Chapter 39 Malicious Rumor

'Hiram, if you really want to keep a low profile, you should try harder. Though the car you bought is just a Volkswagen, it still cost a lot.

Or, is this car's price already cheap for you?' Rachel thought to herself.

Rachel thought carefully and said, "Well... Just give me the key later. I will drive it myself. It would be a hassle for you to pick me up all the time."

Then Carl answered, "Okay… But I need to ask my cousin first. I'll go home now. I'll come back here later to pick you after your work."

"Well… Fine." Rachel replied, and waved her hand. Then, she walked towards her workplace.

Rachel walked all the way to her office that was upstairs. While going there, she noticed that there were people who pointed at her and whispered as if they were gossiping.

She felt confused; she couldn't hear what they were saying.

Some of Rachel's team members stood up together immediately when they saw her enter the office.
