My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 1334 The Encounter (Part One)

"Fuck off. We're not the same. I can live without a girlfriend, but you..." Tom quickly attacked Rain for his comments. Perhaps too quickly. Because he kept thinking about a certain girl, and didn't know why.

"You mad, bro? Come on, I was just joking. But duty calls. See you after work!" Rain was never one to follow the rules, being a very spontaneous guy. Even if he was one of the most important people in the company, he only did what he wanted. He even made his own schedule, never showing up at 9, and never leaving by 5. This annoyed Edward a bit. But as long as Rain did his job, Edward decided to turn a blind eye to his actions.

"Patricia, what the hell is up with your eyes?" Michelle asked loudly, as soon as she saw Patricia.

"Nothing. I'm good. I just drank too much water before I went to sleep last night." Patricia looked askance as she avoided Michelle's eyes. She was too ashamed to admit that she'd been crying.

"Still going to train? If you can't see that well you might get hurt." Michelle didn't notice that Patricia was lying. She was just worried about her. She was right, if you were concentrating on your red eyes or blinking too much, you might miss a critical turn and really get hurt.

"I'm fine, really. Don't worry about me." Patricia looked at Michelle with grateful eyes. She really appreciated that Michelle cared about her. But she wasn't about to skip training. The race was too important to her, and she was definitely ready.

"But I still don't think that it's a good idea. How about this? We skip training, go out, and have a few drinks! My treat. Sound good?" Michelle didn't know why, but she had a bad feeling about today. So she was going to try and convince Patricia to play hooky.

"But I've already changed into my on

See ya." The only reason Rain stopped to talk to Michelle was that Daisy liked her. If it weren't for that, Rain wouldn't have given her the time of day.

"Of course. Bye!" Michelle said to Rain. Unlike the girls Rain had met before, she didn't approach him on purpose. It was just a chance meeting.

Rain stopped for a second when he walked past Patricia. He glanced at her with meaningful eyes but didn't say anything. Then he quickly caught up to Tom. He was curious. There was something going on there, something he didn't quite get.

"Hey! What is it with you and that girl? I know that look, by now, my friend. You guys know each other." Rain elbowed Tom's side as he said this. He knew it. Now he just had to get Tom to dish.

"What girl? That chick you talked with at the door?" Tom pushed open the door to the box in the bar. He knew who Rain was referring to by 'that girl', but he wasn't going to make it easy for him. Rain was being too nosy.

"Cut it out. I'm talking about the other one. Isn't she Leena's bestie? Are you dating her or what?" Rain followed Tom inside and closed the door. Being his usual lazy self, he immediately plopped down on the big sofa.
