Stuck in you

Michael stared at Rachel, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Marcus smiled his usual smile, and Jack wore a long face, his lips pressed tightly together. His eyes were dark.

Rachel slightly shifted her eyes. She had to see her other patients during her shift. What were they doing here?

Michael, the most talkative of the group, spoke first. It was the first time he had heard Rachel speak this much. And he didn't understand why she belittled herself in front of her husband's mistress.

However, before Michael could open his mouth, Rachel interrupted him. "This is the hospital. Please refrain from making noise."

Michael was about to say something, but was stopped by Rachel. He felt upset.

Even the two bodyguards who had been standing by the door were clearly affected.

Rachel had just openly reprimanded Celine. However, she wouldn't allow the others to say something.

Michael could not help mumbling, "You can't deprive me of my right to speak."

Rachel glanced at him but said nothing. She walked back toward her desk, sat down, and started sorting the documents in front of her. She wanted to go on with work as usual.

"Why are you here?" Celine asked. Although she was initially taken aback by the situation, she was now calmer. Her voice trembled slightly, however.

Jack glanced at Celine and then looked at Rachel. "We've come to see Eric."
