Rachel narrowed her eyes. "Are you trying to scare me?"
Vincent chuckled. "How would I dare? Furthermore, how would you be scared of me when you have a
temper like that? Rachel, you know there's no stopping me from getting anything I want. Aren't you
worried I'll get a locksmith to open the door for me?"
Rachel was stunned.
She could not hold back her fury. "You d*mn b*stard!"
Then, she pulled the door open recklessly, only to find a smiling Vincent standing before her.
Rachel was still furious. She raised a foot and tried to kick him, but Vincent quickly retreated and
dodged it.
"Coward. You won't even take a beating for disturbing me this late at night," Rachel said coldly.
However, Vincent smiled widely, "Since you wish to hit me, it shows that you care. Of course, I'm more
than happy to take your beating. Unfortunately, I can't afford to get injured with how the situation is.
Otherwise, how am I to protect you?"

"There has better be something important. Otherwise, you should…"
"I miss you."
"Go to hell!" Rachel burst into fury upon hearing him.
Her eyes were cold and intimidating as she glared at him.
Yet, Vincent sighed and put on a sad expression.
"If I were to die, where would you find another handsome, rich, and caring man like me?"
Rachel felt goosebumps all over her body.
I've never heard something so nauseating!
She glared at him intimidatingly. "So what? Did you come here to disgust me?"
Vincent waved his hands. "That's not true."
"What is it then?" Rachel crossed her arms and stared at him.
Her gaze was murderous. It seemed she would kill him if he failed to answer her satisfactorily.
Vincent sighed and said gradually, "Rach darling, I've gone bankrupt. Can you take me in for some
time?"
The first rule of courtship was to be friendly and courteous.
It was time to utilize a sad story if that didn't work.
That was why Vincent arranged this.
Rachel laughed in disbelief. "You're bankrupt? No way! Who would believe such nonsense? If you're
short on money, why not sell that sports car downstairs? It should be enough to cover your expenses
for one month."
Rachel would have believed anyone who told her that they were bankrupt.
However, there was no way that she would believe Vincent.
Vincent was troubled by Rachel's harsh response.
Is my acting skill that bad that she saw through it so soon?
No, I must not give up so soon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe pursed his lips and replied, "That's my only form of transportation left. Moreover, my bank accounts
have been frozen. I can't get any money even if I sell it. Rach, can't you empathize with me and let me
stay for a while?"
He appeared pitiful as he pleaded with Rachel.
Rachel still refused to believe him.
"I can borrow some money, but I can never let you stay. Wait, that's not right. It's not me who should
lend you money or give you a place to stay. Don't you have many friends? You are close with that
wealthy and influential Gareth. How can you not have money or a place to stay?"
Vincent was rendered speechless.
Having wealthy and influential friends used to be an advantage, but that turned into an obstacle.
He felt frustrated.
However, since he chose to carry out this plan, he had no choice but to persist stubbornly.
Vincent replied, "Gareth spent all his money to bid for the medicine. Moreover, he and Elisa are busy
dealing with matters in Moranta. Why would he have time to care about me? As for the other friends…"
Vincent sighed as he waved his hand. "They have nothing but disdain for me. Why would they help
me? Rach, you're the only one I have left…"
