Have I Told You Lately
Chapter 87: Way to Go, Rach

Of course, how would she give up such an opportunity? She gave a wink to Miles and Magi. The two of them got the hint and started toasting one after another. In less than an hour, several people were as drunk as a skunk. And they were unable to stand on their feet. The young assistant was the first to be under the table. After some time, Rachel Lewis got a room in the hotel and let the waiters bring them over. After ensuring nothing would happen, she left with Miles and Magi. At the entrance of the hotel, Rachel took a deep breath of fresh air.

The smell of alcohol inside just now was making her sick.

Just that, she had also drunk a full glass of Chinese spirits. Although she was unlikely to get drunk of that, she still felt the intense heat when the breeze hit her face outside.

"I'm in awe of you, Rach. You're indeed imposing just now. Otherwise, we might be the one lying inside now." Magi looked at Rachel with admiration as they came out. His tone was more enthusiastic than usual, probably due to the drinking.

Rachel pulled her collar to dissipate the heat on her. She glanced at Miles beside her and said, "I'm not taking credit for this."

Miles blinked his eyes innocently, giving a smile, and he hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Rach. I was dismayed and being mindless for mentioning Mr. Shawn."

"You could think of Mr. Shawn by instinct. So you think that you could handle it by yourself, aren't you? Won't you be afraid of your cover being blown?" Rachel winced, but she didn't mean to blame Miles. Just that beside her family, this was the first time someone else mentioning Kenneth Shawn to her. This made her felt strange.

Miles smiled and nodded his head, "Yep, I'm fearful of it, but I'm even more confident with your resilience, Rach. In City J, almost everyone was scared of Kenneth Shawn. Luckily that, we Vantage Inc. do have business dealing with him. So, that wouldn't be a lie too. Even if things getting spread out, it won't bother us anyway."

As Miles said, he inclined his head to think for a while. Then he said earnestly, "If we got the chance to meet Mr. Shawn, we have to thank him. He won't know that his title had helped us a lot."

Rachel stopped talking suddenly but looked strangely at Miles and asked casually, "You never meet him before?"

"No, Rach. Next time when you go to the Dragon Age, please bring me along."

Rachel hadn't spoken yet, but Magi was seemed to be amused, and he patted on Miles's shoulder, "It's fine even if we're not going to the Dragon Age. Last time we saw Mr. Shawn at their branch too. You have the chance to thank him face to face."

Rachel was speechless looking at the two of them.

Precisely at the moment, her phone rang. The ringing sound was loud and clear on the empty street, and it had interrupted the conversation between Magi and Miles.

"Rach, your phone is ringing. "Magi reminded Rachel subconsciously.

Rachel took out her phone from her bag and had a look on the caller ID. She didn't answer the call and said to the two of them, "It's getting late. Let's get back." There was a car heading straight at them with the dazzling headlights shining at them.

Miles turned his head sideways to avoid the bright lights and saw Rachel's flushed face. He frowned, "Rach, are you feeling well?"

Rachel stroked her cheeks with her hand and shook her head, "I'm fine. I just had only one glass of the liquor. Just go back and have some rest will be fine for me."

It was indeed to feel uncomfortable for her; after all, the clear spirit's alcohol content was very high.

"But your face is flushing... Are you having a fever?" Rachel's lips were red. Just a glass of liquor was unlikely to be this, and it wasn't her first time drinking too.

Miles was worried, and he raised his hand and put it on Rachel's forehead out of sudden. But he put in down before Rachel had realized, and said, "You had just drunk and I can't feel anything different anyway Let's just get back then."

"I'm fine. Why having a fever out of the blue?" Rachel smiled and headed to the roadside to grab a cab.
