At noon, Rachel and the others arrived at Titia, the venue of the Real Estate Summit.
The three-hour flight gave Rachel a lot of time to rest. She was no longer as listless as she was after getting off the plane.
This time, Rachel brought a total of nine team members. They walked out of the airport in a grandiose manner.
Titia had a tropical ocean monsoon climate. The hot air that hit their faces carried a humidity that stuck on their skin, making them feel inexplicably irritated.
Chris was carrying Rachel’s luggage. Rachel followed behind the group lazily.
Seeing her fall behind, Linda slowed down and deliberately waited for a moment. “Ms. Grey, the car arranged by the person in charge is in the parking lot of Area A.”
Rachel nodded.
The group walked out of the airport and got into the car. After a 40-minute drive, they arrived at the hotel.
After everyone settled the procedures to check in, Linda looked at everyone. “All of you have worked hard, You can move around freely after a short rest. Gather in the hall tomorrow morning. Please prepare the things on hand as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, excitement appeared on everyone’s faces. They suppressed the ecstasy in their hearts and dragged their suitcases into the elevator in groups.
While Linda was briefing everyone, Rachel had already arrived at her room. She threw himself onto the soft bed and closed her eyes
to rest.
After Chris packed her things, she looked at Rachel lying on the bed and frowned imperceptibly.
They were all adults. Looking at Rachel’s current state, it was obvious what she had experienced last night.
However, she did not expect David to be so unrestrained in such matters.
Looking at the dark circles under Rachel’s eyes, it was obvious that she had been up all night.
Chris looked at Rachel and asked respectfully, “Miss Grey, do you want to eat something?”
Rachel, who was lying on the bed, was too lazy to move. She did not want to get up now that she was on the bed. “I don’t have much of an appetite. You can go and eat first.”
Chris wanted to persuade her, but she pursed her lips and finally turned to leave when she thought of the dark circles under Rachel’s
eyes,
As the door closed, Rachel’s consciousness, which was barely holding on, instantly dissipated. She fell into a deep sleep.
Buzz! Buzz!
The sound of the phone vibrating pulled Rachel out of her slumber.
Her slightly furrowed brows revealed a hint of frustration. She lazily turned over and took her phone from the bedside table. Her fingertips slid across the screen to answer the call. “Hello?”
There was a hint of fatigue in her cold voice.
On the other end of the line, Vulture frowned. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Rachel was slightly stunned when she heard his voice. After calming down, she picked up the glass of water on the bedside table and took a sip. She moistened her throat and said again, “No, I just woke up.”
“You just woke up?” Vulture glanced at the time. “Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to sleep at night?”
Rachel was too lazy to explain. Besides, there was no way to explain such a thing. She simply changed the topic. “What’s the
matter?”
Vulture chuckled and smiled mysteriously. “I’m at Seaxas. Hurry up and welcome me! What delicious food and fun things do you have in Seaxas? Bring me out to have a good time tonight!”
Rachel looked at the night scenery outside the window and said expressionlessly, “I’m in Titia.”
Vulture was speechless.
After a long while, he secretly gritted his teeth. “Twelve, you’re heartless! I came all the way here to seek refuge with you, but you didn’t even tell me that you’re going to stand me up?”
“I guess you’ll find any reason to blame me if you want to.”
Vulture was speechless again.
The corners of Rachel’s lips curled up slightly, and there was a faint smile at the corners of her eyes. “Lone Wolf is still in the private hospital under the Stellar Corporation. Go and meet him first. I’ll arrange the rest.”
“At least you have a conscience.” Vulture snorted arrogantly. He paused for a moment and spoke again, “By the way, what did the hospital say about Lone Wolf’s injury? I asked him, but he refused to say anything. I guess he was defeated by Ronnie Diekens this time. His young heart has been traumatized.” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Rachel said, “It’s nothing serious. It’ll take some time to recover. Nothing will happen to him if he takes the time to recuperate.”
Actually, doctor had checked Lone Wolf’s injuries. At that time, the tendons in his hands and feet had been severed. Fortunately, he was sent to the hospital in time. Otherwise, he would have been crippled.
The reason why he hid it from Vulture was firstly because Lone Wolf was treated in time and did not cause any irreparable damage. Secondly, with Vulture’s fiery temper, he would look for Ronnie to settle the score if he knew that Lone Wolf had suffered such a huge loss.
For Ronnie to be able to gain a foothold in Seaxas in such a short time and build up this much strength, his methods must be extraordinary.
In addition, he had been fighting with David openly for many years, but he was still so active. They must not underestimate the power he had.
The existence of the Red Flame Action Team was already feared by others. It would be really harmful if they faced a strong enemy.
The two of them chatted for 15 minutes until Chris returned to the room.
She placed the food she brought back on the table. “Miss Grey, eat something first.”
“Okay,” Rachel replied.
She lifted the blanket and got up. Her legs went weak and she almost fell back onto the bed. Fortunately, she was quick enough to grab the end of the bed to remain upright.
After a simple meal, she pushed open the glass doors and windows of the balcony and sat on the hammock rattan chair, looking at the bright moon in the sky.
Just like that, a simple night passed.
The next morning, the Real Estate Summit officially began.
Hundreds of companies participated in the summit.
Not only were there local companies, but there were also many overseas groups.
At this moment, the conference room, which could hold more than a thousand people, was packed.
The meeting officially began at eight in the morning.
The media reporters were ready to attack.
Under the guidance of the hostess, the organizer’s delegation walked up to the podium from the side door.
As everyone took their seats, Rachel immediately saw Noah sitting in
As if sensing something, Noah raised his head and looked over.
Their gazes met, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips. Then, he looked away and talked to the person beside him.
The organizer’s representative stood on the podium and spoke. When he mentioned they were going to establish a strategic partnership with the companies at the summit, it immediately caused a considerable commotion below the stage.
“No wonder a well-known overseas company appeared at the summit. So it’s to reach a strategic partnership.”
“Don’t underestimate this summit. Do you see the man sitting in the middle? I heard that his background is not simple. You won’t have to worry about money in the future if you manage to get his recognition.”
Hearing the discussions that followed, Rachel lowered her gaze and looked at the information in her hand. Her red lips curled into a faint and cold smile.
