Stuck in you Chapter 214 Ligation

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

As Jack stepped out of the shower, he noticed that Rachel was drying her hair.

He approached her slowly. She looked up at him and continued nonchalantly.

He grabbed the towel and said, "Let me do this for you."

She stared at the mirror attentively to check how he was carefully helping her wipe her hair. They

looked like any other couple with a bond extending to many decades.

After having done half the task, he sought refuge in the hair dryer to complete his task. His method was

a little clumsy but gentle.

He could feel her aroma filling the room as he put the hair dryer back to its place.

There was a sudden change in his mood. After seeing the pregnancy test kit, he suddenly remembered

something.

Jack wasn't entirely sure of telling her about this, so he turned to look at her and said,

"Rachel, you..." He paused abruptly as he ran out of words.

He wanted to know if Rachel wished for a baby.

Jack concealed something from her.

He had already done a ligation operation years ago.

He did it for Celine's sake. During that time, he couldn't marry Celine and she was frustrated about it.

He also had perpetual disputes with her due to Rachel.

He couldn't bear Celine's tears. He was grief-stricken because of it. On the third day when he returned,

he showed her that ligation certificate.

For a man, this was not a petty matter.

He had concealed the truth from everyone. None but the surgeon and Celine were aware of it.

If his father ever got a whiff of it, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Even Jack had no idea how he could've been so crazy back then.

As Celine's tears and accusations compounded, he was coerced to undergo the ligation operation.

The moment when he showed Celine the certificate, she was stunned with joy and panic in her heart.

She was delighted that Jack was willing to do this for her. She was simultaneously worried that if the Fu

family knew about it, she would be cursed and blamed.

Since he had conducted the operation, she would never be pregnant even if they had sex.

But that also meant that other women wouldn't be pregnant either if he had slept with them.

Her status couldn't be altered. Besides, Celine was sure that Jack wouldn't have an affair with any

other woman.

He was so deeply in love with her

that he would give up his own children without any hesitation. After so many years,

Celine had reached the understanding that she could handle him really well.

But she hadn't anticipated that they would break up due to her intense greed.

The single most important reason for their break-up could be summed up in just one thing—her greed.

Celine regretted it eventually, but she consoled herself by believing that the time she had spent with

him was worth a lifetime.

She had seen more when she had been with him than during the rest of her lifetime.

She simply wanted more and more. However, Jack turned out to be not so accommodative to her

demands.

He refused to give her a formal title and she had to bear that humiliation throughout the course of their

relationship.

It made her angry and agitated, which she wasn't able to express in any form.

Therefore, when another man courted her, Celine didn't refuse him though she didn't say yes either.

Her attitude seemed ambiguous. She knew how to manipulate the man.

And it could arouse Jack's possessive desire for her. That was her ultimate aim.

But fate had other ideas for her as her plan failed miserably. At this point, it was impossible for Celine

not to regret having lost him, but it was just going to be a regret as the opportunity to return to him had

long gone.

What disturbed her the most was that it was Rachel who had substituted her.

Why did it have to be Rachel?

She had been jealous of this woman for four years. But she was also complacent about it because she

had won a firm hold of Jack. She had been arrogant towards her for four years.

She felt so proud and pleased just because she could trample that woman under her feet.

No matter what an outstanding woman Rachel was, Jack had chosen Celine, a hotel waitress. That

was something Celine was proud of.

But now, after they broke up, Jack returned to Rachel voluntarily. How could Celine not be furious

about it?

It was as if Rachel was taking a revenge on her for the many years of misery.

He and his wife continued to live their lives to the fullest.

She even came across a news article that described Jack and Rachel as an inseparable couple.

But she was nothing! She, Rachel, was just a joke! As far as Celine was concerned, Rachel was simply

a joke!

But now, here she was, kicked out of the Ninwell City.

She had to give up all her pride and vanity ever since Jack broke up with her.

She wasn't given any money either. The person she considered as a joke was now the center of

attention of everybody around.

Celine regretted each of her decisions that got her life into this condition.

Now she had a new boyfriend. But she soon found that her boyfriend was far inferior to Jack.

He was nowhere as good as Jack. She had been so blind to think that this guy was much better than

Jack some time ago.

