Stuck in you

Rachel was alert the entire time, but she didn't answer. She opened the envelope in her hand and read it word by word, without missing a single dot.

Finally, she couldn't help swearing.

Although Marcus ran a small foreign trade company, his family's influence could never be underestimated.

His father, Larry Ji, was the current mayor of Ninwell City, while his mother, Connie Chen, was the chairman of Ninwell City Association. His family had originally planned for Marcus to inherit his parents' legacy and enter the political field in the future. However, that plan fell by the wayside when he established his own company during his university years.

On his own, he managed to gather a few laurels in the last few years.

Although his parents had no choice at the moment, they were still hoping for their original plan to materialize. Thus, they were strongly encouraging Marcus to marry a daughter of a political family.

Now, a certain Celia Xu suddenly appeared in their son's life, and she had single-handedly destroyed their plans.

Marriage connections were not only popular in business circles, but were also outright welcomed by political families such as theirs.

The letter in Rachel's hand was written by Larry Ji, who demanded for the Fu family to stay out of the affair between Marcus and Celia and refrain from doing anything for the Xu family.

After reading the letter, Rachel got the gist of the situation. She folded the letter and placed it back into the envelope as she waited for Jonathan to speak.

After a moment of silence, Jonathan coughed and cleared his throat. "Rachel, Celia is your friend. I know that it's a little heartless to tell you to stay away from her at this point, but our hands are tied. The Fu family has to bow out of this."

Since the ancient times, business families had always been considered to be inferior to political clans.

Rachel pursed her lips and said, "Dad, I know. I'll keep my distance."

Jonathan certainly knew that she gave the expected response without meaning to abide by it, but she already gave her word. He could not continue to badger her any further. The expression in his eyes changed, as did their topic. "I heard that Jack has recruited her father. Is that correct?"

Although he was asking Rachel, she knew that Jonathan had already investigated on the matter beforehand.

She was being completely forthcoming when she said, "Yes, I heard him mention it the other day."

Jonathan sighed. "Jack has always been close to that Ji boy. I'm afraid it was him who asked Jack to do such a thing."

Rachel simply looked at him and didn't say anything.
