Chapter 801: 251: Her Terrifying Strength!_1
 

Rachel was looking at herself in the mirror.

There was an indescribable expression on her face.

Just then.

A knock on the door was heard, “Rachel, are you in there?”

It was Flora’s voice.

Rachel took a deep breath, striving to calm herself down, “Yes, what is it?”

Flora asked with concern, “Why are you in there for so long? Are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” Rachel tried hard to keep her emotions in check, “I’m just a bit constipated.”

There was no hint of anything unusual in her voice.

Flora didn’t think much of it, and laughingly said, “That’s alright, take your time. By the way, there’s a laxative in the cabinet opposite the toilet, you can check.”

“Okay.”

“I’ll leave first then,” said Flora.

“Hmm.”

Flora left.

Rachel was still standing in front of the mirror. A moment later, she turned on the tap and washed her face with cold water.

The cool water touching her skin.

Instantly, she felt slightly revived.

She kept warning herself inside.

Rachel, you cannot cry.

You should be aware of your social status, it’s already a huge blessing that Miss Simons is so kind to you, how could you possibly desire more?

A few minutes later.

Rachel had calmed down a lot, her face devoid of any noticeable expression. She left the bathroom and headed to the living room.

The living room was filled with cheerful chatter.

Upon seeing Rachel, Mrs. Zacks said warmly, “Rachel, come over here.”

“Miss Simons,” Rachel also approached with a smile.

Mrs. Zacks continued, “Come, try this jabuticaba.”

The jabuticaba looks like grapes.

But they are seedless, the flesh is milky white, sweet and rich in nutrients, ten times that of ordinary fruits. That’s why it’s expensive, and it is not jabuticaba season now, so the jabuticabas Mrs. Zacks bought were air shipped from abroad.

“Thank you, Miss Simons,” said Rachel.

Mrs. Zacks joked, “This child, why are you still being so formal with me? Just treat me like family from now on.”

Rachel responded with a smile and nodded.

Right now, only she knew how upset she was.

Mrs. Zacks personally helped Rachel peel a jabuticaba.

Jabuticaba, devoid of the purple skin, was juicy and cute. Taking one bite, the juice brimming out, sweet and soft, it was exceptionally delicious.

“Miss Simons, you should have one too.”

“Alright.” Mrs. Zacks also ate one, and then turned her gaze towards Mr. White, “Brother Nine, you should have some too.”

“Just had a meal, not hungry now.” Mr. White added, “Just pack some for me to take home later.”

Mrs. Zacks was accustomed to her brother’s behavior, and smiled, “Rest assured, I’ve packed some for you.”

Flora was speechless.

She had never seen such a stingy person like her uncle.

Diana looked at Mr. White, “Uncle, how’s your personal life recently? Have you found a girlfriend?”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zacks was more excited than Mr. White himself, “Diana, why don’t you introduce someone to your uncle?”

Diana laughed, “Alright, I’ll keep an eye out for him.”

Rachel glanced at Mr. White.

The conversation was about him.

But his face was unmoved.

As if, he didn’t hear any of it.

Rachel then looked at Diana.

She reminded herself of the similar topics Diana had asked Mr. White before.

Could it be…

Diana liked Mr. White?

If Diana didn’t have feelings for Mr. White, why would she bring up this topic again and again?

Upon reflection.

Rachel’s already gloomy mood began to sink further.

Diana was not lacking in looks.

She had graduated from a prestigious university.

Her family background was much better than hers.

If Diana really likes Mr. White, Mrs. Zacks would be pleased, right?

Perhaps Mrs. Zacks would even be keen to matchmake Diana and Mr. White.

She wasn’t well off.

As for education, she couldn’t compare with Diana…

It would be normal for Mrs. Zacks not to fancy her.

She should give it up.

But, as she looked at Mr. White’s face again, Rachel couldn’t help her heart from fluttering again.

When you like someone, it’s involuntary.

She couldn’t give it up.

From now on.

She would bury this affection deep in her heart.

“Rachel, how’s the jabuticaba? Is it nice?” Mrs. Zack’s voice came again.

Rachel came back to her senses at this moment, “It’s delicious, extremely delicious.”

Mrs. Zacks smiled and said, “I bought a lot of jabuticabas, later each of you take some home for your roommates to try.”

Compared to her previous companions, Flora’s few friends were different and Mrs. Zacks really liked them. She wholeheartedly approved of Flora’s friendship with them.
