Stuck in you

Chapter 30 Don't You Want To See Me

Putting on a polite face, Rachel said, "Then thank you for driving me."

Something flashed in Jack's narrowed eyes as he looked at Rachel's face. Then, he turned around and walked ahead.

Jack drove a white BMW instead of his favorite Land Rover. Whatever his reason of changing the car, he himself couldn't say.

The same was happening to Rachel. She also couldn't figure out why Jack suddenly showed concern for her. Deep down, she felt that there was a purpose behind his actions, and it was not really out of good will.

While Rachel was silently contemplating, Jack started driving and didn't notice anything wrong with her. There was only silence between them until they reached the hospital.

As Rachel was getting out of the car, Jack said, "Be careful."

Surprised, Rachel stopped and looked at him weirdly.

Thinking that there might be something wrong with his brain, Rachel gave him a peculiar look. Jack suddenly felt confused and asked, "What's wrong?"

After a moment's silence, Rachel shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Thank you for driving me here."

It was obvious that she wanted to say something but decided not to. Jack just leaned against the back of his seat.

'Really?' Instead of asking further, he calmly said, "Well, I have to go."

Watching the car disappear along the busy street, Rachel stood still, lost in thoughts. She further analyzed that Jack might just be stressed.

When she entered the hospital, she proceeded to her office and changed her clothes. Then, she started her rounds.

Meanwhile, Celine was scared. Though she behaved lately and tried her best to be a good girlfriend, she felt Jack's coldness towards her.

She believed that she could show Jack how sorry she was through those gestures.

Before, she used to give concessions to gain his approval again and again. But, this seemed not to work this time. So, she could not be obedient and didn't dare to stir up trouble.

However, Celine couldn't understand why Jack was still indifferent to her these days.
