Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 171

The ferocious face of Thompson kept echoing in Sara's mind. She didn't know why he always didn't let her go. She didn't know why Jacob could find her so fast.

She would never know that Jacob looked for her in all the bars one by one on the street, and then looked for hotels one by one. Finally, he found her.

However, Jacob knew how much she had suffered in her heart. He felt so sorry for her.

Thompson the bastard. He would make his life a living hell...

Jacob stood straight, holding Sara in his arms.

The moment he looked down, he saw the bandaged wounds on her hand. No wonder he didn't miss saving her. It turned out that she was injured.

On the one hand, he felt sorry for her, and on the other hand, he felt lucky. 'Fortunately, you are fine, or I will never forgive myself.'

After putting Sara on the back seat, Jacob was frightened by her dull eyes.

Would she be so absent-minded and lose her most vigorous look in the past?

Would he step on a road of no return from now on?

Jacob felt a headache. Assistant Cindy in the driver's seat glanced at Sara from the rearview mirror. The situation of her was not good.

Perhaps, the boss finally got the answer after looking for her so crazily today, but the answer was not clear.

He loved her, but there were many invisible and innumerable barriers between them.

When they arrived at the villa, James and Winnie hadn't slept. James had planned to go with Jacob to look for Sara, but Jacob didn't agree.

James was old and had to take care of the company. He shouldn't have been worried about these things.

James looked at the stunned Sara, and an ominous premonition first appeared in his mind. Before he could think more, there was a trace of gloom in his eyes.

"What's wrong, Jacob? What happened to Sara?" A hint of coldness flashed through James's eyes. He had been working for so many years, but no one dared to provoke his rage before.

"Everything's okay, Uncle James. She was just frightened. I'll call the family doctor tomorrow morning to check on her. Let her rest for a few days first..." There was an indescribable sadness in Jacob's eyes. He always felt that his mistake led to this situation.

Maybe, Sara was blaming him in her heart. But he could do nothing about it.

It was all his fault. Now, he just held her in his arms silently. Sara looked so fragile as if she would break into pieces as soon as he touched her, which made him feel sorry for her.

Winnie didn't sleep either, but she couldn't get in the conversation at this moment. But everyone knew that something serious had happened, so no one made a sound.

Sara had been absent-minded for a long time. Even Dora lowered its head as if it knew something had happened.

They watched Jacob carry Sara upstairs, but her dull eyes made them feel sorry for her.

Jacob walked lightly, as if he had used up all his tenderness at this moment. In his eyes, Sara had already become a frightened deer. He felt sorry for her, but he didn't know what to do.

Perhaps only time could erase the deep wound, or only when he waited for long enough could she open her heart again.

But he was afraid that it was too late.

He was afraid that everything would be in vain. Was Sara's heart completely shattered by the reality? He just forgot to remind her one more sentence. He had only been sitting on the sofa for five minutes. He didn't expect such a thing to happen.

It turned out that not everyone had the ability to adapt to the changing life.

Putting Sara gently on the bed, Jacob's cold eyes showed his heartache.

"Are you going to bed? I don't want your father to worry about you, so I can't send you home now. You can stay here for the time being. Don't worry. It's okay. And everything will be okay in the future." The rare tenderness made Jacob look different from usual under the light.

But all these were useless, no matter what. Sara still felt cold. Even if she was wrapped in the quilt and the room was full of warm air.

But she was still shivering. She had already sobered up a lot, but the feeling of fear in her heart did not change at all.

His heart was still trembling with fear. No word was not enough to describe her mood at the moment.

She wanted to cry, but she couldn't make any sound. Did she lose her voice?

Sara moved her mouth. She was thirsty, but she couldn't speak any word. She just murmured painfully.

Jacob was shocked. "What's wrong with you, Sara? What do you want?"

Sara pointed at her throat. Jacob seemed to understand something. He quickly got a glass of water and handed it to her.

After drinking the water, Sara felt much better. Wrapped in the quilt, she fell asleep without saying anything.

Jacob was worried about her, so he waited by the bed for the whole night.

The long night finally came to an end, and the neon lights on the street gradually dimmed.

It was not until the sky turned white that Jacob fell asleep. He had been lying next to Sara all the time. It was very cold but he didn't go on the bed.

He just stayed with her quietly. He had never thought of hurting her, but he always inadvertently made her suffer.

The night was dim. Seeing that Sara fell asleep peacefully, Jacob finally calmed down.

She was finally tired and didn't want to make trouble.

Maybe he was wrong from the very beginning. He had been too aloof and had thought that he had seen through everything.

He had ignored her sincerity and hadn't treated her as a human being.

Now, he would never leave her again.

Even if she refused, even if she didn't need him anymore, he had to stay by her side.

Sara slept soundly, as if she knew that Jacob was here with her.

When she woke up in the morning, she moved her hand. The wound was still painful.

She looked up at the familiar room. She had thought about coming back here, but she didn't expect to come back in this way.

It was like a farce. Sara knew what would have happened to her if it weren't for Jacob.

Maybe it was the darkness, the unbearable past, or the sadness that she couldn't hug Jacob anymore.

Anyway, nothing of these happened. Jacob saved everything.

Sara tried to say something but failed.

She really lost her voice. In a panic, Sara scratched the bed sheet and woke up Jacob who was lying on the side.

Jacob didn't sleep well and had been in light sleep. Sara didn't expect him to wake up so soon.

"Are you feeling better?" Jacob asked with concern. He didn't know what to say.

Without saying anything, Sara pointed at her throat.

"Do you want to drink water again?" Confused, Jacob stood up and was about to get some water.

However, Sara grabbed his hand, and the two of them were in a stalemate.

'She grabs my hand voluntarily. She doesn't dislike me.'

Jacob looked back in surprise and didn't know what happened to Sara.

Sara continued to point at her throat. She said something but there's no sound.

Jacob suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem. Sara wanted to say something, but she couldn't.

Jacob stood up and called the family doctor at once. Although he looked very calm, no one knew that his palms were sweating with nervousness.

'Was she drugged?' Jacob didn't dare to imagine the consequences.

The doctor came soon. Half sitting and half lying on the bed, Sara listened to the doctor's description indifferently.

"Mrs. Sara was just frightened and it was too cold, so she lost her voice." The family doctor cupped his hands.

Standing in front of Jacob, he tried her best to be calm.

"When will she recover?" Anxiety flashed through Jacob's long and narrow eyes.

Fortunately, Sara was fine... Otherwise, he couldn't forgive himself.

Sara found herself a little hungry. After what happened yesterday, her relationship with Jacob eased a little.

If he didn't care about her, he wouldn't have gone out to look for her in person.
