Given the current situation, Jack was afraid that the relationship between him and Rachel would be destroyed for good.
In fact, the person who tried to drive Celine away from the city wasn't sent by Jonathan, but by one of Baron's ex-girlfriends.
After Jack found out about this, he decided to let it go, as it had nothing to do with his family.
The next day, Jonathan found that Celine came back to the city and was in contact with Jack again.
This was why Jonathan wasted no time in calling Jack over.
What pissed him off was the fact that he didn't hear it from his son but from a passerby.
Given that Jack and Jack emerging in public as a couple wasn't a small matter, word got around pretty fast.
A friend of Jonathan's called him up to congratulate him.
"Where have you been hiding your daughter-in-law?" the man said jokingly. Jonathan laughed. "We didn't hide her."
Tracy could hear her husband's laughter from the balcony. She smiled and shook her head.
After watering the flowers and plants on the balcony, she placed the watering can on the side and went ahead to wash her hands. The night wind brought a sense of heat from afar. The leaves of her plants swayed from the breeze as if waving at her.

However, no matter how much he knocked on the door or rang the doorbell, she still didn't answer.
Soon enough, fifteen minutes had passed.
Still, no one responded. After standing for a while, Jack decided to input the password. The door clicked open.
After hesitating for a while, he pushed the door.
There was a shoe rack next to the entry way. Jack initially had no intention in observing what shoes were displayed on the rack,
but something caught his eye.
He froze. Why were their men's shoes on the rack?
Who would visit her this early in the morning?
With his hands clenched, he stalked in and surveyed the empty living room.
He didn't realize that he looked like a wolf patrolling around his territory.
However, as he searched the room, he found no traces of another man living here.
He glanced at the kitchen to see it almost untouched. Didn't she get up yet?
