《Marriage of Benefits》Chapter 266 - Best friends
Advertisement
Rachel didn't say anything just started on the side with the same look, Robert followed his gaze and then his eyes narrowed at the man who was standing there staring back at her. He moved closer to Rachel and then whispered in her ear to gain her attention "Who is that?"
She was startled by this and looked around, she didn't want any trouble right now so she casually said "Who is who?"
A dangerous smile spread across his face, Rachel knew it was not a nice thing and she would get in trouble for it but to her surprise he didn't stretch the subject and said "Let's fly."
Rachel was relieved that he let go of the topic and so she nodded her head for him to begin flying. The smile never left his lips and the more she saw the, the more it scared her. He spoke to her very politely all the way there, his aura, his eyes and smile had turned a lot scarier and his polite tone was surely a way to suppress his anger. Rachel gulped and looked ahead of her, not sure where to look and what to say, she sat quietly in her seat only hoping that this was what he was like when he was flying.
Jessica was not in a distant place and it only took them 4 hours to reach there, Rachel had drifted off to sleep while staring ahead of her.
Robert landed directly on top of Jessica's villa, it had a special landing space as he looked at her sleeping face, he could not help but chuckle at how he had scared her some time ago and he enjoyed teasing her so much that he was not going to let go of the topic that easily. Right now he didn't want to wake her up so he picked her up in her arms and took her inside where Jessica almost bumped into him as she had come up to see what was going on, she looked surprised "What are you doing here?"
Robert signalled her to be quiet as he didn't want to disturb Rachel and without a word he walked into a nearby room, placing Rachel on the bed. Jessica was shocked that he entered her house like he owned this place but then that was right to, it was all his money after all.

Robert placed Rachel on the bed and then went outside to the living room to sit in his chair. Jessica followed him and sat next to him repeating her question "What are you doing here?"
Robert didn't speak for a while because he knew that if his sister was still here that meant that she still didn't trust him and according to her Kevin was still innocent. When he didn't speak, she continued speaking "You know I still don't trust you and talking about that how is she with you, did you perhaps kidnap her."
Robert laughed but then answered "Yes, I did."
Jessica's eyes widened in shock but then Robert moved to placed his chin on his hand still resting it on the armrest, he asked "I have always been there for you and I never let you feel lonely then why is it that you don't trust me."
Jessica could not look directly in his eyes as she spoke "Kevin seems like a nice person and they both..."
"Well he is not." he cut her because he could not bear to hear their names together, his tone was sharp and his eyes cold. This aura of his was enough to scare anyone in the world and so Jessica frozen on her spot listening to it.
He relaxed a little and then he explained "A lot of chaos was created while you were away and now Rachel knows a lot about her situation."
Jessica didn't speak as he continued to explain what had happened while she was not there. The expression on her face changed to a shocked one as she could not believe that all this really happened and in the end Robert said "We have come here because Rachel said that Mom could come here to manipulate you and use you for here wrong purposes so she said that we should talk to you and tell you the truth. She also wanted you to stay with us but then I told her that it would be more dangerous and that I will send you to a safer place and where I can keep an eye that you are safe."
Jessica smiled "She is truly my best friend to worry about me."
Robert smiled "She is indeed a great person."

Jessica laughed loudly at his words "It seems like you are hopelessly in love with her."
Robert didn't reply to that but just smiled at her again after that both of them chatted for a while when they heard footsteps of the floor where Rachel was sleeping. Thinking that it was an intruder, Robert ran upstairs to see Rachel moving in the corridors do he asked "What are you doing?"
She turned around and Robert was greeted by yet another expression of her as if she was lost, seeing him she smiled and said "Thank God, you are her, this place is so huge, I could not find you."
Robert smiled at her, she looked so adorable that he wanted to just hold her and squeeze her tightly, he then hugged her and said "I am here now come let go downstairs, Jessica must be waiting."
Rachel looked up to meet his his and she said excitedly "Let's go, I can't wait to meet her."
He smiled and took her downstairs and as soon as she saw Jessica, she ran towards her and hugged her tightly "I missed you so much."
Jessica hugged her back, tears filled her eyes "Me too"
Rachel then scolded her "I was so scared when you said you liked me, I would never let anything ruin our friendship."
Jessica smiled at her "I know although I like girls, you were always my best friend and I never even thought about anything like that with you."
Rachel's smile widened "I promise I will help you find the hottest girl on the planet and when all this is over, I am staying by your side always."
Jessica nodded when Robert spoke from behind her "You can not find the hottest one for her because I have kept that for myself."
Rachel blushed at his words and turned around to kiss him, Jessica rolled her eyes "Get a room, you two."
Rachel then went back to her best friend and began talking to her, they caught up on all the things they had missed about each other for all these months. Later Robert came to interrupt them "If you are done with your gossips we need to take Jessica out of here and then we need to return back too."
Jessica got up nodding her head, she said "You are right, let me get my things and then we can leave."
She left to get her things but was back very soon with everything packed. The three of them then left to a less crowded place which was well protected by Robert, he had his own safety measures, he had built this place for the time if ever they had an emergency crisis and they had to hide at a place, he had made sure no one would be able to find this place.
Both of them made sure that Jessica was comfortable and safe and before they left Robert said "If ever there is anything strange happening around you, just call me."
Jessica gave him a smile, nodding she said "Thank you"
Robert rubbed her head and gave her a hug before leaving the place.
Both of them then flew back to his castle and Rachel was too tired by now that she rushed into the washroom to take a hot bath.
She filled half the bathtub with hot water and the rest of it with cold water and then she mixed the salts to her bath that could help her relax. She then removed her clothes and stepped into the bathtub, she leaned against one side of the tub and rested her back to it, she leaned her head back and closed her eyes.
She could feel her body relax as soon as she rested inside it, she had her eyes closed and she was enjoying when Robert entered the washroom without making any noise.
He looked at her face and enjoyed the calmness on it and he so wanted to see her rile up at him, a wicked grin appeared on his lips and he slowly sat next to her in the tub, his movements were such that no one could ever know, when he came.
He slowly wrapped his arms around her and pulled her up into his lap and then kissed her neck. Rachel looked at him and a small smile formed on her lips "What are you doing here?"
Robert gave her a smile before he said "First I need to know who was that man?"
