Stuck in you

Chapter 42 Wendy's Plea

Seeing that Celine was brutally ignored, they couldn't help but let a triumph course through them.

The party didn't end until 10 o'clock in the evening. Francis came to the main hall with Wendy. And Jack and Rachel came to bid them farewell.

Francis sent them to the first floor. After saying goodbye, Rachel figured there was something amiss about Wendy's behavior. On top of that, her eyes were slightly red and her lips were a little swollen.

Her hair was disheveled, and the diamond necklace around her neck was nowhere to be found. Instantly, Rachel realized that Francis must have done something to her.

But she thought it was best to let it go. She didn't want to interfere in other people's matters. However, before she turned out, Wendy opened her mouth, looking like she wanted to say something. Yet in an instant, she closed it. Doubt and hesitancy were written all over her face.

Now curiosity had gotten the best of Rachel. She looked at Wendy, curled her lips and said, "Miss Wen, by the way, about what I asked you before..."

Wendy was a little surprised. "What?"

Rachel stepped forward and asked Francis, "Francis, can I borrow your fiancee?"

Francis had no reason to refuse. He replied jokingly, "Just don't sell her."

Wendy followed Rachel.

After walking a few steps, Rachel suddenly remembered that Jack was near them. She looked back and said to the man, "You go first. I need to have a talk with Miss Wen."

He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you there."

Francis took out a cigarette from the pack and lay it between his lips. Then he lowered his head and lit the cigarette.

Rachel and Wendy didn't go far. With a hesitant expression, Wendy suddenly grabbed her hand and whispered with excitement, "Rachel, how did you know

I was trying to stop you?"

It took a great deal of effort for Wendy to finish her sentence.

'I myself don't know how I figured it out. Perhaps it's because I've seen so many thirsty eyes like Wendy's in the hospital. They seem to be pleading for help,' Rachel thought. Rachel, on glancing at Wendy, had realized she wanted to say something to her. There was an obvious helplessness and anxiety in Wendy's eyes earlier.

In an instant, Rachel felt sympathy for her. This led her to make her mind. She wanted to know what was wrong with her.
