Andrew possessively wrapped his arms around Rachael's waist. There was no way he would leave his wife alone with these people.
Rachael lightly gasped when he pulled her towards him. When she looked at him, he was looking at his relatives with a frown on his forehead. She could see the possessiveness in his eyes.
Lightly tucking the ends of his sleeves, she was about to say something when he looked at her and shook his head.
She wanted to tell him it was okay if he left her with them for a few minutes but the look he gave her was enough for her to understand that wasn't going to happen.
In one way, Rachael was glad that Andrew wasn't leaving her side. With so many new faces around, her anxiety was rising. But she tried to maintain her cool. She didn't want to show any kind of weakness in front of his family who clearly thought she wasn't compatible with him.
