Chapter 1288 Are You Staying Here Tonight?

"I feel like I have very little knowledge and haven't achieved anything noteworthy, while you seem to know so much and have accomplished so many things," Rachel said with a tinge of disappointment.

Elisa remained silent, knowing that she was being exaggeratingly dramatic.

A sudden worry gripped James as he feared that Rachel might feel depressed upon realizing the vast difference in aptitude between her and Elisa. "You can't compare yourself to Elisa," he reassured her. "She's an incredibly rare prodigy. However, you could indeed benefit from some more training. You're a skilled lawyer but not at the top of your class yet."

Jessie grinned, trying to hold back her laughter.

Meanwhile, Elisa shook her head without saying anything.

Nevertheless, Rachel didn't seem to have heard James. She was deep in her thoughts before looking at Elisa indignantly. "Okay! I've decided that I won't do anything else besides being your assistant! And you should give me half your assets in return!"

James' eyes twitched upon hearing Rachel's demands.

"Are you an id*ot?"

"Elisa and I are as good as sisters! We should share everything together. But when trouble hits, it's time to part ways."

"Hahaha!" Jessie couldn't stop herself anymore and laughed out loud. With Rachel around, the atmosphere turned lively and bubbly, even though she slowed their progress slightly. Since they were just discussing home, their time was quite flexible. Besides, they were already nearing the end of their conversation, so there was no harm in taking a breather.

Elisa also said hilariously, "Don't worry. Rachel and I are always fooling around like this."

James sighed helplessly. "This young lady deserves a scolding!"

Rachel held his arm in dissatisfaction. "Uncle James, you're my uncle after all. Why do you always scold me instead of cherishing me?"

"Go away and stop interrupting us. We're at work now!"

"Hmph! You didn't even tell me that Elisa is Rene!"

"You should blame yourself for not discovering it sooner," he snorted.

"What? So it's my fault?"

Elisa nudged her temples and said, "Go back to your phone."

With that, she looked at James and Jessie and asserted, "Let's continue."

Both of them resumed their businesslike demeanor. Even though Rachel liked to fool around, she knew better than to interrupt them, so she obediently returned to her phone.
