Trapped In Lace

Rachel stopped Eric and told the bodyguard. "Don't worry. We're not leaving. But there are so many passers-by. Since we're in the way, maybe we should go to a quieter place."

The bodyguard shifted his sight away from her eyes and looked around them. They were indeed standing at the elevator and there were so many people around.

People had been staring at them curiously for the past few minutes.

After thinking for a while, the bodyguard thought what Rachel said made sense.

He pursed his lips and reluctantly told Rachel, "Move to the side."

Eric was pissed off by his attitude.

"Do whatever the hell you want. I'm not moving an inch. I'm going to stay down here."

He had always been impatient. It was true that he bumped into the woman, but he already apologized. He couldn't understand why he was still being treated like a criminal.

Upon hearing that,

the bodyguard had a sullen look on his face.

"You hurt her, and yet you are being so arrogant, huh?"

Eric retorted, "I've already apologized again and again. You're the one who's been acting so arrogant all this time. I don't understand what you want from me! Are you asking for compensation? Do you want us to call the police? What's with that poker face of yours, huh?"

"Eric!" Rachel tried to stop him. Unfortunately, he wasn't ready to listen to her. "Rachel, I know it was my fault that I hit her, but I didn't mean to do it! I've already apologized to her. If she go

"It's too noisy here. Let's go somewhere we can all settle this in private," Rachel said to Jack.

"Okay."

The woman next to Jack did not look pleased. She was about to say something, but Jack removed her hand from his arm.

The woman was taken aback, but found that Jack would not even cast her a glance. His attention was now solely focused on Rachel. "Let's get out of here. Where do you want to go?"

Nancy was especially surprised. She wondered if she was really looking at the rumored coldhearted and callous CEO of MK Group. How could he be so gentle to Rachel?

The woman tried to put her arm around Jack again, but he avoided her. She was even more maddeningly disappointed by what she saw next.

Jack walked beside Rachel and put his arm on her shoulder. "Miss Yu, this is my wife. I don't know what happened between you, but if it's any consolation, I apologize for the inconvenience that they caused you," he said to the woman in black.

The expression on their faces changed. The askance and arrogance they all held changed into embarrassment, and it was clearly painted on their faces.

Nancy was devastated when she heard what Jack said. No wonder Eric dared to challenge Jack in such a brave manner.

She saw the annoyed look on Eric's face, while Rachel remained expressionless.

She couldn't tell whether Rachel was happy to see Jack or angry.
