Marcel took a deep breath. It was very fragrant, with the faint fragrance of Rae's body. He suddenly stiffened, pulled the quilt away and glanced at himself, then smiled bitterly, and comforted himself, "Be good, don't come out to make trouble. I'm almost exhausted today, I will make you comfortable another day!"
After speaking, he leaned on the pillow and fell asleep.
Rae was resting on the sofa, but when it was dawn, she found herself waking up in his arms. She opened her eyes first and fixed her eyes sharply. She suddenly remembered something. She leaned to one side and her big eyes met a pair of deep eyes. .
Those eyes were darker than the night, and there was an invisible gloom inside. Suddenly he blinked, and the corners of his lips formed a beautiful arc. He smiled and said, "Good morning, girlfriend!"
Rae was taken aback and was a little embarrassed. Waking up in the arms of a man early in the morning, she was very happy, very shy, and a little embarrassed!
Did Marcel carry her in in the middle of the night?
How was she sleeping? Did she push the quilt? Did she drool? Was her image damaged?
"Don’t think too much, you drooled yesterday! The sofa is wet!" Marcel seemed to see Rae's embarrassment, and specifically used it as a topic.
Rae blushed suddenly and buried her head in the pillow. "Why you took me here?"
Marcel lifted the quilt and got out of bed. At this time, he was already dressed. He pulled Rae's pillow and sat on the side of the bed and said, "Okay, don't be shy, I'm very busy today. Are you sure you want to a moving company to help you? You have my house’s key, move in to my bedroom. I am going to investigate the case. I will try to come back to accompany you tonight!"
Hearing these words, Rae's heart beat fast suddenly. To accompany her tonight?
How to accompany?
Probably the idea in her mind was seen through by Marcel. He smiled badly and said, "Girlfriend, don't think too much, I don't have the energy to have sex with you. This case is very tricky, and the senior management of YS Club may be involved in it. And neither Benjamin nor Ophelia are easy to deal with! So we have to solve the case quickly!"
"Am I going to help you?" Rae was a little worried about him.
"After your foot recovers!" Marcel shook his head. "You should take care of your body now. I need your help in the future!"
This was also very ambiguous!
Rae nodded.
Marcel ate breakfast and left. Rae called the moving company and made an appointment. She didn't have many things, so she could pack up in the morning, see Ophelia at noon, and move house in the afternoon. And then she can sort out her luggage in the evening!
After she made all the arrangements, she received a call from Ophelia. Rae admired Ophelia's perseverance.
Ophelia was still as same as before. When she was in school, she was also like this! But the public relations department of YS Club really suited her.
"Miss Baxter, where are you? I'll drive to pick you up!" Ophelia said directly on the phone.
Rae refused to the phone, "No, I'll take a taxi. Where does Miss Grant want to go?"
"It depends on you. Miss Baxter doesn’t need to take a taxi, I have a car. My car is fuel-efficient, you don’t have to pay for the taxi fare! Also, I think your feet are not well, you should be injured, so don't run around!"
Rae felt warm in her heart. She hadn’t got this kind of concern from a previous friend for a long time!
Ophelia!
She thought for a while and said, "Well, come to InterContinental Century City, I'll wait for you at YN Coffee Bar!"
"Okay, we'll see you there!" Ophelia hung up.
Rae went out and arrived soon.
Not long after, Ophelia was here too!
She drove a brand-new BMW, the car should be about one million.
Rae remembered that Ophelia's family was not very rich, but she didn't expect she was so successful these years and can drive a very good car!
When she was stunned, Ophelia had already walked over. When she saw Rae’s expression, she said directly, "The car was given by someone else. With my salary at YS Club, I can buy it, but I can't afford it. Well, I'm kept a mistress by a man! He is rich and handsome. We feel we are suitable to each other, so we are together!"
Rae was very surprised by Ophelia's directness. How could she be bold to tell her about this kind of thing, or did she still think of her as Natalie?
Rae smiled awkwardly, a little embarrassed!
They walked into the coffee bar, ordered two cups of coffee and two desserts, and sat in a hidden corner.
As soon as Rae took a sip of coffee, she heard Ophelia say in a confident tone, "Come on, Natalie, why are you pretending to be Rae?"
Rae's eyes widened suddenly.
Ophelia's gaze fell sharply on Rae's face, "Don't pretend, I know you well! Natalie, you are not honest to me now. Am I good to you?"
Rae bit the bullet and said, "Miss Grant, I really don't know what you are talking about!"
"Natalie, you are still pretending. Don't think that I can't recognize you. I help you pierce your ears on your earlobe! I nearly hit you in the face. Do you think I'll ignore such obvious features?
Rae was completely stiff!
To have a too clever best friend was simply to find death for herself!
Ophelia added, "No matter what your difficulties are, I have checked it. There is indeed a daughter named Rae in the Baxter family. She looks similar to you. You came to pretend to be her, very similar! But you can't hide it from me! I didn’t expose you thoroughly in the face of many people! Now you give me a good explanation, or I will call the police!"
Ophelia was threatening and tempting.
Rae finally couldn't help but shouted, "Ophelia!"
