Stuck in you

Instead of answering Jack's question, Rachel asked back, "How about you?"

She put down the magazine and gave him a bright smile.

He poked her forehead with his finger gently and replied, "Well, you know that I'm always obedient to your orders."

Jonathan had already settled almost everything about their wedding. And since Linda met them now, things were all finalized. It turned out, their wedding would be held two days later.

The day before the wedding, Rachel sat in front of her dresser and looked at her beautiful bright eyes in the mirror. She recalled all the things that happened in the past and couldn't help feeling as if she was still in a dream.

She was so absorbed in her thought that she didn't notice when Jack pushed the door open. She only felt his presence in the room when his hand gently touched her shoulder. Patting his hand, she said, "Didn't Mom tell you not to come here tonight?"

"I'm here to check if my bride is now ready for tomorrow's wedding." The smile in Jack's eyes became more and more apparent.

Rachel turned back and smiled at him. "Of course, I'm ready. Besides, this is not the first time I'm marrying you. I don't see any reason to be nervous."

"This one is different."

With a seductive smile on his thin lips, he pulled her aside and opened the drawer. There, he took out a necklace with two rings as pendants.

She recognized the two rings at a glance, so she asked in surprise, "Why are they here?"

Those were their wedding rings before. She thought that he threw them away when she left last time. She didn't expect that he had kept them.

Jack took her hand and put the necklace in her palm. He then said in a gentle tone, "I am giving this necklace to you now. Every time you get angry at me in the future, just take this necklace out, and I will immediately apologize to you."

While saying these, he raised his hand and swore like a child.

The rings were not only the symbols of their first marriage but also his reminder of how difficult his life was when Rachel left him.

With a sly look in her eyes, Rachel nodded. "Okay. Do you have anything else to say? If none, you must go and rest. It's late now. I'm afraid that Mom will call and look for you."

He was still smiling when he unconsciously exerted a little strength holding her hand. She felt the sudden pain, so she screamed in surprise, "What's wrong?"

There was a trace of hesitation on his face as if he wanted to say something. Eventually, he just stroked her hair and said in a low voice, "Nothing. Go to bed early."
