Chapter 1169 You Need My Help
"Rest assured, Ms. Bai. I will keep an eye out," Holley nodded.
"Good," Rachel said with an approving smile. She nced around surreptitiously. After making sure
that no one was around, she made her way to the men''s room.
As she was about to step inside, she ran into a man who wasing out of the restroom. He was
bewildered. He stopped and scrutinized the beautiful woman. She threw a warning nce at the man
as he continued staring at her.
He opened his mouth, attempting to say something. But when he met Rachel''s threatening gaze, he
froze and held his tongue. The second he got over the fear, he ran away in a fluster as if he had seen a
ghost.
Holley was amused by the scene which was unfolding in front of her.
''What a coward! Unlike him, Charles is a handsome,petent and well-bred gentleman. Nowadays,

men like him are so rare, '' she thought.
Charles was alone inside the restroom now.
He was stuck inside because he had drunk too much. He seldom drank, and as a result, he felt his
stomach churning. With his hands pressed against the edge of the basin, the omnipotent president
lowered his head and puked again and again.
When he was finally done, he opened the tap to wash his face. And he reflected, ''I cannot do this
anymore. I drank too much!''
A short shrill scream pulled him back from his thoughts. "Oh my God. What are you doing here?"
Charles was familiar with the voice. And he found it disgusting.
"Seriously? Are you kidding me? Why are you here?" Charles asked with a poker face. He looked up in
the mirror and saw a dumbfounded Rachel whose jaw had almost dropped to the floor.
''Why does she always have to appear around my corner?
Or do I hate her so much that I''m hallucinating about her?
Oh, yeah. This is just an illusion. Otherwise, why would she be in the men''s restroom?'' he brooded.
"Charles, I know that you don''t like me. But even so, how could youe into thedies'' room to
corner me? This is a public ce," Rachel dered in a furious voice. She made it sound like she was
truly surprised to see him there.
"Rachel, open your eyes and check if you are really in thedies'' room. This is so ridiculous," Charles
said defiantly, rolling his eyes at the woman. ''I am definitely in the men''s room. Lance brought me here,
and there was another man in here just now, '' he thought.
"I am pretty sure that I entered thedies'' room..." Rachel insisted, as she let her voice trail off. Acting
embarrassed, she hurried out and raised her head to check the sign. In a blink, she came back and
muttered, "My mistake. It is the men''s room."
Her cheeks were colored in crimson. With a coy look, she uttered apologetically, "I am sorry. I thought
you were in the wrong ce. I am so sorry..."
Charles was slightly shocked to see her act in such a humble manner. Rachel was bossy, as far as he
knew.
"That''s enough. Now that you know, get out!" he demanded in a harsh tone. Astonished as he was at
her new attitude, he still couldn''t control his abhorrence for her.
"Charles, I feel really sorry for what happened to your wife. I never expected such a thing to happen. It
was all Holley''s and Duncan''s doing. They did all of that behind my back," Rachel said, pretending to
look upset.
Holley hadn''t asked her to say those words. It was her own script.
Since she had spent so much time with Holley, she had learnt a thing or two from her. Even if she
hadn''t met Holley, she already had the heart to readily sell others out for her own good.
"So, you are saying that it was Holley''s idea to set Sher up?" Charles asked, leering at her. Rachel''s
statement caught him by surprise, not because he believed her words, but he had always thought that
Rachel had teamed up with Holley. However, it never dawned on him that they were actually just taking
advantage of each other and that they would rat each other out for their own interests.
''Birds of a feather flock together, '' he thought in disdain.
"Yes. They used me. But, I should also take responsibility for what happened. We have known each
other for a long time. I don''t want to see you saddened by all this," Rachel replied, lowering her head.
Sensing that Charles was less hostile towards her, she was overwhelmed with joy. But her face didn''t
betray her feelings.
She put on an innocent look, trying to prove that she had nothing to do with Sheryl''s lewd videos and
rk''s and Shirley''s abduction.
But she had no idea what was going through Charles'' mind at that moment. He had started to suspect
why she had entered the wrong restroom.
''Lance used an excuse to leave me alone here...'' he pondered and it immediately dawned on him.
''She is really something. Even Lance has taken her side.
Did they really think that they could fool me because I got a little drunk?''
Although Rachel was ying innocent in front of him and was trying to please him in such a humble
way, his heart didn''t soften for her, let alone forgive her.
He saw through her trick, but he decided to y dumb because he wanted to know what she was up
to. In a casual tone, he said, "It is such a coincidence that you are here too."
When Rachel heard this, she was convinced that her n had seeded. With an elfin smile, she
replied cheerfully, "Oh, yes. I wasn''t expecting you here. How about we get out of here first and talk
Although she was no longer a teenage girl, she used to be such a good actress. So she yed coy
without any ws. Her trick would''ve worked on any other man. But this was Charles.
She had chosen the wrong person.
"Okay," Charles agreed with an indifferent smile. He nned to go along with her to see what game
she was ying. So, he decided to follow Rachel out of the restroom.
"Charles, you are drunk. You need my help," Rachel said loudly, as she ced his arm around her
neck. And Charles didn''t refuse. She spoke loudly so that Holley would hear her and hide somewhere
quickly.
Holley did get Rachel''s message. As Rachel and Charles walked out of the restroom, she turned
around and went straight to thedies'' room.
"Slow down, Charles. This way," Rachel said, turning to wink at Holley.
Holley knew what she was supposed to do next. When Rachel inclined forward to block Charles'' sight,
she ran quickly and was soon out of their sight. As she passed Sheryl''spartment, she knocked
hard on the door three times.
"Who is it? Come on in!" a female voice resounded from inside the booth.
