Stuck in you
Chapter 101 Made A Mistake
Jack nodded. "Okay, I'll take care of her."
The old doctor tied the bandage after wrapping it around Rachel's ankle. He stood up and smiled at them. "I'm happy that you brought your boyfriend here, Rachel."
'Boyfriend?'
Rachel's face began heating up. Shyly, she smiled and nodded her head awkwardly. She wondered what Jack was feeling. Casting a glance at him, she found that he acted as calm as ever.
After the doctor had finished giving them instructions, Rachel and Jack thanked him. As the pair walked out, Jack bent down to carry her in his arms.
Rachel blushed and hid her face in his arms. "Jack, could you please stop hugging me like that? I feel embarrassed."
He raised his eyebrows expressionlessly. "But the doctor told me to take care of you. This is my way of making sure that you're okay."
"He meant that I shouldn't exhaust my feet. He didn't mean that you should coddle me like a child!"
Jack retorted defensively, "Hey, I just want to help you! Don't get mad at me!"
She opened her mouth to refute, but failed to come up with a good come-back. Jack smirked as her face slowly reddened.
Without further protesting, she allowed Jack to continue carrying her out of the doctor's office. While they were bickering, they encountered a familiar person.
Upon seeing Lucas, she struggled to get down. However, Jack didn't let her go. "Stop, you're going to hurt yourself," he scolded.
She began to calm down and awkwardly raised her head to look at the man in front of them. "Hi, Lucas."
Lucas looked at their intimate position. Pretending not to notice it, he nodded towards their direction. "What are you guys doing here?"
Jack blankly stared at him and replied, "She needed to be treated in the hospital."
Lucas' eyes fell on Rachel's injured ankle, an unnatural expression on his handsome face.
He wanted to say something to comfort her, but didn't know what to say. "I'm so sorry. About yesterday..."
"It's okay. You don't have to keep apologizing to me," Rachel said with a smile.
A smile curled at the corners of Lucas' mouth. He gently touched his nose. Everyone fell silent, awkwardly standing in the hallway.
Just as Rachel was about to break free from his arms, Jack tightly pressed her body up against his.
Before she could say something, Jack said, "We are leaving now."
Before neither Lucas nor Rachel could speak, Jack walked off with her in his arms.
They attracted numerous attention along the way. Rachel was so embarrassed that she gritted her teeth and buried her head into his arms.
