Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 275

By the time they finished the hot pot, most of the people in the restaurant had left. Sara, Jacob, Noah, and Bess already had drunk three bottles of juice. Sara was holding the glass of juice in her hand, wanting to have another sip of it before she left the place.

However, Jacob stood up and wrapped his arms around her. "How are you doing, my darling?"

Bess and Noah smiled at each other. "You two have been together a long time, and yet you, can't keep your hands off each other!" Bess exclaimed.

Jacob and Sara gave her a smile. Neither of them cared about what Bess thought of their love, so they did not take her words to their heart.

"This restaurant has amazing food, you can bring us here anytime!" Sara said in a serious tone, but she was grinning like a child. It was a pleasant day that made her happy.

"That's great!" Jacob answered before he walked out of the restaurant, holding Sara's waist.

Bess and Noah were whispering in each other's ear, giggling.

"What are you two laughing at?" Jacob asked with a puzzled expression.

"We're laughing at you because Sara has got you wrapped around her finger now!" Saying that, Noah burst into laughter, but then, he became serious again, afraid that Jacob might get offended.

"She doesn't have me wrapped around her finger, we just respect each other. You get it, don't you, Noah? I am sure you understand that better than I do." Jacob hugged Sara even tighter.

"Yeah, I understand quite well," Noah replied. He then looked at Bess with a smile, who smiled back at him.

The four of them slowly walked out of the restaurant and came to their cars.

"Are you guys going home?" Noah asked as he looked at the sky, which was as dark as a black blanket.

"No, we have something else that we need to do. What about you two?" Jacob asked, placing his hands on Sara's shoulders. He did not want move even one step away from her.

"Bess is tired, so we're going home." Saying that, Noah opened the car door for Bess. Bess sat in the car and waved goodbye to Jacob and Sara.

They watched Noah's car disappear around the corner. "Where are we going?" Sara asked all of a sudden, looking at Jacob.

"I am going to show you something good," Jacob replied with a mysterious smile.

"And what is that?" Sara asked in confusion. Jacob's mysterious smile had piqued her interest.

"You'll know what it is once we get there." Jacob started the car, focusing on the road ahead of them.

The one who wins in love would smile till the end. And the harder one loves someone, the harder it is for them to joke to that person. It is torturous, yet pleasant.

Jacob glanced at Sara. At times, he would wish that they were alone, but once he got to be alone with her, he would not express his true feelings for her.

Sara stared at Jacob and blurted out, "I think I am dreaming. I don't know how we got back together again. I always thought that I had lost you forever."

Shocked by her words, Jacob tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

"Do you know that there is a kind of bird that has no feet? It just flies around all its life until it dies," Jacob said, narrowing his eyes as though he was remembering something.

"And..." Sara asked, her bright eyes gleaming in the dark like gemstones.

"I was like that bird. I was searching for something all my life, when it has been right in front of me. I thought that I was destined for something else, and I ignored those around me. I no longer worry about my future, because you are my future,"

Jacob said softly and turned to look at her with a gaze that could melt her heart.

About a moment later, Sara smiled shyly and said, "That's a lot to take in..."

She blushed deep red. Although it was dark, Jacob could imagine how cute she must be looking.

Jacob raced, splashing mud all over his car, but it was not visible in the dark.

After a while, they arrived at a villa in the suburban area. The house looked just as dark as the night.

"What's the matter?" Sara asked in confusion, looking at Jacob, and then, at the villa in front of them as she wondered what he was about to do.

"Come on, let's go inside." Jacob looked at Sara excitedly. He had bought the villa for her. However, Sara had no idea about it.

She followed him out of the car, but once they reached the villa's entrance, she saw that she could not enter if her fingerprints had not been entered in the security system.

"Put your hand on the sensor," Jacob whispered in her ear and gave her a nod of approval.

"Are you serious?" Sara asked in confusion as she placed her palm on the sensor.

"Access granted. Please come in, Miss Sara." An automated voice response came from the door.

"That's terrific! It can answer me, and it knows my name!" Sara said in surprise and turned to Jacob, who hugged her tightly.

He gently kissed her on the lips before he took her inside the villa. The door automatically closed behind them.

Sara's eyes went wide in surprise as she looked into his eyes and gently pushed him.

"I probably have bad breath from the hot pot we ate." Sara blushed, arousing his interest. She cast a shy glance at him and felt butterflies in her stomach.

Without saying a word, Jacob got close to her, his face just a few centimeters away from hers. He did not care if she had bad breath. Sara gasped in shock when he lifted her off the ground, carrying her in his arms.

Jacob stomped his way to the bedroom on the first floor. Thinking of what was about to happen, Sara could not help but blush.

Jacob entered the room, holding Sara in his arms. He turned on the lights and closed the door behind them. Instead of putting Sara down, he held her even tighter in his arms.

Feeling shy, Sara covered her face with her hands until she felt her back touch the soft bed.

The room was so beautifully decorated and looked romantic.

After a while, Sara sat up and looked around. The walls were covered with her photos, some of which she did not even know that he had captured.

Sara was speechless, admiring the photos in front of her.

Although it was spring, she felt cold, so she pulled up the blanket and wrapped it around her body.

"Where are we?" Sara asked, still eyeing the photos on the wall. Her life in the past four years had been beautifully depicted on the wall, using her pictures.

"Since someone you don't like had stayed in the house that we used to live in, I bought us a new home." Jacob looked into Sara's eyes lovingly.

"How did you get these photos?" Sara asked as she touched one of the framed photos. Most of the pictures were just of her, but there were some where they were together.

"What's up?" Jacob asked, looking at her like she was a doll that he was afraid to touch for he feared that he would dirty it.

"When did you take these photos?" Sara, who was lying next to Jacob reached out to touch another picture.

Jacob pulled Sara down to the bed and made her lie down.

"I realized that my feelings for you started way before I knew about it. If not, why would I have taken so many pictures of us? Why would I have felt jealous when you met other men?"

The moment he said those words, Sara placed her finger over his lips, asking him to stop. Although it was true that those things had happened, it was all in the past now.

"This is our second chance. I only want you and I will not choose anyone else, regardless of how good they are. I have given you my heart and my soul. No one else can have it now."

Jacob gently lifted Sara's hand. They could finally start a new life, and he did not want to be impatient like before.
