My Second Husband novel Chapter 1192

At that time, there were not many people having their meal in that restaurant.

Rachel and Sierra were sitting at a corner, where there was not a single person around them.

After Eddison went to the counter, Sierra started to pick up the cutlery while making a joke about Rachel and Eddison.

"Rachel, why didn't you tell me that you two are an item? I even talked to you about him a few days ago!"

Rachel was a little embarrassed, "Well, in fact, we"

Sierra interrupted Rachel, "Think nothing of it, I'm just kidding! I know Eddison the best. Even if you can't win his heart, he will still take good care of you."

Rachel frowned. She didn't like the note of sarcasm in Sierra's voice. As she expected, Sierra hadn't come to give Rachel her blessings.

Rachel took a fork and toyed with it.

Sierra continued to say, "Ever since I knew him three years ago, he has been taking care of me. He always makes sure that I won't get cold or hungry. I failed to notice his tenderness back then, but now when I think about it, he's definitely more caring than any of my boyfriends. Being with such a man, of course you'll be happy!"

She was implying that Eddison had liked her all the while, and Rachel managed to pick up on that.

If Rachel were to listen to her words a few days ago, she would have been flustered.

However, after getting along with Eddison for a few days, she believed in him. As for Sierra's sardonic remark, she just disregarded it.

Rachel pretended to nod in agreement as she put some tea bags into the boiled water the restaurant prepared, beginning to brew the tea.

Sierra was getting anxious as Rachel seemed unruffled by her words.

Just as she was pondering her next move, Eddison came back after placing his orders.

Sierra immediately laughed and said, "Thank you! I've bought a bottle of Coke for you. Here you are!"

"Thanks," replied Eddison. Then, he sat down beside Rachel. Rachel placed a cup of tea in front of him without saying a word.

The weather was perfect for some warm tea. It was starting to get a bit cold outside when they arrived.

He didn't expect that Rachel would notice that and that she would prepare tea for him to warm himself up.

He took a sip of the tea, leaving the Coke untouched.

Sierra felt on edge. She remembered clearly that he had never had a girlfriend, but for some reason, she felt like the two of them were an old couple, who knew each other very well.

She thought to herself, "This can't be true!"

She wondered if he was deliberately putting on an act.

Sierra was so absorbed in thought that she accidentally choked on a mouthful of Coke.

In the past, Eddison would be quite attentive to her whenever she coughed or sneezed, and would be busy serving her some water.

However, after she finished coughing, he just asked casually, "Sierra, are you all right?"

"I'm fine!"

He nodded, and then his gaze fell on Rachel again.

Sierra couldn't help but observe Rachel. To Sierra, she was merely an ordinary girl, and her looks weren't outstanding at all.

In Sierra's eyes, she was just the quiet, meek type

of girl.

She asked curiously, "Rachel, where are you from?"

Rachel answered politely, "I'm from Rosaville City!" "So, the two of you are from the same town. No wonder you are so close. It's true that well feel more at ease in a foreign country when there's someone from the same hometown by your side." Eddison said, "It's not entirely because of that. She's really an attractive girl."

Eddison's reply was sincere.

Sierra was greatly disappointed by his words. It seemed that she had really lost to Rachel.

Nevertheless, she couldn't reconcile herself to the failure. At the moment, she had lost everything but Eddison, and he had liked her first. Therefore, she wouldn't let anybody take him away.

She took a deep breath and took out a card from her handbag.

"Eddison, this is for you."

Rachel and him were both perplexed. They had no idea what Sierra meant by taking out a bank card.
