Chapter 10 Noticing the changes in her
Was he dreaming or did Araceli just yell in a public space? He has seen that much fury or anger
before, especially not from the ever calm and meek Araceli which he found boring but now...Now she
has ALL of his attention. I mean was it possible for someone to develop a strong and outstanding
personality over one strange ass journey, because if that is possible, he will like to take all his exes to
conversion therapy because of their dry ass humor.
Hepletely forgot about the hostess he was flirting with and ran out to meet Araceli and met her
waiting for her ride outside.
"Araceli"!!!
"Urghhhhh" Rachel groaned internally
"How can a single human dimwit be so relentless!!... don''t you have a failingpany to run or
some dumb ass caked face model chick to bang Baldwin, anything you got to do that involves you
leaving me alone seems fine to me" Rachel replied him still royally pissed.
"You know if I didn''t know Araceli better, I would say you are a bit jealous...don''t you think"? Yandel
retorted with a confident smirk.
"Wait wha what…" Rachel stuttered a bit as her face got flushed a little.
"Awwn is Araceli blushing"!!!
"OMG that''s so cute" Yandel cooed with some element of truth in his voice.
"Wait, did you just call me cute? And FYI I can''t be jealous of someone who is still half through
what mypany has achieved baldwin"
"Whatever Aracel, I just came to tell you toe inside alright,it''s gonna rain soon and I''m sorry
foringte and this banters as much as Ilove riling you up, I need this business deal to be signed
as soon as possible"
Yandel responded being a little reasonable which took Rachel by surprise.
Rachel brought out her phone and took a little video and picture of Yandel while he stood there
slightly surprised by her act.
"What was that for Aracel"? Yandel asked..
"First of, only my kid bro gets to call me Aracel, Secondly, I was kind of taken back at your sudden
choice to act like a slightly responsible adult so i decide to record a bit of that just to be sure I wasn''t
hallucinating or something"
Rachel replied with a straight face while putting her phone into her bag. This brought a smile to
Yandel''s face.
"This is apletely different Araceli than the one I knew a month ago, and I can''t lie, I kinda like
the feisty Araceli more than the calm meek Mary Jesus Araceli, ” Yandel said with a genuine smile.
"Damn he has a beautiful smile"...
Wait what!!!
No Rachel!!
Bad thought!!
Bad thoughts!!!
"Alright about the nickname issue,how about I call you Celi"? Yandel added.
"Celi??....I don''t know if it sounds like Mexican food or something. You know what Baldwin,
whatever rocks your little canoe."Rachel replied
Walking back into the restaurant while Baidwin opened the doors for her as she entered. She
rolled her eyes while heading to their reserved table and taking a seat not before she swatted Yandel''s
hand from trying to hold a chair out for her.
"Sooo" Yandel dragged out when they were finally seated.
"What will her majesty be taking this fine evening?" Yandel mocked a little.
"As much as you definitely will be a fine waiter without a reasonable future,I wouldn''t like anything
baldwin. I don''t take seafood" Rachel replied without looking up from her menu.
"Wait what"?! Yandel asked in disbelief, his shock was very evident on his face.
"Celi we took shrimps with dressing and sdst month, Now you don''t eat seafood"? Yandel
asked skeptically.
"Well it''s a health thingy Baldwin, why do you sound so stressed about it"? Rachel replied, trying to
y it off.
"You know what, I i will just get some sd with no seafood dressing, that''s fine by me" Rachel
said, closing up her menu looking up to a shocked and slightly skeptical Baldwin.
She really needed to do a little more research on Araceli''s likes and dislikes. First, the strawberries
and now seafood.
"What"?!! Rachel asked slightly ufortable with the way he was looking at her.
"Nothing nothing, just that you are acting a little strange with this whole personality.I have to say, I
really like it, the whole new fire brings a whole new light to your eyes" Yandel replied.
This took Rachel by surprise,was yandel flirting with her?What the hell was he doing to her? She
could feel her cheeks getting warm.
"Well that was totally not awkward now, don''t you think"? Rachel asked with a tone of light sass.
Which made Yandelugh heartily which she couldn''t deny….it sounded really nice to hear.
"No it doesn''t Rachel, focus"!!!.
"This is isn''t what Araceli wanted"
Rachel thought.While she was in thought,he had already ordered for both of them.
"Hey!, I didn''t tell you what I wanted!”Rachel whined.
"You did actually, you said you wanted sd with no seafood dressing" Yandel replied skeptical.
"Ok then" she replied defeated.
"Alright, so let''s start talking about the business proposal, I know you already exined in detail
back to my team," Yandel said with he''s business tone.
Rachel saw no evidence of a joke in his voice and she got serious too.
"Ok so the proposal is simple, our business is at the top of the market right now, believe me our
Yandel nods in reply and Rachel takes the cue to continue, she didn''t know what Araceli discussed
with Yandel but she went through the print Araceli made and she understood it. It was going to shoot
herpany out of the roof.
Rachel went ahead and exined it to the best of her ability for yandel to understand but he still
had an unsatisfied look on his face and she couldn''t help but feel unaplished.
"I must say that''s a brilliant proposal Celi but you did a better exnationst time,it''s almost like
you are a whole new person to be honest" Yandel said.
This made Rachel''s heart skip a bit, if she wasn''t careful people were going to start suspecting her
that she wasn''t Araceli.
"Well what can I say Baldwin, after keeping me waiting for almost an hour and half I kinda lost
some of my fire. So this is on you,not me" Rachel replied confidently.
"Fair enough," Yandel said in surrender.
In the next 30 minutes, they had eaten and Rachel got to know about a few thing she didn''t think
Araceli knew about Yandel. Such as having younger twin siblings, a boy and a girl, and how he had
inherited hispany from his parents at the age of 21 and he graduated from Harvard. He seemed
like the perfect mummy and daddy''s boy.
She was kinda surprised though when he didn''t ask much about her,as if he knew how confusing
and ufortable it will make her feel, how she didn''t know to talk about Araceli Garcia the heiress or
Rachel Johnson the ordinary but stubborn MBA degree.
They left the restaurant in a happy mood, funny enough how the same person that can rill you up
so good can also make youugh. Rachel ordered an Uber back home because she knew Jeffrey
would be off work at 6 and this was 7 02.
She could help but feel a wussy feeling in her belly...What was this she was feeling…
She made ast minute change to go to the office. She needed to clear her head because On
God, she didn''t feel right, was this wussy feeling because of Yandel because he better not.
Just as she reached the office, she met her secretary still working.
"Maria don''t you think you should be heading home now"? Rachel asked her.
"Uhm yeah I should, I was just rounding up anyway,” Her secretary replied while gathering up her
files to take her leave.
As Rachel went back to her office, she got a text from Yandel which brought a strange smile to her
face which she didn''t know was there.
Baldwin
Hey so I forgot to add this but my twin siblings are having a party for their birthday. I was
wondering if you coulde so we could talk some more on our business deal.
PS you can leave the business attire behind ande as casual as you can,you don''t wanna
scare the teens.
Sheughed a little while reading thest line,the thought of having Yandel trying to spend time
with her made her smile more…
"What is this green eyed man up to"....
This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.
Rachel thought.
