Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 142

Seeing David leave, Jacob sat in a daze for more than ten minutes. He didn't come back himself until his mother called him.

Just now, his father had clearly sensed that there was something more with his words, but why didn't he listen to his explanation and stopped blaming him?

"I don't believe my son is a sentimental man,"

With that, his father stood up and left.

what did he mean?

What was he talking about?

Was he referring to Nicole?

"Jacob, what are you looking at?"

Hearing his mother's concern, Jacob came back to his senses. "Oh, nothing. Mom, you came downstairs."

"Well, how was your talk with your father?"

In fact, Albertan didn't get involved in the conversation. Therefore, she had no idea of Jacob's resistance and conditions.

In the Albertan's opinion, even if her son was smart, he could not shake her husband's authority.

Therefore, she pretended to be regretful and sighed. She touched Jacob's shoulder and comforted him, "I know you don't want to marry Daisy, but there are some things that are destined to happen and we can't solve them ourselves. You can't change your father's mind. "

"Mom, I won't marry Daisy." Jacob didn't follow his mother's words and talked back.

Just then, the housekeeper of the main house came in. He walked straight to Jacob, bowed a little and respectfully said, "Mr. Jacob, Mr. David asked you to leave the main house immediately."

Jacob narrowed his eyes. He knew that his father had agreed with his proposal.

"What?" Shocked, Albertan stood up immediately and looked at the old housekeeper in disbelief.

"Mom, I'm fine. You don't need to worry about me." Jacob comforted Albertan and turned to the housekeeper, "I'm leaving now. Tell my father that I will give the shares and operation of those companies to him as soon as possible."

"Yes." the housekeeper nodded.

Albertan was panicked. She grabbed Jacob's arm and asked anxiously, "what are you doing? Did you quarrel with your father?"

Jacob took a deep breath and said solemnly in his mother's worried eyes, "Mom, I didn't agree on the marriage with Daisy, so Dad..."

"So he wants to kick you out?" Albertan grabbed Jacob's arm and said, "you know your father has a bad temper. Why did you piss him off? Just a wedding. Why can't you agree? "

Jacob knew that Daisy had done a good job these days. And she had been deeply touched by his mother. At present, his mother wanted him to get married, so he didn't want to explain more. He insisted, "I don't want to get married. Especially I don't want to be forced to get married."

Albertan was exasperated at Jacob's failure to live up to her expectations. "Even if your father kicks you out, it doesn't matter?"

"I certainly don't want to be expelled, but mom, if I stay to face the marriage I don't want, I'd rather leave."

"You..."

"Mom, I'm sorry." Jacob tightly hugged Albertan and said, "when my father come around and agrees to let me come back, I'll come to see you again. I'm leaving."

He strode away before Albertan could react.

He believed that within half a day, the Yu family would receive the news, and Daisy would make trouble because of his refusal. So at this moment, the best way for him was to hide from the wind.

It was not until Jacob drove back to the villa that he knew that Nicole had gone home.

He checked his phone belatedly and saw the message from Nicole. He was afraid that something would go wrong, so his phone was muted, and he did not hear the message at all.

Staring at the text for a few seconds, he made a call.

The phone rang for a while before it was picked up.

Nicole deliberately lowered her voice, "Hello, what's wrong?"

"Get yourself ready. I'll ask the driver to pick you up."

"What? I'm at home. What's up? "

Hearing Nicole's voice, Jacob, who was restless, suddenly calmed down. He put on a light smile and said slowly, "yes, something happened, so you have to tidy up and get ready quickly. The driver is coming to pick you up."

Nicole reluctantly asked, "is it an emergency? Can I stay here?"

Hearing her words, Jacob laughed and said, "no, you must come. Be obedient."

"…… Fine. "

After hanging up the phone, Jacob ordered the driver to pick up Nicole, and went upstairs to pack his clothes and luggage.

When he just finished, his phone rang.

Jacob thought it was Nicole, so he answered the phone without checking who was calling him. He said like a spoiled child, "go ahead. What's wrong?"

"……"

No one responded. Jacob felt something was wrong. He took down the phone and saw that it was a call from Bevis.

"Hey, what do you want from me?"

"…… Jacob, I'm really scared by your tone. " The man from the other side of the line patted on his chest.

"Enough! Tell me now! What do you want from me?" Jacob shouted

Bevis said unhappily, "what? I'm so bored today that I want to have a drink with you. Do you have time?"

"Not really. I have something to deal with now." Jacob suddenly had an idea and said to Bevis, "would you like to go out with me for a few days. I will cover all the expenses."

"Really?" After thinking for a while, Bevis said briskly, "well, when shall we set off?"

Jacob zipped up the bag and smiled, "now."

"Now? !" "Are you kidding me? Now? At this moment? Go out for fun? "

"Yes. Is there any problem?"

"……"

Jacob glanced at the watch on his wrist, and said to Bevis, "see you in an hour at the airport. Send me your ID card number. I'll buy you an air ticket now."

"Well..." It sounded like Bevis was hesitating, but he didn't say yes immediately.

"Why? You don't want to go with me?" Jacob asked, frowning

The question was more like an order to provoke or ridicule. After a few words of embarrassment, Bevis had no choice but to answer, "Yes.. Wait, can I bring someone else? "

"Okay. I'm not alone anyway. Four people are just the perfect match."

After he hung up, Lily knocked on the door and came in. She asked a servant to carry the luggage of Jacob and put them in the car. She also told Jacob that the driver who went to pick up Nicole was about to arrive.

"Well, you just tell him. After picking her up, he can go straight to the airport."

"Yes, Mr. Jacob."

Jacob took off his suit and changed into a comfortable holiday leisure. He went downstairs leisurely and said to Lily before he left.

"If Daisy comes here later, you just tell her that you don't know where I am. If she dares to be rude with you, you don't have to be polite. Do you understand?"

"Got it, Mr. Jacob."

Since Jacob said so, Lily would not show mercy to Daisy anymore. Last time, everyone was afraid of being slapped by her. This time, with the support of Mr. Jacob, there was no need to be afraid of her.

After setting up Jacob, she ordered the driver to drive to the airport.

Jacob started to book the airport for Bevis. But as he read the message with ID information from Bevis, He frowned at the name of the other person beside Bevis's ID card number.

When did these two people get involved in each other?
