Eddison casually turned his head and said, "No, you didn't!"
Upon hearing his voice, Rachel looked at his face clearly. She said, "It's you?"
She seemed to be a little surprised. The way she smiled was much more genuine than the standard
smile of a notable young lady.
Jarred was happy to hear that. "Why? Do you two know each other?" he asked.
Rachel cheered up and said with a smile, "We just met at the construction site! Hello, I'm Rachel!"
Remembering her help at the construction site, Eddison reached out to shake hands with her and said,
"Thank you for what you did just now!"
"You're welcome!" Rachel said with a smile. Then, she turned around and changed into her previous
kind demeanor.
"Dad, I'll ask them to serve the dishes!"
Jarred nodded with satisfaction as he replied, "Okay!"
During the meal, Jarred and Amos made excuses to leave after only a few bites. In the end, only
Eddison and Rachel were left.
Eddison did not have much appetite. It was alright to pretend to be obedient in front of the adults.
However, after the adults left, he naturally did not want to act anymore. Despite that, the education he
had received since a young age did not allow him to be too ungracious.
Therefore, he put down his cutlery and waited silently.
However, after a while, his attention was drawn to Rachel, who was concentrating on eating next to
him.
When he saw her on the construction site, he had thought she was a hard-working girl. Later, when she
recognized him, he had even felt a little excited at that moment.
He had also thought that she was being genuine at the construction site, but when he saw how she ate,
Eddison thought that he had thought too much into it.
She was really a daughter from a rich family. She ate slowly, like a kitten stretching out its pink tongue, All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
licking its furry paws carefully.
His family was rather easygoing. At least Naomi, who Eddison was familiar with since young, was a
straightforward person. He had never seen such a girl like Rachel.
For some reason, he was taken aback.
Rachel caught his gaze and slowly put down her cutlery.
She swallowed all the food in her mouth carefully, wiped her mouth, and then spoke to him.
"I'm sorry. You've finished your meal, haven't you? Sorry to keep you waiting!"
It was too embarrassing to be direct in such a situation. Eddison took a deep breath and said, "It's
alright, you can continue to eat!"
"It's okay, I'm already full!" Rachel smiled and said, "I'll go to the bathroom, and then we can leave."
Eddison nodded, sat at his seat and took out his phone to play with it.
He clicked on the school forum, and saw the event that Sierra joined. She was ranked second at the
moment and had many votes, which made Eddison feel proud inexplicably.
The girl he liked was really beautiful.
He opened his conversation with Sierra and wished her congratulations. However, before he could
send the message out, Sierra's message arrived.
"Did you ask people to vote for me? Thank you."
Eddison quickly deleted the wishes from earlier and sent the words 'don't mention it'. After he thought
for a moment, he added, "Sierra, you were excellent. Those votes were genuine!"
Sierra replied, "You really are good at talking! Honestly, I should be satisfied with my current ranking,
but I like the prize for first place a lot!"
Eddison was stunned and took a look at the prize for the first place winner.
The first prize winner could sign a contract with an entertainment company and win a piano.
"Sierra, you want to make a debut?" Eddison asked. In his mind, she was already quite outstanding,
therefore it did not matter to him if she wanted to make a formal debut in the industry or not.
There were many entertainment companies under Valiant East, and Eddison even wanted to say that if
Sierra wanted, he could help her debut after she graduated. However, for now, outsiders had no idea
about Eddison's real identity. He only wanted to finish his studies.
However, Sierra replied, "What are you talking about? How would I want to debut? The entertainment
circle is complicated. I only like reading and travelling! I want to let my soul wander!"
It was an artistic and fresh idea. It was not bad to live a peaceful life like this!
He smiled and replied, "That kind of life sounds good. Let me help you!" "Wouldn't that be too
troublesome?" Sierra was a little uneasy.
"It won't! It's not a big deal!"'
After their conversation, Eddison wanted to contact his roommates immediately. However, Rachel's
voice had already sounded.
"I'm ready!"
As soon as Eddison raised his eyes, he saw that Rachel had restored her perfect makeup. Even those
traces of having a meal just then had disappeared!
In fact, as she ate so cautiously, almost no traces had been left.
"Let's go!" Eddison put away his mobile phone and asked, "Where do you want to go? I'll take you
there!"
Rachel was stunned for a moment and glanced at the direction in which he put his phone away.
"Do you have matters to attend to? You don't have to send me back. I can head back by myself!"
Eddison was only thinking about pulling votes for Sierra, therefore he nodded and said, "Okay! Well,
goodbye!"
"Goodbye!" Rachel waved her hand and looked at Eddison's back. Gradually, a trace of joy appeared
in her eyes.
She immediately took out her mobile phone and sent a message to her friend.
"Do you believe in love at first sight? It seems that I have fallen in love at first sight!"
Eddison went back to his car. Before he drove back, he busily asked his roommates to vote for Sierra.
As a result, all his roommates sighed!
Eddison pursed his lips and wrote back, "That's impossible! Based on the number of students in our
school, even if everyone votes, it'd be impossible for there to be so many votes!"
Eddison frowned and understood the circumstances.
"You'd better give up! Although we are studying abroad, we can't compare with rich people like them!
Besides, Sierra is already in second place! That's already quite nice! Why do we have to fight with
those rich people?"
Eddison did not say anything, but he thought about what Sierra had just said.
Even if she wanted the piano, which he could buy for her, Sierra was such a pure person that she
would definitely not accept.
The only way was to help her win.
"Can you help me find a way to contact other people to vote for Sierra?"
His roommates thought that he was being impulsive and teased, "How much are you willing to spend?"
"Enough to surpass her!"
"You're crazy!" His roommate wanted to laugh, "Do you know how many zeroes that would cost?"
"Is half a million enough?"
"Are you serious?" His roommates were shocked!
"Where will you get the money?"
"Don't worry. I'll figure it out."
After that, he drove home directly.
When he got home, it was already dark. Eddison had his mind fixated on taking his bank card, and he
did not expect to see Amos's dark face in the living room as soon as he entered the door.
"What did you do this afternoon? Why didn't you send Rachel home? Is this how you act as a member
of the Granger family?"
