Stuck in you

Celine flushed red.

What he had just said really hurt her.

At his words, she started to regret her own carelessness. She should've been more cautious in meeting up with that man. Maybe then, Jack wouldn't have suspected her.

Now that everything was falling apart, she crossed her arms over her chest defiantly. "Couldn't I make friends with people who work in the hospital?"

Instead of getting furious at her frivolous reply, Jack smiled. "You can, but I happen to be interested in him. Call him, so we can talk."

On that day, after Rachel had called him, he had sent someone to the Affiliated No.1 Hospital to investigate on the matter. But they said they had no plan of poaching her.

Jack analyzed the business card he had gotten. The paper was rough, and the handwriting had already faded because of the rain. It was obvious that the business card was another prop to Celine's lies.

"Never knew that an executive at such a big hospital would have a cheap calling card." He sneered.

Celine shrunk at the implication of his voice. She leaned against the door frame as her lips trembled under his cool gaze. Although she was scared out of her mind, she managed to keep her mouth shut.

After all, it was just a business card. He wouldn't be able to find anything.

She thought that she had already hidden everything so perfectly.

And it was true. At this moment, he couldn't find anything on her.

Hearing what he had to say on the phone, Rachel sighed. "What should we do next then? You know, if it isn't convenient for you, then it's okay not to do it,"

she said tentatively.

On the night when she talked to Lea, she had already made up her mind not to resist Jack's advances, but it didn't mean that she would tolerate Celine's existence.

As long as that woman was still in between them, there would always be trouble brewing in their relationship. Rachel couldn't stand that.

Jack chuckled. "Don't think too much. I already have a plan."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, she couldn't help but pinch the space in between her eyebrows. Ever since she came back, her life was like a TV drama. In fact, she could bet that her life was even more dramatic than any show on the television.
