Stuck in you

In Rachel's opinion, Marcus must have been tired of his family affairs. Being born and raised in a well-off family, he might have been bored with money and other material things, so the simple and unsophisticated Celia attracted his attention. Perhaps she was like a breath of fresh air to him.

But the way Celia behaved in front of Rachel was unforgivable.

Rachel couldn't figure out why Celia had thought that she had a hand in the rumors that spread about her. After all, they were friends. 'She is supposed to trust me,' she thought annoyingly.

The flow of traffic gradually became slow. Rachel was carefully following the car in front of her, but her mind was wandering, keeping her focus away from the road. As a result, she failed to notice that the car in front of her had already stopped. She only realized that she made a mistake after hearing the loud bumping sound.

"Oh, my God! What have I done?" she muttered under her breath. She peered through the window and noticed the big dent at the back of the other car.

The owner of the car got out. His face turned red in an instant after seeing how much damage his car had gotten. Brimming with rage, he rolled up his sleeves, knocked on Rachel's window, and roared, "Get out!"

As soon as Rachel got out, the man pointed to his car and roared again, "Is this your first time to drive? Who the hell issued a driver's license to someone like you?"

It was indeed her fault, and she was more than willing to own up. But she was stunned watching the man cursing in front of her, not showing even an ounce of decency. She couldn't take it any longer, so she said with a frown, "I'm sorry, sir. But don't worry, I'll make sure to pay for all the damages to your car. I'll come with you to the repair shop, so we can check how much it will cost."

Upon hearing that she was willing to pay, the man's face softened a little and he said, "You don't have to waste your time, miss. Just give me the money, and I will go to the repair shop to have it fixed."

It sounded like a fair deal to her, so without wasting any more time, she asked, "How much do you need?"

The wicked man unhesitatingly demanded an exorbitant price. Raising his two fingers, he motioned and answered, "Twenty thousand dollars will do."

Rachel stared at him, hoping to see any sign that he was only kidding. But he looked earnest with his words, so she gave him a disgusted look and called the traffic police and her insurance company. She then said to the man, "At first, I thought that it was my fault, and I wanted to sort it out quickly. But now I realized it would be much better if we go through the normal process. Let's wait for the police to arrive."

The man glared at her and was about to curse her again when her phone suddenly rang. He had no choice but to watch her get back into her car to answer the call.

It was Jack, who asked in a tired voice, "Are you home?"
