Chapter 362 Caught The Thief

Name:Trapped In Lace Author:Goose
Seeing Rachel was all alone, the cleaner kindly reminded her that it was time for breakfast.

With a nod and a smile toward the cleaner, Rachel tied her hair behind her head with a rubber band. She was about to get out of the bed when she heard Eric's voice coming from the door of the ward. "Hospital fare must terrible. Rachel, I've prepared your favorite breakfast⁠—porridge with minced pork and pancakes."

"Eric! Why are you here so early?"

Rachel looked up with a confused expression, ready to ask more, but then choked when she saw Jack follow the other man into the ward.

'Why is he here, too?

After I specifically told Eric not to tell him...'

Noticing her questioning look, Eric quickly put down the breakfast in his hand and wisely chose to run away. He covered his stomach and exaggeratedly said, "Ugh, I'm not feeling too well. I must have drunk too much water just now. I need go to the bathroom."

He patted Jack's arm and left the ward in a flash.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little quiet.

Rachel's eyes shifted from side to side. She didn't know where to look and what to say to break the silence between them.

After a long while, she bit her lower lip and opened her mouth to say, "You⁠..."

"You⁠..." To her surprise, Jack said it at the same time she did.

The two of them froze again.

After a while, Jack came forward, opened the takeaway bag, took out a spoon, and handed it to her. "H

icemen, "Officer, I really just wanted to steal money, nothing else! This is an injustice!"

"You feel wronged?"

The policeman was not a fool. He glared at the culprit, pounded the table, and yelled angrily, "Then why were your hands reaching toward the victim to touch her? You feel wronged? There is no one else less deserving of that emotion than you!"

The young man's legs trembled with fear, but he still insisted that he had no intentions of raping Rachel.

After that momentary stalemate, the police had no choice but to lock him up temporarily and take their time to investigate him

As soon as the policemen took the man out of the interrogation room, Jack and Rachel arrived. Jack suddenly lunged forward and grabbed the young man's collar tightly with one hand. His other hand clenched into a fist, and he landed a heavy punch in the other man's face.

The young man's hands were tightly handcuffed, and he was unable to fight back.

The two policemen flanking him glanced at each other at the same time. Considering Jack's identity, they didn't know whether they should dissuade his actions. After hesitating for a few seconds, one of them said in a soft voice, "Mr. Fu, stop beating him up."

Seeing that Jack was about to raise his fist again to attack the culprit, Rachel quickly grabbed his wrist and shook her head. "They've already caught him. It's pointless to beat him up again.

Let the police handle it."
