Stuck in you

"Oh? That's so unlike her. Did Rachel ask for a leave of absence for something?" asked the director.

Mindy shook her head. "I don't know. She didn't tell me."

Meanwhile, Rachel was driving to the hospital where Jack was. She sneezed twice in a row while talking to Jack over the phone. "Where are you?" he asked

"I'm almost there."

Rachel finally realized Jack's propensity for clinginess. He stayed in the hospital for two days on account of his fever. She couldn't believe how she had to file for a leave of absence to fetch a fully grown man from the hospital and bring him home.

She shook her head. 'He really is shameless.'

When she arrived at the ward, Jack had already prepared everything and was waiting for her.

Rachel took a deep breath and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Go home first. I need to go to the company then."

Hearing this answer, Rachel remembered passing by a man at the door. She frowned and asked, "Why didn't you ask Austin drive you home, then?"

Jack smiled and replied, "I don't want him."

"Why not?"

"I only pay Austin only one salary, which is for functioning as my secretary. I don't pay him to act as my personal assistant and to take care of me. It would be unfair to make him do something that's outside of his job description."

Rachel couldn't help but roll her eyes.

She stretched out her hand toward Jack, palm upturned. "What about my salary?"

"Don't worry, I will give it to you." Jack patted Rachel on the palm, and suddenly something was on it. When she saw car keys, she asked, "So this is all I get?"

At this time, a nurse appeared at the door of the hospital room with a patient's guardian. She pointed inside and said, "The patient can stay in this room. Please head to the nurse station later to go through admission procedures."

After she finished speaking, she started in surprise at the sight of two people still in the room. "Mr. Fu, you haven't packed up yet?"

"We're about to leave," Jack replied with a nod toward the nurse.

Rachel slid behind the wheel and punched in the address into the GPS. Just as she was about to start the car, Jack changed the address on the navigation system.

She thought for a few seconds and asked, "You don't live in the villa you used to live in anymore?"

Jack adjusted the back of the chair and leaned back. "I sold it."

The property had already been listed for sale a long time ago. As for the reason, he looked at the puzzled expression in her eyes and smiled faintly. "This house is better than that villa. You will definitely like it."
