RachelI felt like time was running out for me. I said I would try to seduce Chase but I was going nowhere.I had not implemented a concrete plan.I yawned as I woke up from the bed.Yesterday, I and Norman came back late. I didn't want to disturb my mother so I pushed the talk I was going to have with her to today.She hadn't really taught me anything.I don't know if the dress I bought worked like I wanted it to. Chase didn't make any specific comments about the dress.Now, the dress had become something I would discard because of Ted and the bad memory attached to it.I freshened up and I headed downstairs.My mother had already prepared breakfast and the rest of the family was sitting at the dining table."I wanted to send Norman to fetch you before." My mother said before she glared at my dressing, "What are you wearing?"I chuckled before I took my seat."Mother. In my own house, being comfortable is key." I said as I dragged my plate closer to me.I was just wearing a simple t-

RachelI looked towards the source of the sneering voice and I saw a female approaching me.She was dressed in a wine blouse and a black skirt. Her attire outlined her figure.I didn't even know if it was natural but her cleavage was showing."Patricia, why are you here?" The receptionist asked as she returned my phone to me.I accepted my phone and stared at the new arrival.I didn't want to be rude so I didn't reply to her previous comment about me.She might turn out to be my coworker in the nearest future. I did not want to cultivate any bad blood between us.Still, I looked down at my dressing and I checked her getup again.Since I didn't want to embarrass Chase, I made sure I only exploited the limits of modesty in my dressing.My clothes didn't show any private body parts but it still showed my charm.I don't know how Patricia got the idea that I was here to seduce a client. If those words were said about her, I would be convinced.I didn't mean to judge but her getup made her

RachelThe next day was as tedious as ever. Chase refused to give me any leeway.He disregarded the relationship between us."Photocopy these papers for me. Three copies for each page." Chase said before he handed a set of papers to me.I grumbled softly.I made sure it wasn't loud but I expressed my displeasure."You are not cutting me some slack at all." I said as I clutched the papers.I was getting nowhere with Chase. I did all I could.I dressed well.I made sure I made slight touches in the boundaries of decency as a way to tempt him.I try every way to showcase my good side.Still, I was getting zero response from him.His dark eyes would look at me with a devouring gaze sometimes. That was all I could get and it didn't prove anything.The relationship between I and Chase needed a strong catalyst to push it forward.I needed something tangible. Dark gazes would get me nowhere.I was sad and happy that my charms didn't really work on him.I was sad that he wasn't responding to m

RachelShe was trying to use the opinions of the other people here to force me to drink. "It has nothing to do with her." I said calmly. I did not reach out for the glass cup even with her grim face. "Are you sure?" She did not wait for me to answer before she continued, "You might not want to accept the drink we gave because I am friends with Patricia." I tucked my phone into my pockets, "Why would I not be sure? You are friends with Patricia doesn't mean I would hold a grudge with you for what she did." Polly perked up after she heard my words. It was like she was injected with adrenaline. She was similar to a cat that got an hidden rat. "So, you mean you have been holding grudges with Patricia? Is that why you refused to accept the drink?" Polly said in a rush. I shook my head. Polly was just going round and round. She was repeating what I had already replied to. She was right about the fact that I did not want to accept the drink she poured because of Patricia. Patricia

RachelIt felt like I was going in and out of consciousness.When I came to, I saw that I was lying on Chase.My whole body was basically hanging off him.The thing that made my heart beat with intense joy was the fact that he didn't push me away.That means he felt something.The brief unconscious spree I had did nothing to improve my condition.I was still feeling hot.No. The keyword is heat.I was still feeling intense heat flowing through my nerves, skin and body.The drug was still working its charms.I couldn't focus. All I could concentrate on was thoughts of Chase.Everything I felt was magnified.A man wearing a lab coat was standing in front of Chase.The man's golden framed glasses dropped but he pushed it back into position with his finger."Mr Williams, I have gotten the results from the test I ran on Miss Rachel." The man said.From his words, I knew he was a doctor.It seemed like Chase wanted to treat whatever Patricia and her cohorts spiked my drink with.I hugged Ch
