Have I Told You Lately

As it was difficult for her to push him away when she lied down, her struggle had come to no avail. Kenneth kissed her even harder, he sucked her lips as if he was having some strong emotions. Feeling annoyed, Rachel gave him a strong bite. Kenneth frowned and released her in response. Rachel gave him a hard push from beneath and took a deep breath. She gritted her teeth and said sarcastically due to embarrassment, "Kenneth Shawn, you're a real man bullying a patient." Kenneth stood straight. He licked his dry lips and smiled lightly. "Whether I'm a real man or not, I thought you've truly experienced it three years ago."

Rachel fell into silence. Kenneth felt that he might have been too harsh on her and afraid that she would not sleep well, he no longer wanted to waste her time. "Have a sleep." The torture Rachel had for the whole night finally disappeared after he left. She played dead under the blanket and fell deeply asleep after closing her eyes and lying for a while.

Miles and Magi returned to City N the next morning and Rachel was brought back to the hotel by Kenneth after getting discharged. Kenneth originally wanted to let her have some rest before going to Dragon Age in the afternoon, yet Rachel was unhappy whenever she saw him, and she always went against him, therefore their plan was changed to morning. Rachel knew very well that she was unable to escape anyway, therefore she followed him all the way to Dragon Age after changing her clothes.

In front of the Dragon Age Parliament which was situated at the very center of the Sci-Tech Park, Rachel got out of Kenneth's car. She was wearing formal clothes and little makeup. Her body figure did not look slim but symmetrical, at least her bulging tummy was hidden. Emotions were emotions, she was still rational and it was necessary to protect Vantage Inc.'s reputation. Kenneth was wearing an immaculate ironed dark suit and he let out a sense of abstinence and elegance. There was no expression on his handsome face but he had paid full attention to the woman beside him from the corner of his eyes.

As they walked into the parliament, the security guards and front desk staff quickly greeted with deference. "President Shawn." Kenneth gave a short reply and looked towards Rachel. "The lift is right there." Emotions were barely discerned from his tone of voice, but his voice was still soft enough to make both parties looked up and glimpsed at them at the same time. Their eyes then fell onto Rachel. Her dressing was average and it was obvious she did not look like someone powerful in the company. But who else could make their president being that courteous?

Rachel was certainly sensitive enough to sense the aberrance from the people around her. She glimpsed at Kenneth and suddenly let out a polite smile. "Please go first, President Shawn." Her voice was just audible for them to hear. Kenneth stared at her and did not utter any word. As if he had become his usual aloof self, he walked towards the lift.

The moment the door of the lift was closed, the three ladies at the front desk quickly gossiped while lowering their voice. "Did you notice President Shawn being gentle when he spoke just now? Who's that lady just now?" He was not very gentle in fact, yet it was easy to tell the difference when compared to his usual behavior. One of them frowned and recalled. "I feel like I've seen her before. Has she come here back then?"

"Maybe she's the representative of a company? But being able to be welcomed by President Shawn himself, she must be somebody."

"Oh! Now I remember!" Another lady suddenly exclaimed. Her voice was too loud that she had attracted the attention of the security guards at the entrance. She then immediately recovered her working posture and whispered, "She seems to be the manager of an internet company, Miss Lewis. She's come here once back then, it was Miss Torres who welcomed her."

"So she's only a manager of a small company?" The other two were slightly in disbelief. Yet someone started to sigh when Sabrina was mentioned. "Is it because Miss Torres has done anything wrong that she's transferred to the branch by President Shawn?"

"Who knows. Miss Torres had worked for President Shawn for several years, something must have happened when she was transferred all of a sudden." If it was not because of Kenneth looking frigid all the time, they would almost suspect him having chemistry with Sabrina. After all, Sabrina looked pretty and had a nice body. Her family background was powerful too and she was suitable to become the woman in the rumor.

Rachel followed Kenneth all the way to the top floor from the lift and they headed straight towards the president office. It was her first time truly entering the office. She had left when she only reached the entrance last time. The office looked more majestic than she thought. However, she supposed she must be the only one who had no idea that her husband had run such a big company after they had gotten married for three years.

She let out a sarcastic smile and it was captured by Kenneth's eyes. He lifted his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?" Rachel retrieved her smile at once and shook her head. "Nothing."
