Stuck in you

"Take the key to the apartment. I'm going back to work."

Rachel handed Eric the key to the newly rented apartment.

"Okay." Eric was secretly glad that he was finally discharged from the hospital. After being stuck in the hospital ward for so long, he wanted to go out for some fresh air.

After Rachel left, he couldn't wait to close the door. Then, he changed his clothes and went out.

By then, it was completely dark outside, and he didn't really have anywhere to go.

Meanwhile, in JH Bar, Celine was drinking alone.

The pub was just starting to get crowded, and people were twisting their bodies crazily on the dance floor. Celine stared at these people in a daze as she thought about the first time she had met Jack here.

In the end, she had been deceived by him. He had said that he loved her and that he would marry her one day. Nonsense! It had all just been lies.

If he really loved her, why would he have let Rachel humiliate her?

From what Rachel had said this afternoon, it was obvious that Rachel looked down on her. In Rachel's eyes, Celine was nothing but a shameless mistress.

'So what? I don't care if you look down on me or not. Even though you're Jack's wife, he doesn't take you seriously,' Celine thought vindictively. Then, with a wicked smile on her face, she made a phone call.

'Since you care so much about that brother of yours, I'm going to play with him,' she thought. She took a sip of wine as she waited for Eric to answer the phone.

At that moment, Eric was having dinner alone at a restaurant in his neighborhood. He had called several friends but they had all told him that they had no time to come out for dinner.

All of a sudden, his phone rang. As soon as he took a look at the screen, the frustration on his face vanished.

"Why are you calling me, Celine?"

At the other end of the line, Celine laughed. "What's wrong? Can't I even call you?"

"No, no, I mean, you've never called me before. I'm just so happy now."

Celine sighed helplessly. "Since I can't go to the hospital to see you, I'm calling to comfort you."

As long as she could capture Eric's heart, no matter how arrogant Rachel was, she wouldn't be able to do anything. Besides, she wanted to see what on earth Jack would do.

Eric's eyes brightened up. He said cheerfully, "I've been discharged from the hospital, so you don't need to go there anymore. We can meet outside from now on."

Celine's smile deepened; she hadn't expected that she would be able to put her plan into action so soon. "Well, I'm in JH Bar now. Would you like to join me?"
