Chapter 925 Being Surprised
Chapter 925 Being Surprised
"What's wrong?"
"You look like a tough girl. You should wear a skirt!" Mrs Baxter pulled her, "I bought one for you this afternoon. Let's go and have a look!"
Before Rae could respond, she had already been pulled upstairs. After entering into the bedroom and opening the closet, Rae was showcased a lavender dress, which was very elegant at first glance, and underneath which there was a pair of golden flat shoes.
"Your feet are not recovered, so you can just wear a pair of flat shoes. Although not as pretty as wearing a pair of high heels, but it’s good enough! It's a little bit cold, so I bought you a white sweater shawl, which you can put whenever you need!"
Rae felt that this was not her style of dressing, but Mrs Baxter was very enthusiastic. So Rae went to change as she was told!
In a short time, Rae came out after changing and found that she looked totally different in the mirror!
Indeed, the dressing matched perfectly with her skin, her eyes being big, and her face being quite delicate.
Mrs Baxter was very satisfied, "Go ahead! If a man accosts you, you talk to him sincerely and properly. If you are worried about his identity, you can check his background. If you can't do it, your father will hire a private detective to investigate his background!"
Once again, Rae was speechless, "I'm going out with my friends to have fun, but now dressing like this is like attending a party. It’s not a blind date!"
"This is suitable for a party too. You have injured your feet anyway. You have no choice but to be obedient and ladylike in this dress. So it's okay to dress like this!"
"Okay then!"
This time, Rae was finally allowed to leave the house for fun.
When she walked out of the villa area, Ophelia's car was already waiting at the gate.
Before she even got on Ophelia's car, she could already hear her whistling!
Rae got on the car and heard her laughing, "Holy shit! I even can’t recognize you!"
After saying that, she reached her hand out and untangled Rae's hair, "Just drape it like this!"
Originally, she had tied her hairs in a braid. When the hair was draped, the long hair draped over her shoulders, making her looking a lot more mild and beautiful.
"Where are you taking me to? Is it okay for me to dress like this?"
"Take you to see handsome men! Increase your immunity to Marcel in case you lost your rationality and forget to react normally in front of him. Once you are immune to him and do not look at him submissively, he will never be able to forget you!" Ophelia always had her theories and not a few.
Rae said: "I feel like attending a blind date!"
"Me too!" Ophelia pointed to herself. "You've already consciously changed the clothes, saving me from taking you to buy new clothes!"
"Uh!" Rae looked at her who was also wearing a dressing. It was burgundy, which was pretty and coquettish and also Ophelia’s favourite color. Ophelia looked so attractive and charming in the dress.
The car was racing in the dark light.
When they arrived, Ophelia found that they were in front of the YS Club!
Rae had once come here.
The experience last time was not good. This time, she was a little bit hasty.
Before she could finish being hasty, she bumped into a familiar person head-on!
She was immediately stunned!
At the moment, the man on the opposite was armed by an enchanting woman. They were holding hands in hands, and their facial expression was so happy as if they were a couple deep in love.
Yes, it was Marcel!
And Rae found that the woman next to him had a very beautiful face, but she did not know who she was!
The moment when the four eyes met, not only was Rae surprised, but Marcel was also surprised!
He did not expect to meet Rae in the YS Club, not speak of her dressing fashionably.
Rae in this dressing not only surprised him, but also stunned him.
A look of amazement flashed in his eyes, and then he quickly calmed down.
Her eyes looking upward, she did not lower her head when she saw Marcel. At this moment, she heard a female’s voice, "Marcel, today I won’t drink that much! When I woke up with you this morning, I had a headache, and it still hurts!"
That voice, so cool, reached into Rae's ears, and her eyes suddenly fixed.
However, the woman holding Marcel's arm showed a bright smile.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
And Marcel also intimately wrapped his arm around her, lowered his head and murmured near her ear.
Rae was shocked by their intimate behavior in public. So does Ophelia who opened her mouth and did not know what to say.
He said he had been alone for several years, and now the beauty was in his arms. So is he lying?
Rae really can't understand Marcel this time.
