Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 123

"I didn't expect that the evildoer in the past would put on a suit and start business seriously."

Bevis walked around Jacob's office and said.

Jacob smiled and didn't explain anything.

Indeed, even he himself did not expect that he would take over his father's company and became a businessman.

It was because of the failed love and the heartbroken betrayal that he had majored in business and become the young master of the Gu family, whom the world admired so much.

It was Nicole who made him understand that the so-called "devil" could not protect his own love.

Power was the most important thing for him.

"What I like is your young master's identity."

It was this sentence that changed him thoroughly.

Jacob felt the pain in his heart and stopped in time. He gently shook the wine glass in his hand and looked at Bevis, "not everyone is as heartless as you are now."

Bevis laughed and sat down opposite to Jacob. "I'm good. It's simple, pure. What I do is just to make myself happy. Those that can't make me happy will be obliterated."

"Ha ha, you are still an animal."

Jacob raised his glass, and the two glasses collided in the air, creating a crisp sound. The strange combination did not make people feel uncomfortable, but rather very harmonious.

Just like Consuela and Nicole, Jacob and Bevis were also classmates and good friends since senior high school.

Back in high school, Bevis was always frivolous, but unlike others, he was serious. No matter who he talked to, he was always friendly.

The reason why he could be described as "dandiacal" was that he had such an inner personality, which was that he was cynical and didn't care about anything else. He appeared to be good behaved on the surface, but in fact, after you got along well with him, you would find that it was very difficult for others to get into his heart.

In other words, there was no such kind of things as his heart.

A second ago, he was enjoying food and drink with his beautiful girlfriend, with a brilliant smile, and the next second, he might break up with her. Facing the astonishment and disbelief of his girlfriend, he could still have an innocent smile on his face.

He would spend a lot of money to buy a girl's smile only because the girl was happy and he would leave when the girl was crying. It was just because the girl's cry made him unhappy.

Happiness and unhappiness was his standard to measure things and people. It was so simple and crude, leaving everything else behind.

Therefore, when Jacob said "animal", he didn't feel sorry for him at all.

Bearing Jacob's "high praise" in mind, Bevis shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "look at yourself. You are not an animal. That's why you have lived such a bitter life. It's so boring."

The word "bitter" made Jacob smile. Just thinking about it, indeed, the relationship with Nicole, was accompanied by bitterness.

But so what? He was willing to taste the bitterness.

"When I came here, I heard that you have a lot of women around you, and you are very romantic. But today when I saw you so depressed, I didn't see any of them."

Jacob smiled bitterly and said, "you have heard a lot."

"Of course!" Bevis changed a sitting posture and leaned against the sofa, "you are now the famous young master Gu, a rich single man. Many ladies of rich families are paying close attention to you."

At the mention of it, Jacob couldn't help thinking of Daisy which made him a little upset.

His father, David Gu, came back from abroad. His driver told him that during these days, Daisy went to the Gu family's main house over and over again and stayed there all afternoon.

It seemed that David would interfere in his marriage again.

The thought of it gave Jacob a headache.

He sighed in his mind, looked at Bevis and asked, "what about you? Is there anyone by your side now?"

Raising his eyebrows exaggeratedly, Bevis said, "are you kidding? I have never been short of girls by my side. There are so many girls who want to take care of me."

"…… You bastard! "

"Hey, you're always in sensual news. Do you have any stand to say that I'm a bastard? If I were a bastard, so do you."

Jacob smiled and didn't deny it.

Actually, he wasn't as shameless as Bevis, but he didn't have to explain that.

After all, the so-called gossips were made by him to deceive people.

They talked about their career and situation for a while. Then Jacob got to know that Bevis was now a designer. He had his own freedom and was relaxed at work. He could enjoy himself as he liked.

They used to be good friends. So they became more emotional in the end.

With a smile on his face, Bevis stared at Jacob and said, "The past is the past. Have you let it go?"

As his good friend, Bevis knew that Jacob had a deep obsession with Nicole.

Because of her, Jacob was once so depressed and even wanted to commit suicide.

That's why he asked.

Jacob was not in a hurry to answer his question. He remembered that Nicole was lying in his arms last night. Thinking of how close they were with each other during this period, Jacob smiled and said in a contemptuous voice, "it doesn't matter if I can't let it go. I have everything now and I can keep people I want in the palm of my hand."

Bevis's pupils shrank slightly. He was not afraid, but worried and distressed.

Because he knew that only those who had completely gone through despair would not believe in human heart anymore and say such words.

However, he couldn't say anything to comfort him.

After all, he hadn't let it go since his father passed away. He had no right to give advice to others.

"Nicole, it's lucky that your dress is not so good today, otherwise, I will really be defeated by you."

Remarked Consuela with a wicked smile as their haircut was done.

Nicole didn't retort. In order not to arouse Consuela's suspicion, she didn't wear the clothes that Jacob had bought for her. The clothes she was wearing now were all bought by herself, and the prices of those clothes were cheap, old and the tastes of them couldn't be compared with that of Consuela.

"You look gorgeous today." Nicole praised Consuela.

Consuela proudly swirled in a circle, as if she was a princess. "Of course. I'll let Bevis know that I've changed a lot. I'm becoming more and more beautiful."

"Haha Yes. Let him to have a look. He'll regret that he was so blind that he didn't cherish the beauty in front of him. "

"Yes!" Consuela curled her lips and held Nicole's arm. "Let's go to have a meal first. After that, we will make a grand entry!"
