Stuck in you

Henry chuckled and said, "It seems like you will have to spend more time with Eric now."

"No need. People are gossiping about Michael and me, thinking we are a couple," Marcus said.

Michael had actually fled abroad to avoid the blind date arranged by his father for him. Right now, he sneezed several times while in bed. He felt a sudden chill on his back, so he quickly pulled the quilt and wrapped his body.

Lea leaned on Henry's shoulder. With a smug smile on her face, she said, "Since we all played as matchmakers for the two of you, you should prepare generous red envelopes for all of us."

"That won't be a problem," replied Marcus.

Celia raised her head and said in a low voice, "Lea, you are very wealthy. Why do you still care about the red envelopes?"

"Wow! You haven't married Marcus yet, but you are already helping him save his money," Lea teased Celia.

The ward filled with joyful laughter and happiness for a while.

When the two couples bade goodbye, there were only Jack and Rachel left in the ward. She took the apple that he peeled, took a bite, and sighed. "Celia finally got her happiness."

Jack nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed. He then bent over to take a bite of the apple in her hand.

She pushed him on the shoulder and said, "If you want to eat, peel one for yourself."

"I don't want to." He winked and smiled.

"Let me do it for you." She was about to take the fruit knife,

but he held back her hand. He poked his forehead and said, "Why are you so ignorant when it comes to romance?"

Seeing the smile in his eyes, she soon realized what he meant. But then, she quickly changed the topic. She asked in confusion, "By the way, I've always been curious. Marcus was about to elope with Celia that day, but why did he suddenly change his mind and decide to marry Eden after going back home?"

"Do you really want to know?" Jack asked, raising an eyebrow. When she nodded, he pointed at his cheek and smiled. "Kiss me first, and I'll tell you right away."

Rachel pursed her lips and kissed him on the cheek helplessly. "Can you tell me now?"

He sat back and held her in his arms. Resting his chin on her head, he sighed deeply and started, "When Dylan was still working in a TV station, he used his power to embezzle a large amount of money. Their leader found out about it, but gave him a chance to make amends. However, he had already squandered the money."
