Stuck in you

"No, it's fine."

Jack took out his handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the spilled contents carefully. "I'll change later."

Glancing at the empty coffee cup, then at the closed elevator, Austin couldn't help but sigh in relief. It seemed that he was lucky that his boss was in such a good mood.

If he wasn't, then he couldn't bring himself to imagine the results.

Jack opened the door and put down the key on the table. "Rachel?" he called out, only to hear silence.

"Did she go out again?"

Without thinking too much, he looked at the glaring stain on his shirt. He took off his suit and decided to take a shower first. Maybe she would come back soon.

At that moment, Rachel was sitting in the back seat and staring out the window indifferently. Nobody could tell what she was willing at this moment.

Lucas' voice sounded abruptly in the car. "Have you already made up your mind?"

She nodded.

"You know how I've been looking forward to the training."

Knowing how destroyed her relationship was with Jack, she knew that going abroad was her best option.

She'd be much better off in busying herself there than suffering here with him.

Her surroundings became more and more remote. Soon enough, she could already hear airplanes taking off as their engines echoed across the fields.

The airport was already nearby.

"Are you really not going to tell Jack?" he asked worriedly.

"It won't be necessary."

She shook her head.

If she had told him, then things would've been much more difficult. It would be better to leave it like this.

Jack suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and wrapped himself with a bath towel. A feeling of uneasiness swept over him as he stepped out of the shower.

At first, he didn't take it seriously, but every second made him even more nervous.

He walked out of the bathroom and paused. A frown slid into his lips as he stepped back and glanced at the sink.

From where he had left it, there should've been two electric toothbrushes, women's facial cleanser, and a face wash. Now, his toothbrush was the only thing left.

'Where's her stuff?

Did a thief come in?'

Jack waved his thoughts away. He walked into his bedroom to see that the dresser was also empty.

His clothes were the only ones left.

Immediately, he put on his clothes and ran into every room.
