Stuck in you

Rick's uncle had made great effort to take the company away from Rick's father.

However, Rick came back when his uncle was at his worst. He bought the company shares from others at a very low price.

After approaching several major shareholders and the board of directors secretly, Rick successful forced his uncle to abdicate.

Moreover, Rick had also taken back the villa from his uncle.

That was why Rick was going to hold the party in this villa—to declare that he was the new owner of the villa and the company.

After walking with Rachel, Lea and Lucas for quite a while, Rick led them to the buffet hall. Then, someone came and whispered something to Rick. It seemed that someone important had arrived.

Rick nodded and snapped his fingers to get the attention of the waiter nearby. After talking with the waiter, he turned to the three of them and excused himself.

"I'll excuse myself for now. Enjoy the party," he said with a graceful smile.

"Don't worry about us, we can manage here," Lea answered.

She planted a sweet smile on her face.

When Rick turned around and left, Lea was about to say something, but a waiter came to serve them drinks. So, she waited for the waiter to leave first before she spoke. "Lucas is here to have a blind date with his sister, and yet he brought us with him. Why is Rick still so polite to us?"

Lea felt embarrassed because of Rick's politeness.

"Would you like him to kick you out?" asked Lucas.

"Well, if he came back and drove me away, I wouldn't hesitate to leave immediately," she answered with a smile. As she spoke, Lea looked around curiously.

There were not so many people in the buffet hall. Most of them were standing in small groups like them and having a chat. There was nothing interesting in particular.

Lucas checked the time on his watch and said, "Let's find a place to sit. There may be a show later." Lea winked at Rachel.

She then turned to Lucas and teased him, "Why don't you go and see how Miss Ying looks like?"

"Lea!" Lucas snapped.

Seeing that Lucas got annoyed, Lea stuck out her tongue at him.

"Rachel and I will go somewhere else. You can look around by yourself," she added.

She then grabbed Rachel's hand and rushed away. "Let's eat something," she suggested to Rachel.

"You're acting so strange today," complained Rachel. "Why do you keep on reminding Lucas of that blind date? You are already pissing him off." They were already far from Lucas so he wouldn't hear them anymore.
