Stuck in you

Chapter 246 Misunderstandings Between Us

Eric gazed at Jack strangely. "Don't you know?"

"About what?"

"Nothing." Immediately, Eric smoothed his hair, trying to cover the smirk on his face.

Jack frowned. "What's wrong? Tell me."

It seemed that Rachel didn't bother to tell him of her abrupt change of schedule.

'No wonder he came here early in the morning. He doesn't know that Rachel isn't coming back today. They must've had a fight,' Eric thought.

Now, he just felt sorry for him. 'Is Rachel going to dump him?'

He crossed his arms over his chest. "You broke up with each other?"

Jack sneered at Eric's comments. "I won't give up that easily."

Eric scoffed. "Do you even know Rachel? You may not be ready to give up, but I don't think she is the same."

His words were like bullets through Jack's heart. His face hardened, and he didn't say a word.

The noise from the washing machine was the only sound echoing across the household. Eric stared at the machine for a while before he turned to Jack.

He gazed at the floor. Not being able to take it anymore, he looked up at him.

"Hey!"

Jack raised his head, indicating that he was listening.

Eric turned to look at Jack. After a few minutes of contemplation, he continued, "Are you going to wait for Rachel here?"

Jack nodded. "What time will she land?"

Finally not able to take it anymore, he burst into laughter. "She won't be landing today. Didn't she tell you?"

At his words, Jack stood up.

His gaze darkened. "What did you say?"

"She's not done with her job yet."

"When will she come back?"

Eric cocked up an eyebrow. "Am I her keeper?"

Jack didn't answer his question. Instead, he repeated, "When will she come back?"

Eric just laughed in reply. He couldn't help but feel sorry for the man in front of him. He looked like a dog who was waiting for his master to return.

However, before Eric could say anything, Jack already turned and left.

"Hey!" he called. "Don't you want to know when she'll come back?"
