Stuck in you

Chapter 46 The Aggravated Condition

After Jack apologized, Rachel became quiet because of astonishment. All she did was follow Jack. When he walked towards another restaurant, she was surprised and immediately asked him, "Are you still hungry?"

"No, I'm not. I'll just buy one to try their food."

Saying nothing more, she watched Jack go in.

Rachel did not wait for long. Just a few minutes after, Jack came out. Then, he walked to the next one. She was now confused when she saw him ready to enter the restaurant. "Jack, isn't that meal in your hand not enough yet? Are you going to buy something from all the food shops?"

This time, Rachel hit the nailed right. Jack explained that he only planned to buy something from the restaurants which were packed tonight. He wanted his men to have a taste of their specialties.

After Jack explained, Rachel was speechless. Mouth twitching, she asked again, "Is it really necessary?"

Not wanting to explain further, Jack didn't answer anymore. Instead, he continued to walk. He didn't choose noodles as noodles would lose their flavor after a while.

He only chose pasties, braised meat and something that wouldn't lose its flavor in a period of time.

As Rachel accompanied Jack silently, she already understood his reason for his actions.

Though Jack wasn't aware that such a food street existed, he was familiar with all the food sold here. After all, they were all traditional food, and Jack knew them.

What he was doing was not strange at all. There were people like him. But what made it peculiar was Jack doing it himself.

Never did she think that Jack would be so ordinary like those people in this street. After the fourth shop, Rachel was really curious now. She couldn't help but ask him, and he explained everything to her.

Jack brought them because he was wondering if he could introduce them to MK Group's malls.

Hearing his explanation, Rachel was speechless again. This side of Jack was unfamiliar to her.

Her perception of him was someone who had high standards. But he really piqued her interest by eating with her here and doing his own food hopping.

Couldn't control herself anymore, Rachel finally asked, "Jack, is there something wrong with you?"

Remembering Jack's apology earlier, she thought of his promise to her.

If it was not for that promise, Rachel would not waste her time and energy with him here.

Stopping, Jack glanced at Rachel coldly. When she saw him look at her that way, she felt goose bumps all over her body.

Finally coming back to his senses, Jack looked at the items in his hands and thought they were enough. "Let's go back," he declared.

'Humph! So, who really enjoyed this trip?' Annoyed, Rachel closed her eyes.

Seeing her expression, he thought that she was not feeling well again. Jack asked frowning, "How do you feel? Do you feel bad again?"

Waving her hand weakly, Rachel closed her eyes and said, "Don't talk to me."
