Chapter 472 Your Aunt Passed Away

"About what?" Jack finally raised his head, but his voice was so calm it didn't even waver for a second.

Rachel lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly. "What do you think?"

As soon as she said those words, Jack looked away and lowered his head again. He held out his chopsticks to pick on the vegetables on his plate, but he didn't respond any further.

Rachel felt like her chest was stuffed with a big mass of cotton, it was suffocating. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Where have you been these past two days?"

It turned out that asking this question was not as difficult as she thought. That question had been weighing down on her mind for several days and now she was finally relieved.

Jack closed his eyes for a while. When he opened them again, his clear eyes gradually became a little stormy. They carried too much unspoken emotions. He reached out to hold Rachel's hand tightly. "Your aunt passed away."

'My aunt passed away?'

Looking straight at into his eyes for a while, Rachel suddenly grinned and laughed. "Jack, are you kidding me? I just had a video chat with Eric and the two of them were laughing happily. How could she pass away all of a sudden?"

She looked up, withdrew her hand, and pressed it on her forehead. She kept denying what she heard. "No, my aunt is very healthy. How could she suddenly die?"

"Rachel, calm down." Jack looked at her

down? Call me if you need anything. I'll be upstairs soon."

"We're just separated by one floor. It's too troublesome to make a phone call." Compared with yesterday, Rachel's mood was much more stable.

She held Jack's hand and asked, "Have you booked the tickets? When are we going there?"

"The date isn't decided yet. Do you want to wait another two days? Let's wait for your physical condition to stabilize," he said and looked at Rachel worriedly.

Shaking her head, Rachel insisted, "I'm fine now. Let's go tomorrow, okay?"

Seeing that Jack didn't agree immediately, she persuaded more. "If I don't go see Eric, I would be restless even if I stay here. Jack, let me go there."

"Okay." Jack understood her point. There was only one thing in her mind so how could she possibly just sit here and wait?

What was more, he was actually a little worried about Eric. The psychologist called him in the morning to update him about Eric's condition. He said that Eric had a tendency to fall into depression and his future condition might be bleak.

Once things were finalized, Rachel felt that time was moving faster. She sat in her seat as soon as she got on the plane. She tightly held a seal in her hands and whispered, "Eric, you need to be strong. You will be fine."

Jack gently covered her with a blanket. When he saw the thing on her hand, he asked, "What's that?"
