Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 265 Do You Know How Much I Have Sacrificed to Be with Xie Xiu?

Madam Chan said awkwardly.

“And now, she’s making a racket in the room. I was afraid, so I locked the door in a hurry.”

“What should I do now, Miss Rao? I…”

In a moment of distress, Madam Chan had referred to Secretary Rao as Miss Rao.

In the beginning, Secretary Rao was one of the young girls that were brought into Xie Xiu’s household to be raised as ladies.

But under Xie Xiu’s harsh training, it became a form of preparation for their profession.

It had been a while since someone had called her Miss Rao. She felt a sense of intimacy when she heard it.

And this intimacy strengthened her resolve.

She comforted Madam Chan, “It’s okay. Mr. Xie has figured out what to do with Miss Mu Zhi. He has sent me to pick her up.”

At this, Madam Chan let out a sigh of relief.

“Then what should I do now?” Madam Chan asked again.

Secretary Rao pondered it for a moment and said, “How about you take a break. Don’t do anything. Don’t worry about her. I’ll take her with me when I arrive.”

“Okay.”

Madam Chan let out another sigh of relief before gently hanging up.

Secretary Rao watched as Xie Xiu’s plane lifted off. She looked at the sea of clouds beneath her.

This was the first time that she had acted on her own will without following Mr. Xie Xiu’s instructions.

Previously, all her sisters who had done the same, had died.

In the past, everyone had said that Mr. Xie Xiu loved her the most and spoiled her.

And now, what would he do if she made him choose between his beloved woman and her?
