She Is Always Complaining About Her

Mr Torres looked at Rachel in confusion. How can there be rats in her. "Rachel, is the rat still bothering you?"

Rachel turned her head to look at him and shook her head, "No. I think it has ran away, but I am not sure if it will still come back" she smiled and continued eating her food. She bit into the food quickly, too quickly and tried not to think of what Chad is doing to her.

Just then, she felt Chad's hand moved again. This time, he lifted her dress, moving his hand upwards on her thigh. Rachel could not tolerate him anymore. She slapped his hand away fiercely and stood up. "I am full. If you will excuse me, I will be going to my room"

Mr Torres looked up at her and her face was already red. He wanted to ask her why her face was like that, but she had already ran away. Chad smiled and watched Rachel's back disappear out of the dining room. He lowered his head to look at his hand and could still feel the warmth of her body.

Then, Mina understood who the rat Rachel was referring to is.

It's actually Chad!

Chad is the very big rat.

Mina wondered what he was actually doing to her that made her call him a rat? This two are getting too too close. Mina felt uncomfortable and jealous. She looked at Chad and he was still smiling.

Rachel ran into her room, closing the door behind her and tried to calm herself down. She dropped back on the bed and yanked the blanket over her head. Her mind flashed back to what Chad did in the dining room. Her face flushed again. That Chad dare flirt with her in front of others in the dining room.

When she thought of how seductive he was, she cursed him. "That stupid chad, I am going to teach him a lesson. The one he will never forget"

"Really? What lesson are you going to teach him?"

Rachel was stunned. She lifted the covers off her face.

"You..." she really did not know what to say. Chad was leaning against the door post with his legs crossed and a smile on his lips.

"What are you doing here?" she asked angrily.

He grinned. "Why can't I be here? This is my mansion, so I can stay anywhere i like"

Rachel took a pillow beside her and threw it angrily at him, and he caught it before it could harm him. Chad smiled and walked in. Rachel jumped out of bed. "Get out!"

She yelled and pushed him. Chad laughed and allowed her to push him out of her room. She slammed the door and locked it against him. She lean against the door and her heart beat raced faster.

The nerve of him to follow her into her room. She quickly ran into the bathroom, undressed and took a shower. After, she changed into her pajamas and climbed onto her bed and slept off.

Next day, Chad took Rachel and Johanna to school. After dropping them at school, he went to the company. In his office, Chad was on a phone call when joy came in.

"Get all the list of all our clients and bring them to me" he hung up the phone and lifted his head from the document on the table to look at joy.

"Sir Chad, the American investors will be coming in a few days time"

"Oh..." Chad lowered his head and continued working on the company document.

Joy took two steps forward and continued. "Sir Chad, the meeting will be here in sedolio hotel. We have made a reservation for them to stay when they arrive from London"

"That's good"

"Sir Chad, these are the new shoe line products we just made. The sales are very high. We have a lot of people buying this product, both the rich and poor" Joy paused for few seconds, then she continued. "There is something important Mrs Torres will want to tell you, sir. She said she will be waiting for you in her office" she said.

Chad glanced up at her and did not respond. He flipped some documents open and put his signature on them, then he lean back into his chair and said, "You can go"

Joy bowed and left the room. Chad missed Rachel so much and decided to call her, but her phone was switched off. Maybe she is still in class. Chad slipped his phone into his pocket, stood up and left the room.

In Mrs Torres office.

Mrs Torres was working on some documents when she heard a knock on her door. "Come in" she said.

Chad opened the door, came in and sat on the chair.

"Why did you call me, mom?" Chad asked and looked into his mother's eyes. Mrs Torres raised her head and dropped the pen in her hand. She lean over the table and said, "Son, about Rachel, I have not had the chance to talk to you about her staying in our house. Chad, I don't..."

Chad slapped his hand on the table and stood up angrily. "Mom, stop it. Must you complain about everything. We are at work so stop taking about family matters when we are at work. Mom, Dad supports her staying in the mansion, okay? And I don't need your permission before allowing Rachel to stay at our place. Can't you just at least support me for once, mom?"

Chad does not want to listen to his mother's rubbish. Can't she just stop complaining about Rachel?

"I won't support you if it's Rachel you love. I can't just watch that girl continue to use you" she retorted.

"Do you think Rachel is using me?"

"Yes. She is using you for her own benefits. Very soon, she is using you for her own benefits. Very soon, she will start collecting your money and everything you have"

Chad stook his head and smiled. "Thanks mom for caring about me, but I am old enough to do whatever I want to do" he turnes to leave, then he remembered something. He stopped in his tracks and turned back to face his mother. "Mom, you should start thinking of Rachel as your future daughter in law from now on" he said, turned and left the room.

"Daughter in-law my foot" she sneered. She lean back into her chair and shook her head in frustration. No matter what she said to Chad, he won't just listen to her.
