Stuck in you

Chapter 251 Jack Was Scolded

Maybe Rachel was suffering from a concussion. She closed her eyes, trying to relax herself. Suddenly, she heard the door open. When she opened her eyes, she caught her breath. Was she dreaming?

Jack froze for a second when he saw that she was awake. He came over to the bed, staring at her. It was as if he had just seen an angel. His mind was blank, and his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, trying to get any word out.

After the near-death experience she just had, all her conflicts with Jack dissipated completely. "You're here," she said, her voice hoarse.

When he heard her voice, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand. His fingertips grazed her face. His thumb slid down from her eyebrows to her plump lips.

Jack swallowed, blinking rapidly as if he had just been in a dream. A smile played on the corners of his lips. "You're awake?"

"Why are you here?" she asked. She couldn't believe that he was the first person she could see after all her sufferings. Her heart wildly thumped against her chest.

"I was worried about you, so I came."

"They told you?"

"I just felt that something was wrong. I didn't know you were actually in danger until I inquired in the hospital."

He bent over and kissed her on the forehead. His large hand went under quilt and held her hand firmly. This time, he wouldn't let her go anymore. No words could be used to express all the emotions overwhelming his heart.

He could only lower his head and press his forehead against hers, closing his eyes.

Tears fell down her cheeks. "I thought I died," she whispered.

Suddenly, she could feel something drop on her eyelid. She raised her other hand, wanting to wipe it away. After a moment's pause, she realized that he felt the same way.

Jack's voice wobbled as he said,

"I know, but you're here now. You're safe."

No one could understand how he felt. When he heard that Rachel was buried and rescued from the rubble of a collapsed house, he felt so helpless. It was then he understood how much he felt for her.

When he arrived, he saw her lying in the bed. His heart ached at the sight. Her face was pale, and he could spot the bruises scarring her skin.

She had been buried there for nearly twenty hours.

It was then that he realized how it felt to be given back something that he thought was lost forever.
