Chapter: 1804
Rachel's message appeared on the screen.
Alberto's lips curved into a smile, and he quickly replied to her.
Carson was still lamenting the decline of such a giant company like Sullivan Group when he suddenly noticed the smile on Alberto's lips.
He immediately sensed something fishy. "Look at you. Why are you smiling like that? Let me guess. It's a message from Rachel, right?"
Alberto just glanced at him and said nothing.
Carson continued "Do you know that you look like a teenager chatting with his crush?"
Alberto suppressed his smile and stared at the screen of his phone again. Rachel had not replied yet, so he thought of sending her another message.
Carson asked, “By the way, how long do you plan to hide it from her?"
Alberto's fingers froze on the screen. He was stunned for a moment before he answered, "I don't know."
Carson looked at Alberto speechlessly. He could only sigh.
Rachel was not able to reply to Alberto's message immediately because she went to the restroom, leaving her phone on the coffee table. So, she only saw his message when she returned to the lounge.
He replied, "Yes, I'm home."
Rachel stared at his message on the screen for a while. She leaned her shoulder against the wall, thinking about what to reply.
She asked if Alberto was home to know if it was convenient for her to go there and give his legs a massage. But the fact remained that he was her boss. If she said it, wouldn't it be too straightforward?
What if Alberto misunderstood?
For a moment, Rachel regretted taking the initiative to send Alberto a message.
She realized she seemed to be paying too much attention to Alberto.
Rachel was still hesitating whether to reply when her phone vibrated again. Another message from Alberto came in.
“Do you want to see me about something?"
Rachel stared at the words on the screen for a while, pursing her lips tightly. She typed some words but deleted them, and she did this several times. After five minutes, she finally finished typing and sent it.
The only word she typed was “Yes.”
Alberto replied, “Okay, I'll wait for you."
Rachel was a little surprised that he just agreed without asking any questions.
She breathed a sigh of relief. Because if he asked, she wouldn't know how to explain.
