752: Pretend To Be My Admirer

Pretend To Be My Admirer

After Rachel heard Connor's words, she immediately became embarrassed and angry.1

She could not help but turn and shout at Connor, "I've already made it very clear to you just now. I didn't buy this at all. Also, it has nothing to do with me dealing with your truancy. I'm your lecturer."

"Fine. You didn't buy that. Since we're friends, give me two days off!"

Seeing that Rachel was a little angry, he hurriedly replied, smiling, "I really have something very important to do this time…"

"Although we're friends, I'm still your lecturer in school. Whatever important things you have has nothing to do with me!" Rachel said to Connor seriously.

"What if this has something to do with you?"

Connor hesitated before speaking to Rachel.

"Is it related to me?" Rachel was surprised when she heard Connor's words. Then, she turned to look at Connor and asked, puzzled, "What does it have to do with me?"

"The thing I'm taking leave to do this time has something to do with Rockefeller…" Connor looked at Rachel and said indifferently.

"It's related to Rockefeller?"

A strange look flashed in Rachel's eyes. Then, she asked in a puzzled tone, "What exactly are you going to do this time? If you're going on a date with your girlfriend, I won't give you a day off!"

"How... How did you know I recently went on a date with my girlfriend?" Connor asked in surprise.

"You caused such a huge commotion on the Princess Cruise Ship. Many people know about this, okay?" Rachel lightly rolled her eyes at Connor.

Connor was speechless because he realized he underestimated Rachel's connections.

Although Rachel was just a lecturer at Porthampton University on the surface, even if Rachel didn't leave the university, she could still find out what was going on outside through other channels.

"Phew…"

Connor took a deep breath, then looked at Rachel and said, "I didn't ask for leave this time to go on a date. I'm going to help Jorge find some herbs…"

"What does this have to do with Rockefeller?" Rachel asked in confusion.

"If I can help Jorge gather these herbs, Jorge will agree to take me as his disciple. Once I become his disciple, I won't have to worry about Rockefeller's people killing me. You probably don't want me to die in the hands of Rockefeller's people before we can work together, right?" Connor said to Rachel with a smile.

"…"

Rachel sized up Connor and said calmly, "The matter you mentioned has nothing to do with dealing with Rockefeller. This is merely your private matter…"

"So you don't want to give me a break? You just want to watch me get killed by Rockefeller's men, don't you? Aren't you cruel?" Connor said.

"All right, stop the act. I can approve your leave, but I have a condition!" Rachel blinked and softly said to Connor.

"A condition?" Connor was stunned momentarily, then frowned and asked, "What's the condition?"

Rachel looked at Connor and didn't say anything. She was a little conflicted. Should she tell Connor about that?

Rachel was already twenty-eight this year, a woman's prime age!

However, Rachel had many worries. She had never been in a relationship, so her family had always wanted to introduce her to men.

Put it bluntly; they wanted Rachel to go on a blind date.

To avoid the blind date arranged by her family, Rachel came to a small place like Porthampton and became a lecturer at Porthampton University!

However, even if Rachel hid in Porthampton, she still could not escape the fate of being urged to get married by her family.

Rachel's grandfather introduced a boy from Porthampton to Rachel some time ago.

Rachel had been living with her grandfather since she was young.

Rachel's grandfather also doted on her very much, so she did not want to make her grandfather angry.

However, she did not want to go on a blind date with this man, so Rachel had recently been troubled by this.

Rachel's grandfather called her again two days ago, wanting her to meet that boy.

Moreover, Rachel's grandfather was very determined. If Rachel continued to refuse, her grandfather might call her home. By then, things would be even more troublesome.

Therefore, Rachel had been troubled by this.

As for Rachel's blind date, his name was Nate Taylor. He was the son of a big shot in Davenport and the son of an officer.

Nate was tall, good-looking, and had a good family background. His personality was also great. His future was limitless. He was the cream of the crop. Otherwise, he would never have caught Rachel's grandfather's attention.

But Rachel had no interest in Nate.

However, she didn't dare to reject Nate, nor did she want to meet him.

Rachel knew that if she met Nate, it would give Nate hope. Rachel did not want Nate to have such an illusion.

Therefore, Rachel began to feel a little troubled. For a moment, she did not know what to do.

If Rachel didn't meet Nate, his grandfather would be very angry.

After all, her grandfather was already old. Rachel did not want to make her grandfather angry because of this.

However, Rachel did not like Nate.

At this moment, Rachel was in a dilemma, not knowing how to choose!

After Connor saw the conflicted expression on Rachel's face, he was even more curious about what Rachel would say to him.

"What exactly are your conditions?" Connor asked Rachel.

"Connor, can you pretend to be my admirer tomorrow night?" Rachel hesitated before gritting her teeth and asking Connor.

"What did you say?" After Connor heard Rachel's request, he suddenly stood up and exclaimed.