She didn't have any expression. From the bottom of Ophelia's eyes, sense of ridicule and disdain emerged.
At this moment, Marcel and the woman came towards them. Looking at Rae, he greeted. But his voice was so gentle as he said to the woman, "You should have slept for a day as I told you."
"Sleeping for a day must feel sore! It's all your fault last night that exhausted me!" What the woman said was so ambiguous.
Rae suddenly lowered her head, staring at her toes and not knowing what she was thinking!
When Marcel walked to her, she suddenly raised her head, with her eyes staring at Marcel's.
However, he just gave her a glance without saying a word and simply passed by.
They walked into the YS Club holding hands in hands.
Seeing this, Rae suddenly felt her eyes about to cry.
Of course Ophelia had witnessed everything that just happened, but she glared disdainfully at them and said, "Holy shit, men couldn’t be more bitchy!"
Rae did not reply. Her gaze did not wander. She was just standing there in silence, allowing Ophelia to pull her into the club.
Rae didn't know where Ophelia was taking her to or whether they planned to come to the club before. Now being dragged into the bar by Ophelia, Rae was expressionless!
After walking in, Ophelia found the most favorable position at once because she was the public relations manager of the YS Club. Rae and Ophelia were arranged to a booth that could have a panoramic view over the whole club.
Sitting down, Rae found that Marcel and the woman were together in a booth around the corner downstairs with others in presence including two men and three women!
Rae did not know what they were doing, only to find Marcel lazily leaning on the back of the sofa. He had already changed his clothes, and it seemed that he had taken a shower, now being well dressed and appearing to be absolutely unfriendly.
The woman was now sitting next to him. They were so close to each other, leaning together, and talking something secret. Marcel was smiling and he was so introverted that people could not figure out what he was actually thinking.
"Okay, it's time to wake up. This man was a bad man," Ophelia could not find words to describe him, "Who is that woman he brought with him?"
Rae smiled bitterly and shook her head, "I don't know!"
"Forget it, I'll find you a better one!" Ophelia took out her own phone, searched her address list, and began to read, "How about the vice president?"
When Rae heard this, she looked up and asked doubtfully, "Is he a gentleman?"
Ophelia puffed, "Okay, you are not sad. You are not affected!"
Rae shook her head and said, "It is a shock, but when I think of the fact that he and I have no future, I feel it’s okay to see this! This is good. If our relationship came to an end, I wouldn’t feel guilty. This would be the best ending!"
As she was talking, Rae showed a relieved expression.
Ophelia sighed in her heart. There was obviously nothing she could do to this.
"He didn't fall in love with you! So, it's alright. But I'm really worried about you." Ophelia said.
When Rae raised her head and met Ophelia's eyes, she knew that what Ophelia said was right. Marcel was indeed not in love with her.
If he had fallen in love with her, he wouldn't have hurt her so hard!
"It's okay, this is a good thing. I'm fine, very calm and peaceful! Ophelia, I mean it! Don't worry about me, okay?" Rae smiled and answered, but her expression appeared to be a bit tired as if she was tired from something. However, she was still trying to smile.
Just one glance, Ophelia knew that Rae cared more or less, but this kind of conflicting and struggling mind kept her in a battle.
Ophelia also followed her sight, took a look at the scene downstairs, and shook her head, "This man is too complicated, and you can't get him at all!"
Rae shook her head, "I didn't expect anything!"
Never had she thought about their future!
"If I were you, I would have walked over and gave Marcel a slap to let him know that I am a tough girl!" Ophelia was always living so wantonly, but Rae couldn't. Rae felt that she really couldn’t do it.
She shook her head again. "I'm not that kind of person. I always leave room for others, and even if I can't, I will leave some room for myself! I don't care about the future, not speak of a long-lasting love relationship. So why bother thinking so much? Now, I just want myself feeling all okay! What did you call me here for? You said you have a surprise for me. Where is it?"
Hearing this, Ophelia slapped her thigh. "I almost forgot it. There is a friend of Reuben who is a lawyer and I intend to introduce him to you. I do not have this plan before, but seeing what Marcel have done tonight, I must do this! He’ll be here in a minute!"
