Stuck in you

Chapter 178 The Scheme Worked

Lea understood what Rachel was trying to imply. She nodded her head, bit her lower lip, and turned around. All of a sudden, she stepped on Henry's foot angrily.

Henry's face twisted in pain, but he somehow managed to keep his countenance. He put his arm around Lea's shoulders and turned to Rachel. "We are leaving now," he said with a smile.

When Lea saw the car parked by the roadside, she elbowed Henry's flank and said angrily, "Can't you see that Rachel is alone? Do you want her to take a taxi home?"

Henry secretly rolled his eyes. It was Jack who had told him that Lea and Rachel were here. Jack would send his man to pick Rachel up.

However, he couldn't tell Lea about it. Jack had sent him a message earlier, reminding him not to tell these two women who was the person behind all this.

Fortunately, Rachel heard what Lea had said. Henry felt relieved when she refused politely, "No, thanks. Anyway, we're heading to different directions." Then after hesitating for a while, she looked at Henry and added, "Henry, can I talk with you alone for a minute?"

Henry looked at Lea as if asking for her permission. She pushed him and said, "Go ahead."

Lea knew what Rachel was going to say to him.

So she let go of his hand, turned around quickly, and walked towards his car.

Henry was a little unhappy because Lea let go of him without any hesitation just because of Rachel's request.

When Lea left, Rachel remained silent for a while. She seemed to be deep in thought.

Henry stood in front of Rachel with a relaxed expression. He had already anticipated that she would ask him about his relationship with Lea.

Women were always like this. They wanted their friends to be treated well.

"When did you start dating Lea?" Rachel asked lightly after a while.

Although Henry had already expected the question, he was still startled because of the seriousness in her tone. He felt like an elementary school student being scolded by a teacher for doing something wrong.

When did they start dating? He contemplated for a moment.

To be honest, Henry couldn't remember when exactly they had started dating.

Before he could answer, Rachel asked another question. "Do you often fight?" Often fight?

Funny, Henry just kept on repeating Rachel's question in his mind. This time, he answered nervously, "No, we don't."

It was the first time that Rachel talked to him earnestly so Henry couldn't help feeling nervous.

"Okay." Rachel looked down and thought again for a while.

Henry wanted to ask Rachel what she really wanted to know, but he couldn't say it directly. He was afraid that she might misunderstood him. If Rachel would have a bad impression on him, she would definitely tell Lea about it.

They had been fighting a lot recently. If they continued to have more misunderstandings, they might end up losing each other.
