Have I Told You Lately novel Chapter 128

The man held her arm and said gently, “She’s your friend. I can invite her for you, but I cannot eat with her for you.”

Lillian, “...”

The man was really straight-forward.

Rachel rolled her eyes and looked at him emotionlessly, “Then are you entertaining the guest or having meals for free?”

“Whatever you think. I have already booked the seats. We can go now.” Kenneth did not let go of her arm. His handsome face was calm and peaceful.

Rachel stared at his hand for a few seconds. She suddenly laughed quietly, “You wanna force me? I do not have the right to refuse?”

No smile was on her face, and a sense of cold ridicule was within her eyes.

She felt that he was becoming more and more shameless. So shameless that he even forgot how to respect her as if he could make any decision for her. Though she was angry, he simply let her yell and get mad, still, he wouldn’t change his attitude at all.

Politely speaking, it was graceful of him. Frankly speaking, however, it was like an annoying stalker.

She was really made sometimes. Anything that went out of her control would make her fluster. She was mad at both of him and herself.

Kenneth seemed to have already foreseen her attitude. He did not even frown, still holding her hand. He smiled lightly, “I am not forcing you. I just went to your apartment in the morning, and your mother asked me to take good care of you.”

Rachel, “...”

The woman’s expression seemed to froze, dark and gloomy.

After a while, she curled her lips up coldly, “Lillian is here. No need for your worry, Mr. Shawn.”

The man’s profile was perfectly profound. His handsome face was as calm as usual. His eyes scanned across Lillian, “Miss Chou must be busy in the afternoon. It’s not good to always bother her.”

Rachel frowned and looked at Lillian.

The latter was surprised and suddenly seemed to think of something. She hurriedly nodded her head, “Right, right, right. I realize that I still have to go shopping with my mom. Rachel...I might not be able to stay with you.”

“...”

The way Rachel looked at Lillian became strange.

Who was the girl helping?

Lillian sweated guiltily under Rachel’s gaze. She looked around and took a look at the watch on her wrist. All of a sudden, she screamed, “It’s so late already? Rache, I am afraid that I can’t eat with you. My mom would kill me if she waits for too long. Well, Mr. Shawn, I will leave Rachel to you. See you.”

“Hey, Lillian...”

The woman ran so fast that she disappeared right after finishing her words.

Rachel was pissed by the betrayal of her friend and her expression changed greatly.

Could her acting skill be more exaggerating? She just left her alone?

“Why do you have to trouble others when you can’t deal with your own business?” The man’s mild voice rose.

Rachel’s face turned cold. Staring at him, shaking off his hand, she yelled, “Not even the police can deal with a person as shameless as you. Go away. Stop following me.”

Kenneth stepped forth and hugged her shoulders. He powered slightly and hugged the lady into his arms. His voice got soft, “Go eat first. I will send you back later. Ok?”

Rachel’s body stiffened. Her body leaned against his chest, sniffing the smell on his body. As she thought of the conversation with Lillian this morning, her mind went chaotic. She pushed him hard, and her tone was nearly begging, “Kennet, can you stop being like this?”

He had been intervening in her life back and forth, did he realize how much she struggled?

Did he realize how much she missed those occasional tenderness? If it kept being like this, she would really regret divorcing.

Her throat tightened, and her mouth became extremely dry suddenly. A sense of sadness surged in her heart. Her dark eyes filled with tears.

Rachel lowered his eyes and his body trembled slightly.

She cried?

“Rachel?”

Her eyes were red as though she felt very sad. There was a delicate and touching tenderness in her.

Kenneth was lost slightly, holding her shoulder with his hands. His eyes gaze over tightly. His raucous voice was like a deep sigh, “My fault. Please don’t cry. If you don’t want to see me, I will go now.”

Perhaps she was really annoyed by him.
