His still sounded as if he didn't care, he even sounded doubting.
"No matter what you think, we surely are friends." Rae smiled and said, "I think if you are soul mates, it doesn't matter if you get to know each other sooner or later!"
"Rae, Don't waste your time on him, he doesn't have friends, he is not a normal person!" Ophelia scolded Reuben while gritting her teeth, this was like the saying that sadomaso love was deep.
Reuben didn't even care for what Ophelia said, he only looked at Rae, his eyes were sharp. "Maybe if someone else said this, I would have believed it, but why do I not believe you when you are saying it? What? We haven't met in seven years and now you pretend like you don't know me? Are you afraid that your so called good friend will be angry?"
After hearing this, Rae was a little shocked, then she was surprised, did Reuben and Rae know each other?
Ophelia was surprised, "What do you mean?"
Reuben looked at Ophelia, he suddenly laughed, only that this laughter was very cold, then he suddenly said, "This woman slept with me seven years ago, now she is your good friend! Ophelia, do you still think that you can be friends?"
After saying that, Rae and Ophelia were both so shocked that their jaws dropped, they didn't speak for a long time.
Rae was warned, what kind of private life did the real Rae have?
She didn't know anything, so she could only keep quiet when Reuben said that!
Because the more she said, the more she showed herself.
Now, she could only stay silent.
Ophelia's eyes flashed a little hesitation, but she humphed, "So what? Reuben you have ruined so many women, do you want to scare Rae now as well?"
"Haha!" Reuben suddenly laughed, "It seems that you want to have a threesome, Rae, what do you think? Can we still go back to the old times?"
This was not a good meeting.
Rae was very shocked in that moment.
Reuben brought her so many news and impact which was extremely stunning.
Rae looked at Ophelia, her face turned pale, Rae knew that no matter if Ophelia knew that she was Natalie, but Reuben still used to date the real Rae before, and this was hitting Ophelia hard.
Maybe Ophelia was not like the way she said, maybe she was only his mistress, she might have already put feelings into it, and seeing her, she must have fell in deep.
Rae knew that if she said nothing, Reuben would only continue harder, but what could she say to make him stop his hating on her, she didn't know.
And Ophelia, she didn't know how to comfort.
She thought about it, and looked at Reuben, then she said, "Mr. James, I admit that what you said to me was so unprecedented, I was shocked! But I had a car accident five years ago, and a lot of the things that happened, I do not remember anymore! So, I am sorry about what you told me, I cannot admit anything! I won't deny anything either. But Mr. James, you are saying all these to destroy the friendship between me and Ophelia, why would you do that? You are the only reason to know it!"
Reuben squinted his eyes after hearing so, it carried a little danger in them as he looked at Rae. "You had an accident? Haha, this really is a good excuse, Miss Rae, do you think we are shooting some drama here? You actually are telling me about amnesia? Not bad, you live your life as if it is a movie, I admire you! It just that a person like you still have the courage to live, I admire it!"
Rae's eyes turned more and more natural, "Ophelia knows what kind if a person I am, I know what kind of a person I am, I have nothing to hide, that is enough! If you think that you can affect me with what you are saying, then you are wrong! I live for myself, and not for any of your cruel goals. Mr. James, sorry, I made you disappointed! If you want to continue admiring me, go ahead, but I will still be alive, I will live well!"
Reuben suddenly stood up, then he grabbed Rae's wrist, before neither Rae nor Ophelia reacted to it, he dragged Rae towards the bedroom.
"Reuben what are you doing?" Ophelia's first reaction was to go and help her, but Reuben already pushed her aside.
Rae's wrist hurt a lot and she screamed in terror, "What are you doing!"
Reuben already dragged her to the bedroom, and smashed the door closed with a bang.
Outside, Ophelia was on the floor, pitiful, she got up again, and ran to the bedroom, she banged on the door, "Reuben, you asshole, I am warning you, Rae is not the same Rae anymore, don't think that you can affect me with those things that nobody can ever find out. I am telling you, I don't care!"
In the room, Reuben had already pushed Rae onto the door, Rae couldn't move at all.
"Let go of me!" She looked up, she was very frightened in that moment, but it also got silent, she knew she had to face Reuben, because as soon as she backed off a little, there would be a problem. Rae stared at him, she didn't blink her eyes, even though she was skinny and weak, but Rae was not a little bit nervous, she looked at the dark eyes of Reuben, the only thing she was certain of was that Rae must have encountered with this man, even though it might not have been deep, otherwise, Reuben wouldn't have looked at her with such hot and hating eyes.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
