Stuck in you

Rina Yu, Nancy's cousin,

forced a smile at them with a stiff expression on her face.

"Hi..." she said embarrassedly.

She had never expected that the people she had run into at such a small mall would turn out to be Jack's wife and her cousin.

They went to a nearby tea house. The waiter served them their tea and left.

There seemed to be a clear line dividing them. Jack and Rachel were seated opposite to Rina and Nancy, while Eric was seated on a separate chair at the side of the table.

'It really is a small world. It's too bad I didn't check the lunar calendar today,' Eric thought to himself.

Perhaps the calmest one among this group of people was Jack, who passed Rachel's drink to her and began introducing everyone.

"This is Miss Rina Yu and this is Miss Nancy Guo. They're my guests." He didn't give a detailed introduction of the two ladies, but carefully mentioned their names to Rachel.

Then, he continued, "This is my wife, Rachel Shen, and that's her cousin, Eric Shen. I'm so sorry about what happened today. I just heard everything from Eric, and it was all just a misunderstanding. I'm so sorry."

"Jack, there's no need to be so serious. It doesn't matter," Rina said stiffly, though she seemed to have some difficulty getting out those words, especially when her eyes met Rachel's.

She had called Jack here to get his sympathy and affection, thinking that the two people she had run into were just insignificant passersby.

Now that she knew their real identity, she couldn't continue being arrogant and aloof anymore.

In fact, Rachel was the one putting on airs now.

Rina was filled with resentment in her heart, but at the same time, she had no choice but to please Rachel.

All of a sudden, the tables were turned.

Rina lowered her beautiful eyes slightly to hide her true feelings and said, "Ms. Shen, I'm sorry. I was being too rude just now. I was just in so much pain from twisting my ankle that I said something to offend you. It's all my fault."

Eric, who was staring disbelievingly at Rina, felt Nancy's eyes on him. When he turned to her, he found her glaring at him as if warning him not to fan the fire.

But he just turned away and ignored her.

Nancy's face turned blue, but she was accustomed to his indifference.

Lowering her head, she poked her drink with her straw and cursed inwardly, 'You asshole!"

Even while apologizing in this precarious situation, Rina had been sly enough to address Rachel as "Ms. Shen" instead of "Mrs. Fu."

However, Rachel was so annoyed that she didn't notice this.
