Stuck in you

Chapter 19 Will You Leave Me

Recalling that Celine brought him soup a few days ago, Eric was on the verge of breaking down. He had said that he had the courage to compete fairly with Jack. However, after Jack dropped by his ward just now, he was thoroughly crushed. Jack coldly warned him against pursuing Celine.

Eric stuttered, "He...must be joking, huh? He's...your husband."

Curling her lips, Rachel said, "You have seen his cruelty several times. Do you think he will let you go just because you're my brother? Just stop it, Eric! Don't make trouble for me anymore. If you something bad happens to you, I have to commit suicide to apologize to our parents!"

Eric's face turned pale. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Rachel... I'm sorry."

Again, Rachel patted him on the shoulder and said, "Have a good rest. I'm going back to work now."

"Okay," replied Eric weakly.

Since the hospital's door panel was thin, the room wasn't soundproof. Jack, who was standing outside, heard clearly their conversation.

In fact, Jack didn't take Eric seriously. And, Rachel was right. For them, Eric was just a tool Celine used to irritate him. Eric was never really a threat.

However, Jack didn't know what was wrong with him today. In a spur of the moment, he just decided to come here and warned Eric to stop pestering Celine.

In the end, he attributed it to lack of sleep and dizziness. Subconsciously, Jack touched the cigarette pack and felt the urge to smoke to cheer himself up.

At that moment, Rachel came out from the ward. Seeing that he was going to smoke, she kindly reminded him, "Hey! Remember, you can't smoke here."

Pausing a bit, he returned the cigarette pack back in his pocket. Looking at Rachel for a moment, he suddenly bent forward and whispered with a small smile, "Am I famous for being cruel? Why didn't I know about it?"

A little embarrassed, Rachel lowered her head. She knew Jack heard everything.

Because Eric was still young and inexperienced, it was easy for her to deceive him.

Admitting that she spoke ill of Jack inside the ward, Rachel cleared her throat and said, "Let's talk over there."

Having no objection, Jack followed. Though he didn't have anything to say anymore, he wanted to hear what she would say.

Not long after, Jack's phone rang loudly in the empty corridor.
