Even though she was in such an embarrassing situation, she didn't seem less beautiful than usual.
Rachel was even so charming that people could not take their eyes off her for a moment.
Nancy was so angry that she almost ground her teeth. She glared at Rachel in fury, and then sneered
on the sly. "If she can't do anything to you, then let me give you a lesson on behalf of my mother!"
Hardly had her voice faded away, she heard a beautiful but extremely cold voice from behind.
"Who dares?"
Several black figures slowly walked over from the rain curtain. The assistant carefully held the umbrella
for Clark, while the latter only took a slight glance at Vivian on the ground with a very cold look, as if he
was looking at a dead person.
"Hi, Clark." Nancy was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of surprise flashed across her face. "Why
are you here? Are you here for me?"
But Clark walked gracefully to Rachel who was still kneeling on the ground and stopped in front of her.
He glanced around with his deep and cold eyes and said, "If anyone dares to lay a finger on the person
of the Ji family, she is the enemy of the whole Ji Group."
All the people present were stunned, especially Vivian, who was still lying on the ground. When she
heard what he said, she looked as pale as a piece of paper and was frightened to retreat.
"Clark, what are you talking about?" Nancy forced a smile and said, "Are you blaming me for treating
my sister like that? Actually, we were just kidding. I was about to ask my mother to let her get up from
the ground..."
She paused at the sight of the repulsion deep in Clark's eyes. It was then that she realized whether he
meant it or not.
"How could you do this to me, Clark? You, you've always been nice to me, haven't you? You only keep
me by your side as a woman. Why? Why do you treat me like this now?" Nancy couldn't help but shed
tears, and then pointed fiercely at Rachel, "Is it because this tramp climbed into your bed? You were
forced to be responsible for her? It's okay. I... "
Impatient, Clark interrupted Nancy. With a cold face, he said, "I don't want to repeat what I've said. And
you dare curse my fiancee again. Even it is you, Nancy, I won't forgive you easily."
Hearing his cold words, Nancy was stunned and stood rooted to the spot. In the end, she fled away
covering her face with her hand as if she couldn't bear the shame.
The others were intimidated by the powerful and cold aura of Clark and didn't dare to look up at him.
They all regretted agreeing to the appointment with Nancy today.
If they had known earlier that Rachel would be the wife of Clark, they would not have dared to
disrespect her.
"Go away! Out of my sight!"
Clark furrowed his eyebrows and cast a cold glance at them. Those frightened ladies immediately got
into their cars and ran away.
"Get up," Clark ordered coolly.
With her back to him, Rachel was still kneeling on the ground in silence, and had no intention of
standing up.
A hint of anger flashed through his eyes. "Why didn't I see you being so obedient and do whatever they
ask you to do just now?"
Somehow, he felt very uncomfortable when he saw her being bullied.
Especially when he saw that Vivian was about to beat Rachel, his heart skipped a beat.
Luckily, this woman's performance made his eyes light up again.
Rachel bit her lower lip, and her voice was a little weak. "Mr. Ji, I really appreciate your help before. But
now it's my personal affairs. If you don't mind, please don't interfere."
Her soft but stubborn words surprised the assistant behind Clark. He thought in his heart, 'What an
ungrateful woman! She must have pissed off Mr. Ji.'
But to his surprise, Clark didn't turn around and walk away angrily. His face stiffened, but he didn't
move. He pressed his lips and sneered at her, "Don't be a hero."
There was less and less rain on her head. Rachel looked up and found an umbrella over her head.
She was surprised. She looked at the direction of the umbrella and saw the man's delicate chin and
indifferent lips.
The slender man stood motionless next to the woman kneeling on the ground, silently holding the
umbrella for her.
This scene was sorrow but warm, which made people witnessing this feel the warmth of protection.
Nancy stared angrily at the scene outside the window until she heard the footsteps coming from
outside. She turned around and sobbed to Teresa, "Mom, why would Clark marry that bitch? How is
that possible? I should be his wife and the daughter-in-law of the Ji Family!"
Teresa looked out of the window following Nancy's eyes, frowned and scolded, "Look at yourself. Clean
yourself up quickly. Do you still want to take Clark back with this look?"
Stunned, Nancy looked at her mother and asked, "Mom, you mean I still have a chance to marry him?"
Teresa lifted the corner of her mouth, saying in a cold voice, "She won't marry him unless it's allowed
by her parents. Now I can make her kneel outside only because of a servant, let alone other things."
The daughter of the man she hated most did not deserve to live a happy life, so Rachel could only live
in pain for the rest of her life.
The rain gradually stopped.
Rachel's body trembled in an instant. Clark could even hear her breath become more and more heavy.
He frowned and glanced at her pale face and the strange red color on her face. He immediately
understood what was wrong with her.
"If you kneel down for another quarter of an hour, you will pass out because of fever. Are you sure you
still don't want to stand up?" Clark asked in an indifferent voice.
"The rain hasn't stopped," Rachel replied stubbornly. Her voice was obviously feeble.
"Damn it!" Clark cursed in a low voice. Then he walked up to her and tried to pull her up. "When are
you going to stop? Get up!"
Rachel had been kneeling in the rain for a whole day and night. She was unconscious, but she still
knelt on the ground and repeated her words over and over again, "The rain has not stopped."
A trace of anger and coldness flashed across Clark's eyes. He thought to himself, 'What on earth does
this woman want?'
The door was slowly opened from inside.
A servant of Teresa walked up to them immediately and respectfully bowed to Clark. Then, he put on a
false smile and said to Rachel, "Miss Rachel, Mrs. Teresa said the rain has stopped and you don't have
to kneel anymore. Since you have realized your fault, it's better you get up and go back to your room to
have a rest. Otherwise, people may think that we treat you badly."
The servant gave Rachel a cold look, signaling her not to tell Clark the truth.
