Chapter 647 The Rain Suddenly Stopped. A raindrop fell and dropped on Rachel's phone screen. She looked at the punctured tire and frowned. Then she opened Uber on her phone and walked to the grocery store ahead to take shelter from the rain. She waited and waited, but ten minutes later, no one accepted her request. The rain wasn't getting any lighter either. The owner of the store came out with a large stack of oil paper bags and spread them over the goods in front of the door. He glanced at Rachel and said, "Miss, I see you don't have an umbrella. Rachel just looked at him without saying a word. The owner frowned and added, "You surely didn't check the weather forecast before going out. The rain isn't about to stop anytime soon. I sell umbrellas, though. Should I get you one? Without one, you might get wet and cold standing there for long. You don't want to catch a cold. ” Fifteen minutes had gone by already, and there was still no sign from Uber. Rachel closed the App and said resignedly, "I'll buy one. The owner hurriedly ran into the store and took an umbrella from a comer. At first glance, the umbrella looked old, and its package was covered in dust. However, the rain was getting heavier and it was clearly going to pour for a long time. Rachel didn't care how the old it was or how it looked

"How much is it?" she asked. The owner wiped the dust on it with a towel and answered, "Two hundred. Rachel paused and looked at him with raised eyebrows. She wasn't much of an expert, but the umbrella had to cost no more than five dollars. Two hundred?. Feeling a little guilty and uncomfortable under Rachel's scrutinizing gaze, he coughed and said, "If you want it, Ican give you a discount. Take it at one hundred and fifty. Really? He was trying to take advantage of her situation. The owner was certain that Rachel didn't have an umbrella and that she had no choice. So he added insincerely, "Miss, this is the last umbrella I have. You don't have to buy it if you think it's expensive, but you'll get sick if you stay in the rain. Two hundred dollars wasn't a problem for Rachel. However, she hated the smug look on the owner's face, and she didn't want to please him. She put her phone away. “No, I don't want it. Thanks, though," she said with a straight face and walked out. The owner was surprised by Rachel's choice. He didn't think she wouldn't buy it. Stunned, he went after her. "Miss, one hundred

You can pay me one hundred. What do you think?". Rachel stepped into the rain without looking back. "Fifty then! How about that?" The owner's voice came from behind, Rachel didn't slow down. She kept going until she couldn't hear the owner's voice anymore. She looked around and murmured with a sigh, "No shelter. " Then, she took out her phone and opened Uber again. Still, no one accepted the order. It was a remote place and it was raining. It was more difficult to get a taxi under these conditions. She opened her contact list to find someone she could call. After going through it, she didn't really have anyone she could call. Quintin was at the alliance, and that was a long way from here. Andy went on a business trip a few days ago. Calling him would be futile. After Rachel hesitated for a while, her finger rested above Eva's phone number. Eva was her only option now. She was about to press on the call option when the rain suddenly stopped. Rachel paused and looked up, only to find an umbrella above her. She turned her head in surprise and saw man in suit standing next to her
