Molly's heart contracted. Drake always made her feel stressed, while Rashad always made her nervous.
When she carefully studied Rashad's face, she could tell he looked similar to Drake, but she didn't understand why she had such a feeling.
However, she realized she had touched his nerve.
"Don't tell anyone else we've met. Do as I said. If you want to gain Drake's heart, I can help you."
Rashad's gaze sent a chill down Molly's spine. The more she looked into his eyes, the more uncomfortable she felt.
Rashad got closer to Molly, and she tightened so much that she forgot to flinch.
He whispered in her ear, "I can help or ruin you. It'll depend on what you do."
With those words, he left.
Molly couldn't return to her senses for a long time, wondering who the man was and what on earth he wanted.
When Rashad returned to the table, he had put away his gloominess, walking towards Sophia and Chloe.
"I like this restaurant. Sophia, Chloe, you've been in Sealand for many years. I guess you must know the best restaurants in town. Can we come here often in the future?"
Chloe still felt something weird. She realized Rashad wanted to be alone with Sophia. However, others wouldn't notice his purpose if she was with them.
Chloe had to admit Rashad was indeed cunning.
"I'm sorry, Rashad, but I might not come out often. As you know, I'm pregnant, so I cannot dine out too frequently."
While she spoke, she kicked Sophia under the table.
Sophia knew what Chloe meant. Actually, even if Chloe agreed to Rashad's suggestion, she wouldn't agree.
"I'm glad you like this restaurant. Let's invite Drake and Bailey together next time. By the way, you haven't met Chloe's husband, right? I can introduce you to him."
"That would be great."
Looking at Rashad, Chloe didn't see any change in his expression, which could mislead others into believing he didn't care.
However, the more he looked he didn't care, the more Chloe suspected him.
After lunch, Rashad bid them farewell. Taking Sophia's hand, Chloe reminded her, "Sophia, be careful with Rashad. His purpose of return this time isn't as simple as we imagined."
Sophia chuckled resignedly, "You are overcautious, Chloe."
"No, I'm not. Remember my reminder."
"OK. OK. I'll remember it." After all, Chloe was pregnant, so Sophia didn't want to annoy her, afraid some accident might happen.
Since childhood, Chloe had been her friend, so she knew what was on Sophia's mind.
"Sophia, you must take my words seriously. Or you cannot blame me for not reminding you in the future."
"All right. I got it. Now, Your Majesty, can you go home? If Bailey calls, I'm afraid I cannot take the responsibility."
Chloe shook her head, heaving a sigh.
She had tried her best to remind Sophia, but the latter didn't believe her intuition.
As soon as Chloe left, Sophia received a call from Drake.
"Where are you, Sophia?"
"Not far from my company. Why?" Sophia could sense his tone was unpleasant, feeling weird.