Rae was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and lost her smile, "Why did you introduce a lawyer to me?"
"I'm thinking of getting acquainted with him first. In case that something happens to you in the future, you can find someone professional to help defend the case for us!" Ophelia was always farsighted and prudent.
Rae admired her and was moved by her as well. Rae said nothing except, "Okay! I'm going to the lady’s room now, and I'll not let you down later!"
"OK! It's a bit messy here. Don't run around! But since you are with me who is kind of famous here, no one dares to mess with you!" Ophelia said.
"Well, got it!" Rae went downstairs to the lady’s room.
She didn't turn her attention to Marcel instead she walked straight over there, casting not even a glance.
She straightened her skirt as soon as she entered into the lady’s room. Because she rarely wore skirt, she was not used to it and couldn't help but tug at the hem of her skirt and straighten the folds near the waist. She went to the toilet first, washed her hands when she came out, and looked at herself in the mirror. In addition to her face being a little bit pale, she looked calm. The face in the mirror was still young, but how came she didn’t enjoy her life in the world arbitrarily, Except for hiding and tolerance, she did nothing she really wanted to do. She could not help but sigh. While, just let it go!
When she came out, she saw Marcel standing in the middle of the men's and women's toilets. He saw her, took a big step towards her, and with suspicion in his eyes said in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?"
Rae stood straight and smiled gently, "What? You can come, so why can’t I? The YS Club is a property of the James family, not the Hopkins, right?"
Marcel frowned unhappily as Rae responded to him ironically.
Rae, however, did not care, her face still with a slight smile so decent that Marcel could not help but want to tear the disguise and peek at the real face underneath.
"Talking to me in this way, are you trying to quarrel with me?" Marcel asked in a low voice.
Rae bowed her head and smiled, "I have something else to do, so I am going to leave. Goodbye, Marcel!"
After saying that, Rae headed out.
When she was leaving, Marcel grabbed her wrist and said viciously, "Damn it!"
He dragged her to the men's room, which shocked Rae that she immediately retracted her hands and tried not to get into the men's room. Luckily, there was almost no one inside, otherwise Rae would have
died of shame!
"You let go of me!" Rae slapped his arms.
But Marcel did not let her go. He dragged her into the toilet, closed the door, trapped her between himself and the door panel. He looked at Rae's brows and eyes from above, and then opened his mouth and whispered, "Why you dressed so beautifully? is this a surprise for me?"
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Rae's voice was very low. She didn't want anyone to hear that a woman had entered into the men's room.
Remembering their experience last time in the toilet of the YS Club, she couldn't help but blush. Now, she was not in the mood to recall those either sweet or heartbreaking memory. She was really not in the mood.
Instead, Marcel held up her chin and whispered, "Look at me and tell me, what are you doing here dressing so beautiful?"
Rae bit her lips and said, "Why should I tell you?"
"I am your man. That’s why." Marcel asked rhetorically.
Rae was surprised to hear, then puffed and laughed. Her man? Her man was holding another woman's hand. What was happening? She wouldn't dare to make a fool of herself.
"What are you laughing at?" Marcel scolded angrily.
"I'm laughing at my man who is holding another woman's hand and who walks by me like a stranger. I'm like a mistress and still don't dare to say hello. My so-called man doesn't even look at me, so why you say you are my man? Isn’t it funny?" Rae lifted her eyes looking at him, "I think we have difficulties in communication! There is a cognitive gap, so I can't catch you!"
Hearing those words, Marcel's depressed eyebrows suddenly unfolded, and then, he laughed, "Are you jealous?"
Rae was surprised to hear this word!
Jealous?
Of course!
Of course she was jealous!
Whether she was by his side or not, as long as he was with another woman by his side, the sour feeling in her heart could not be suppressed.
Rae didn't talk to him again, just pushed him away and prepared to leave.
But her hand holding the door handle was stopped by him. He twisted her body and lowered his head to stare into her eyes, "You are jealous!"
This time, it was a definite tone.
Rae blushed at the remark. She didn’t want to admit it just for her last dignity.
However, he wouldn't let her have it, and his sharp gaze left nowhere for her to hide her real feeling.
