Stuck in you

Chapter 289 An Anonymous Sender

Lucas just nodded. But sensing that Rachel didn't want to talk about it anymore, he changed the topic. "Do you want to hand over the patient to me? I'll take care of her."

He knew that Rachel feared to deal with this kind of patient.

For her, it was troublesome.

She fell into silence for a few seconds, then shook her head. It was very obvious that Celine said those words deliberately to discourage her, and if she let Lucas take her patient, she would mock her. She said, "There's no need. The patient's condition is temporarily stable now, so I think I can handle it. Don't worry."

"Okay."

He didn't want to continue with the topic, so he asked instead, "When are you free?

Dad has been urging me several times because he can't wait to show off his cooking skills."

She had already forgotten about that dinner invitation. Good thing, he reminded her now. "How about the day after tomorrow? Please tell James that I'm really busy recently."

"Don't worry about it. Just don't forget the day after tomorrow, okay? I'll go now."

Lucas stood up and opened the door without noticing a figure that quickly disappeared.

On the other hand, Jack's eyes narrowed, and his face darkened as he watched the video on his phone.

It showed Rachel and Lucas talking with each other. Although he didn't know what they were talking about, she looked happy and relaxed.

Someone had actually sent him the video with a message saying, "Mr. Fu, how do you feel seeing your wife talking and laughing with another man?

Would you agree with me that they are a good match?"

Jack sneered upon reading the message.

He pressed Austin's number and said, "Come to my office now."

When Austin arrived at his office, he immediately handed him a piece of paper with a phone number written on it.

"Mr. Fu, what is this?" he asked confusedly.

"Help me find the owner of this number."

Austin started his investigation and eventually found out the number was unregistered. Someone must have bought a prepaid number to send Jack the video.

When Jack picked up Rachel at the hospital, she noticed that he was in a bad mood.

On their way home, he just drove silently, which was very different from his usual self.

She turned her head to look at him and asked, "How was your day?"

"Nothing special," his short reply.

"You seem to be in a bad mood."

"I'm okay."

"Did something make you mad?" Jack was in his usual mood in the morning,
