As she neared, she captured the attention of nearly everyone present.
"Hey handsome, how about a drink?" she suggested boldly to Andres, without a hint of hesitation. Her hand rested gently on his shoulder, playful yet suggestive. Bending slightly forward, she showcased her neckline, adding to her seductive charm.

Rachel was startled by his action.
The woman, after a brief pause, pulled her hand back, a flush of embarrassment coloring her face. “You already have a girlfriend?" Andres gave a confirming nod.
Without another word, the woman turned and walked away.

"Next tyou're in a situation like that, giveshe warning. Youn nearly gavea heart attack." Rachel's voice betrayed her alarm.
Andres responded smoothly, "You mentioned I remind you of yourm fiance. Just, imagine you am him for a second. I'm intrigued-how exactly do we look alike?"
