Stuck in you

Chapter 161 Supervising

Eventually, Rachel agreed to look after him for the coming days.

Soon after she made her decision, she received a call from Jonathan.

Apparently, he heard some stories through the grapevine.

He asked how she and Jack were doing lately.

Realizing that Rachel was not keeping Jack at bay, the old man got excited and requested her to take care of Jack until the latter made a full recovery.

Rachel was speechless. She was not sure who among them came up with the idea. They were father and son, indeed.

But even without Jonathan’s interference, Rachel had already decided to supervise Jack for several days.

She did not have work anyway. Besides, it would be tiresome not to find something to do.

Jonathan readied himself to persuade her patiently in case she refused, but much to his disbelief, she accepted pronto.

"Oh! Great!" Her willingness caused him to respond slowly. "I know it is inconvenient for you to take care of Jack. Just punish him if he does not listen to you," he continued brightly on the other side of the phone.

Rachel could not help but giggle.

She found this father and son very amusing.

Jack, on the other hand, did not know his father sold him without hesitation. Since he and Rachel were already on the same page, she had to move to his apartment.

He blatantly asked her to stay with him at all times.

He added to her work the task of accompanying him to some business dinner.

He argued that if she were by his side to play the role of a strict wife, he would have the excuse to resist drinking wine.

Rachel agreed that he made a point.

It was because of the two glasses of wine he drank previously at the social banquet that he was hospitalized.

She only thought for a while before she accepted.

Meanwhile, Austin smiled secretly. He certainly caught his boss's drift.

‘If the boss doesn’t want to drink, nobody could force him to do so. What an innocent woman!’

He clearly saw his boss smile like a wolf, and Rachel was a little lamb about to enter the wolf's mouth.
