Stuck in you

Jack nodded. Just as she was about to exit, the girl abruptly turned around. "By the way, I haven't seen Celine for a long time. We should have dinner after work when you have time."

There was an awkward silence. Rachel glanced at both Jack and the girl. Based on what she had just said, it seemed that she was close to Celine. That had probably been why she was recruited in the first place.

Jack replied calmly, "I've been busy lately. Let's talk about it later."

"Okay..." The girl furrowed her brows in confusion, but didn't ask any more questions. She waved her to say goodbye.

When the door closed, Jack's eyes met Rachel's. They stared at each other for a while.

Her eyes looked bright for a moment before breaking eye contact. Deep inside, he felt guilty.

Still feeling awkward, Austin cleared his throat to break the silence. "Mr. Fu, please sign the papers. I'll have them processed right away."

"Okay."

He signed the documents without reading over them. Austin quickly grabbed the papers and headed straight for the door, shaking his head in disappointment.

The girl had been one of Celine's junior schoolmates. No wonder she had been surprised when she found Rachel in the room.

A few years back, Celine had managed to convince Jack into hiring her.

It hadn't been publicized that Jack and Celine had already broken up.

Jack wanted to explain to Rachel. Just as he was about to say something, he closed it, unsure about how he would have explained the situation.

Rachel broke the silence. "She's pretty cute."

"Well, she just graduated from college. She's still a little immature and needs to change her attitude when working."

She nodded her head and changed the topic. "When will you get off work?"

"Are you bored?"

There was a pregnant pause between them. Suddenly, an idea came into Jack's head. "Why don't we have dinner at the place you took me to the other night?"

Rachel frowned in confusion. "What place?"

"The snack street." He smiled at her.

She frowned as she thought Jack didn't like it there.

But his suggestion aroused her appetite. If she could choose, she would have gone there every day. The price was very reasonable and the food was delicious.
