Chapter 281 Unbelievable

David had expected that the noise would attract Rachel’s attention. He had even thought of what to say

to pacify her.

To his surprise, Rachel chose not to say anything. “Remember to eat on time.”

“I’ll be very busy for the next few days. I might not be able to read your phone messages. Don’t worry.

I’ll get home as soon as I can.”

“Okay.” Rachel covered her face partially with the blanket. Only her eyes were visible.

“Good night.”

“Good night.”

After hanging up, Rachel lay on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She was certain that she was not hearing things when she heard someone asking for his life to be

spared.

However, she selfishly thought the other party must have committed an unpardonable sin to make

David deal with him so viciously.

That night, Rachel had a dream.

She was back to where she was that night five years ago, where the streets. were raining with bullets.

People were shouting in panic everywhere, and the

air was filled with the thick smell of blood.

However, she was resting peacefully in someone’s embrace.

The man whispered in her ear, “Don’t be afraid…”

In the extremely dim environment, Rachel could vaguely see the outline of

the man’s face.

She desperately wanted to see the man’s face clearly, but she could not.

Just then, her phone rang.

Rachel was rudely awakened from her dream.

Instinctively, she reached for the phone on the bedside table.

As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard Mary’s voice from the other end of the phone. “Rae–

Rae, I need your help urgently!”

Rachel was woken up by Mary for a trivial matter. Soon, she found herself in a mall.

Mr. Zane’s wife was hosting a charity ball on Friday night.

However, Mary had not found anything she fancied to wear to the ball. “Didn’t you have one made in

Paris?” Rachel gave a huge yawn.

“The shipment was delayed for some reason.” Mary looked at Rachel’s listless appearance and

suddenly became excited. Her eyes flickered with a knowing look. “Did you have a very intense battle

last night?”

Rachel glared at her angrily. “Thanks to you, I stayed up all night to revise the draft design.”

Hearing her answer, Mary rolled her eyes. “You got me excited for nothing.” “You’ve been quite well–

behaved recently.” Rachel’s lips curled into a

mischievous smile. “Why haven’t you been bringing your little brothers out for some fun lately?”

Mary blinked innocently. “Rachel, I’m a dignified young lady from a wealthy family. I’m innocent, and my

feelings are as pure as snow. Don’t slander me.”

Rachel forced a smile. “What nonsense! Anyone who hears this will find it unbelievable.”

As they spoke, the two of them walked into a clothing store.

Rachel crossed her arms and looked at the gowns in front of her disapprovingly.

Suddenly, she noticed a man’s suit created by an haute couture designer in the shop.

The black suit fabric had intricate embroideries of the sun, moon, and stars which looked very lifelike.

The design was subtle.

David’s face flashed across her mind as soon as she caught sight of the suit.

His calm and reserved temperament matched the suit very well.

They had known each other for so long, but Rachel had never given anything to David.

“Ma’am, this is a limited edition set, and it’s the world’s first batch. There is only one piece in Seaxas.”

The salesgirl smiled as she introduced the suit to

Rachel.

The design was unique, and Rachel felt that it would suit David.

“Can you…”

“I want this!” Rachel heard the voice declare loudly from behind.
