Chapter 76 Was She In Love With Someone

Name:Trapped In Lace Author:Goose
The Western restaurant was well decorated. Its romantic style gave off a very warm and homey feeling, suitable for couples going on a date or for friends to meet for a cup of coffee.

It was strange that so many people gathered here. What was even stranger was the atmosphere. They weren't communicating with each other.

Jack didn't speak because he felt the others didn't like him.

He understood why Eric didn't like him. But he couldn't figure out why this beautiful woman, Lea, disliked him too.

They didn't know each other, and so there was only one reason why she disliked him.

It was because of Rachel.

She was one of Rachel's friends, and Rachel must have said something about him to her.

It was easy to guess why she had treated him so coldly.

Jack wore a poker face. He wouldn't let their hatred get to him.

Eric was sitting opposite Jack. He sometimes mocked Jack, and sometimes talked with Lucas, as if they were good friends.

He asked about Lucas and Rachel's campus life.

Lea joined their conversation, leaving Jack out of the loop. He had no idea what they were talking about.

Jack had no chance to join their conversation.

So he continued to enjoy his meal in isolation and peace.

Eric was determined to keep Jack out of the conversation.

Jack felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out.

If Rachel promised to divorce because of following his father's opinion, Jack would treat her as his own sister and would try his best to compensate her.

If she fell love with someone else, Jack would feel better, at least feel less guilty.

Whenever he met Rachel, he felt guilty.

It was all his fault. He, as a member of Fu family, was the one who should be blamed for all this.

He knew so little about this woman, and his experience told him that she was not willing to tell him about her past.

He never had a reason to find out before. However, he was getting curious about her now.

After pondering over what kind of person she was, Jack once again glanced at Lucas.

The table fell silent once again, with only the faint sound the knife and fork colliding decorating the ambiance around them.

Rachel glanced at Jack, worried and wondering about what he was thinking of.

By the end of the dinner, Jack and Lucas politely exchanged business cards with one another.

Lucas left with Mendes.

Eric took a look at Jack, who was still standing beside them. He approached Rachel and whispered in her ear, "Why is he still here?"

She glumly answered, "I guess he will be staying at my place tonight."
