Stuck in you

The beaten-up young man was stunned and frightened. He knelt on the floor and kept kowtowing with tears and snot all over his face. "I only really wanted her bag at that time. I've seen it on the Internet before, and it's worth a lot of money. I really didn't want to rape her. Can you just sue me for theft?"

"Is that possible?" Jack's dark eyes gave out a cold light. He raised his hand and patted the shoulder of one of the policemen two times. "I'll leave the rest to you. Thank you for your hard work."

After that, he took Rachel's hand and walked away. In the past few nights, he unconsciously woke up from the same nightmare at an ungodly hour, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

Fortunately, the thing that he feared did not happen. If it had, then he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

When she came back from Brookmount City, Rachel found something. Every night when she slept, Jack would always hold her tightly. She protested multiple times, "Jack, too tight—I can't breathe."

He always tried to bring her closer to him and ignore her complaints, saying, "This is for your own sake, so you can feel a sense of safety."

After resting at home for two days, Rachel went back to the hospital to report again. She was called into the director's office to update him on the status of the exchange meeting. Luckily, Jack had anticipated it so he asked another doctor to attend the meeting in her stead and brought back a pile of documents.

When asked about the meeting, Rachel put the pile of documents in front of the director. Seeing his satisfied nod, she realized how much she had misunderstood Jack.

She still remembered telling Jack that such an arrangement was unnecessary, but the current situation showed that he was right.

However, she would never tell Jack how right he was about it because he might get complacent and rub it into her face. Even so, she sent Jack a message asking, "What do you feel like eating tonight? I'll cook it for you."

Not long after, he replied, "No, I'll cook."

When Rachel came home from the hospital, an appetizing smell was the first thing that greeted her as soon as she opened the door. She saw Jack puttering about in the kitchen. Several dishes were already laid out on the table, with a selection of meats and vegetables for a balanced meal.

She pushed the sliding door open, swiped a small piece of eggplant from one of the dishes, and asked vaguely, "Is anyone coming over to visit tonight?"

"No," Jack replied in a low voice.

"Just the two of us, then?" Jack was preparing too much food for only two people. There are five dishes on the table, and he didn't seem to be done cooking.

Jack skillfully scooped up the juices from the pan and turned off the heat. He then took out the fragrant sweet and sour spareribs and handed the dish to her, saying, "Put these ribs on the table. Grab that bowl of soup and wait outside. I'll be done soon."
