Stuck in you

Chapter 229 Bailed Out

Celine's tears flowed freely down her cheeks and they made her look miserable and pitiful.

Baron was not able to say anything. The entire time, he had thought that Celine accompanied Jack to the police station.

Or that maybe they were both arrested while they were together.

And either one of these scenarios where unbearable for Baron. He never received any information about why Jack and Celine were at the police station while he drove all the way there in his car.

But now that he knew the truth of what really happened. It was actually his buddy who had tried to violate his woman.

Baron felt extremely ashamed of himself and how he acted earlier. He had even planned to have a huge fight with Celine to boost up his damaged ego.

But after he heard the story of what really happened, he was too ashamed to admit his fault. The sight of Celine looking so helpless and pathetic made him feel so sorry for her. He slowly reached out his hands to her and pulled her close to him. "I'm so sorry, honey. I should not have been so mean to you earlier."

Celine immediately lowered her head and closed her eyes to hide the disgust that she felt. She leaned her head forward into his arms, accidentally hitting the area where he was punched.

Baron gasped in pain. She pretended not to hear him and immediately started to cry loudly.

Her loud crying made Baron feel so guilty. He gritted his teeth hard and endured all the pain.

He pretended to be a tender and good boyfriend to her as he gently comforted her. He apologized to her gently.

His attitude changed so suddenly, and Celine took advantage of this by bending over to his shoulder and sobbed.

Her eyes were filled with indifference. She knew his biggest weakness was his keen on face-saving.

And the knowledge gave Celine the advantage and ability to manipulate him.

In the meantime, Rachel took a shower and then changed into her pajamas afterwards. She sat on the bed as she wiped her long hair with a soft towel.

When Jack could no longer wait anymore, he approached the bedroom door and knocked. It was just when Rachel's hair was already half dry.

The sound of his knocking suddenly paralyzed Rachel, and for a moment, her hands seemed like they were frozen in place. She turned her head slightly away from the door and ignored him. She then continued to dry her hair.

Outside the room, Jack patiently waited for a response to his knocking. Even after a time of getting no response, he still continued to knock on the door.

But Rachel never responded to the knocking. She continued with her own business and took out the hair drier. She tried to convince herself that she was not supposed to feel anxious. That she should remain calm.

The knocking on the bedroom door continued for a while and then stopped.

Rachel stopped when the knocking stopped. She strained her ears and listened carefully for any sound that came from the door. She didn't know if Jack left or not.

After a few moments of listening, she heard no other sound that came from the door.

She hesitated for a while and then forced herself to smile bitterly. 'He doesn't even have the patience to coax me,' she thought.

She convinced herself that she could easily remain calm. However, after she had finished, she was eager to hear Jack knock again, but the knock never came.

She expected him to explain to her what really happened. On the way home, Jack looked like he wanted to say something, and Rachel was able to see this right away. But when they got home, she closed the door to the bedroom and left him outside.
