His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1271

Early the next morning, Bernard and Rachel made their way to the police station. The sun shone brightly as they stepped out of the car. After yesterday's near-death experience, Rachel felt thankful for this brand new day.

The police station was a busy place. A lot of police officers came and went as they sat in the waiting area. A few minutes later, a policewoman finally approached them. "Good morning. This way ma'am," she said as she led them to her desk for questioning.

Rachel reported the evidences she collected to the police, which included the evidence of Miranda killing Lance and the matter of Miranda and Danny transferring the property illegally. She also charged Miranda of kidnapping and attempted murder.

The police checked the evidences she presented and told her that they would deal with the case as soon as possible.

On the way back from the police station, Rachel was absent-minded. She was thinking that after coming back, Holley would be assigned to solving the problem of the business partners withdrawing capital. As the deadline approached, if the company couldn't get any investments, they would have no choice but to shut it down.

Bernard suddenly broke the silence.

"About my question yesterday, you said you would think about it," he started. "Have you come up with a decision?" Perhaps because it was different from the hazy night yesterday, under the bright sunshine, Bernard looked nervous and awkward obviously.

Rachel faltered,"I have thought about it for a long time. I don't think we know each other enough, so we... We might not be the best for each other. I am sorry, Bernard."

Bernard felt depressed when he heard it, though it was the answer he expected. He always thought that Rachel was out of his league. In the past, he could only see her onscreen, and now, even if she was beside him, he could feel the long distance between them.

Looking at the disappointment in Bernard's eyes, Rachel wanted to take back what she said for a second, but she was clear that he was not the one she had been looking for. Even with his strong feelings for her, he was unable to give her the lifestyle that she wanted. She felt sorry for him but she couldn't be his girlfriend.

Rachel made her way to her office as soon as she arrived Tarsan Corporation. Her assistant told her that Holley arrived half an hour earlier and was already waiting for her.

Holley was finally released from prison and today she came back to Tarsan Corporation. Rachel hugged her warmly and stated,"Welcome back, Holley. You have suffered much." Facing Rachel, Holley smiled sweetly but she had only one thought. She had won the bet fortunately. No matter what happened during this time, at least Rachel didn't let her down.

Thinking back on the days she was in prison, Holley counted every day as if it was a year long. She couldn't stand it. There was a lot of times that she thought about retracting her testimony, but fortunately, she had persisted and endured the hardship. At last, she was finally free. Nothing would stop her in doing what she wanted.

Now the key point was to use Rachel's appreciation and trust, and to slowly grab the company from under Rachel's nose. Holley couldn't let herself suffer for nothing.

A slight knock broke their silence as the assistant walked inside Rachel's office, who told Rachel and Holley that the companies made their decision to withdraw the capital after careful consideration and they needed Rachel's immediate confirmation.

Upon hearing the news, Rachel turned to Holley immediately. "I know that you have just come back, so I shouldn't disturb you with these things, but now the company is in great danger. If there is no investment, it might even face a crisis of bankruptcy. All these companies planning to withdraw their capital only trust you. So I hope you can deal with this issue as soon as possible. Can you, Holley?" Rachel asked.

Holley just nodded. Listening to how Rachel explained it, she realized how serious the issue was. So she came back to her office immediately and started to contact those companies to work out a solution. Although she was exhausted, thinking that her final purpose was the Tarsan Corporation, she still had to cheer up and fight head on. If the corporation went bankrupt, she would have nothing.

Holley was fully consumed by her task that she made phone calls the entire morning. She had a spark in her throat, but at last, she managed to make their business partners backtrack their decision to withdraw the capital.
