Stuck in you

Jack was sitting on the sofa with a laptop in front of him. When Eric came in, he didn't even look up.

"Why did you call me here?" Eric asked.

Jack took the glass of water on his left and sip it first before he faced Eric.

"Would you like to have lunch with your colleagues?" he asked directly.

"Rachel will bring me lunch," replied Eric.

"Well, it's a good opportunity for you to get to know your colleagues."

Jack put down the glass and looked at him with a smile.

"I'm staying so I will eat the lunch that Rachel will bring. Are you sure you don't want to go with them?" He returned to his laptop and pressed the "Enter" key.

It suddenly dawned on Eric that Jack wanted to covet Rachel's lunch. No wonder he was so hospitable to offer him a lunch outside with his colleagues.

Jack pretended not to see the disdain on Eric's face as he continued, "If you want to have lunch with them, you better go now. They are leaving soon."

"I'm not going with them. We work in the same department so I will have a lot of chances to get along with them in the future," Eric said purposely.

Jack squinted at him, his eyes turned dark. The corner of his lips raised slowly as his slender fingers tapped on the table.

"Don't you know that your department is the core of this company? Many people are dying to be in this department but unfortunately, the opportunity is very limited. If someone comes in, someone must leave to vacate a position."

Obviously, Jack was threatening him and Eric despised it a lot.

He didn't dare to say something. After all, GA Technology was a leading company in the IT industry.

Many people dreamed of working here, especially in the core department.

Eric was currently working in the IT department and he loved his work so much. That was why he was always eager to go to work since he got hired.

As expected, Jack's threat had an impact on him. He couldn't do anything but accept his offer.

"Don't get me wrong, okay? I just want you to get along well with your colleagues. I'm sure it will be the best for both of us," Jack added. 'Screw you! You don't need to find an excuse. I know that this is just one of your tricks.'

Feeling defeated, Eric couldn't help cursing Jack in the back of his head as he stepped out of the office.

When he returned to his desk, it was already lunch break so everyone was packing up.

The man sitting next to him said, "Eric, let's have lunch together."

"Sure," he replied cheerfully. He then turned off his computer and went out with him.

Rachel was driving to the company to bring Eric's lunch. When the traffic light became red, she stopped and looked at her watch. She thought that she might be late for his lunch break.

She was feeling agitated when her phone rang. She pressed the Bluetooth earphone to answer it.

It was Eric. He called to inform her about the sudden lunch out of his department.
