Stuck in you

Chapter 293 A Bouquet Of Flowers

Rachel didn't need to tell her plan to others in advance when she lived alone. So she forgot to tell Jack about the dinner in the Zhou family residence.

Jack's face darkened. "I was overreacting."

"You were."

She didn't even bother to deny the fact.

As she thought about it, maybe this was the opportunity to make everything clear between them. If she left it like this, the problems they had would simply grow bigger and bigger.

Thinking of this, Rachel pursed her lips and stared up at him once more. "Do you have anything to tell me?"

When she recalled what Celine had said so arrogantly in the morning, her heart throbbed against her chest.

Anger, sadness, disgust—all these emotions overwhelmed her like a net surrounding a fish. It was as if she couldn't find it in herself to move because she was afraid that she'd simply get even more tangled in her own prison of thoughts.

Back then, Celine had been staring at her with a smug look.

"Well, I was never fond of children in the first place. I'm not pregnant. I just have a stomachache. Sorry to rain on your parade."

Rachel sneered and left.

However, every step she took felt like she was hauling across bags of lead. It was painful, and it was something that she wouldn't subject anyone to.

She wanted to see if Jack would confess to her.

Rachel didn't care if what Celine had said was true or not. This had happened before the two of them were together. Back then, Jack loved Celine wholeheartedly, so it was natural for him to do such a thing.

However, now that he was with Rachel, she expected honesty. It was as if he took her as a stupid shrew.

When she recalled all the times he had whispered in her ear about having a baby, she could feel the knife twisting deeper into her heart.

As if nothing had happened, Jack smiled and held her in his arms. He rested his chin on top of her head. "I won't be so narrow-minded in the future. Trust me."

'Trust him?'

Rachel shook and avoided his gaze.

He noticed the change. Frowning, he asked, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"Nothing. I had some fried rice cake for lunch. I probably ate too much."

She waved her hands dismissively. "I felt a little nauseated in the afternoon. In fact, all the nurses in the hospital thought I was pregnant."

Jack chuckled. These two days, they were both feeling agitated because of the suspicion they had for one another. Now that she was willing to tell him about these mundane events, he felt that everything was finally falling into place.

As always, their relationship jumped up just when they thought everything was lost.

Holding her face in his hands, he kissed her on the lips several times. "Even the nurses are worried about you," he whispered. "Maybe it's time for us to give then what they've been speculating."
