Stuck in you

"I swear if you make Rachel sad, I'll make sure you'll live hell on earth."

At that point, after threatening him, Eric felt like a real man.

Jack ignored him as he looked at his phone. His face darkened even further.

Although the news had just been released two hours ago, the number of hits already exceeded a hundred million.

Now that Eric had seen it, Rachel must've already known about this.

A shot of anxiety coursed through his veins. "Where is she?"

Eric shot him a glare and left.

After what Jack had done to her, the least he could do was stay far away from Rachel as possible. There was no way Eric could tell him where she was. Then again, it wasn't as if Eric had contacted her yet.

Wiping his face of any signs of anxiety and exhaustion, Jack tried to run after him.

Celine shouted to stop him. "Jack, where are you going? Are you going to leave me alone?"

"I have something to attend to. Someone will get to you later."

Knowing that she wouldn't be able to convince him like this, Celine screamed in pain. She writhed under her bed covers as her eyes rolled up. "Jack, it hurts so much! Get a doctor here, please."

Rachel felt like she had slept for the whole day.

However, her condition wasn't getting any better. Her head pounded even heavier. As the back of her hand touched her forehead, she could feel the burning heat. It seemed that she had gotten a fever after staying up all night.

As soon as Eric came out of the hospital, he went straight to her house. However, when he reached the door, he realized that he didn't bring his keys.

It was already approaching sunset when he came back once again, this time, with the keys in his hand.

When he opened the door, he scanned the living room before shouting, "Are you home? Rachel?"

He shouted for several times like a banshee screaming for his lunch.

Rubbing her temples, Rachel walked down the stairs and looked down, irritated by all the ruckus he was causing. "Why are you shouting? Didn't you go to work today?"

Eric breathed a sigh of relief once he heard her voice.

Along the way, he tried calling her multiple times, but all his calls failed to reach her. At that time, different thoughts soared through his mind. He had thought that she was hurting herself or thinking of jumping off a building.

Although, back then, he never thought that Rachel would do those things, people always said that love made fools out of everyone—even someone as sensible as Rachel.

Eric's stiffened posture finally relaxed. However, when he noticed how flushed her face was, he immediately ran towards her.

"Why is your face so red?" he demanded. "Are you not feeling well?"
