Stuck in you

Rona and Jack sat face to face in a relatively quiet corner of a cafe.

She was a little nervous as she told him random stories about Celine.

The truth was, she wanted to confirm if Jack and Celine had really broke up.

But she was too scared to ask him directly, so all she did was beat around the bush.

Jack knew that since they'd broke up, Celine had been looking for ways to return to him. However, he had always avoided her.

His patience had worn out and he would not get back together with her.

He didn't even touch the coffee in front of him as he tried to listen to her. Eventually, he said impatiently, "Thank you for the information, but there's really no need for you to tell me about her." He pushed the cup of coffee slightly and stood up. "I've already paid for the coffee. I have something else to do, so I'm leaving now."

Rona was a little stunned. Jack's attitude seemed to have confirmed one thing.

She also stood up and looked at him with widened eyes. "Did you break up with Celine?" she asked nervously.

Her voice was a little loud and it attracted the attention of other customers.

Jack frowned with displeasure. Rona apologized immediately in a low voice, "I'm sorry. My voice was too loud."

Jack didn't answer her question directly but simply said, "She has her own life and I have mine too. Miss Zhou, please tell her that since she knows me well, she should know that I don't change my mind easily."

Rona wasn't actually interested in relaying his message to Celine. She was more interested in something else. So she grasped the edge of the table, took a deep breath and bit her lower lip before she asked, "Is it because of Rachel?"

Hearing her words, Jack looked at her coldly. "My private affairs have nothing to do with you."

It was clearly a warning. Rona immediately understood it so she didn't dare to ask more.

Her lips curved into a forced smile and she apologized again awkwardly, "Sorry. I'm so sorry."

For the last time, Jack said again, "I'm leaving." He then turned and walked away without looking back.

Rona watched his receding back with a complicated look on her face.

Her heart filled with different emotions. She thought of Celine first, then of Rachel.

She realized, Jack would only stop being cold if he was in front of the woman he liked.

Jealousy immediately overwhelmed her heart. She started to feel restless and uneasy.
