Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 38

"We are just partners. As for other things, I didn't do anything wrong to the Shi clan. Sitting at the table, Sara hadn't had a chance to eat yet, so she didn't want to eat. Sure enough, it depended on people's appetite to eat.

"The media won't believe what you said, and even trifles will be exposed to the public. I say it again. You can't cooperate with Ethan. Understand?" Jacob looked domineering, as if he was announcing a trifle that had nothing to do with him.

"Jacob, if you don't announce our divorce all your life, I will be the shadow of your family in name all my life? Why? Why are you wasting my time? " The calmer her tone was, the less flustered she could be. What's the difference between Jacob and those fussy media?

"A lifetime? You are too naive. How could I not announce the divorce all my life? I'm just about to develop the new energy industry and it's on the listed stage. The announcement will have a great impact on the company. It's more appropriate to announce it after the company stabilized. " Jacob said indifferently, as if it didn't matter what happened to Sara.

With her chopsticks pounding heavily on the table, Sara looked askance at Jacob and said, "Jacob, remember how you treated me today. You will regret it one day."

Sara stood up and walked to the living room. She picked up her bag and went upstairs. A deep sense of powerlessness swept over her. Was Jacob really his nemesis? Why did he do this to her?

Putting her bag on the small table in the bedroom, Sara walked into the bathroom.

Not everyone had a reason and will to stand in their own position, so she should be stronger. But the tears were still dripping down along with the flowing water. It was hard to tell whether they were tears or water spurting from the shower head. Sara helplessly let the water slowly flow through her body to comfort her injured heart.

Jacob looked embarrassed. 'Did I really go too far?' He wondered. No, compared with what Sara had done to hook up with man outside, what Jacob had done was nothing. He just wanted to stop her from going astray. He did nothing wrong.

He couldn't believe that Sara would be so excited. Since she came back, Jacob felt that his understanding of Sara was changing every day. And this kind of change was not for the good, but for the bad. The only trace of guilt to Sara was gone.

He had thought that Sara wouldn't affect him at all, but now it seemed that it was not the case. But he didn't expect that he would be so angry when he knew that Sara had a close relationship with another man. Moreover, this kind of anger was no less than that when Alice insisted on breaking up with him. Jacob couldn't figure out what was on his mind. He just wanted to Sara keep her nose clean and don't make trouble for him as his wife. Now it seemed that there were many troubles, but he had many ways.

Alice, who had been sitting quietly, said, "Jacob, I was wondering if there would be any misunderstanding between us. It seems that there is." The duplicity in Alice's heart had already blossomed. She had thought that Sara would admit that she had an intimate relationship with Ethan, which made Jacob completely disappointed in her. But she didn't expect that Sara denied it. This was good. Explanation was equal to hiding, and hiding was the truth.

However, there was only one thing that upset her. No matter how angry Jacob was, he never had the intention to let Sara move out of the villa. This was exactly what made Alice uneasy. She was afraid that Sara would threaten her as long as she stayed in the villa. After all, this woman had beauty and wisdom, which was a fatal temptation to all men.

"No matter what misunderstandings there are, Sara shouldn't have flirted with other men outside. Alice, You don't have to put in a good word for her. " Then Jacob went upstairs.

Winnie retreated to the kitchen when she heard their talk, and she probably understood what was going on. She felt that something was wrong and that Sara seemed to be wronged. But Winnie didn't dare to say anything. After all, her words didn't work. If she did a disservice, Winnie would blame herself.

Dora was sleeping in her kennel in the living room, she seemed to have heard the quarrel just now. With her head down, she seemed to be in a bad mood and frightened, but she was so quiet that she did not make a sound.

Alice didn't go upstairs until she finished eating. Alice was in a good mood, which couldn't affect her mood at all.

In the room, Jacob was lying on the bed and sleeping on his side. Alice crawled into the quilt and held Jacob's back. Jacob pulled away Alice's hand and said, "I'm tired today. Go to sleep."

Alice replied unwillingly, "Jacob..."

Jacob still didn't respond. With her back to Jacob, Alice pulled the quilt angrily and fell asleep.

Since last time, they had no sex. Alice couldn't figure out whether it was a physical or psychological problem. No matter what happened, Alice would not be happy. Besides, Sara was still living in the villa, which was like a time bomb, reminding her all the time. Then she fell asleep.

On the weekend, at a cocktail party. Sara was wearing a purple backless evening dress, and the sequins on it were dazzling in the light. Seeing that Sara was sitting quietly aside, Jonathan walked up to her with a sly look in his eyes.

Looking up at Jonathan, Sara couldn't avoid such a moment.

"May I have the honor to invite you to dance?" Jonathan laughed in disgust.

"No, thanks. I'm not feeling well today. I don't want to dance." Sara politely refused. After all, if she said it too directly, Jonathan would be embarrassed and didn't know what trouble she would make.

"You don't want to dance, or you don't want to dance with me?" Jonathan continued to smile.

"You think too much. I am not myself today." A stubborn look appeared on Sara's delicate face.

"Sara, since you have divorced Jacob, you can consider me. I will treat you better than [Jacob. Don't worry. Besides, I will be the boss of the Shi clan sooner or later. You must have such a taste, don't you? " Jonathan looked at his prey with a sly smile.

A feeling of nausea surged in Sara's heart, but she didn't lose her temper. She had to smile apologetically. "Thank you for your kindness, brother." She didn't want to say anything more.

Sara called Jonathan brother seemed worked. He nodded and glanced at Sara. Then he walked into the crowd.

In the distance, Thompson came over with a goblet of whisky in it. The wine gave off a charming fragrance.

"Long time no see, Sara."

Sara clinked glasses with Thompson, "Long time no see, Thompson."

"Are you still unhappy recently?" Thompson had grown up abroad and didn't like to beat around the bush. Besides, he had just seen from a distance that Jonathan was drooling over her, which made him sick. Of course, it made Sara in a bad mood.

Thompson still had some impression of Jonathan who only indulged himself in dissipation and flirting with women. He was incapable, but he had a bad temper and coveted the position of CEO of the Shi Group. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Shi Group would go bankrupt in less than two years if it was taken over to Jonathan.

It was easy to start up business, but difficult to maintain it. Everyone knew this truth.

Shaking her head, Sara answered, "I'm not unhappy. I'm just not feeling well."

Thompson stopped asking. Sometimes it was not a wise move to get to the bottom of the matter.
