for a while. He found nothing unusual with it. A strange woman. He could not help


    wondering.


    Rachel''s heart was beating like crazy as she walked out of Duke''s office. She was so relieved when


    Duke said she could leave. She didn''t want to talk with him further in her situation. Anxiety and hurry


    were eating her and she might just sell herself of what she had done. She was so desperate to stay


    away from him at that time. She wished her feet have wheels. It would be very convenient for her to


    just glide out of that office full of threats. Thest thing she would want was for Duke to notice that


    there was something abnormal about her.

    She sighed with relief soon as she was away from the office. She walked to the rooftop and again,


    carefully watched her surroundings to make sure that there was nobody there. She took her phone out


    and dialed the number she got from Duke''s list.


    "Hello! Who''s that?" Belinda answered the phone without even taking a look at the calling ID. She took


    a sip from her coffee then put her mug aside. There were still tons of businesses that she needed to


    handle even after leaving one-third of the work-loads to Duke. Thepany had just gone through an


    expansion period and the work-volume was nothing but stressful. There were lots of responsibilities


    she had as the CEO.


    "Is that Belinda Shangguan, Duke Leng''s wife?" Rachel asked hesitantly. She was hoping for the


    woman''s negative reply. She was very reluctant to hear her answer but would still like to confirm if the


    Belinda she was talking with was the same as Duke''s Belinda.


    "Yes, this is Belinda Shangguan, Duke Leng''s wife. May I know who I am talking to, please." Belinda''s


    alert instinct rose upon hearing the woman''s voice on the other end. She turned from being cozy and


    she be not curious?


    "This is Rachel Qin. I am wondering if you are free tonight, Ms. Shangguan. We probably should meet


    and have some chats together." Rachel smiled grimly. Belinda Shangguan? She would show


    something to surprise her. She would make her a poor woman after tonight.
