Chapter 143 The Blind Date Event
Chapter 143 The Blind Date Event
Hiram furrowed his eyebrows at Rachel, who was ruffling his hair.
"The party tonight is for nobodies like me. If you go to the party looking like you did before, you'll steal
the spotlight, and that's not good."
As she spoke, Rachel gave a satisfied look at Hiram, who now looked like every other guy on the
street. "I'm done. Now let's get out of the car, " she said.
As soon as they got out, Hiram looked at the luxury club in front of him. He narrowed his eyes and
asked, "This is the place you go to?"
"Yes, it's the place Celine asked me to come to. Why do you ask me? Have you been here before?"
asked Rachel, checking the location she had received from Celine again.
Hiram humphed and didn't respond. He had caught sight of Celine, who was busy answering a phone
call at the entrance of the club. Before she could see him, he strode into the club.
"Rachel? Thank god you're here!" Celine had been waiting outside the club for Rachel, so when she
finally saw her, she was relieved. "If you didn't show up, I wouldn't find the courage to walk into the
club. Let's go!"
Celine was wearing a red body-con dress which made her look beautiful and sexy. It wasn't her usual
dressing style. Rachel looked her up and down and said, "Celine, you told me that it's a simple blind
date event. Aren't you a little too dressed up?"
"Oh, I guess I didn't make it clear. Only singles will come here tonight, but... but they are also the
famous and respected people in H City. That's why I want you to be here with me, to boost my courage,
" Celine lowered her head and said in a low voice.
She wanted to marry a man who had a high social status, so going to a single party for celebrities was
the easiest way for her to look for the man she wanted to marry.
Hearing Celine's explanation, Rachel suddenly knew why Hiram had furrowed his eyebrows. It was
because he had already known that this was the place where a single party was being held.
"Rachel, you know, I've experienced a half-year failed marriage before, so I wouldn't dare to casually
find a man and marry him. Therefore... I know you can understand me!" Celine swung Rachel's arm This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
and looked at her with puppy dog eyes.
Celine was only a year older than Rachel, but she had already experienced a failed marriage, so
Rachel knew that she wouldn't give her heart to a man casually.
Rachel looked at her with a smile and said, "All right. I'm already here with you. So let's go! It's a
chance for me to see how celebrities have a blind date."
As she spoke, they walked to the club together.
"Ladies, do you have the invitation?" A waiter stopped Celine and Rachel and held out his hand for the
invitation cards.
"Oh, we do!" Celine quickly took out two pink invitation cards from her handbag and gave them to the
waiter.
Rachel looked around and found that everyone needed an invitation to enter. So how had Hiram
walked in without an invitation?
She had no idea that the waiter had respectfully welcomed Hiram as soon as he had seen Hiram's
business card.
After they entered the club, Celine started to get a little nervous. She held Rachel's hand and brought
her to one of the tables. "Rachel, I'm guessing you haven't had dinner yet, so you can start eating
something here. I have to go to the bathroom!" she said.
Rachel nodded with a smile and sat at the table. She knew that Celine seldom went to an event full of
celebrities, so it was normal for her to be nervous.
But Rachel was very calm even though she wasn't used to being in a place full of celebrities either. It
was probably because she had come here just for fun without any other motive.
'Eh, where is Hiram?' she thought to herself, Looking around as she ate her dessert.
"Rachel?" She heard a surprised voice from behind her.
"When I walked in, I saw a woman who looked like you from a far distance, but I wasn't sure if it was
you. But now, I am sure." A refined man who was wearing a suit and leather shoes walked up to
Rachel with a gentle smile on his face.
Rachel, who had her mouth full of the dessert when she saw him, quickly grabbed a piece of tissue and
wiped her mouth. With surprise, she said, "Way... Wayne?"
"Yeah. You still remember me? It seems I left an impression on you two years ago when we had a blind
date. You still remember my name..." Smiling shyly, Wayne looked at Rachel, who he thought had
gotten even more beautiful since the last time he saw her.
"I have to say that I owe you an apology. I knew that the things that happened in the past weren't your
fault. My mom was too stubborn!" Wayne said with a little regret.
Two years ago, Wayne had been gaining fame in the business world, but after having a few blind dates
with Rachel, he somehow kept losing money. Finally, his company filed for bankruptcy. His mother
blamed all that on Rachel and said that Rachel was a jinx. Then, she got involved in their relationship
and ended his dates with Rachel.
"Oh, don't say that. I should be apologizing to you. I guess I was cursed by the god of jinx, and you just
somehow inherited my bad luck!"
Rachel said frankly with a beautiful smile.
Among all the men Rachel had met in her blind dates, Wayne was the only man that she had gotten
along well with.
However, after hearing the gossip that all men who dated Rachel would have bad luck, Wayne's mother
blamed her son's failure on Rachel. At first, she had wanted to persuade Wayne to end his relationship
with Rachel, but it failed. Then she had scolded Rachel and made her end ties with Wayne.
"No, don't say that! If I hadn't failed before, I wouldn't have become so successful now. I should thank
you. You're the one who make me gather more experience, and thanks to that, I've achieved many
things, "
Wayne said sincerely.
Rachel couldn't help laughing. She tucked a red cherry into her mouth and said, "Look, I should still
take responsibility!"
"Oh, no, no. I didn't mean that. I, I'm always bad at expressing myself. You misunderstood me." Wayne
lowered his head, feeling like his explanation had only made things worse.
He had honestly never blamed Rachel for anything.
"Rachel?" Celine said, returning from the bathroom. When she saw that there was a handsome man
talking to Rachel, she couldn't help staring at him.
Rachel stood up and pulled Celine in front of Wayne. She said, "Celine, this is Wayne, a young
successful man in H City. He had a few dates with me two years ago. I've told you before.
Wayne, this is my best friend, Celine. She's a very nice girl.
Oh, I see an acquaintance. I have to greet him. You can chat with each other!"
Rachel winked at Celine and quickly walked to the boisterous crowd on the other side.
She looked around, but she didn't find Hiram. Instead, her eyes found a man who was holding a
woman's waist and chatting with her near the corridor.
There was a stud twinkling on his left ear. He was staring at the woman with an attractive smile as he
spoke. Whatever he had said made the woman blush and smile coyly. She knocked him on the
shoulders gently with her fists.
"Daniel, did you see Hiram?"
Hearing a familiar voice out of nowhere scared the wits out of Daniel, and he quickly let go of the
woman's waist.
When he turned around, he saw Rachel walking to him.
"Rachel? Why are you here?" Daniel asked with a frown on his face. 'It's a single party for celebrities.
Why is a married woman here?' he thought.
"You don't have to be scared. It's not the first time I'm seeing you flirt with a girl. Answer my question.
Have you seen Hiram?" Rachel asked. She raised her eyebrows and glanced at the sexy woman
beside him.
Daniel maintained a distance from the woman as he pointed at the passage near him and said, "He
was in the casino downstairs, but I saw him a while ago."
"Thank you. You go ahead, " Rachel said to Daniel with a broad smile. Then she waved her hand at the
girl and said, "I'm sorry to bother you!"
After that, she walked to the passage Daniel had pointed at and went downstairs.
