Stuck in you

Chapter 366 Being A Listener

Rachel just came out of the restaurant with Jack when she received a message from Celia.

It was such a beautiful night, with the moon flickering under the dark clouds, so she said to Jack on a whim, "How about we take a walk for a while?"

Pleased with her suggestion, Jack smiled and answered, "Why not?"

While they were walking, she sensed that he was in a good mood, so she didn't hesitate to say her real intention. "Can you help me with Celia's problem?"

The reason why she told Jack about Celia's problem was that she wanted him to help her get rid of the latter's father.

She wanted Celia's father to leave Ninwell City, so she didn't need to get along with him and her stepmother anymore.

Thinking that he would surely help her, she was confident when she told him what she wanted to happen. But to her surprise, he shook his head and said lightly, "It's not easy to interfere in other people's family matter."

"But her father has gone too far," she retorted.

She thought of acting like a spoiled child to induce him, but after giving it a careful thought, she dismissed the idea in her mind.

Instead, she pulled a long face and asked, "Are you going to help me or not?"

Jack smiled, and Rachel took it as a good sign. Her eyes lit up in excitement upon thinking that he had already agreed.

He looked at her affectionately and saw the expectations in her eyes.

Patting her head gently, he said, "I have never seen you so warmhearted before. Why do you want to help her all of a sudden?"

Instead of answering his question, Rachel pinched a small skin on his waist.

"Ouch!" he cried upon feeling the sudden pain. "That hurts."

"Are you saying that I am a cold-blooded person?" she asked, giving him a sharp glare.

Jack couldn't stand her threatening eyes, so he patted her forehead softly and cleared his throat. "Okay, okay, I admit defeat. I'll ask someone to investigate her father's current situation. Then we'll talk about it later."

"Alright." Because of too much excitement, Rachel faced him and held his arm. While her bright eyes stared at him, she tiptoed and gave her a soft kiss on the cheek.

She was like a little girl who had finally gotten a lollipop.

Seeing her expression amused Jack. He looked at her and was about to give her a deeper kiss in return when his phone suddenly rang.
