Stuck in you

For a moment, Jack suspected that he had said or had done something inappropriate in his dream last night that Rachel had heard him.

But then she said something to dispel Jack's suspicion. "Dad just asked us to live together. We don't even need to sleep in the same room. There are obviously more than two rooms in that house. Besides, Dad won't know whether you stay overnight or not. When did you become so stupid?"

He pursed his lips and replied sarcastically, "Do you really think I'm that stupid? I've already thought about that. I just want to fix this as soon as possible. I don't want to cause any more trouble."

"Okay then. Have you fixed this?"

Jack's face turned cold and he stared at her blankly. He gritted his teeth and replied, "Not yet."

Rachel raised a brow and rolled her eyes. "There is currently one option out of the divorce. But if you can find another one, I'd be more than happy to oblige to it."

Jack paused for a while and said, "Give me three days to think about it."

Jonathan was so happy that Mendes was still asleep. He wanted them to have lunch at home.

Rachel agreed to it since she had nothing else to do.

Mendes didn't get up until ten o'clock in the morning. He even changed his clothes without asking for help from Rachel. After that, she took him to brush his teeth.

While he brushed his teeth, he faced her. "Are we still at the big house from last night?"

Rachel was stunned by his question. Then she realized that he wanted to know whether they were still at the Fu family's residence. She nodded and replied, "Yes, of course."

"That's great! I like it here!" He smiled, extremely happy.

Upon seeing his reaction, Rachel couldn't help but smile as well. "Why are you so happy?"

Mendes spat out some bubbles, rinsed his mouth and placed the toothbrush back on the table. "Because I'm going to play with Grandpa Jonathan!"

Rachel was amused by his answer. She touched his head and replied, "He is actually waiting for you too. We'll see him after you wash your face."

"Hooray!" It was obvious that this child gravitated towards those who treated him well, especially the ones who were patient and spoiled him.

Rachel didn't know whether or not it was a good sign. Mendes' personality had always been affected by his family environment. She feared that if he wasn't educated or guided well in the future, he could easily walk in the wrong direction.

Rachel glanced at Mendes as he washed his face. He couldn't twist the towel dry so she intervened.

She gently grabbed the towel, wrung it dry, and hung it up on the rack.

Jonathan had been waiting for Mendes to wake up. When Mendes saw him, he ran towards his direction to hug Johnathan.
