It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 681

The next morning Rachel turned up at Leng Group, dressed enticingly and with delicate make-up. She walked in with confidence, still surprised at the size of Leng Group. She regretted leaving Duke years ago. Instead of Belinda, it was she who could have been Mrs. Leng.

Rachel always got what she wanted. She was convinced that she would win Duke over in the end. Seeing the way Belinda dressed, Rachel thought she was no more than an ordinary clerk. She didn't consider Belinda to be a threat. As a graduate from a prestigious university, Rachel had once worked for a successful company as a senior executive. She was certain that in comparison to Belinda, she would make a much better assistant to Duke.

She looked at the exclusive elevator for the CEO with greed, and imagined that one day she would be the one riding on it. Before she knew it, she was moving toward it. She was about to walk into the elevator when a guard stopped her. "Excuse me, Miss. This elevator is for the CEO only. Please take another one." It was a weekend. During busy times employees were asked to work on weekends as well. The guard wasn't surprised to see Rachel in the office building. Even the CEO had gotten to the office much earlier.

"Oh! Thank you, I didn't notice." Rachel humbly thanked the guard for reminding her, but she cursed him mentally. When she became the CEO's wife, she would sack the guard first. The day before, she had gotten the information that Duke would be in office on the weekend. So she had come too.

Rachel didn't mind that he was married. He could get a divorce, which was very common these days. She would do everything in her power to get Duke back.

Although smaller than FX International, Leng Group was a well-known enterprise that ranked among the top three in the city. The building had a lavish decor.

Rachel took another elevator and arrived on the top floor where Duke's office was located. Realizing that he had been avoiding her, she racked her brains on how to get to him. Eventually she managed to get into the Sales department of Leng Group. However, in such a big company, it was not easy to meet the top management. She had been recruited for a week, but she hadn't seen Duke even once so far. A rare opportunity had come up yesterday, but it was soon ruined by Belinda. She wouldn't miss another chance.

Duke had come to office to work on an important decision. Belinda wasn't feeling well and slept badly at night. She had fallen asleep in the morning. When Duke left for work, she was still sound asleep.

Like Edward, Duke preferred silence at work. His office was a long way from the secretary's. When he worked on weekends, he preferred to be alone. His assistants didn't disturb him unless there was a meeting. So when he heard the sharp knock on his office door, he was puzzled.

"Come in," he said, as he analyzed the plans on his computer. Rachel walked in and saw him focused on work. She gazed at him, caught in his charm. Men who worked hard were remarkably attractive. It was true.

"It's you. Why are you here?" Realizing that the person who had come in wasn't speaking, Duke looked up. He saw Rachel and stared at her grimly.

"I heard you would be working today, so I came to assist you. We can work together and finish earlier." Rachel smiled and walked closer. Duke was becoming an increasingly breathtaking man in her eyes. And she was becoming increasingly obsessed.
