Trapped In Lace

Jack frowned as soon as he saw Scarlett in the ward. "Didn't I tell you not to come here again?"

"I'm here to take care of you." Scarlett didn't take Jack's indifference to heart anymore because Tracy was always there to support her.

So instead of feeling hurt, she sat down and asked him with a smile, "How are you feeling today?"

But Jack just ignored her. He closed his eyes and asked coldly, "Where is my phone?"

"I don't know." Scarlett tried her best not to laugh and said innocently, "I haven't seen your phone since you were sent to the hospital."

The truth was, she took his phone and gave it to Tracy.

On Jack's first night in the hospital, she was there to take care of him. When she was about to bend over to the bedside to have a rest, she heard a phone ringing, but it wasn't her phone.

She followed the sound to find the phone. Finally, she found it in the pocket of Jack's bloodstained trousers.

As soon as Scarlett saw Rachel's name on the screen, she was so angry that she clenched her teeth. At first, she wanted to throw the phone away, but she controlled herself and managed to hide it.

An idea flashed through her mind.

The next day when Tracy came to the hospital, Scarlett waited for Jack to fall asleep before she took his phone out and handed it to Tracy. She whispered, "Auntie, someone called Jack yesterday. Since this is his private phone, I didn't answer it."

"Who called him?"

"Rachel."

When she mentioned Rachel's name, she clearly noticed that Tracy's expression changed. By this time, she knew all along that her plan was a success.

Tracy took the phone and

that she didn't miss any details. Fortunately, her busy day made her forget anything related to Jack for a moment.

This evening, she was able to sleep much better than before.

Julie was also relieved to see that Rachel looked much better now.

When Rachel arrived in her office today, Jimmy Yang was sitting in front of her desk. Seeing his bloodshot eyes, her heart skipped a beat.

She immediately asked, "Mr. Yang, what can I do for you?"

Jimmy Yang stood up and said in a gloomy voice, "I want to let you know that my wife had already passed away last night, so I want to withdraw the application."

Rachel's eyebrows were drawn together tightly. She couldn't hide the sadness on her face.

She suddenly remembered Jodie Zhang's smile while praising her son's painting yesterday. Although she was lying in bed, her eyes showed that she was happy that her son was there.

Being a doctor for a long time, Rachel had met a lot of cancer patients who also didn't survive. But still, she couldn't help feeling sad upon receiving the bad news.

She took a deep breath and said sympathetically, "I'm sorry to hear that. Thank you for letting me know personally. Don't worry. The hospital will handle everything about your application withdrawal."

Jimmy Yang said, "I'm sorry that you have wasted time on us these past few days."

"It's nothing." Rachel put down her bag on the desk. She noticed that Jimmy Yang was still standing there motionlessly. Seeing the hesitant look on his face, she felt like he had something more to say. She proactively asked, "Mr. Yang, is there anything else I can do for you?"
