Stuck in you

Chapter 138 Unable To Explain

Lea went to the refrigerator and got two bottles of mineral water. She put one bottle in front of Rachel before opening the remaining bottle in her hand. She then tossed her beautiful curly hair and drank the water immediately.

She was so furious that she needed iced water to calm down.

After draining the bottle in half, she felt a little better.

She put the bottle on the table and sat down on the sofa. Then she asked Rachel, "What's going on between you and Jack?"

Rachel was about to say something in the car earlier but Lea interrupted her. Now, Lea was giving her a chance to speak.

"Calm down first, then I'll explain everything to you," answered Rachel.

Lea raised her chin and asked, "Don't I look calm?" She paused for a while, waiting for Rachel's reaction. When Rachel looked at her, she cleared her throat and continued, "Go ahead."

Rachel fell silent for a while. Apparently, she didn't know where to start. Lea urged her in a low voice, "Why don't you speak up? What the hell is going on?"

"Jack and I... There's nothing...

There's nothing between us," Rachel stammered. "Nothing? Do you think I'm blind? He kissed you. And now you're telling me that there's nothing going on between you?"

"It was just a kiss." Rachel blushed so she turned her head to the other side to hide it. "Nothing else."

"Do you like him?" asked Lea seriously, her face looked sullen.

Rachel was shocked with the question. "No!" she snapped. Her answer was so quick that she sounded even guiltier. Obviously, Lea also noticed it.

"No," Rachel said again. This time, her voice was very low. She couldn't stand Lea's disdainful eyes.

"You're lying!"

"I mean it."

"I don't believe you!"

Rachel felt embarrassed as she buried her face in her two hands and whispered, "A little."

"What did he do to you?" Lea inquired curiously.

Rachel shook her head and replied, "Nothing. Don't think too much." Her delicate earlobes slightly turned rosy.
