Holley didn't expect that Rachel would see her like this.
Something surged through her chest and her hands shook. She had to restrain herself from slapping the hell out of the woman.
Rachel was a powerful woman with an equally strong background, and Holley was nothing but a dot in their map.
She should've seen the aftermath, given that her plan didn't work.
Holley forced herself to raise her chin and walked up the steps. Her gaze was filled with ferocity and fierceness. She placed a hand on her hip and stopped about five steps away from Rachel.
"Well? Are you happy seeing me like this?" she sneered.
Rachel furrowed her eyebrows. She didn't even do anything, and Holley was already putting it all on her. She whirled towards her. "I don't know what you're talking about," she snapped.
"Oh, drop the act!"
Holley yelled harshly.
Seeing that there was no point in convincing her, Rachel didn't want to say anything more. Fortunately, a taxi stopped beside her just in time.
"Do you need a ride, miss?"
She nodded and got in the car. At this point, she needed to figure out what the woman was actually talking about.
When the car drove away, it ran down a puddle and splashed water all over Holley's face.
She looked like a shrew as she pointed at the back of the taxi and shouted profanities at Rachel who wouldn't even hea
, someone stopped me and asked if I wanted to buy a phone. It looks like it belongs to you, so I bought it. It seemed that the power was already turned off though, so I'm not sure if it's actually yours," she said naturally.
She had already practiced it over and over again before she actually called him.
Jack picked up his car keys. "Where are you? I'll be there soon."
Taking this opportunity, Celine requested to have dinner with him, but it turned out even that plan backfired on her!
Celine had even gone to his company multiple times. She was frustrated when she couldn't even enter his office!
She clenched her fists.
Sitting in his car, Jack charged his phone and turned it on. There were several text messages popping out of his notifications bar. One of them was from Rachel.
"Why is your phone powered off? I'll take a taxi home. You don't have to pick me up."
He could already imagine Rachel's face as she typed in the message.
Jack headed for home.
When he opened the door, he was met with an exquisite scent.
He stood in front of the kitchen and spotted Rachel wearing an apron and reaching for some sugar.
The yellow light shone on top of her head, and a fuzzy feeling in Jack's chest grew even more.
He knew that the feeling he felt was happiness.
He walked up to her and encircled her arms around his waist.
