Stuck in you

Chapter 376 Beaten Up

There was a trace of panic in Austin's voice. "I was about to warn Dylan. I didn't expect that a group of people would beat him up. He's currently in the emergency room, and he's still not out of the woods."

Jack looked back at the three people surrounding him and said in a low voice, "Okay, I know."

Marcus glanced at his watch. "Okay, it's almost time for us to board. Jack, thank you for taking care of these domestic affairs."

Celia hugged Rachel and bit her lower lip. "Rachel, I have to go. I don't know when I will come back. I know my father is an asshole, but he's still my father, so... can you let him continue working in the company?"

Rachel nodded, "We know."

"What about Jack?"

Meeting the expectant look in her eyes, Jack frowned slightly. After a moment of hesitation, he said slowly, "Celia, there's something you need to know."

The serious expression on his face made the other three feel strange.

Jack said, "I received a call just now. Your father, Dylan, was beaten up and brought to the hospital. He still isn't out of danger.

I thought that you should know about it, but don't worry. We will take good care of your father."

Rachel subconsciously glanced at the other couple, Celia and Marcus.

Tears streamed down Celia's face. She covered her mouth and muttered in a trembling voice, "How could this happen?"

"The details of the situation are still unclear at this point."

The final boarding call for their flight was announced in the airport's public address system. Celia was torn. She was supposed to elope with Marcus, but her father was still in danger.

Lowering her head, Celia fell silent, at a loss as to what her next course of action would be.

Marcus looked at Jack and asked, "Can your car accommodate all of us?"

Jack was taken a back for a moment, then he nodded his head.

Marcus held Celia's hand and led her toward one of the airport's exit gates. "We can go to France at any time. Now, we have to go the hospital to see your father."

As they followed the two out of the airport, Rachel linked her arm with Jack's and whispered, "Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence? It happened just as they were about to leave. What do you think?"

While she was talking, Jack slid his arm about her shoulders and urged her to walk at a quicker pace. He responded in a low voice, "Don't think too much. Let's go to the hospital first."

However, there was no denying the sheer number of events that transpired during that time.

His first reaction matched Rachel's when he heard the news.
