Stuck in you

"All my husband knows is to give me trouble," Mindy joked. "Romance is dead to him."

'Is this from Jack?'

Hearing what she had said, Rachel lowered her head in embarrassment.

Fortunately, Mindy was a perceptive person. Seeing that Rachel wasn't ready to talk, she patted her arm. "I'll go to work now, Rachel."

She glanced at the bouquet of flowers once she arrived in her office. After searching the flower's meaning on the Internet and glancing at the card that was attached to the flowers, she snorted and dumped them into the trash can.

Apology? Forgiveness?

There was no need for that.

Jack walked back and forth in the office. Sometimes, he would sit down and tap the table incessantly as he glanced at the clock from time to time. After waiting for two hours, a part of him wanted to see if his phone was broken.

'Didn't she receive the flowers?'

He took a deep breath and called her, only to reach a dead end.

At this point, he knew for a fact that she must've blocked him.

"Mr. Fu, what would you like for lunch? I'll get some take-out."

It turned out time had already passed.

Grabbing his car keys, Jack walked out of his office. "There's no need. I'll be going out."

He drove to a five-star hotel and entered its restaurant. Without missing a beat, he quickly ordered five dishes from the menu and said, "Pack them all up for me. Make sure that they aren't too oily or salty."

The waitress nodded and hurriedly packed the dishes for him. In half an hour, the dishes were already cooked and ready for delivery. He took the plastic bag and drove to the hospital, stopping by the gate.

'If I deliver it to her, then she might not even eat it.'

However, this was the only way he could think of right now. A part of him desperately hoped that she could forgive him after what he had done.

After thinking for a long time, he got out of the car with his wallet. Handing a bill to one of the security guards slouching by the door, he said, "Do you mind doing me a favor?"

It became a habit for Rachel to numb her nerves by digging into work. For her, it was one of the most effective ways to prevent herself from worrying over nothing.

It worked so well that she didn't even realize it was lunch time.

It wasn't until she heard a knock on a door that she finally stopped typing. "Come in."

The guard smiled awkwardly and placed a bag of food on top of her desk. "Rachel, a man asked me to bring this to you."

She already knew who the man was.

He sent her flowers in the morning and lunch in the afternoon. Did he take her as someone like Celine?
