Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Rachel and Daniel's conversation was interrupted by an unpleasant voice that came out of nowhere.

Curiously, both Rachel and Daniel turned their heads to find out who it was, and that was when Daniel saw Patrick.

"When you said you were having dinner with a friend, did you mean Patrick Yan?" asked Daniel. He frowned and looked into Rachel's eyes waiting for her reply.

During the years he had worked for Hiram, Daniel had met most of his friends and enemies; Patrick was one of the enemies. Daniel was particularly impressed with Patrick because of his annoying nature, that was, his interest in taking other people's favorites.

Rachel shook her head and stood up. She turned to Patrick and said, "That was an exquisite dinner, but I cannot have another bite. I came out for some fresh air. Where is Celine?"

"She's waiting for you inside, " replied Patrick with a smile. He walked towards Rachel and when he got closer, he saw Daniel sitting opposite to Rachel. The smile on his face froze for a moment.

"Long time no see, Mr. Yan, "

Said Daniel as he stood up to greet Patrick.

Patrick nodded at Daniel and replied, "It has been a long time. How do you do, Mr. Zhuo?"

Daniel came from a humble family. In the recent years, his work with Hiram had earned him his noteworthy reputation amongst his peers. Together, they had obtained quite a lot of significant achievements in their fields. However, in the eyes of some people, Daniel was not their peer, but merely Hiram's follower.

"Look at the time, it's getting late; are we all done with our dinner? Mr. Yan, thank you for this wonderful dinner, but Celine and I would like to excuse ourselves for the night. We'd better go home now, " Rachel interrupted, when she noticed that the atmosphere in the room had turned brittle.

Patrick replied to her without hesitation, "Okay, then I'll go and fetch my car. Wait here."

"No, I mean we can go home by ourselves. Besides, we're going in the other direction. We don't want to bother you. I'm just going to go and get Celine; see you later." Rachel waved her hand to bid farewell to the both of them.

"It's no trouble at all, it would be my pleasure. I can't let you ladies go home by yourselves at this hour. It's not my style." Patrick raised his eye-brows and insisted, earnestly.

"Thank you, Mr. Yan, but our place is going to be out of your way. It'll be an unnecessary inconvenience. I'm just going to find Celine now." Rachel turned around and walked away, to look for Celine.

When Rachel and Celine came out together, Patrick was waiting for them at the door.

Daniel was out too.
