Stuck in you

Celia sat there stunned for a few seconds, and then continued, "It's okay to wait for one or two years, but what if I have to wait indefinitely? What if he fails to convince his parents? Then all that waiting would be for nothing in the end, right?"

As soon as Celia finished speaking, Rachel heard her stomach growl, so she handed her another piece of bread. "You already know the answer in your heart, don't you? You think that you can wait for one or two years, so just wait. As for the rest, talk it out after a year or two."

Celia continued to whine, "But what if I wait for him, but then he won't want me anymore after two years? Rachel, I've been cheated on once, and I can't let that happen again. I'm really scared."

Rachel was hunched over while turning on the computer, but upon hearing this, she paused the task and straightened up, looking at Celia. She remembered what happened to the other woman when she came to the hospital for registration, and her heart sank. After a while, she said encouragingly, "Then make yourself a stronger and better woman while waiting for him. As women, we have to rely on ourselves, right? When you are the best version of yourself, men will come to you automatically."

Celia clenched her fists and raised her hands in reaction to Rachel's words, shouting vigorously, "Okay, Rachel, I will try my best!" Once she had finished speaking, a large yawn escaped her, and her shoulders slightly drooped. She waved her hand and said, "I'm too sleepy. I'm going to home to get some sleep."

There were always a lot of guests in the MK Group. Some visitors came to discuss business, while others came to visit Jack. Most of these visitors were turned away at the president's office door.

As the end of the work day approached, everyone became anxious, including Jack, who was as antsy as a teenager. He was packing up and getting ready to leave when the door opened and Marcus strode in.

He walked slowly to the sofa and sat down with his legs crossed. "I figured that you would stay until late night at the office, so I specially chose this time to visit you. I didn't expect that I would make a mistake."

"Come early next time," Jack replied impatiently,

but he prepared a cup of white tea and set it out in front of the latecomer.

The air was filled with the unique fragrance of white tea. Marcus took a sip and said in a joking voice, "In the past, there was nothing but coffee in your office."

Jack smiled, "Rachel brought it. She said that I should drink less coffee because of my stomach issues."

Marcus said nothing, and his only response was a bitter smile.

Loss flashed across his eyes and disappeared, but Jack caught it. He leaned back slightly and asked in a low tone, "You haven't shown up for quite some time. What's wrong?"

"Something's wrong, Jack." Marcus stared blankly at a certain point on the wall. After a moment, he turned to look at Jack. "I came here today to ask for your help."

Jack frowned. "What's the matter?

There is no need for politeness between us." They tended to tell each other everything frankly, most of the time. Never before had Marcus asked for his help in such a polite manner. Jack found it unnerving.

Marcus said, "Can you help arrange for a person to work in your company? It has to be a high position."
