Stuck in you novel Chapter 9

In the end, Rachel and Jack parted in discord.

After returning to her office, Rachel planned to find another apartment for Eric, one that was much closer to the hospital so that she could help him in case something bad happened.

'Anyway, Eric is my brother! I don't think Celine would dare to set him up with me keeping an eye on him!' she thought.

She called one of her friends and asked him to find a new apartment for Eric.

After she hung up the phone, she went to complete the discharging formalities for Eric.

Then, she went to his ward.

Eric was sitting on the bed and feeling bored. As soon as he saw Rachel walk in, he asked, "Rachel, where have you been? Where is Celine?"

Seeing her little brother's careful expression, Rachel suddenly felt helpless. Eric knew very well that she didn't want to hear him mention Celine, but he really couldn't help inquiring about her whereabouts.

Who could she blame? Her brother was acting like a child now. Both Jack and Eric were selfish when it came to Celine and didn't care about others' feelings.

"You can leave the hospital soon," Rachel said coldly.

"Really?" Eric couldn't believe his ears. He felt bored out of his mind after staying in the ward all these days.

"Eric, I warned you last time. Stop seeing Celine. Otherwise, I won't be able to save you the next time Jack comes for you," Rachel said seriously.

"That's between me and Celine. I like her, and she's willing to come here to see me. It's none of Jack's business," Eric retorted. He believed that Jack was just bullying everyone because of his power. Anyway, last time, he had just made a mistake because of his carelessness. Now that he was seeing Celine seriously, there was no reason for Jack to step in.

Moreover, Jack was a scumbag. He was married to his sister, and yet he was brazenly pursuing Celine in front of so many people. Eric just couldn't understand why his sister would marry such a man. "Jack is not a good person. He doesn't respect you at all! You should divorce him."
