Chapter 292 Rachel Found Out

Eric ultimately decided to make himself a cup of coffee after he yawned a second time.

"It's quite late, Rachel. Did you have a fight with Jack?" He always felt that Jack was not a reliable guy when it came to relationships.

'A leopard cannot change its spots.

It has only been a short time, and he has already started to show his true colors,' he thought.

"Rachel, I'm telling you, it's not too late to leave him and look for a better man. You should divorce him as soon as possible! And you don't have to worry. I have a stable job now. I can take care of you from now on!"

Eric thumped on his chest as he gave her his solemn promise.

When she heard his words, Rachel couldn't help laugh out loudly. "It's good that you now have a stable job because that means you don't need to bother me in the future."

"I am a responsible man now!" Eric felt that it was rare for him to have something to brag about to Rachel and he couldn't stop himself from feeling proud about it.

But his thoughts were suddenly interrupted when his phone rang.

As soon as he answered the call on his phone, the sound of Jack's voice came out loudly. "Open the door!"

Jack's voice through Eric's phone was loud enough to be heard by Rachel.

'He's here already?' Eric thought to himself.

"I'm sleeping," he answered back to Jack on the phone. He then hung up the phone afterwards.

Eric then grabbed Rachel's arm and pushed her into the bedroom. "Go to bed now, Rachel. You still need to go to work tomorrow," he suggested. But she pushed him back gently.

"Go to sleep. Let me open the door," she said calmly.

Rachel originally planned to stay at Eric's place so that she and Jack could calm down.

When the two of them

feel very bad right now.

Later that day, Jack and Rachel sat side by side on the sofa. She was busy with her head bent down as she flipped through a women's magazine. She had an indifferent expression on her face. He reached out to her hair and tucked it behind her ear. He then handed her an apple that he just peeled.

"Tell me, is it delicious?"

Jack placed the fruit knife down on the table and watched her bite into the apple.

Rachel nodded at him as she chewed down the apple, but she put aside the rest of it. She then slightly turned towards him and looked at him straight in the eye. "You fell asleep when you were halfway to what you were saying. Do you want to clarify that?"

She has her mind made up on something and she was determined about it at that moment.

But before he could answer, she continued to speak. "Last Wednesday, when you attended a dinner, I went to Lucas' house for dinner too because his father had invited me for dinner previously. I wanted you to go with me, but when I found out about your schedule for that evening, I decided not to mention it to you anymore."

It was something that obviously tore at his heart so she wanted to explain it clearly to him.

She didn't think she had done anything wrong.

Jack's jaw became visibly tense as he tried to recall the details of that conversation between the two of them. The details of the conversation slowly became clearer to him as he thought about them.

She stared at him for a moment and then continued to speak. "I know I should have told you about it from the very beginning, but I didn't and it's my fault. I was not considerate enough."

Even though they had been married, she had lived as a single woman for five years.
