Chapter 670 DON’T WASTE OUR TIME
Chapter 670 DON'T WASTE OUR TIME
It was getting dark when Rachel walked into one of the fancy restaurants in town A, which Gladys used to go to together with her friends and it was easy to spot their location because they had posted it online.
What made Rachel feel strange was; she wasn't invited to this party at all, although one could say she was also a member of Gladys' close circle of friends, or at least, that was what she thought.
She didn't think at all that there was any possibility for Gladys to have found out about her relationship with Derek and that was why almost all of her friends shunned her.
She was still under the impression that they just forgot to invite her to their parties and there was nothing unusual about it. After all, she wasn't kicked out of their group chat, like what happened with Derek.
Therefore, Rachel dared to come and meet Gladys. However, she was not allowed to enter, because the special room where Gladys and her five friends gathered was the VIP room and Rachel was not listed as an invited guest.
"You can call Gladys, she'll tell you that I'm her friend too," Rachel said adamantly because she didn't want to go home now that she had driven all the way to this place.
"If you are indeed a friend of Ms. Tordoff, you can call her yourself and let her know you're out so she can call the lobby to let us know," the hostess said politely to Rachel. "Because all the guests of Ms. Tordoff have already arrived and there are no reports of additional guests," the hostess explained to Rachel.
However, Rachel didn't agree to that and insisted that they must send someone to tell Gladys that her friend was waiting outside.
"No, you have to tell her I'm here!" she cried in annoyance. She looked at the hostess as if she was very stupid and deaf for not listening to her words.
And in the end, after some back and forth, they agreed to send someone to check this out. To ask if she was a friend of Gladys Tordoff.
With that, a triumphant smile could be seen on Rachel's face, however, that smile didn't last long as the person sent came back and said that Gladys didn't know Rachel at all.
"Not only Ms. Tordoff, but also the other five friends don't know you at all," said the waitress with a frown on her face because she had to ask this and disturb Ms. Tordoff. She didn't want to anger the bigshots just because of this and let her tips money be snipped off. Then that would be a real pain in the ass.
"No way," Rachel muttered. She then tried to dial Gladys's number, but she didn't pick up. "Let me ask her myself," Rachel said, annoyed. She tried to enter, but there were two guards who forbade her to even step inside and stood right in front of her with very fierce eyes.
"You better leave and don't make a fuss, otherwise we'll have to blacklist you from this place," said the hostess in a stern tone. She then pointed at the door with a polite gesture. "Please go away, or else you will only embarrass yourself."
Hearing this, Rachel growled in annoyance, but she didn't fight back when someone led her away from there.
It was only when she was outside the restaurant and seeing how they were treating her, that the thought of the possibility of Gladys knowing this came to her and this made her curse again, very annoyed.
It shouldn't have ended like this. All her plans should go well. But, why was she in this position now?
All of this happened because of Derek's ignorance who was not careful enough in hiding their affair.
To this day, Rachel still thought that Gladys didn't know who Derek had been having an affair with.
=======================
Apple kept getting calls from numbers she didn't recognize and this was so annoying. She was just about to leave her house when she overheard Adrian talking to someone on the phone.
At first, Apple didn't want to eavesdrop on this conversation, but since she heard about the delivery, which reminded her of Jayden's plan to ambush the Gevano family, she couldn't bring herself to step away and decided to listen to Adrian's conversation.
Adrian was right in front of the front door, but he had his back to it, so he didn't realize that Apple had been listening to most of his conversation, until someone gave him the signal to turn around and he found Apple standing behind him with her arms crossed over her chest and thinking hard.
"I'll call you later," said Adrian, who hastily hung up the phone in a hurry. "Is there anything I can help you with?" asked Adrian trying to stay calm, even though his heart was beating fast, because he knew he had fucked up.
This plan wasn't supposed to be known to Apple, but she heard almost all of the plan.
"Shouldn't I be the one asking that?" Apple asked Adrian. "Why wasn't I told about Jayden's plan?" asked Apple curiously.
She had asked Jayden many times about this, but Jayden always easily brushed it off and said that he was still working on the plan, but now, she just found out that the plan would be implemented tomorrow.
"Oh, I don't know what you're talking about," Adrian said innocently, but of course Apple didn't buy that.
"You know exactly what I'm talking about. Do you know why Jayden didn't involve me in this?" asked Apple with a very fierce look.
"I don't know about that…" Adrian muttered nervously.
"We both know you're lying, Adrian. Let's not waste our time," Apple said in a voice that sounded very cold, as if she could see right through Adrian's soul. "What has Jayden planned for Gevano?"
"Apple… look…" Adrian tried to explain.
