My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 108

Celine looked pitiful as her cheek reddened because of Lea's three slaps. Her hair was even tousled because of the impact.

Lea was known to be a good-tempered person to her friends. However, when any of them got bullied, she couldn't afford to just watch. So, when she saw Celine slap Rachel, she immediately gave her three consecutive slaps in return. This was how she defended someone close to her.

She had even wanted to punch Celine but fortunately, she was able to realize that it was quite inappropriate in a place like this. To avoid making a scene, she controlled her anger and just stared at Celine coldly.

But Celine was really good at acting. Although she was the first to hurt Rachel, she was the one playing as a victim now.

Rachel didn't want to mess with her anymore so she just quietly wiped her hair and face. Somehow, she was thankful that what Celine threw on her was only iced water, not something harmful.

Celine kept on wailing but to her dismay, no one minded her. Eventually, she got bored of crying and just stared at Rachel sharply. She was gnashing her teeth in rage. The calmer Rachel looked, the more irritated she became.

"Bitch!" she shouted through clenched teeth as she pointed at Rachel. ■d

Seeing what Celine did, Lea trembled in anger. She was about to raise her hand for another slap but Rachel pressed it down at once. To her surprise, Rachel's other hand landed on Celine's cheek.

Another slap for Celine. But this time, it was from Rachel. The crisp sound of Rachel's slap echoed all over the coffee shop. Everyone, including Celine, was stunned. She almost couldn't believe that Rachel slapped her.

She raised her hand to touch her face, eyes glued on Rachel.

Her lips trembled and soon squeezed a venomous curse out of her throat, "Rachel! You fucking bitch!"

Celine was about to pounce on Rachel but Lea alertly stepped forward and stood in front of her. She then said coldly, "If you dare to say another word, I will personally drag you to the hospital and have your mouth stitched."

Rachel squeezed Lea's hand, signaling to her to calm down. Then she turned to look at Celine.

Although Rachel looked awful right now with wet hair, she remained amazingly calm all the time. On the other hand, Celine seemed to be on the verge of breaking down. She was so angry that she wanted to tear Rachel into pieces at the moment.

Celine was about to do something but she noticed that Lea was glaring at her. Left with no choice, she controlled her hand and stopped moving.

The only thing she could do right now was give Rachel a death stare. "Rachel! Can you even be ■d

more shameless?"

'Shameless?1 Rachel was really wondering what she could have done for Celine to hate her this much.

The only reason that she could think of was Jack.

She had been putting up with Celine ever since they had met, but trouble always happened. Celine would always come to her and create problems and inconvenience.

Wasn't it that Celine should be looking for Jack and settle their issues with him?

Celine felt a bit scared when Rachel was staring at her fiercely. She made a few steps back while looking at her warily.

Rachel chuckled, "You were so brave to beat me earlier. Why looking so nervous now?"

Hearing Rachel's words, Celine seemed to come to her senses. Rachel made sense, she had nothing to be nervous about. So, she tried to keep her cool and was about to say something.

However, Rachel's next move was something she didn't expect. Rachel suddenly stepped forward, grabbed her right hand, and pressed it at the back of the chair. The pain was too much for her to endure so, Celine's scream reverberated around the coffee shop.

Lea, who was right next to her, was also startled. She had never expected that Rachel would be in a fit of rage.

When the other customers heard Celine's ■d

scream, they all came to see what was going on.

Rachel pressed Celine's hand harder at the back of the chair and held her tightly with the other hand so she couldn't move. Then she leaned closer to her ear and said in a low voice, "When Eric touched you, Jack almost cut off his hand. So, since you slapped me for no reason, should I also break your hand?"

Celine felt so painful that she couldn't utter a word. She had no idea what Rachel did to her hand but she could almost faint every time Rachel pressed it harder.

What Rachel said really scared her. Since she couldn't say a word, all she could do was sob. Although it was too painful, she struggled feebly to free her hand from Rachel's grip.

But no matter how much she tried, Rachel's grip was too tight. She gritted her teeth and shouted to Rachel angrily, "You bitch! You told me you had no feelings for him. But now you are clinging to him. Bitch! Bitch! You lied to me!"

Rachel didn't show any expression on her face, but she pressed Celine's hand harder. Celine cried out in pain again.

Lea was stunned at what she was seeing. 'Shit!

Is this Rachel? When has she become so aggressive?' she thought to herself.

"I lied to you?" Rachel asked coldly. "Very funny! What lie did I tell you? You're the one who always come to me and cause trouble. And now you're accusing me?

Celine, you are so shameless." ■d

Celine retorted angrily, "If you were not getting close to Jack all the time, I wouldn't have come to you!"
