Chapter 85 Sleep In The Same Bed

Jack and Rachel were in the same bed. Although it was not their first time to sleep together, he felt more uncomfortable.

He was scared that he would dream of Rachel again and wake up in the middle of the night. Since her smell was all over the room, he might not be able to resist the desire of his body later on.

Just like what Rachel had said to Lea before, she felt she fell into a trap. She and Jack had to live together, have meals at the same table, and sleep in the same bed.

Both of them lay in the bed stiffly. They felt surreal. Jack's mind was in a total mess. Every time he turned his head, all he could smell was Rachel's scent.

Eventually, he couldn't take it anymore so he turned to face her.

"What's that smell of yours?" he asked. Rachel was surprised to hear his question. She unconsciously lifted her hand and smelled her wrist. "What smell? I don't smell anything," she answered.

'Of course you can't smell your own self,' Jack thought inwardly.

"What body wash are you using?" he asked again.

Rachel told him the brand, which was nothing special. Jack closed his eyes but he still couldn't sleep. Some obscene images occupied his mind and made him feel restless. He kept on tossing and turning in the bed.

He thought Rachel might kill him with her scalpel if he wanted to have sex with her.

'No! My father will definitely kill me before I can do that,' he thought to himself.

Rachel felt

d her best to fall asleep.

When Jack woke up the next morning, Rachel was still sleeping soundly like a baby.

This moment gave him an opportunity to stare at her innocent face. She looked so beautiful in the morning.

He then got out of the bed quietly so not to disturb her sleep.

He walked softly down the stairs. The entire house looked quiet and empty.

Their house was a three-story villa with a small garden so it wasn't small.

It was actually perfect for a family of three. Living alone in this kind of house would be so lonesome.

As he reached downstairs, he stopped at the living room and looked around with a smile.

He was reminded the last time when he was here watching Rachel doing her yoga.

He flashed a smile at the thought of her.

When Rachel woke and readied herself, she was about to go to work.

Jonathan and Mendes were still sleeping when Jack went to check on them.

Rachel had planned to bring Mendes to the hospital, but since he was still sleeping, she decided not to wake him up.

She looked at her watch and said to Jack, "Can you take care of Mendes first? I'll inform Lucas' driver to pick him up later when he wakes up."

"Of course. You don't have to worry about him. Dad won't leave after he wakes up," Jack answered with a nod.

Rachel felt glad that many people loved and cared for Mendes. She couldn't understand why his parents abandoned such a sweet and loving child.
