Stuck in you

Larry shook hands with Jack before casting a defensive look at Rachel. He asked, "And she is?"

"My name is Rachel Shen. Nice to meet you, Uncle Larry," Rachel introduced herself with a smile.

Jack then wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said proudly, "My fiancee."

"Oh, I see." There was still a hint of query and alienation in Larry's eyes, but his lips curved into a smile.

He picked up the teapot, poured tea to the three teacups in front of him, and gave Jack and Rachel each. Without raising his eyes, he said, "Jack, you should already know what I want to say to you today."

"I know," Jack replied.

He then held Rachel's hand and added, "Rachel is my fiancee, so I don't hide anything from her. Even if I don't bring her here, I'll still tell her everything after I get home. That's why I decided to take her with me."

There was a moment of silence before Larry picked up his teacup to take a sip. Then he said seriously, "Since you say so, I don't have any objection."

He continued, "Marcus is still ignorant. Right now, he is young and impulsive. Jack, with your current status and experiences in life, I believe that you know what is best for him."

Jack turned to look at Rachel, who was leisurely drinking her tea, and said, "I know. I also know how difficult it is to find true love."

Larry chuckled and said with a frown, "It seems that you are also as naive as Marcus."

He realized that it was no use persuading Jack. Tapping the table with his fingers, he looked up at him and added, "I heard that MK Group has been trying to buy that commercial land near the West Lake.

We will sell the land at auction next week."

He looked at Jack and changed the topic back to Marcus. "I actually asked you out today because I want to tell you not to interfere with Marcus' affairs. Also, I want to know why Dylan Xu was able to enter your company although we both know that he lacks the capability to work there."

"Well, he may be incompetent, but that doesn't mean that he is not qualified," Jack said.

Larry concluded, "The way you say it, it seems that you are not willing to help."

Jack smiled and answered, "I'm sorry, but I think my relationship with Marcus is much closer than my relationship with you."
