Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 54

When Jacob returned to the villa, he couldn't help but think of what Alice had said when he had dinner with her in the evening. For the first time, he doubted if he had waited right person. People were always like this. When they climbed the mountain, they wanted to see the scenery at the top of the mountain. After they finally reached the top, they began to ask about the meaning of climbing, which beset Jacob.

Wasn't this the life he had planned? Every step he took was as beautiful as he had expected, but Jacob was unhappy. 'Why? Why?' The thought of Sara flashed in Jacob's mind. 'Is it all because of love? But I love Alice.'

It seemed unreal and unreasonable. For no reason, he always thought of the resolute back and sad expression of Sara when she left the hotel. He knew how much he had gone too far, but the male hormone couldn't stop him from blaming Sara on impulse.

Was everything really over? No. He felt that everything was starting over.

After returning to the villa, Jacob returned to the Sara used to live. No matter how Alice hinted, Jacob remained unmoved. There were some things that people couldn't make repeated mistakes. Otherwise, it would be too late.

Alice was also annoyed by this. She really thought that there was something wrong with Jacob. After trying several times but failed, she secretly went to ask the doctor, but the doctor did not give an exact reply. Instead, he asked Jacob to go to the hospital for examination. Alice had to give up.

In those days, the pure love between them didn't ended in a real achievement because of Jacob's persistence. Now, were they repeating yesterday's story?

Depressed, Alice went back to her room and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. There were some things that she couldn't tell other, so no one would know. She had got the sulks herself.

Jacob lay on the bed, looking at the dim ceiling lamp. For many nights, when Sara slept in this room, how did she feel when he and Alice were in next room? Had she ever mind it or not? If she had thought about it, was it jealousy, grievance and sadness, or did she not care at all?

Guessing that a person's idea was fruitless, the consequences would make him even more confused. Jacob was eager to know the answer, so he was always in a hurry to evict Sara away and make her beg for mercy. But she didn't look back. Her arrogant head was always unwilling to lower to him in the slightest. Maybe this sense of frustration always haunted him, so he was so cruel and indifferent.

People always dislike the things and people that they are proud of. Didn't you think so? Even if others were a little arrogant, even if they were born to dislike them, you just wanted to give them a lesson. Jacob was probably this kind of person.

He wanted to get close to her, but pushed her farther and farther away. He wanted to please her, but he always had a heart that why should he please her and make things worse. He wanted to love her, but he didn't admit it.

A myriad of thoughts surged in Jacob's mind. Why did he become so sentimental? Well, when Alice went to study abroad, he didn't think too much. But now... Jacob dared not to imagine. When he was about to turn around and go to bed, Jacob raised his eyes and suddenly noticed a striking book by the bed - Abnormal Psychology.

Hesitating whether he should pick it up or not, Jacob stretched out his hand. The profile said, "It's not terrible to be sick.". The terrible thing was that she didn't know she was sick, especially mental disease. Do you often repeat the same behavior unconsciously? Do you feel depressed and at a loss every day? Do you always think that there is something wrong with your body? Is she terminally ill? Don't you feel full no matter how much you eat? Or do you want everyone in the world to be fatter than you? Have you noticed that he always tells sincere lies one after another? Did you notice that the familiar world suddenly became strange? You are on the verge of crisis. Please take your seat.

After reading the brief introduction, Jacob breathed a sigh of relief. If Sara read such a book, she would get depressed even if she was not depressed. Looking at the exaggerated introduction, he thought of the sad expression on Sara's face. Did the introduction represent her feelings?

Jacob wanted to put down the book, but he couldn't help but thumbed through Chapter 1. Turning a few pages, Jacob found it boring. He didn't know how could Sara endure to read it? He sighed and put the book aside.

He finally realized that Sara's heart was not hard-hearted. What he had done before must have an impact on her, or else she wouldn't have read such a book.

Thinking of this, he felt better unconsciously. He turned off the light and fell asleep.

It was a dreamless night. In the morning, Jacob, who was in high spirits, also noticed the small alarm clock next to him. Before Sara left, she had even considerately turned off the alarm clock. Jacob smiled imperceptibly. This lovely and stupid woman.

When Jacob went downstairs, he saw that Alice had already sat at the table and was waiting for breakfast. He couldn't help but frown. Alice didn't go to the company now, which gave Jacob some space, but also made herself resentful.

When Bess came to the company to make trouble before, and it was indeed her fault. As a result, Alice's image in front of the employees was greatly ruined, and her reputation was also defamed. If he married Alice in the future, there would be a lot of gossip. Even if he was the CEO, it was hard to guarantee that others would not say anything unpleasant, which was also a headache for Jacob.

"Why do you get up so early today? Alice why don't you sleep a little longer?" Jacob looked at the sleepy Alice and asked with concern.

"I can't fall asleep. I want to get up early and have breakfast with you." Alice smiled sweetly.

"By the way, Alice, you can go to the jewelry store to have a look after the formalities are completed in these two days. Do you want to be a free rider or anything else? I bought it in your name. " Jacob said indifferently.

Alice's eyes widened, "Really? Thank you, Jacob. "

Indeed, Alice didn't expect that Jacob would buy it under her name. In this way, she would really be the owner of the jewelry store. Too many people wanted to spend their whole lives to get the wealth, but she could get it easily. It was exciting to think about it. Alice was in a good mood.

Standing at the gate of the villa and watching [时俊]'s car disappear in her sight, she couldn't wait to take out her phone and send a WeChat message to her good friend, Melissa.

Alice: A picture of a jewelry store. It's a gift from Jacob.

Melissa: Jewelry?

Alice: Don't be so stingy. It's a jewelry store!

Melissa: Wow, Alice, Jacob not only has money, but also spoils you so much! Marry him as soon as possible!

Alice: Anthomaniac.

Turning off the phone, she suddenly felt a little unhappy as if she was stuck at the Shi clan. But thinking of Jacob, Alice smiled happily again.

One's favor was worthy of ten thousand people's praise.

Alice imagined the scene that she married Jacob, and suddenly thought of Sara. What a haunting woman!

Suddenly, her phone rang. It was a call from Melissa.

"Hello, Melissa. What's the matter? " Alice lowered her voice.

"Hey, what's wrong? You look like a thief. Alice, you have to treat us to dinner to celebrate your jewelry store. " Melissa's clear voice came to Alice ears.

"Well, let's take a rain check later. I've been busy recently, and I don't want Jacob to know that I'm so complacent. " Alice said impatiently.

"Well, I have to hang up now." Melissa knew what was going on and didn't want to spoil her own mood.
