Stuck in you

Chapter 472 Aunt Linda Passed Away

"About what?" He finally raised his head, but his voice was so calm that there was no fluctuation.

Rachel lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly, "What do you think?"

As soon as she finished her words, Jack looked away and lowered his head again. He reached out his chopsticks to move the vegetables on the plate, but did not make any response to her.

Rachel felt like her chest was stuffed with a big mass of cotton, unable to breathe. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Where have you been these two days?"

It turned out that asking this question was not as difficult as she thought. Rachel just felt that the question that had been weighing on her mind for several days was finally asked, and now she was relieved.

Jack closed his eyes for a while. When he opened them again, his clear eyes gradually became a little turbid, mixed with too many emotions. He reached out his hand, tightly held the hand of Rachel on the table, and said in a deep voice, "Your aunt passed away."

'Passed away?'

Looking straight at Jack for a while, Rachel suddenly grinned and laughed louder, "Jack, are you kidding me? I just had a video chat with Eric when the two of them laughed happily. How could she pass away all of a sudden?"

She raised her head, withdrew her hand and pressed it on her forehead. She kept denying, "No, my aunt is very healthy. How could she die suddenly?"

"Rachel, calm down." Jack looked at her worriedly and licked his lips. "That night, your aunt and Eric drank too much at home. She fell down the stairs by accident and hit her head against the railing. She died on the spot."

"No, it's impossible." With a loud bang in her mind, Rachel's limbs slowly stiffened at a speed visible to the naked eye. She kept shaking her head and said, "She just hit the railing? How could she not be rescued? Jack, you must be kidding me, right?"

She stretched out her hands and kept touching Jack's suit jacket. She muttered, "Jack, where is your phone? Show me your phone. Today is April fool's day, and you are lying to me, aren't you?"

Seeing that Jack just looked straight at her without saying anything, Rachel finally couldn't control her emotions. She grabbed Jack's arm tightly and roared, "Jack, say something. Why don't you say anything? Tell me, you are lying to me!"

Her gloomy eyes were instantly wet, and tears welled up like the water that had been stored for a long time.

Rachel sniffed and tried her best to hold back her tears. But her pretending to be fine made Jack feel more distressed.
