She Is Not A Pretender

Mina turned and glared at the maids angrily. Her eyes were cold. The maids quickly stopped what they were doing and they left the garden. After they left, Mina turned to Rachel and yelled, "What's your problem, huh? Why are you doing all of this?"

Rachel was confused. "I don't understand you"

"Stop pretending, okay? I know what your plans are. You threatened uncle and Chad. isn't it? What else do you want? You want to take over everything?"

Rachel smiled and said, "Well, I am not a pretender like you. I don't pretend to get what I want. If I see I can't have it, I leave it, but you... What did you do?"

Mina's face glow in anger. "You..."

"Actually, I didn't force or threatened anybody just to stay in this mansion and i also don't want to stay here, but I have to because of Chad"

Mina took few steps forward and said, "Rachel, it's better you leave, or else..."

"Or else what?" Rachel was not going to allow just anybody bully her. "If you don't like me staying here, tell Chad or Mr Torres and if they let me go, I will leave"

Rachel dropped the hose, turned and left. Mina frown and clenched her fist.

At the sugar cane farm.

Rachel got down from the Maybach car and walked towards her mother and Johanna. When Johanna saw her, she ran to her and hugged her tightly.

"Rachel, I have missed you so much"

"I only spent a night there and you are already missing me?"

"But you are still going to spend a week there, right?" Johanna asked.

"Of course, but it's just a week and I'm doing everything for Chad. We will also be seeing each other in school"

"Okay. Let's go. We have a lot of things to do" Johanna pulled Rachel along with her.

Later in the evening, Rachel followed them home. When they got home, Mrs beltran prepared menudo for them and after they ate, they went to Rachel's room to pack some of her clothes. Johanna looked at Rachel and asked. "Is Mrs Torres and that bitch causing you trouble again?"

Rachel zipped her luggage and lifted it up. She turned her head to look at Johanna and said, "No, but they don't want me to stay there"

"If they cause you any trouble, tell me, okay?"

Rachel looked at her friend and smiled. "You don't have to worry, no one will bully your friend and of course, Chad is also there. He won't let anybody bully me"

"That's better"

Rachel smiled and carried her luggage out of her room.

"Rachel, I will miss you like crazy" Mrs beltran said and hugged her daughter. "Call me when you get there, okay?"

Rachel nodded. "I will, mom"

Mac came out of the car and helped Rachel put her luggage in the trunk. He opened the back seat door for her and bow. Rachel climbed into the car and waved goodbye at her mother and Johanna, then the car drove off.

At the Torres mansion.

The maids helped Rachel carry her luggage into her room. Rachel stood behind them and smiled, "Thank you"

The maids bowed and left.

Rachel lifted the luggage and put it on her bed, then she unzipped it and began to arrange the clothes in her wardrobe. After doing all of that, she was exhausted. The stress from working on the farm caught up with her. She went into the bathroom, undressed and put a robe on. She went into the bathroom for a shower. As she walked pass the mirror, she removed her robe and then she continued into the shower and turned on the hot water. She began soaping up her body. She was tired, so she moved slowly. She stood there with her eyes closed as the water continue to massage her body. When she was done showering, she picked up her robe, strolled into the bedroom and fell asleep.

Later at night.

They were all expecting Rachel to come out from her room to eat, but she didn't. Mr Torres and Chad were worried, then a young maid came to report to them that Rachel was already sleeping.

While they were eating, Mr Torres told Chad about the things that has happened in the company and the new shoes they just produced.

Next morning.

Rachel pushed open the door to Chad's bedroom. Chad was half naked as he stood right in front of the mirror. He has a broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His skin was white and his features was like refined craft. They were perfect.

Rachel was not expecting him to be half naked. He was only putting on a black pant and was about to wear his shirt. Rachel shouted in surprise and turned. Chad was also surprised to see Rachel in his room.

"Chad, why are you not putting on your shirt?"

Chad raised his eyebrows slightly. It seems this woman has forgotten that she is in his room not her room. Chad put on his shirt, turned and walked up to her. Rachel heard footsteps coming towards her and she turned around. His shirt was casually unbuttoned at the chest, his trouser high at the waist.

"Have you forgotten that you are in my room?"

Rachel raised her head to look at him and blinked many times. She opened her mouth to talk, but words wouldn't come out. She turned to leave, but Chad grabbed her arm and pulled her into his room, then he closed the door.

Rachel was stunned. Chad placed his hands on his hips and looked at her. His lips curled up into a smile as he approach her. Rachel gave him a puzzled look and stepped back a few feets and raised her arm. "Chad, why are you coming closer?"

Chad did not respond, but continued to smile.

"Chad, stop right there. I am warning you"

As the man approached her, she continued step backwards. Rachel continues to step backwards until her back lean up against the wall. He stood right in front of her and placed his hands flat on the wall on either side of her head. Rachel stared at his chest and swallowed hard, then she lifted her head to look at him.

"Why? Are you scared of me?" Chad asked and smiled.

She stuttered. "N-No... No, W-why should I be scared of you?"

Chad moved his face closer to her face and asked, "Really?"

"Chad, what are you doing?" her lower lip trembled as she said so.

Chad did not respond, but he continued to stare at her lips. Rachel gazed solemnly up into his eyes. Chad moved his face closer to hers again and his lips almost touching hers. Rachel turned her face to the other side and placed her hands on his chest. She tried to push him away, but he didn't budge.

"Chad, please," she begged.

Chad stared at her for few seconds before moving backwards. She gave him a hefty shove and he fell on the bed.

"Come downstairs. it's time for breakfast" she said and ran out of the room. Chad watched her back disappeared out of the room and chuckled.
