My Crazy Rich - Ard

Chapter 39: It's Rachel

After finishing accompanying the grieving Ramon, Richard then chose to go home to Rachel's apartment. She couldn't possibly invite Ramon to stay with her, while she was hitching a ride with Rachel herself because the punishment wasn't over.

If Richard goes home to headquarters his emotions will get worse later. Moreover, he still has not decided to release Hanna, or just kill her all together.

With a lethargic face and a black coat on his shoulders, Richard stepped into the apartment. The smell of burning and spreading smoke billows welcomed his arrival so densely, suddenly making Richard panic.

Could it be that he forgot to turn off the stove when he left last night?

Richard rushed to the kitchen, unfortunately it was not as he had imagined. The first thing she saw was not a fire caused by an electrical short circuit or forgot to turn off the stove, but the figure of Rachel with an apron in the middle body coughed due to the thick smoke on the pot she made.

“Rachel.” The call from Richard made Rachel look back. The woman closed her nose and coughed because of the thick smoke she was causing.

Until not long ago, smoke control sensors set off an alarm sound, began to sound so loud, and sprinklers that function to extinguish the fire automatically discharge water from the pipe because it detects the presence of fire.

“What are you doing?” Richard walked towards Rachel. He turned off the stove that lit up so large that it made the pot Rachel was currently using turn a deep black color. Richard placed both hands on his waist and stared intently at the woman who was now clad in black stains all over her body and face.

Intentions want to cook meat, what power it turns out all is not as easy as Rachel imagined. It all ended in vain because no food was saved. Everything became too mature, it even got worse after several tries and only ended up in the trash.  Rachel could only laugh a little, realizing her stupidity this time around.

“I was going to make you food. But, it seems I am not talented in the kitchen,” said Rachel smiling like a child who tried to persuade her parents not to scold her.

The splashing of water was now wetting the bodies of the two. Not long after, the apartment management came to their place. Rachel could only sit in the kitchen chair with a towel wrapped around her, while Richard tried to apologize and take responsibility for the commotion that occurred at that time.

After all the problems were solved well, Richard then closed the door. She looked back at Rachel who was still sitting in her position with an innocent face. That certainly made Richard massage his own temple. When he wanted to rest in peace, now he was again faced with a messy residential condition.

“Go clean your body first! Then help me clean this place. Just a day you I lived alone, but you've managed to turn this place into a flying dutchman ship.”

Rachel turned her lips forward in annoyance. How did he know it was going to be like this. It turned out that cooking wasn't as easy as she had played before in the drama. In part why all this time his father was too pampering him, so he was really stupid in terms of the kitchen.

“I wanted to make you food. Remembering this morning you said starve, I'll be here soon." For a moment Rachel cleared her throat realizing the mistake in her sentence. "But don't be confident just yet, not because I'm considerate. I just don't want any news to cover a man dying of starvation in an apartment. That's not very cool. But it turns out you're visiting the funeral of your coworker.”

Richard spontaneously glanced sharply at Rachel, that distinct and extremely terrifying gaze making Rachel slightly shudder at it. Could it be that the reason he gave sounded so absurd? Why was Richard's expression so scary.

Rachel did know the sad news that befell one of Ddays Holding's employees. Despite her low position, they made an announcement at the group of employees, and Rachel had just joined the group by chance.

Richard, who was left alone, then circulated his gaze in all directions. He saw the current state of the kitchen could only shake his head. How could a woman destroy a kitchen so badly in just the blink of an eye.

Richard again took his temples back then, it seemed like he had to actually contact the uncle to invite him to drink together and relieve the stress of today's events. It turned out that returning to this apartment was not the right choice for him.

“I'd better take a shower!” Feeling that his body was too wet, Richard chose to clean himself first.

After a while his body was refreshed, Rich took his phone and tried to contact his uncle while rubbing his wet hair using a small towel.

Once the call has no answer, the second call is still no answer, until the third call is still the same. “Where Uncle went these weeks,” muttered Rich put his phone back on the table and grabbed a greets dryer while looking in the mirror.

When Richard finished drying his hair, his phone rang. The uncle's name is on the screen. Immediately Richard shifted the green circle on the screen upwards and placed the flat object beside his ear.

“Ha-.’’

Not yet had Richard greet his uncle, the voice of someone across the call he did not know informed his uncle's current condition, like a thunderbolt jarring right in Richard's ears at this time. He froze silently, with both eyes perfectly widened.

“Not possible,” murmured softly.

Richard then held onto the table beside him, he felt his feet as if they were boneless at that moment. As much as Richard's energy trying to strengthen himself. He put down the phone with the severed connection with the body shaking violently. Rich's view now seemed blurry and empty. He immediately snatched back his phone and hurriedly stepped out of the room.

“You want to go again?” Rachel who had also just finished cleaning herself tried to ask, but did not get a response at all from Richard. The man instead walked in a hurry without heeding Rachel's presence. This caused the woman to be curious about what was going on with Richard.

Meanwhile, Rich who moved into the parking lot looked like a dazed person. However, quickly a car containing a woman stopped right next to him. “Come in!” said the woman.

The two then darted out of the apartment area, unexpectedly Rachel who was curious to see the two from the balcony. “Cih, who just picked him up? Is he still in touch with the gleeful aunts who lack caress out there? Just look at it later! I'll teach you a lesson"
