Advertisement
Rachel went to her room after coming back and quickly fell asleep as she was too tired. Charles and Jamie were so proud of their daughter that they wanted to celebrate it so while she was sleeping, they began to prepare a surprise for her. Now that she was too exhausted and had some time to sleep, she slept for the whole day.
Next morning the news channels were filled with the reports of Rachel's success and she was the headline on the front page of the newspapers. She became a viral topic of discussion and was of the top search. Everyone was so I interested in her life now and even her beauty and youth attracted so much attention. After she woke up she was too hungry that she went downstairs looking for her mother rubbing her eyes "Mom, I am hungry."
As soon as she said that she heard many people laughing and she finally opened her eyes to see that all her family members had gathered there and were already eating happily. The house was beautifully decorated and she looked around to take in what she was seeing as she was still in half asleep state. After a while when she was still looking confused Jamie said "Come down and have breakfast with us, you have just been sleeping the whole day and this decorations is because we are going to celebrate your victory."
Rachel smiled and said "It's so good to see you."
Then she went to the table and joined them for the breakfast which was enjoyed very well. At last Charles asked "You still have to tell me how you did that."
Rachel smiled "I have been keeping an eye on this company for a long time and when they started working, I knew they were up to no good so I took small steps initially just to let that person know that I was aware of his existence. As I did that I was expecting him to make some mistake but he was too smart not to do that. I knew that a time would come that he will attack our company vigorously and try to buy the shares of our company.
First to protect the shares, I started saving and making extra money I had the cost investigated that he was going to pay and after he dealt with the person I used the internet to threaten that person and also increase the money a little. This way I had the shares that were not in good hands and at the risk of being lost.

Later I observed his tactics of attacking our company and then I counter attacked but just did not let the results be shown until the last minute. It also gave me the time to get hold of all the unworthy people and now even the high parts of our company are protected."
Everyone sitting there was speechless at how this little girl's brain worked while Jamie said with tears in her eyes "I am so lucky to have you as my daughter."
She hugged her mother "I am the lucky one to have such great people around me."
After that they had their meal peacefully, most of the time it was that Rachel was being praised. After the meal she went to her room to take a shower but before that she had a quick look at her phone because she was confused as to why had nobody called her after such a big news. As to her knowledge there must be may of her business partners wanting to talk to her. As she picked up her phone, she realized that it had been switched off so she quickly put it on charge and while it was being charged she went to take a bath. She enjoyed talking the bath in her bath tub as it had almost been a month that she had done this. As she was always in a hurry she would take a quick shower but now that she had time she utilized it to enjoy herself for a while. As she got out of the tub, she heard her phone ringing so she quickly wiped herself and tied a bathrobe to rush outside. It was the person she had been recently working with so she quickly picked up the call "Hello Mr. Bain, I hope everything is good."
He had a worried tone "Thank goodness you picked up the call or I was going to rush to your country to check if anything was wrong."
Rachel smiled "You flatter me, Mr. Bain."
He then said "Where were you, your phone had been switched off for too long."
"I am sorry, it ran out of battery before I fell asleep so I didn't receive any calls."
He sighed "That's good then, I just wished to let you know that the effort you put in was so good that within a day you have reached great heights here. I am really proud to be working with you."

"Thank you for your compliment Mr. Bain and I will be visiting very soon to have a look at the conditions of my company and then we can talk further about the project."
He immediately agreed "Yes you should do that as soon as possible, I will be waiting."
"Yes Mr. Bain, once I have solved everything here, I will come there to complete the unfinished business."
Before she could have any more conversation, a person barged into the door and should "What the...."
Rachel quickly pushed him to the wall by placing a hand on his mouth to stop him from talking and then glared at him.
She heard the voice on the phone "Is there a problem."
"No, everything is perfect so if there is nothing else, I think I should hang up."
"Alright then, goodbye and take care of yourself."
"Thank you Mr. Bain, you too take care of yourself."
Saying this she ended the call and released Oliver "Are you insane, can't you check that I was talking on the phone."
He looked at her in surprise "Woman, you are too strong to be true."
Rachel turned around "Shut up"
He then came back to his senses "Wait I was here to fight with you, are you crazy how can you turn off your phone like that I was so worried that I had to complete my work quickly and rush here."
Rachel's heart melted at his gesture and she hugged her "Thank you, you are the sweetest friend I have."
His tone softened a little as he said "Now you are trying to butter me up, you can't do that."
Rachel looked at his face and smiled "Look at you, how easy it is to melt your heart."
He showed her his angry face "It is only you who can use these methods on me."
Rachel smiled and said "It's good that you have come now, my parents are holding a party for me tonight, you must attend."
He smiled "How can I miss it?"
After they were done talking, it was then that Rachel realised that she was in a bathrobe and she looked at him angrily "Wait! How can you enter a girls room without even knocking you idiot."
He face was flushed red as he looked at her freshly bathed exposed body. It was still reddish and his face heated up. Rachel see his gaze wander and flicked his head "Get out of my room."
He didn't say another word and rushed out with his heart throbbing in his chest as he thought to himself 'How can I give you up?'
When he was just outside the door, Rachel said "Invite your parents too."
"Hmm, I will leave first then."
"Okay."
As he left, Rachel checked her phone and saw that she had many missed calls so she called all the numbers one by one and finally it was an unknown number that she called at last but before she could say anything the other person said "Finally I get to talk to the almighty Miss Cullen."
Rachel was confused but she said with her cold voice "May I know who this is?"
He laughed "You may but for that you will have to invite me to you party tonight."
Rachel replied "You make me laugh at your shamelessness as you want to invite yourself to my party."
"I can assure you that you are looking forward to meeting me as much as I am interested in meeting you."
"In that case, you must tell me who you are?"
"Are you scared, I will kidnap you?"
"You will be killed even before you can lay a hand on me."
He laughed "I dare not doubt your capabilities but I still need an answer."
"Sure, I also want to see the person who had me loose my sleep for so long."
"That's great, I will see you tonight."
"Sure you will"
After she hung up the call she changed her clothes and went downstairs to the kitchen where her mother was busy working, she asked politely "Mom do you need any help."
Jamie rolled her eyes "Your best help will be to stay as far away from the kitchen as yoy can, I don't want to turn this precious thing into a mess."
Rachel laughed and went out of the kitchen "Alright I will stay away."
Jessica rushed into the kitchen "He is coming tonight."
