Chapter 275 Came Into Conflict
Rachel failed to persuade Lea, so in the end, she agreed.
Anyway, she had heard that Alice had been forced to stay at home, so how could she come out now?
On the way to the cafe, Lea pondered about why Alice would want to meet her all of a sudden. Was Alice really afraid that she would get back together with Gregory?
She just couldn't understand why Alice was so paranoid about her relationship with Gregory, which had happened years ago, not to mention that they hadn't even been in love with each other. How could they rekindle their relationship?
Although Rachel agreed to go with her, she still secretly sent a message to Jack to inform him of their whereabouts.
She was afraid that something bad would happen, especially considering that Lea was pregnant.
When they walked up to Alice in the cafe, the latter's face changed. She hadn't expected two people to show up. However, she just glanced at Rachel before fixing her eyes on Lea, her heart filled with envy.
The first time she had met this little girl, she herself had been as beautiful as a blossoming rose.
After so many years, her face had gotten older.
But now, Lea had grown up into a beautiful woman with charming facial features.
Seeing Lea like this made Alice feel even more uneasy.
Her fear that Lea had come to take revenge grew stronger. Otherwise, how could Lea be in a relationship with Henry? It was too much of a coincidence.
Lea sat down and asked, "Why did you want to see me?"
Alice hadn't expected her to be so direc
orward, but Rachel was blocking her way.
All of a sudden, tears began streaming down from Alice's eyes, and she said hoarsely, "Take it back!"
Lea looked at her in a daze, but Alice shook the broken shard of porcelain in her hand and shouted again, "You take back what you said just now! Do you hear me?"
"Okay, okay! Yes, I take it back. Please calm down," Lea said hurriedly.
She was so tense that she didn't even realize which words Alice was asking her to take back.
Alice glared fiercely at Lea, and then threw the shard away and stormed out of the cafe.
The onlookers all made way for her. Once she was out of sight, Lea turned around and cursed, "She's fucking insane!
Rachel, are you okay?"
Rachel took a deep breath and nodded. "I'm okay."
For a moment, she had been frightened to death that the broken shard of porcelain in Alice's hand would scratch her face.
Finally, one of the waiters stepped forward and looked at the mess of broken porcelain on the floor.
He said nervously, "Hey, are you both okay?"
"Yeah, we're okay," Rachel replied. Then, after taking a glance at the mess on the floor , she shot the waiter an apologetic smile. "We're sorry to cause so much trouble."
The waiter smiled back awkwardly, not sure how to reply. Rachel added, "Please clean it up. I'll pay for it."
"We're sorry for all this trouble," Lea said as well.
The waiter finally nodded and relaxed. He waved his hands and said, "It's no trouble. But please move a little so that we can clean it up."
