Rachel’s frown was barely noticeable as she declined the call, lifted her glass with the others, and downed her drink in one go.
But before she could catch her breath, Zane called again.
What is wrong with this man? she thought, increasingly irritated.
She still didn’t answer, but a message popped up almost immediately. “If you don’t want me to make a havoc out of this, come out here yourself.”
Rachel nearly cursed out loud.
Jordan seemed to catch the shift in her expression. “Selena, do you need to step out for something?”
Rachel had no idea what Zane was up to, but she didn’t want him showing up and ruining the mood. “Yeah, something urgent came up at work. I need to head back for a bit. Benson, Lucy, you’re not leaving tomorrow or the day after, right? I’ll catch up with you then.”

Jordan asked, “Do you need a ride?”
“No, it’s fine.”
Rachel hurriedly grabbed her bag and coat and left. Jordan, however, noticed the subtle shift in her expression.

A cold, angry male voice came through. “Finally willing to pick up?”
Rachel stepped into the elevator and said, “What’s so urgent, Mr. Jenkins?‘

But unexpectedly, at that very moment, someone else grabbed her other arm.
“Selena, are you alright?”
It was Jordan.
Rachel was surprised.
The moment Zane laid eyes on fortas, everything clicked. That call had been from him, and Rachel had used the excuse of feeling unwell just to slip away and meet him.
A wave of anger surged through Zame. This woman is really testing me.
Jordan stood protectively in front of Kachel, locking eyes with Zane. “Mr. Jenkins, you already have a girlfriend. Don’t you think it’s a bit appropriate to be dragging another woman around like this?”
“Since when did you start meddling in other people’s business, Mr. Yates?”
“Selena is my friend, so this isn’t meddling” jordan met his gaze. “Me jenkins, isn’t this a bit much for someone who’s supposed to be my friend?”
In an instant, the tension between the two men was palpable.
Rachel never expected Jordan to follow her bere

Jordan wanted to say something else, but Rachel stopped him. “Mr. Yates, you should head back Mr. Jenkins and 1 really do have some work matters to discuss.”

“Okay.”
Not wanting the situation to escalate, Rachel stepped into Zane’s car on her own.

“You’re not even trying to hide it anymore,” he said coldly. “Getting that close to someone who’s mine–you’re pushing your luck.”
