BXBX NOVEL Chapter 771: An Effortless Favor
Connor slowly turned to look at Rachel beside him. Then, when Nate wasn’t paying attention, he hugged Rachel. Then, he lowered his head and kissed Rachel’s delicate little mouth.
When Nate saw this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He instinctively wanted to stand up.
However, Nate quickly calmed down.
Nate was not a fool. On the contrary, he was very smart.
He could see that Connor and Rachel were pretending. Their goal was to make him give up on Rachel.
Nate knew that he was no match for Connor, so he felt that he might as well do him a favor.
Nate’s family was something in Rachel’s grandfather’s eyes because Nate’s grandfather was a martial artist. The status of a martial artist was not something ordinary people could have.
If Nate’s grandfather weren’t a martial artist, he wouldn’t be qualified to meet Rachel.
Connor and Rachel kissed for almost half a minute before Rachel pushed Connor away forcefully. Then, she pretended to be embarrassed and angry. She stared at Connor and said, “Connor, are you crazy? What are you doing?”
“Rachel, I really like you. I beg you, can you be my girlfriend?” Connor said to Rachel very seriously.
After Rachel heard Connor’s words, she couldn’t help but be stunned. Then, she asked Connor with a pleasantly surprised face, “Are you really sincere? Will you treat me well for the rest of your life?”
“I will.” Connor nodded.
“But… My grandfather asked me to be with Mr. Taylor…”
Rachel looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated. She subconsciously turned to look at Nate.
Nate stood up slowly and said expressionlessly, “Ms. Wallace, since you and Mr. McDonald are in love, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll explain the situation to your grandfather. After all, feelings can’t be forced.”
Nate was a nice guy. He knew that he couldn’t get Rachel.
Since he couldn’t get it, he might as well give Connor some face. This way, everyone wouldn’t be embarrassed.
Nate could tell that Rachel was putting up an act with Connor.
However, he also understood Rachel’s character very well. Since Rachel was able to get Connor to kiss her to get rid of the marriage arranged by her grandfather, it was enough to prove how determined Rachel was.
Also, Rachel had always been very arrogant. Now that Rachel could let Connor kiss her, Connor’s position in Rachel’s heart wasn’t just anything.
If he continued to pester her, it would be meaningless.
After Rachel heard Nate’s words, she finally relaxed.
Although Rachel had paid a great price to make Nate let go, she felt it was worth it.
“Thank you for understanding me, Mr. Taylor…” Rachel whispered to Nate.
“No need to thank me. It’s also my honor to witness you find the person she loves with my own eyes…”
Nate smiled faintly and continued, “The dishes have been served. Let’s eat…”
“Yeap!” Connor nodded.
The meal lasted for about half an hour. Nate found an excuse and left.
After Rachel saw Nate leave, she couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief. Then, she stretched lazily and said to Connor with a smile, “This is finally settled. I’m so tired…”
Hearing that, Connor could not help but look up at Rachel. After which, he said softly, “Actually, if you want Nate to let go, there’s no need for me to kiss you, right?”
“I didn’t ask you to do this just to chase Nate away. After Nate leaves, he will tell my grandfather about what happened today. My grandfather would know that we are together then. If I don’t act more realistically, my grandfather will guess I’m acting!” Rachel looked at Connor and explained softly.
Connor understood what was going on after hearing Rachel’s words.
It turned out that Connor thought that Rachel wanted him to kiss her to act for Nate, but it was to act for Rachel’s grandfather.
Only by making Rachel’s grandfather give up could Rachel avoid the trouble of going on blind dates in the future.
“What’s wrong? I asked you to kiss me, and you’re not happy about it?” Rachel saw Connor’s reluctant look and asked him with a pout.
“…”
Connor was stunned when he heard Rachel’s words, then he said in a low voice, “It’s not that I’m not happy about it. I’m just worried that you will take revenge on me because of this in the future…”
“Don’t worry, I let you kiss me today. I won’t take revenge on you!” Rachel replied indifferently.
Connor looked at Rachel and asked curiously, “Ms. Wallace, what does your family do?”
“I can’t tell you what my family does now but don’t worry. When you want to deal with Rockefeller in the future, the Wallace Family will be your greatest helper…” Rachel indifferently replied to Connor.
“Since the Wallace Family is so powerful, why would your grandfather like Nate? I don’t think Nate’s background is very powerful.” Connor asked his next question.
“The Taylor Family that Nate is in is not as simple as you think. Nate is only very low-key for some reason. In addition, Nate’s grandfather helped my grandfather back then, so he is the benefactor of the Wallace Family…” Rachel looked at Connor and explained.