When she was sent away from the city by Fu family, this man still chased her until here.

At that time, Celine was moved by him, but now she felt utterly disgusted.

Ironically, she had no choice but to get along with him right now.

However resentful she was, he was her only ticket back to the Ninwell City.

A return to Ninwell City meant that she would have the chance to see Jack again. She didn't believe

that his love for her that had been nurtured over the past four years would dissipate in just a few

months.

Even if it was true, she wouldn't let Rachel take advantage of it so easily.

Thinking about this, she licked her lips and took a capsule from her pocket. She crushed the capsule in

between her fingers and neatly sprinkled the fine powder into the drink.

She stirred it with a spoon and the yellow powder dissolved almost immediately in the liquid.

This man had a habit of drinking red wine before going to bed. Although the Hu family was not as

powerful as the Fu family, it was still a prestigious name in and around Ninwell City.

Every time Celine went to Ninwell City, she would be expelled by people sent by Jonathan. But what if

she came back with this man?

She didn't think she would be expelled again.

Even if Jonathan had the guts to do so, this man wouldn't let it go easily.

Baron Hu was an extremely protective man. He had pursued Celine for a long time.

It took a long time for him to get a nod from Celine, and she even dropped some hints that they could

have sex.

But Celine didn't know why he didn't have sex with her. She didn't figure it out until a popular rumor

reached her ears.

Baron Hu was incompetent in bed, and he'd been under treatment for a while.

Celine felt both disgusted and despised. As his condition had gotten better recently, he couldn't wait to

come over to her tonight.

She gritted her teeth. Although she was least interested in it, she had to endure it. After all, this man

was her only bargaining chip.

That was when an idea came rushed into Celine's head and she adulterated his wine for fun.

She knew how to make a man head over heels in love with her.

If Baron Hu slept with her, he would continue to be fascinated by her.

When Celine entered the room with a glass of wine in her hand, Baron Hu had already taken a shower.

Being in his late twenties, he did not look fat or thin. As he took off his clothes, she observed that he

had ample belly fat. His muscles were loose and unappealing. His face was pale, but there were many

spots on his face. He was average looking, with nothing other than a pair of good-looking eyes to be

attracted to.

Holding back her disgust, Celine sensually offered the glass wine to him, and then snuggled into his

arms with a sweet smile. "Baron..."

"Honey, we don't need to sleep early tonight. Let's do something else..." As he spoke, he impatiently

put his hands on her body.

Celine suppressed her disgust and blinked at him with her beautiful eyes. She took a sip of the red

wine from her glass and approached his lips.

In his seductive eyes, he saw Celine as a woman who was actively presenting herself to him. Nothing

could be further from the truth.

The rest of the night was an obscure memory for her. The day after her return to Ninwell City, she laid

her eyes on the person she was eagerly waiting to meet at the banquet.

Celine was wearing a lilac strapless dress, which was uniquely cut in the chest area showing her curvy

and beautiful bosoms.

Men almost always looked at her chest intentionally or unintentionally. As for Baron Hu, he was so

proud of his woman because she always attracted others' attention.

It was a significantly different attitude when compared to Jack. He'd never allow his woman to show up

in this way and let others stare at her in public.

Celine had frequently raised her complaints to Rona about his overbearing attitude in private.

In contrast with Baron Hu, Celine realized that Jack was a good man.

When Baron Hu saw an old acquaintance, he walked towards him and completely ignored her. Celine

heaved a euphoric sigh of relief.

She sneaked into a quiet corner and found that her shoes didn't fit her feet. She was in excruciating

pain, but Baron Hu didn't notice it at all.

Resentment filled her heart as Celine raised her eyebrows. The man she both hated and loved, just

appeared in front of her, arm in arm with another woman.

It was the third time that Rachel was attending a banquet with Jack. Considering the ominous history of

the occurrence of an undesirable event every time she accompanied him,

she remained alert throughout her time in the banquet hall because she was afraid that history would

repeat itself. Luckily, everything had gone perfectly until now.

This was a groundbreaking appearance for her because this was the first time she was formally being

introduced as Jack's wife.

Before they entered the hall with all the glory and pomp, Jack had held her hands and asked softly,

"Rachel, are you afraid?"
