"Mr. Augustus, I am sorry to say I will not be able to handle your project." Rachel said, facing him.
She had told her assistant, Bryan to inform him about the same. When he had given Jared a call, he had insisted on meeting Rachel in private. He wanted to have a talk with her as needed to know her reasons for rejecting his project.
"May I know why, Miss Carter?" Jared asked, looking sharply at her. However, she did not flinch. It was something she was used to.
"It's just that I have some emergency I have to attend to and I'll not be able to handle any new projects as of now," Rachel replied. She was not sure how to reply to him actually. How could she say that she was a little uncomfortable working for him and that her brother had warned her against him?
