Rachel was rendered speechless.
Vincent seemed in such a good mood a while ago. I don't believe that he is bankrupt.
Hmph! Who knows what devious tricks he is up to this time to get his mother's heirloom?
"Show me the message informing you that your accounts have been frozen," Rachel requested straightaway.
Vincent had nothing to show.
He could not search for one online as Rachel was watching him.
That also made it difficult for him to contact his subordinate to fabricate one for him.
As Vincent was still hesitating, Rachel said, "Stop pretending. Don't even dream of tricking me! I won't fall for it!"
Vincent was rendered speechless.
Nothing gets through this woman!
He was on the verge of losing his temper and wanted to argue.
However, he considered and decided to resist it.
It was unwise to argue with the bad-tempered Rachel.
Vincent raised his hands and said, "It's not my intention to trick you. Instead, I sincerely request that you let me stay. Can you please let me stay here for Elisa's sake?"
He humbled himself as he requested.
Rachel was rendered speechless.
She frowned in confusion. "What does Elisa have to do with this?"
Vincent answered, "Gareth is my best friend. Since Gareth and Elisa were married, you and I are closely connected. Furthermore, Elisa would never abandon someone in need. Rachel, please take me in. Once I resolve the conflict with my father, I will reward you."
He thumped his chest as he spoke and promised solemnly.
However, Rachel did not need the reward he offered.
She glanced at the time and saw it was past one in the morning.
However, he did not want to ruin Gareth's best chance to spend time alone with Elisa.
If I were to go to Moranta during this critical time, I might be interrupting something between Gareth and Elisa.
No, I can't do that.
Gareth will kill me.
Therefore, he refused to give Rachel any chance to contact Gareth.
He feigned ignorance and said, "Gareth and Elisa are in Moranta for an important business. Why should we go there?"
"You asked why we should go? Why do you think I want to go there? Gareth is a scoundrel! He has divorced Liz. Why does he keep pestering her? Of course, I have to go. How can I do nothing and let him snatch her away? I can't let him hurt Elisa again!"
Rachel became agitated.
She hated Gareth for what he did. Thus, talking about him only made her even angrier.
