Chapter 1158: Chapter 1158 Worried

Rachel stood there motionlessly, and Eddison suddenly felt a little annoyed.

“Why aren’t you getting in?”

Rachel held her breath.

She told him, “No, thanks. I’ll ask my driver to pick me up.”

Eddison frowned and said, “Fine! Then, you just wait here all you want!”

After that, he opened the door and got into the car. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned back, wanting to scare Rachel.

“Don’t blame me for not reminding you that there are a lot of hooligans around here. Be careful not to be targeted!”

Rachel was timid, therefore his words made her heart skip a beat. However, she was so upset and did not want to give in.

She didn’t want to appear cowardly anymore! She didn’t want to be looked down on!

She became angry and turned her head away.

Eddison frowned. Then, he got into the car and drove away.

It was not until Eddison’s car had gone far away that Rachel felt a little scared.

She called her driver again, “How much longer will you take?”

Her driver apologized, “I’m sorry, Miss Rachel. Because of my negligence, the car has broken down on the road, and I’m repairing it. It may take a while. Could you please wait for me a little longer?”

Her driver had always treated her well. At that moment, he was also quite anxious.

Rachel could only nod and said, “Okay!”

After she hung up on the call, she looked around at her surroundings. She was still a little scared, therefore she found an inconspicuous corner and sat down.

The weather did not look too good and Rachel was in her school uniform, which was a little thin.

As she sat on the ground, she suddenly thought of Eddison’s behavior that day. She had always thought that Eddison’s character was the same, and that he just did not like to express his feelings.

However, when she saw him with Sierra, she suddenly understood that he was not a cold person, but it was just that she was not the one he liked.

In that case, why did she still insist on being with him?

She had no idea herself.

Perhaps, she should let go of him. Eddison had someone he loved and she had been pestering him all the while. It was no wonder that he hated her so much.

With tears in the corner of her eyes, she sniffed and buried herself in her knees.

…

In fact, Eddison was also angry. Rachel was the one who was pestering him, but at the moment, she was the one who was angry at him as well!

He hadn’t even started to get angry at her yet so what right did she have to be mad at him?

However, it was so late at night. No matter how angry he was, it was horrible of him to leave her alone there!

Eddison was distracted. He stepped on the brakes and parked the car on the side of the road.

Then, his phone rang. He picked it up and it was the driver’s voice.

“Young Master Eddison, are you free now? Could you pick Young Madam Rachel up?”

Eddison’s heart skipped a beat. “What’s wrong?” he asked.

“My car broke down and I don’t think it will be fixed in a short time. I’m afraid that Young Madam has been waiting for me for a long time…”

“So, you haven’t picked her up yet?”

“I… ”

Before he could finish his words, Eddison interrupted him.

“Why aren’t you doing your job well? If something happens to her, can you bear the consequences?”

The driver was terrified. Although Eddison did not need his care before, ever since Eddison had come abroad, he had been by his side, serving him.

All those years, the children of the Granger family had always been polite and well-mannered. They had never spoken harsh words to them.

It was the first time for Eddison to get angry with him.

For a moment, the driver had no idea how to answer and could only apologize profusely.

“I’m sorry, Young Master Eddison. I…”

The call was disconnected.

Eddison thought of the several gangsters from the other night, and remembered Rachel’s pitiful appearance back then. He became even more anxious.

He stepped on the accelerator hard and sped past the right light as he raced towards where Rachel was.

Along the way, he regretted silently. He was a man. Why did he have a quarrel with a weak woman who was throwing a tantrum?

How could he take her words so seriously?

He could not help but hit the steering wheel.

He cursed in a low voice, “That foolish woman!”

The twenty-minute journey only took him five minutes.

Eddison got out of his car and ran to the place where he had left Rachel, sweat running down his spine. However, he couldn’t find her at all.

Eddison was so nervous that he could not breathe. Where had that foolish woman gone? Had she been taken away by someone?

He hurriedly looked around, but there were only a few people left at the moment, and she was nowhere to be seen.

Eddison felt his hands trembling. He took out his mobile phone and wanted to call the police. The next second, he heard the sound of a few drunk gangsters talking in front of him.

“That one just now was really interesting.”

“The skin was tender and smooth, but it was a little too hot!”

“It was really hot, but I I liked it!”

Their words were getting more and more shameless. Eddison felt a buzz in his head and his eyes turned red.

Without hesitating, he rushed forwards and punched the man, who looked like the leader of the group.

“What did you say? Where did you take her?”

The leader was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses.

“Brat, where did you come from? What does that have to do with you?”

“Who said that it’s none of my business?”

He threw another punch at the leader!

The others also became angry. They came forward and fought with Eddison. However, Eddison was so angry that he did not care about his own life at all!

The few of them were knocked down to the ground by Eddison before they could lay their punches on him.

“Where is she?” Eddison shouted.

The first person who was beaten up begged for mercy, “Who are you talking about? You didn’t even mention them!”

“The one you were talking about just now!”

They looked at each other and said, “A street ahead!”

“Be more specific!”

Frightened by Eddison, the man shouted, “There’s a fried chicken shop on the street ahead!”

“Are you bluffing me?” Eddison was at a loss for words. “Why did you take her to a fried chicken shop?”

“Her?” The other party was also stunned. “We didn’t bring anyone with us! No outside food was allowed!”

Before his voice died away, he was kicked by Eddison again.

“What are you talking about? I’m talking about Rachel, the woman who was here just now!”

A woman?

The three of them were dumbfounded, “We’re talking about fried chicken! You’ve started to hit us as soon as we got here. We never saw any women when we arrived!”

Eddison was stunned, “Are you trying to deceive me again?”

When he was about to kick him again, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him.

“Eddison? Are you looking for me?”

Eddison was stunned. When he turned around, he saw Rachel standing there, unharmed. There was a puzzled look on her face.

Before he could recover from the shock, Eddison saw that Rachel was safe and sound. He subconsciously rushed up to her and asked, “Are you alright?”

At that moment, Rachel’s strong self-esteem that she had built up for herself had broken down in an instant.

Was Eddison concerned about her?

Truth be told, he did not hate her that much, did he?

“I-I’m fine! I was waiting for my car but the driver won’t be here so soon, therefore I sat up front over there for a while. Did you come back to look for me?”

Eddison was so angry that he scolded her again.

“Foolish woman!”
