Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 136

"Hi."

Noticing that Jacob was looking at her, Sabina winked at him flirtatiously.

Seeing this, Frank immediately made fun of Jacob and asked, "what's wrong with you, Jacob? Are you interested in the woman in my arms?"

His words showed no respect for Sabina. Bevis couldn't help glancing at her.

But she didn't seem to care about that. Sabina sat on Frank's lap intimately, smiling charmingly.

However, that was not a temptation for Jacob, who never flirted with women and had a good private life.

He looked away, picked up the glass and took a small sip. Looking at the direction of the dancing floor indifferently, he said, "no, I'm not interested in her."

The smile on Sabina's face disappeared, and her alluring pose turned stiff.

"You are so..."

His frank words made Bevis laugh. With a pout, he lowered his head and burst into laughter.

"Humph!" Frank retorted, pouting. "I know why you care so little about women outside. There is someone in your heart..."

But before he could finish his words, he noticed that Jacob's expression changed.

All the three of them knew who the woman mentioned was, but they didn't dare to say it out loud.

After all, the relationship between Jacob and Nicole was not as sweet as before when they were in high school. And Jacob's mind became unpredictable.

"Jacob..."

Taking notice of the tense atmosphere, Bevis immediately came to mediate the quarrel. "Well, come on, let's have a drink. Since Jacob has sacrificed his working time to accompany us, we should have a good relax."

"Yes, let's drink."

Frank stuck out his tongue and immediately took up the wine glass and drank it up.

Fortunately, they were all friends, so Jacob didn't care about it. They ignored this unpleasant topic and continued to drink and chat.

Sabina was good at gauging people's mind. Although she didn't show any expression on her face, she kept that sentence in mind.

She thought it would be much easier to win Jacob's heart if she could figure out what kind of person the 'someone' was.

After all, it was easy to find out men's likes and dislikes.

It seemed that her plan was going to work, but she didn't expect that things would go wrong this time.

After all, Jacob was not some ordinary man she had known, and this time, she couldn't imitate the woman because the woman referred to Nicole.

The sweet time they spent together couldn't be copied and replaced

---

After dinner, Nicole curled up on the sofa, chatting with Alex on the phone in her hands. The latter dragged her into a training group, where there were many new employees that had just been signed up by the company. They were very excited in the group, chatting so excitedly.

"Let's friend each other and recommend each other."

"Yes, let's do it now."

However, Nicole was not so excited. She was a cautious and slow type, either in reality or on the Internet. She went into the group for half an hour. Except for greeting, she was mainly diving.

But it was interesting to see these people chatting.

Nicole had never heard of it before, so she didn't know that there were so many popular online words, so many interesting tricks and so many smiling emojis.

"Miss Nicole, what makes you so happy?" Lily, who was cleaning the room, couldn't help asking.

"Look at this, Lily." then Nicole clicked on the photo and showed it to Lily. It was a little cat lying on the ground, with an expression of grievance. And the words on the picture added: they were childish, pitiful and helpless.

Lily frowned and asked, "what's wrong?"

"It's so adorable!"

"Adorable? It's just a cat, isn't it? "

Nicole explained, "the cat's expression is very funny."

Heaving a sigh, Lily continued, "I'm too old to understand your young people's preferences."

"No, you are not old."

Nicole continued to chat in the group. While she was enjoying the chat, her cell phone rang. The caller ID was an unknown number.

Who was it?

Nicole hesitated for a while, but didn't answer it. It sounded like it would not give up. Nicole thought for a while and finally picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Nicole, you should help me!"

On the other side of the line, she heard Selina crying and begging.

Nicole hadn't heard this voice for a long time, and she was stunned before she realized who it was.

"…… What's wrong? "

Although Nicole didn't want to be associated with Selina any more, she couldn't be hardhearted enough to hang up the phone directly, especially at this time, while she seemed to be on the verge of breakdown.

After hearing Nicole's question, Selina began to tell her story in details.

The story was just like the soap opera about 8 pm.

It turned out that after Sabina had taken away that house, she started to look for Sabina daughter everywhere. She chased after her and tried her best to kill her, which had brought the old woman's fighting power to the most extent.

But Sabina was a smart woman. She asked for help and beat Selina up in an alley where it was dark and there was no monitor. So she had no choice but to call the police.

Now that Selina was continuously at a disadvantage, she couldn't take it. But she couldn't compete with Sabina in this aspect, so she gave a lot of leaflets about what had happened to Sabina on the street. She had made up her mind to give her a hard time.

This time, Sabina was even more aggressive. She had warned Selina that if she dared to badger with her again, she would send someone to prison to give Austin a lesson.

That was absolutely a ferocious act for Selina.

She was an old woman and was used to being in trouble, so she wasn't afraid of what was going to happen to her. However, she couldn't leave Austin alone, because he was her beloved son.

At the thought of this, she was scared. She didn't dare to fight against Sabina face to face.

She had no choice but to turn to Nicole for help.

After all, she really wanted to get back to that house. After selling it, she could even pay the bail for Austin.

Nicole took a deep breath and said to her, "I can't help you with that."

"Aren't you good friends? Please persuade her. I beg you. Please help me find a way to help me. I'm really going to be forced to death by Sally. If Austin is not in the room, I don't want to live."

She had never seen Selina behave so humbly.

From the moment she married into the Liang clan, she had always been arrogant, bossy, domineering and bossy.

But within a year, she was different.

"Let me say it again. I'm not Sabina's friend anymore. We haven't been friends since she cheated on me. And I haven't been in touch with her either. So I can't speak for you. You'd better look for your daughter. You'd better think of a way to get rid of her. As an outsider, I can't help you."

Nicole was kind enough to say this calmly.

However, this didn't work for Selina. When she heard that Nicole didn't want to help her, she kicked up a row. "Nicole, why are you so heartless? After all, Austin is your boyfriend. Even if he did something wrong, it is a thing of the past. Why are you so mean to haggle over it and don't let it go. Now he is suffering there. Why are you so heartless? What should I do? "

Hearing what he said, Nicole almost gushed out blood.

She thought that Selina had learned a lesson and knew to restrain herself, but it turned out that she still took it for granted and could not distinguish right from wrong.

She was even more annoying than the evil mother-in-law in dramas.

Nicole burst into laughter. She now realized that dramas came from life.
