Trapped In Lace

After Rachel dealt with Gigi, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated, indicating that there was a call.

Taking a look, Rachel brought the phone to her ear. "Hi, Dad."

"Rachel, are you going to get off work now? Tomorrow is the weekend. How about joining us for dinner?"

Although Jonathan had said he wouldn't interfere in Jack and Rachel's relationship anymore,

he still couldn't help but keep an eye on them.

Originally, he planned to go to Rachel's place and stay there for the night, but Tracy rejected the idea. "Can't you just let them come over?" she snapped impatiently.

That was why he made the call.

Rachel thought for a while before nodding. "I'll come by with Jack once I get off work."

When her husband arrived to pick her up, she quickly told him to go to the Fu family residence.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Rachel gazed out of the window.

When she came out of the hospital, she passed by the ward where Gigi was in. Naturally, she couldn't help but overhear the couple arguing over their baby.

They were on two opposing sides, and their voices were getting louder and louder that anyone in the vicinity could hear what they were arguing about.

At that point, it was hard to tell who was right or wrong.

Inside the car, the beeping sound continued.

Jack cleared his throat and reminded her, "Fasten your seat belt."

"Oh, I forgot." Rachel finally snapped back into her sens

ed curiously.

"Just a scam." Jack shrugged.

The weekend ahead of them was extremely special since none of them had to go out. They simply stayed at home and enjoyed each other's presence.

Rachel was reading her medical book while Jack was scanning through the company's documents.

Although silence wrapped around them, they could still feel the chemistry that connected them together.

Once it was approaching dinner time, Jack's phone rang once again. It was from Celine. After hesitating for a while, Jack walked outside and answered the call.

"You finally picked up," Celine exclaimed.

She had called him yesterday, and he had refused to answer.

"What's the matter?"

"Oh, don't give me that.

I just called you to ask when we'll have that dinner you owe me. Don't tell me you back out already."

If she hadn't mentioned it, then Jack would've already forgotten about it.

After a moment of silence, he said, "What do you want to eat? You can go eat there on your own. Tell Austin how much the meal costs you, and I'll ask him to transfer the money to you."

She didn't expect that he would resort to this.

Did he think she couldn't afford a meal?

What she wanted to see was him!

Celine tried to say something more, but Jack already hung up the phone. Gritting her teeth, she almost threw her phone against the wall out of anger.

After thinking for a while, she decided to restrain herself.
