The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1088

Duncan wanted to defend himself, but when he saw the sullen look on Rachel's face, he stopped short. He answered, "Yes, Ms. Bai. I know."

"What are you waiting for? Get out! You are such a disappointment!" Rachel yelled. Duncan almost spoiled her entire plan. Rachel was tired of his stupid face.

After she gave Duncan a good dressing down, she decided to not stick to her original plan of meeting with Charles. Instead, she returned to her office and called Holley. "Holley, are you available now?"

"Do you need anything, Ms. Bai?" Holley asked.

"It's about Sheryl. Come to my office. I'll tell you everything," Rachel said. Her voice was filled with frustration.

"Today is your meeting with Mr. Lu, isn't it? Aren't you going to see him?" Holley asked. She knew that Rachel had been waiting for this meeting to happen.

"If everything had gone as per my plans, I would have met him today. But some issues have surfaced and we need to make changes in our plan. To avoid making things worse, I think it's best not to meet Charles before all these problems are solved," Rachel explained over the phone.

"If you have made up your mind, then I will be there right away," Holley replied, nodding.

"All right. I'll be waiting for you." Rachel hung up and frowned at the situation she was facing at the moment.

After so many years, Rachel had learnt her lesson. The reason why she had lost to Sheryl in the past was that she was not cautious enough. Now that she was finally back in the game, she didn't want to make the same mistakes again.

While Rachel was talking to Holley about Duncan's reckless decision in her office, their contact in Shining Company called Tarsan Corporation.

Rachel's secretary looked at her boss' angry face and knew at once that she had to cancel the appointment. She quickly apologized to Charles' secretary over the phone, and told her that their president had something urgent to deal with and would not be able to make it to the meeting with Charles. She asked his secretary for a rescheduling.

Rachel couldn't hear what Charles' secretary was saying, but she could tell from her secretary's embarrassed face that they must have been quite angry at the cancellation.

Holley understood everything that was happening very clearly. She teased, "If I'm not wrong, this is probably the first time that a client has dared to stand up to the prominent Charles Lu."

"He doesn't know who the president of Tarsan Corporation is now. And he is right to be mad. But if he knew that it's me, he'll realize that he has no right to be, because a no-show is nothing compared to what he has done to me!" Rachel sneered indifferently.

"I truly admire your resoluteness, Ms. Bai," Holley smiled. "When I work with you, I always feel hopeful about the future."
