Chapter 4 You Want To Try

Rachel knelt in front of the main door of the Yan Family without hesitation, but her spine remained sturdy.

A low-key but fancy business SUV stopped not too far away from the scene. As the window rolled down, a handsome face came into view.

The man's gaze was cold, just like the terrible weather outside.

The assistant who had gone to discretely look into the situation at the Yan Family returned with an umbrella that barely protected him from the windy rain. He reported, "Mr. Clark, Miss Yan is being punished by her mother. It looks like she was asked to kneel down in the rain."

A frown that was almost unnoticeable appeared on his face. Clark sneered, "That's very obedient of her."

The assistant didn't respond. Clark nodded his head curtly and said in a cold tone, "If she is not ashamed, let her continue."

She was very different from the quick-tempered and daring girl who was imprinted in his memory. If it weren't for the birthmark, he would have doubted his assistant for being wrong again.

The assistant nodded, but it didn't seem like Clark had any intention of leaving.

"Sir, shall we leave?"

"Not yet." Looking at her defiant back, Clark took out a stack of files and started going through them. "I like the view here. I'll work for a while."

His assistant was confused. He looked out of the car window. It was raining cats and dogs; there was nothing good about the view.

Nancy looked down at Rachel from the French window on the second floor. She gloated, and her eyes were filled with pride and pleasure.

"How dare you try to steal my man..." She slowly curled the end of her hair with her fingers while a malicious smile appeared on her lips.

She called out to her trusted servant. The servant rushed to her side and bowed her head respectfully and said, "Miss, what can I do for you?"

Nancy said casually as she fiddled with her hair, "I'm bored. Give my friends a call and ask them to come over for some afternoon tea."

But she shook her head immediately and patted her forehead. "Ah, no. I changed my mind," she said with a playful pout. "Ask them to come right away. Tell them there is a good show at my place that they'll enjoy."

The servant nodded with a satisfied smile. "Understood, miss. I will ask them to come as soon as possible," she replied.

Rachel was drenched. She had been kneeling on the hard ground for quite a while in the pouring rain. She also started feeling dizzy.

She was trying her best to remain conscious when she heard the sound of cars rolling into the villa of the Yan Family, soon followed by the chuckles of some women.

"I wonder why Nancy wanted us to come here so early. I have a manicure appointment in the morning," one of them said in a discontent tone.

"I didn't get enough sleep, but we have to obey Miss Nancy's orders. Hm? Who's that kneeling in the rain?"

The women stopped chatting and all turned to Rachel. One of them screamed, "Isn't that Rachel?"

The others were stunned for a moment, and then saw clearly that it was indeed Rachel who was kneeling on the wet ground awkwardly. They sneered at her immediately.

"Oh, I thought it was a stray dog at the door. Turns out it is our famous Miss Rachel Yan of the Yan Family," a woman said with a sarcastic smile. She walked up to Rachel and stared at her with disdain. With a smirk, she said, "It looks like you finally learnt your lesson. How about you grovel in front of us now?"

Without saying anything, Rachel looked up at her coldly.

The woman was Nancy's best friend, Vivian Qiao, and they often bullied her together.

However...

Rachel ignored the jealousy and hatred with an ironic smile. She chose to say nothing.

Seeing her reaction, the rest of the women laughed. "Vivian, it looks like she doesn't even take you seriously. That's a bit embarrassing!"

Vivian's smile disappeared and she was filled with anger. "Rachel, how dare you ignore me!"

She glared at Rachel's beautiful face, green with envy.

When Vivian drew closer to her, Rachel subconsciously shifted her body to avoid the attack to her face, and accurately grabbed Vivian's hand.

"Vivian, you are inside the gates of the Yan Family. No matter what, I'm still a member of the Yan Family. Even if I cut down your hand here, the Qiao Family wouldn't dare say a word. You want to try?"

Rachel asked, staring up at her coldly. As her grip tightened on Vivian's wrist, she felt something spring up from inside her palm. Rachel opened her fingers, and saw a blade hidden inside. She grew furious instantly and pushed Vivian to the ground.

Before she could get up, Rachel pinned her down and slapped her across the face.

She growled, "You're such a bitch! You were trying to scar my face with the hidden blade. How much more vicious could you get? I'm going to teach you a lesson right now so that you'll never do such a thing to another person!"

Rachel slapped her again. Vivian screamed and covered her face in disbelief. She tripped and fell to the ground, rolling in the muddy rain. However, Rachel didn't stop. She continued to slap her like a crazy woman and Vivian's face was soon swollen like a golf ball.

The other women stepped back in shock. They had never seen anything like this before. Rachel had gone completely insane.

Although they had always sarcastically taunted Rachel alongside Nancy, and were also jealous of her beauty and temperament, they never harmed her physically.

After all, their families could not afford to piss off the Yan Family.

But Vivian had taken a step further today, and she was suffering for it. Rachel was already down when Vivian tried to kick her down more. It was really no wonder that she had flown into a rage!

"Stop! Stop! I was wrong. I am sorry! Please, let me go! Don't hit me anymore!" Vivian screamed, but Rachel ignored her cries and grabbed her collar, beating her mercilessly.

"I had warned you not to provoke me again, but you didn't care. Now I'll beat you up till you die."

Rachel's cold voice sent shivers down Vivian's spine. The latter stared at the woman in front of her with horror.

"Rachel! Have you gone crazy?! Let her go!"

Nancy yelled. The servants hurried towards the duo and tried to separate them.

However, before they could touch her, Rachel loosened her grip indifferently and threw Vivian down like a used rag.

"Nancy, next time choose someone smarter to bully me," Rachel said with a sneer.
