There was constant movement outside the car with the crowds ebbing and flowing, but the atmosphere within was so quiet. Looking at the fiery light in Jack's deep, unblinking eyes, Rachel could feel her face burning. She pushed him aside and said, "I don't want to talk to you!"
Jack lost his balance, and his head hit the window.
"Are you okay?" Despite her anger, Rachel couldn't help but be a little worried when she heard the muffled sound.
He seized the opportunity to slide his arms around her waist and pressed her against his body. "Rachel, what do you think am I doing? Don't you know that I'm declaring my ownership?"
Looking at the smile on his face, Rachel pushed him away, primly sat up, and mumbled, "Not in this way. You don't know how weird they looked at me today."
"Why don't you give me a love bite on my neck, too? I'll go to the company tomorrow and walk around from the first floor to the twenty-eighth floor. What do you think?" Jack craned his neck and leaned forward.
An unwilling chuckle escaped from her. "I don't want to do that."
No matter how angry she was, Jack never failed to make her negative feelings dissipate, leaving her in a happy mood.
Tracy received a call from Jack, who said that he would be back for dinner.
She checked the dishes one by one and clapped her hands. "Ah, how can I forget his favorite red wine?"
She told the maid to go to the cellar to get a bottle of red wine. It was not t
shoulder and said, "Some friend you are, Jack."
He looked at the puzzled look in Rachel's eyes and explained slowly, "He knew that I would pick up Lea and Rita this afternoon."
Rachel was at a loss for words.
Jack patted the wrinkles on his shoulder and said in a clear voice, "Of course. You have to pay me back for the damage your daughter has caused!" After saying that, he tapped Rachel and signaled for her to open the door first.
Rachel glared at him. She didn't expect that this whole time, he would still have this morning's events on his mind.
Henry was confused. "Rita? What did she do?"
A trace of blush crept up on Rachel's cheeks. She quickly opened the door and ushered Henry in. As Jack was about to pass, she blocked the door with her own hands and shook a fist at Jack. She fiercely whispered, "Don't you dare mention what happened this morning again, understood?"
As the two of them stood there whispering, Henry rushed in and pushed every room door open to have a look. However, Lea and Rita were nowhere to be found.
"Do you know where they could have gone? Rachel, what did Lea tell you?" Henry's voice sounded lost and confused.
Rachel also felt strange. Before she left for work today, Lea told her that she had nowhere else to go and that she and Rita would stay there. Rachel shook her head and walked to the balcony clutching her phone, preparing to call Lea.
"Her phone is turned off," Henry reminded her.
