Stuck in you

Michael gave his watch a quick glance as the waiter served them drinks. "There will be fireworks later," he said with a childish smile.

"Really?" Jack asked as he crossed his hands and sat back comfortably, "Where?"

"Well, it'll be at Ying family's garden," Michael explained with a slight laugh because Jack seemed so ignorant about it. "Haven't you heard that they organized a fireworks party?"

"Is that so?" Michael then turned to Rachel. "Why aren't you talking? Are you embarrassed that you're here with Jack?" he asked in a concerned tone of voice.

Jack raised an eyebrow as he crossed his arms on his chest. A grim look overcame his eyes.

On the other hand, Rachel smiled in amusement. "Go ahead. I'll be listening to you," she said with a smile.

Michael looked around at everyone as a confused look overtook his countenance. "What's wrong with you guys?" he asked when he saw that everyone sat very quietly. "Why are you just sitting there without saying anything?"

Marcus lightly coughed. "Say what?"

Unlike Michael, they were not talkative people. Michael could keep on talking and talking tirelessly. Jack raised a hand to rub his forehead and accidentally touched his unhealed would by accident.

He felt a stinging pain and had to put down his hand immediately.

He shifted his gaze to Rachel's direction. She remained as silent as the background. Her make-up made her face look more elegant and beautiful. She secretly glanced at her watch and frowned slightly. It was as if something bothered her.

He looked down for a moment. "You came with Lucas, right?" he asked suddenly. "Why is he not around?"

Rachel was so lost in thought that she didn't realize right away that Jack was talking to her. But she had no idea where Lucas was or where he went.

And she felt that there really was no reason for her to look for him.

Rachel looked like she just got out of a daze as she shook her head at Jack. "I really have no idea," she replied flatly.

Jack sighed inwardly. He was sure that Rachel was not that close to anybody else there.

She went there with someone she knew and stayed even though that person was no longer with her.

When Lea asked Rachel to turn to look at Lucas, the first person Rachel saw was Jack. Then she saw Lucas.

Lucas was in a conversation with a woman in a white dress who suddenly held her arms open for him. He then proceeded to give the woman a big hug.

The woman in white then turned around and walked away. It was as if Lucas met an old friend. Lea and Rachel did not ask him anything about it afterwards.
