Stuck in you

Rachel tightened her fist inside her pocket. After a moment, she nodded and replied, "Yes."

Suddenly, Hiram turned a cold glare at the two people who pressed her from behind and ordered, "Take your knives away from her! Don't you know how to treat a woman gently? See how you're scaring Miss Shen!"

Rachel frowned, her eyes flashing with anger.

"Yes, Mr. Yi."

His two subordinates obeyed him. They immediately withdrew their sharp knives away from Rachel's waist.

Rachel breathed a sigh of relief. Hiram clapped his hands, and the two men behind Rachel left the room quietly.

"I'm so terribly sorry if they scared you. Please have a seat."

Rachel was disgusted by his courtesy, but she was still quite worried. She wondered whether the man in front of her was up to something fishy, or just "wanted to talk."

Still unsure of her safety, but unable to ask for help, Rachel wisely and quickly decided to obey him. She said "Thanks" to him calmly, without allowing her face to reveal her feelings.

The other people on the sofa were all staring at her. Rachel's face still looked calm, but her heart was full of anxiety. She chose a seat at the side and sat down.

At that moment, those people suddenly exchanged mysterious glances and smiles with each other.

Although Hiram seemed to be intrigued by something about her, Rachel turned a blind eye to him.

Her hands, still in the pockets, were sweating.

The man sank down into a seat next to her. Rachel gave him a slight frown.

He crossed his legs casually and snapped his fingers to the quiet crowd, saying, "What are you doing? Come on! Continue with your own business!"

With that order, the almost motionless crowd stirred. When the light in the room went down, the colored lamps hanging from the ceiling began to revolve again.

Someone picked up the microphone, clicked the music on the screen and continued singing. The wave of heart-rending music that filled the room almost made Rachel's ears burst.

Some of them began drinking, laughing and clanking their bottles together; smoke soon reached the tip of her nose.

No one paid any attention to her, even Hiram. A sexy woman soon came over, and he joined her.
