Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 178

Jacob took a step forward, only two meters away from the woman. He frowned and did not answer the woman's question.

"Stay away from me! If you come any closer, I'll jump off!" The woman shouted and took a look at downstairs. There were already many people gathered around. Jacob was shocked and stopped.

"Calm down! The accident is unavoidable. I'm sorry. But the dead can't be revived. I hope you can calm down." Jacob said in a hoarse voice, as if it was because he was nervous.

"That's enough. You just want us to calm down. How can I calm down? I can't calm down!" The woman moved out a bit again.

Jacob was a little flustered, but he still remained calm. If she really jumped off the building today, this matter would be more and more serious and it would be difficult to end it.

At this time, several policemen rushed out of the stairwell. One of them glanced at Jacob and began to persuade the woman, "Mrs., I hope you can calm down. You only can live once."

The woman cast a cold glance at the policeman. She used to live in a decent way and thought that even if life was cruel to her, there was still something worth remembering.

Now, she had nothing. She was not reluctant to leave this world. There was nothing to be afraid of if a person was not even afraid of death.

"Huh. Do you think you can frighten me with so many people here?" The woman said sarcastically.

"All of you leave now. I don't want to see you." The woman shouted. In the past, she was like an invisible person in the city. No one cared about her every day. But today, because of interests, they had to care about her.

"Do you know what life means?" Jacob suddenly opened his mouth. The lobby manager next to him felt a chill on his back. He had never heard such a cold voice from the CEO.

"Humph, what do you think life means? Do you think it's a big deal that you are born in a rich family? Do you think it worth boost your good life?" The woman looked at Jacob with contempt. It was the first time that she had mocked him so openly.

There's pain in everyone's life. At this moment, the woman stabbed the person in front of her with her sharp voice. She thought that only in this way could she get satisfied.

However, she felt more and more grieved. Why should she blame another man for her own misfortune? But who should she blame for her misfortune?

The woman's mind was in a mess for a moment. The will to die was so strong, but the will to live was not decreased at all.

If death could solve the problem, she would have died thousands of times. Unfortunately, death was only an end, not a solution.

"Do you think a person's misfortune is because of poverty? Can money buy happiness, health or everything?" Jacob asked indifferently. If he could buy it, why did he still have nothing.

"You!" The woman rolled her eyes at Jacob, but her heart was touched.

"You have never experienced death. So you are looking forward to it?" Jacob continued to sneer at her. It seemed that the woman's attention had successfully been attracted by him.

The police next to her was moving forward slowly. They might be able to rush up and take the woman down soon.

"Shut up. Do you think you can hide your fear by being so superior? You are afraid that my death will bring loss to the company. You are afraid that I will die and the scene will be out of control. You are afraid that..." The more she said, the more excited she became. A smile appeared on her face.

"Yes, you are right." Jacob stood there, with a palm raised up in the air.

The lobby manager stood aside and looked at the woman. His heart was beating fast. The woman was right. If she died today, the company would face even more serious problems.

The woman didn't expect that Jacob would admit his fear directly, so she didn't know what to say.

The wind on the roof kept blowing. Her face had already become stiff, no, her whole body was stiff because of the wind. After a person died, his body became stiff after losing his temperature. Perhaps it was just like this.

"I want to have a talk with you, Jacob." The woman suddenly opened her mouth, and the police stopped. The lobby manager's eyes had never left the woman.

Death was only a matter of seconds, but the woman had a different idea.

Jacob's words aroused her interest. Money could not buy everything, but at least it could buy dignity.

"We have been talking all the time." Jacob touched the tip of his nose. The wind from the rooftop made his nose red. He might catch a cold, but it was not the right time to care about it.

"Let them go. I don't want to talk about it with so many people present. I'm not performing." The wind messed up the woman's hair, making it difficult to see her expression.

"But..." One of the policemen was confused. If no one was here, there would be no rescue. Even though there was an inflatable cushion downstairs, everyone knew that it was useless.

Not to mention the impact of the object's free fall, even if she jumped a little sideways, the result would be unimaginable.

"If you don't leave, I'll jump down now!" The woman's voice became agitated. The policemen looked at Jacob with mixed feelings. They had no idea what the woman was thinking. Did she want to die alone in front of Jacob so as to cast a shadow on him?

If that was the case, the end would be unimaginable.

The leading policeman patted gloomily on Jacob's shoulder. "Try your best. Don't embarrass yourself."

Jacob nodded and wrapped his coat tightly.

He felt very calm now. Not all deaths would make people moved. The woman in front of him was just making people scared.

Seeing that everyone had left, the woman was a little satisfied. She always thought that no one would hear her voice, but it turned out that everyone could understand her now. But it was in this way.

The woman lowered her eyes. The wind had been blowing for too long, and her stiff body was about to fall. Maybe it would be blown down in the next second. The woman sat down carefully with her back to the inside of the rooftop. She took a look at Jacob, who looked serious.

"Maybe you have never thought that you would talk to such a woman in this way one day, right?" The woman forced a stiff but playful smile.

There were complex emotions in Jacob's eyes. He just fixed his eyes on the woman in front of him. This woman was neither relative nor friend to him, but because of the trick of fate, the two met.

"You know what? There are many people like me in this city. No one cares about their happiness, anger and resentment. They keep in touch with the outside world just to satisfy their physical needs. They..."

The woman said sadly, lowering her head.

"May I come to your side? Don't worry. I won't do anything radical." Jacob said calmly, without any fluctuation in his heart. His eyes were as calm as water.

The woman nodded. She observed for a long time and found that Jacob was not as indifferent as she thought. Instead, he looked calm.
