Stuck in you

Chapter 358 Find Andy

Jack wanted to beg off from Henry's invitation but ended up saying yes. As a concession, he asked for dinner to be at Henry's home instead of at a restaurant.

At that moment, Lea was handing pieces of a jigsaw puzzle to Rita. When she heard, she raised her head to look at Henry, who was sitting on the sofa, and asked in confusion, "Weren't you planning to have dinner at a restaurant or a club? Why are you having dinner here? You know that I can't let you drink at home."

Henry put down the remote control, raised an eyebrow teasingly, and answered with a smile, "I haven't touched a drop of alcohol since the last time. Why can't you recognize that I have changed?"

"Changed?"

Lea couldn't stop laughter from escaping her lips. Rita raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and looked at her mother curiously, probably wondering what was wrong with her.

She rubbed Rita's head and said, "Looks like you now have a deep understanding of how undesirable your past behavior was."

"Thanks to my wife's guidance," Henry promptly replied with a serious nod.

"So you do have a conscience, after all," she countered teasingly.

The doorbell rang while they were exchanging humorous banter. When Henry opened the door and saw Jack standing outside, he looked behind him and asked with a frown, "Where is Rachel? Didn't she come with you?"

Since the dinner venue had changed, Henry also invited Rachel over the phone.

It was strange of her not to make an appearance.

Lea added, "Is she on night duty today?"

Jack's eyes darkened. Before he came to the hospital, the director told him that Rachel had asked for a two-day leave.

Based on her words, Jack could tell that Lea seemed to be unaware of what was going on with Rachel in the last two days.

"In that case, let's have dinner now." Henry placed his hand on Jack's shoulder. "Thank you for helping me with the project last time.

If not for you, I never would have gotten it even if drank myself under the table."

He was talking a lot, but Jack didn't respond. He stared at Lea, who was cleaning up the toys for Rita.
