Stuck in you

"Ugh!" Eric was about to scold Jack for his shamelessness. Hearing that Eric was cursing Jack,

Rachel's face immediately darkened. "What are you doing, Eric?"

Eric immediately froze at the sound of her voice. He slowly turned around to see her standing by the door, looking displeased.

When he turned back, Jack shrugged helplessly as if he had nothing to do with this.

With pursed lips, Rachel pulled Eric out of the room.

As Eric turned back, he could see Jack sitting by the bed with a small smile playing on his lips. It was as if he had been tricked. He gritted her teeth and let her drag him out of the room.

She crossed her arms. "You're already an adult, Eric," she lectured. "If you go out like this, what will others think of you?"

"I...I didn't really curse him!" he protested. However, Rachel wasn't convinced. "Are you really lying to me? I just saw you yelling at him."

Eric didn't really know what to say.

"Okay, so maybe I went a little too far." He finally relented.

She gave up arguing with him. With a wave of her hand, she sighed. "You shouldn't have done what you did. It's not polite."

"I just wanted to talk to him." At this point, he didn't know if he could defend himself any longer.

Maybe one day, if he wanted to pick a fight with Jack, he should do it when Rachel was not around.

Hearing what he had to say, Rachel finally relaxed, but she was still perplexed as to what was happening around her. She thought for a moment before lowering her voice. "Why do you want to talk to him?"

Eric narrowed his eyes. "Did you forget what happened?"

"Yes," she answered. Helplessness threaded around her voice.

"Even the fight with him?"

"Fight?" Her eyebrows furrowed over doubtfully as she tried to think it over. "I fought with him?"

Just as Eric was about to say something, Jack interrupted them, "You can ask me if you want to know what happened. I can tell you."

They turned around to see that Jack was standing by the door. His face blurred against the light.

In fact, he had hidden himself so well that no one could see the nervousness that bloomed in his gaze.

He had chosen to no tell Rachel that they had had a fight because of Celine.
