Stuck in you

Chapter 332 A Night At The Suburb

The air was getting cold, and Rachel preferred to stay in bed during winter.

"Let's talk about it then," Bill said as he pointed to the top of the mountain. He then grabbed her arm and urged her on. "Let's get there first!"

It was already dusk when they finally got down the mountain.

And it was only five in the afternoon, but it was quickly getting dark all around them. Rachel rubbed her rumbling stomach. "Can we go back now?"

They walked to the car and got in. However, when Bill tried to start the car, it wouldn't start. He tried several times, but failed each time.

A bad feeling crept around her heart as she frowned. "Is it broken?"

"I think it is. I'll call them to send out a car for us," Bill answered with an awkward smile.

He took out his phone and was surprised that there was no signal. It appeared that they were outside of the service area of his phone.

They both wondered if they had no choice but to spend the night in the wilds. "We could check if there's a guesthouse nearby," Rachel suggested.

Jack went straight to look for Rachel as soon as he got off the plane. He rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one answered. To make matters worse, her phone was also powered off when he tried to call her.

After he had expressed his feelings for Rachel, he had had some urgent work abroad. He had asked his employees work overtime and had been able to finish the work that would originally need month to finish in just a week. He had flown back right away after he had finished the work.

He wanted to explain to Rachel in person, but he never expected that he wouldn't be able to find her once he got back.

It all felt so strange to him.

He was about to go to the hospital where she worked. He walked towards the elevator and waited. When the elevator doors finally opened, a fat woman got off while pushing a child's stroller. "Hey, do you live at the opposite apartment? You can't get inside?"

Apparently, Jack and Rachel's quarrel last time made their neighbor think that he lived there.

"I saw Rachel go out this morning and I asked her where she was going. She said that she was going mountain climbing. She probably hadn't come back yet," she narrated with a smile.

"Do you happen to know which mountain she could have gone?" Jack asked with a frown.

The woman paused and thought for a while. "I think it's in the eastern suburbs. I don't really know all of the details," she replied.

Jack expressed his thanks and went off for the eastern suburbs. He tried to call Rachel over and over along the way, but her phone was still powered off and he couldn't reach her at all.

The moon rose steadily from one side of the mountain. The wind whistled as it blew through the surrounding forest. The evening in the mountain was cold and gloomy.
