Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 12

Nicole's ears were sensitive parts. Being teased like this in public, she flushed quickly.

Jacob was amused by her reaction. He did once again.

"Ahem."

The woman covered her mouth and coughed.

Jacob stopped and looked up at her.

"I thought you didn't have dinner. You can eat now."

He said and looked at her with casual eyes.

The woman was distracted for a moment, but soon she put on a gentle smile again and began to have dinner.

Even though Jacob was born and raised in a rich family and had seen many ladies, he could not find any mistakes from her elegance and courtesy.

Therefore, this one was even much more difficult to deal with.

"Jacob, I heard from Uncle Jack that you have bought the land in the west of the city. Are you going to develop it by yourself or..."

The woman paused and looked at Nicole.

"Sorry, I forgot there was an outsider here."

It sounded like an easy sentence, but in fact, it had already given Nicole a head-on blow.

But this didn't work for Nicole at all. She had no passion to think about the relationship between Jacob and this women. Her only thought was how her mother was in the operating room and when she could go back to the hospital.

So actually she didn't catch the deep meaning from the woman.

"It's Okay. It doesn't matter that she knows."

Jacob said abruptly.

The woman didn't expect that Jacob would defend this girl in his arm. She looked at him unbelievably.

In the rich and powerful family like them, it was not strange that there was a butterfly around them. Everyone knew that they were just playing around, so they didn't care much about it.

But at the same time, they kept all the confidential information from the outsiders.

But it was obvious that Jacob didn't take precautions against this butterfly.

'Was it because he trusted her or because he spoiled her too much?'

She looked at the girl in Jacob's arms again. She had a bad feeling that this girl would be a stumbling block on her way to being Jacob's wife in Gu family.

The woman shrugged her shoulders and smiled grieved in her heart. She no longer said anything and focused on her meal.

At the end of the meal, Jacob gave a hint to Nicole to have some as well, and waved his hand to indicate that he was full.

Nicole put down the tableware, looked at Jacob eagerly and said in a voice that could only be heard by them, "you are full, can I go back now?"

Jacob glanced at the opposite and put his hand on the back of Nicole's head to force her to lean against his chest.

"We just came out for a while, and you got tired again,"

His voice was full of affection and sweetness.

Nicole held her breath and didn't dare to make a sound. She was afraid that she might have done something wrong and Jacob would change his mind.

"Well, stop being flirtatious. I'll drive you home."

Jacob said himself, put his arm around Nicole and stood up.

Hearing this, Nicole looked at Jacob, and there was a glimmer of joy in her eyes.

"Jacob..."

Obviously, the woman didn't expect Jacob would leave her alone here. She tried to keep him.

Jacob pretended to feel helpless. He patted on Nicole's head and said, "I have to go, Daisy. My little girl is tired."

"……"

Daisy Yu couldn't stay calm anymore and watched Jacob leaving with the girl in his arms. Her fork was almost twisted.

He flirted with the girl in front of her, now even left her alone for that girl.

Daisy stared at where Nicole had sit, eyes full of disdain.

It seemed that Jacob was too bold and spoiled that girl. She even dared to urge Jacob to leave right in front of her.

She looked down upon her!

——

"I'll take a taxi,"

"No, I'll drive you there."

After they walked out of the restaurant, Jacob pulled Nicole who was about to leave and got in his car.

Nicole took out her cell phone and called Jim immediately, as she had no time to pay attention to Jacob.
