Stuck in you novel Chapter 454

Before leaving, Scarlett cried with tears and snot. She held his hand and begged him not to send her on the plane. She asked him to plead with Jack and looked very pitiful.

However, when he thought of what she had done, Austin was a little indifferent. He thought, 'How could it be possible for someone to have a beautiful appearance, but her heart was so terrible? No wonder that Jack would do such a cruel thing to her.'

Austin came to his senses and said seriously, "Boss, I just heard that Scarlett's cousin is looking for her everywhere, and she also threatens..."

At this time, Tracy's voice came from the other end of the table, "Son, what phone is so important that you have to answer it now? Finish your words and come back for dinner. The dishes on the table are getting cold."

"Almost done." Jack replied, but he didn't hear the last half sentence from Austin.

He said in a low voice, "Well, forget about her cousin. I don't think she can stir up any trouble. I have something important to do here. I have to hang up."

After hanging up the phone, Jack went back to the table. As soon as he sat down, Rachel had put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth. "I'm full."

Jonathan pointed at the dishes on the table and asked, "You haven't too much."

"I don't eat much as usual." Rachel stood up and smiled, "I want to go out for a walk before dawn. Enjoy your meal."

It was a lie for her to say that she wanted to take a walk, but she wanted to avoid them directly and avoid the intimacy with Jack.

"Then I'll go with you." Jack also stood up.

Rachel said immediately, "No, thanks. You haven't had dinner yet. You can continue to eat with your parents. I can go out for a walk alone."

"No way! It's too dangerous for you to be alone."

"That's right. It's not too late to have dinner after you finish your walk. I'll ask Julie to heat up the dishes that Jack likes."

Jonathan and Tracy said one after another, leaving no chance for Rachel to refuse. She had to agree in a low voice, "Okay."

The weather of Ning City in the past two days was not good. The sky was a little dark, and the moon was nowhere to be found. There was not even a trace of starlight in the dark sky.

Perhaps the New Year's coming. The path outside the villa was hung with all kinds of suitable lanterns, which made the night as bright as day and pulled the shadows of the two people long.

Rachel wanted to reach the lantern, but she couldn't. When she was about to give up, Jack had taken it off and handed it to her. He smiled and said, "Do you like this?"

She shook her head, neither took it nor answered.

A trace of disappointment flashed through Jack's eyes, but he still held it in his hand and played with it for a while. He said with a smile, "If you like it, I'll hang a lantern in our yard. You can see them when you sit in the living room."

Hearing his faint smile and looking at his smiling eyes, Rachel felt a slight pain in her heart. She blurted out, "Jack, we two are destined to be separated. You don't have to do so many things."

The smile on Jack's face froze all of a sudden. He stared at her and said, "Rachel, it's my business whether I do it or not. You don't have to remind me all the time that we are going to separate."

His voice became a little cold at this moment.

Looking down at his shadow on the ground, Rachel pursed her lips. She didn't mean to remind him, but to remind herself.

Jack hung the lantern back, held her hand and said in a somewhat stern voice, "Now, we two are still husband and wife, so we should live like a couple. Let's talk about it later."

Rachel raised her head and looked at him sadly. She smiled silently and asked, "But what about her?"

Even if they just got along for a short time, Rachel couldn't calm herself down. She couldn't bear that the man beside her had to deal with another woman all the time.

Or, another woman could threaten her and the baby's safety at any time.

After a while, Jack said resolutely, "Don't worry. She won't appear again. Those incidents won't happen again."

Rachel's heart sank. She looked at her in surprise and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"She left Ning City." Jack smiled faintly and pointed to a small park in front of him. "I think it's very lively there. Go and have a look?"

"Okay."

Rachel let him hold her hand and slowly walked forward.

In this period of time, she had gone through this road many times, but every time she was with Julie or herself, and it was her first time to be with him, wasn't it? But somehow, she felt a little relieved.

When they returned home, Jonathan and Tracy had left. Julie was busy in the kitchen.
