My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 310

The excuse was pretty lame.

Fortunately, Billy didn't think too much into it. Instead, he raised his hand and ran his fingers down her locks. "Where do you live? Do you mind taking me upstairs with you? I don't want to wait for you outside the building like a fool next time."

"Okay."

Rachel changed from her formal dress into more casual clothing. After sitting for a while, Bill left. She tidied herself up and walked to the hospital.

When the shop assistant saw Jack entering the store, she immediately walked up to him.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

Jack glanced around and pointed at a phone sitting on top of the counter, indicating that he wanted to take a closer look.

The assistant quickly unlocked the glass and handed it to him. "You have good taste, sir. Is it for your girlfriend? This phone is far more suitable for women with its great camera and effects."

Jack's thumb grazed across the pink backdrop of the phone before taking out his card. "Pack it for me."

He drove to the hospital and planned to give Rachel the phone.

Once he saw her walking into the office, he handed her the phone with a smile. "I broke your phone last night, so I bought one for you."

Not expecting him to do this, Rachel scratched the back of her neck and pulled out the very same phone from her pocket. "I've also bought a new one."

It would be inconvenient for her to live without a phone even for a day, so she asked Lucas to fill in for her for an hour. She went to the nearby mobile phone store and bought one within ten minutes.

"Just in case."

Jack still insisted in putting the phone on her table.

Rachel didn't want to say anything more to him. She gazed at him indifferently. "I have something else to do," she stated.

It was obvious that she was asking him to leave.

Jack sat in the car for a long time as he rubbed the space in between his eyebrows. His forehead creased, showing his exhaustion.

He couldn't help but recall what had happened last night. It seemed that he was being too impulsive.

Just as he was thinking of what to do next, his phone vibrated. Suddenly, messages from Celine popped up on his screen.

On the other side of the City, Celine sneezed and threw her tissue into the trash can.

She stared at her phone for a long time, only to receive no response.

Last night, she stood at the entrance of the hotel for more than two hours.

Although there were taxi cabs waiting for her, she thought that Jack would be coming to pick her up, so she refused them without any hesitation.

She was hoping that Jack's car would come back to pick her up.

However, as the skies darkened before her, she had no other choice but to walk slowly back to her hotel in her high heels.

The cold night blew her over, causing her to catch a cold. Of course, she could blame no one but Rachel.

If Rachel didn't show up, then Jack wouldn't have left her.

Thinking of this, her eyes flashed. After changing her clothes, Celine called Tracy. "Hi, this is Celine. Are you free, Aunt Tracy?"

"Why?" Tracy's voice was clipped and emotionless.

"I have a set of skin care products for you," she said. "I could drop them off today."

"I'll be going out."

In the past few years, not only had Celine tried her best to stick to Jack, but she had also bought gifts to please Tracy from time to time.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the cafe near your house."

Celine bought a bag of skin care products with her and arrived there in advance. She ordered a cup of coffee for Tracy and a glass of water for herself.

Although the cold wasn't as serious, when she saw Tracy coming in, she pretended to cough violently. Her cheeks flushed.

Tracy raised her eyebrow. "Did you catch a cold?"

She nodded and handed the skin care products to her. "You can try. If you think they're good, then I can ask my friend to buy another set."

The set of skin care products wasn't cheap. Tracy asked, "How much is it? I'll give you the money." "There's no need."

Faced with the cash that Tracy tried to hand over, Celine was very tempted to take them. However, she stopped herself. This was already a way for her to please the Fu family and set the foundation if she would ever be with Jack.
