Stuck in you

"Is that all?" Rachel asked with a tone of indifference after Jack finished speaking.

"Yes," he answered.

She smiled slightly at him and slowly pulled back her hand from him. This worried him. "You made me look like an idiot today, Jack," she said wearily.

The partition in the middle of the car was activated. Thus, the driver never heard anything about what they were talking about.

Jack was in a panic for a brief moment. He tried to hold Rachel's hand a few times more, but she avoided his advances.

Rachel slightly turned her head towards him with a look of indifference. She then looked down at the carpeted floor beneath her feet.

Jack's heart suddenly felt heavy and aching.

"Rachel," he said, almost whispering to her under his breath.

She never reacted to his words. She played with the embroidered patterns on her dress with her dainty fingers. "I thought you had an accident. That's why I rushed to the police station right away to see if you were okay. Then I suddenly felt like a fool when I found out the real reason why you were there in the first place," she said in a soft tone of voice.

Jack shifted slightly in his seat. He felt anxious after he heard what Rachel had to say.

He didn't know what to say to her.

Earlier, he had a secret plan to reward his wife for being jealous. And yet, he suddenly felt like a fool after he heard Rachel's words. Like a basin of cold water was splashed on his face early in the morning.

Rachel turned her head slightly at Jack. "Do you think so?" she asked calmly in a soft voice that was almost a whisper.

She then smiled at him mockingly.

Even if he was a smooth talker, Rachel's words and actions left him completely speechless at that moment. He knew that there was no longer any need to explain anything.

The disappointment in her eyes was so obvious that she no longer needed to say it in words.

"Let's talk about it when we get home," Jack said in a gentle voice. He gently took her hand again in his and then stared at her eyes lovingly. "Let's get home first, okay?"

Rachel said nothing but slightly nodded at him.

The events of that night made Rachel aware of something that she never expected before. The emotions that she felt showed her a reality that she never realized existed.

She had fallen in love with him a lot deeper that she thought.

She felt so jealous when she found out that Jack stood up for Celine.
