Stuck in you

Jonathan sighed and stood up with the help of his walking stick. Letting out another sigh, this time louder, he said, "What is it you want to tell me? Let it out!"

There was a pause after which Jack replied, "She has lost her memory."

"What? Are you serious?" There was glimmer of hope in Jonathan's eyes. He had planned to reveal everything. In fact, he was prepared to watch Rachel leave. But now, this incredible news given by Jack had changed everything.

He couldn't believe it.

The smile at the corners of his mouth gradually subdued. He frowned and thought for a moment before asking slowly, "Are you sure? Is it confirmed?"

Life had a tendency of taking people through unexpected twists.

Jonathan wanted Jack to be cautious.

Hearing the disbelief in his voice, Jack took out a document and placed it on the desk. "This is the investigation material. You can have a look."

"Well, I will look at it. However, it's quite late now. Rachel must be waiting for you," Jonathan replied.

Tracy, who had fallen asleep, woke up. She stretched her hand to the side like she normally did but was stunned at finding it empty.

She sat up in a hurry and glanced at the clock on the side. It was three o'clock in the morning, but Jonathan hadn't come to sleep yet. Sometimes he behaved like a kid! She was furious. "What time is it? How old do you think you are? It is high time you stopped acting like a twenty-year-old young man!"

she said angrily as she entered the study. Her fury was such that she hadn't even bothered to check who was sitting in the study at this moment.

It was not until she had uttered these spiteful words she noticed Jack's presence. He was sitting on the sofa, looking at her with a smile.

She raised her hand and smoothed her hair awkwardly. "Why are you here during this hour?"

"I had some urgent business with Dad. I am done though. You can take him back to sleep."

Jack left the Fu family with a smile plastered on his face. It was raining and quite windy but he was unperturbed by the weather. Once he was home, he looked at Rachel who was sleeping peacefully. Slowly, he whispered, "Rachel, I hope you won't blame me for any of it in the future."

Rachel had no idea he had been out. In this sleepy state, she smiled and wrapped her hands around his neck. When she woke up later, she looked at the man lying beside her and smiled happily.

After freshening up, changing clothes and dealing with everything, Jack came out of his bedroom. Rachel was busy in the kitchen and he hugged her from behind.

Rachel shrugged her shoulders and said, "Your beard hurts. Go shave and come."

"Later." His voice was deep and husky, containing a trace of laziness and sexiness.

With a sigh, Rachel let him do as he pleased. Once everything was ready, she patted on his face and her expression changed. His temperature was quite high. "Do you have a fever?"
