Rachel rolled her eyes and tossed her phone aside before continuing her artwork.
Soon, waves of screams echoed from the ground floor of Chapman Group building.
Rachel furrowed her brows and plugged her ears with earphones. She then returned her attention to the artwork with music played on her phone.
The moment the door opened, everyone including Wilhemina, stood up in excitement and admiration.
They held up their hair, trying to present the best version of themselves to the visitor.
However, even with all the noise, Rachel gave no response. She just sat in her workroom, listening to her music while drawing her design.
Eventually, Wilhemina and the rest had their smiles turned into a jealous, rageful scowl.
A pair of expensive leather shoes stepped into Rachel's workroom and stopped.
Immediately after, a cold hand reached out and pulled out Rachel's earphone.
Rachel raised her chin irritatedly. "Wilhemina, I warned you..."
In the next room, Wilhemina was upset about being blamed.
Seeing Edward's darkened face, Rachel was a little stunned.
"Edward? Weren’t you in an accident?"
...
Edward hardened his face and looked at Rachel with an insincere smile. "Who said I got into an accident?"
Rachel rolled her eyes. "So why are you here? If there's nothing serious, please leave, I've got work to do."
Edward pointed at the phone on the table. "Work? Who told you you're allowed to hang up on me when you're working? Especially when I'm your client?"
Rachel held her forehead in her hand. "It's an unknown number, why would I pick up?"
Edward nodded. "You're right, very sensible."
Rachel immediately nodded. "So..."
'You should leave!'
Rachel could barely get a word out before Edward's voice muted hers. "So you better memorize my number starting from today! If you don't, I will reduce your remuneration!"
Rachel's face darkened as she slammed on her table and stood up. "Edward, how can you reduce my pay just like that?!"
"Because I am the client. You have three minutes to memorize my phone number, or else..."
Edward nodded with his eyes narrowed to a slit.
Hence Rachel shifted her mouth to the side and picked up her phone, memorizing the number diligently.
After taking a glance at his wristwatch, Edward put it down. "Time's up."
Rachel clenched her jaw and placed her phone back onto the table. "075xxxx143."
A blush crept up on her face as she stifled a comment. 'Just what does he want to say with the final three digits?!'
'143, I love you?!'
Edward nodded in amusement. "Not bad, you passed."
Rachel sighed in relief and pointed at the door. "If that's the case, please leave my office soon, President Edward Bluemel."
