Chapter 148 Verbose Eric

Rachel tried her best to comfort Eric. "If you don't mind, you can have a cosmetic surgery."

"It doesn't matter. It's easy for a man to get scars," Eric chuckled.

"Go and find someone to give you more scars then!" Rachel slapped his shoulder and laughed.

"Ouch! You don't have to be so cruel, I'm not that stupid," said Eric as he lowered his head.

Rachel crossed her arms and frowned. "Then why were you so impulsive? You're a grown man, Eric. You're not a kid anymore, make better decisions!" He shook his head and snickered. "Alright already, I will. I'll stop being impulsive."

"Good. If this ever happens again, I'll be the one to add more scars on you," she said as she applied the ointment on Eric's scar.

Eric winced and the corner of his mouth twitched. Who knew Rachel could be this scary?

Rachel noticed that her ointment had run out and she rummaged through the medicine kit for another one. Suddenly, someone tapped on her shoulder and held out the ointment before her.

It was Jack. She didn't even notice when he got here.

Rachel took the medicine from his hand and said, "When did you get here? Why didn't you say something?"

"I just came in. Didn't you hear me come in?"

"No, I didn't notice. Anyway, thanks for this."

Eric wanted to turn his head to see Jack, but Rachel told him not to move.

Eric made no effort to contest and stayed still.

Jack leaned his back on the wall while crossing his arms and smiling. He noticed that Rachel was in a better mood than yesterday.

"Are you free today?" asked Rachel.

Jack was surprised. Was she trying to drive him away?

After a few seconds of ponderi

doubt about what's happening?"

Rachel closed her book and stood up. "I'm going to sit somewhere else."

With a confused look on his face, Eric didn't say anything more. He tucked some fruit into his mouth and contemplated. "Does Jack always have to do everything at the spur of the moment?" Before Rachel went somewhere else, she heard Eric muttering something to himself.

She didn't respond. She just took it as a senseless murmur, but she couldn't help but clench her book.

What he said was not really wrong.

Even if she tried to shrug it off, Eric's words kept lingering in her ears like flies.

With no more patience, she closed the book in her hand hard. Eric was startled while talking.

When he turned around, Rachel stood from the sofa with no expression on her face. She walked over to pour a glass of water for herself.

'Why is she getting angry?' Eric thought to himself.

He stared at her with vigilance as she poured a glass of water and drank it. Then she sat back on the sofa to continue reading.

Knowing that Rachel wasn't in the mood, Eric thought it was prudent to not bother her anymore. But he couldn't help but wonder if she had a fight with Jack or not.

That day, Jack led her upstairs and came downstairs after a few minutes. Then he never came after he left.

Eric figured that must've felt so bored that it was the only thing worthwhile to think about right now.

Now that he thought about it, perhaps it was best that they had a big fight and he never came back at all!

Eric stared at Rachel, and thought that Jack didn't deserve her. He should just let her find a better man and be happy for once.
