Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 145

Compared with Bevis, Jacob was more dignified.

As soon as she saw Jacob, Nicole stopped smiling and lowered her head shyly.

"…… Get dressed up. Let's go out for dinner. "

"…… Okay. "

Jacob left the room without hesitation. They didn't heave a sigh of relief until the door was closed again.

Squinting her eyes at Nicole, Consuela ridiculed, "you are indeed a coward in front of him."

Nicole couldn't refute this fact. She gave a bitter smile and continued to wipe the tears on her face.

"It's not your fault. He looks fierce usually." Consuela had only seen Jacob a few times, but she had never seen him in nice face or easy-going way. Every time she thought of him, she shivered.

"Actually, he is a nice guy. But it was only a few years ago..." Nicole didn't want to mention the past again. She stopped and shook her head. "Forget it. Let's get ready quickly. Don't let them wait too long."

Half an hour later, they met in the corridor and left the hotel together.

When they got into the car, Consuela and Nicole were sitting in the back of the car, and Bevis was in the driver's seat, while Jacob was in the passenger's seat.

"What are we going to eat?" Consuela gossiped with Nicole.

"I don't know. Let them lead the way."

Nicole never asked these questions when she went out for dinner with others. She followed the crowd and was not picky at all.

Since Jacob was with them, Consuela didn't dare to ask Bevis about that. She sat silently, just like Nicole.

About ten minutes later, they arrived at the gate of a food city.

"Let's go."

After parking the car, Jacob got off first.

Consuela couldn't believe her eyes when she saw this. "How could he eat here?" she asked

"It seems fine. What's wrong?"

"He's the master of Gu Family. How could he come to such a poor place to eat?" Consuela exclaimed, stamping her feet

Hearing this, Nicole burst into laughter. "Mr. Jacob is also a human being, why can't he come here and eat? Don't be so surprised, let's follow him quickly."

"…… I don't think so. "

Nicole laughed. "It's impractical to eat the abalones! And I know that Jacob is just an ordinary boy, who was my classmate in high school! Why are you so surprised?"

Consuela still couldn't believe it, "But I didn't know he was Mr. Jacob in high school. Besides, he was a little boy then. Now he is running several big companies. It's too... too close to normal life. "

Nicole was more composed than Consuela.

After all, she had known Jacob for a long time and knew him well. In fact, Mr. Jacob was just as handsome and capable as any other man except the name under Gu family.

However, it wasn't Consuela's fault. In fact, she was always in awe of Jacob. Now, the boy always wore a poker face and seldom smiled. It was easy to think that he was not easy-going and made people scare of him.

"I've heard that the ancestors of this restaurant were emperor's mother, Ci Xi's chefs, weren't they?"

They entered a soup dumpling shop and sat down. Looking around, Bevis asked Jacob curiously.

Jacob answered casually, "Maybe. I didn't pay much attention to it. But this soup dumpling is very delicious. It ranks in the top three among all what I've tried."

Actually, Jacob had been to many cities before, and he had only been to the famous foods and famous restaurants in every city. Based on this, the food there was surely very delicious.

"Then we should try." Hearing this, Nicole immediately became a little greedy. She picked up the menu, and as soon as she saw it, she gasped.

A portion of soup dumplings cost 1, 88 dollars.

Nicole asked to Jacob, "how many for each portion?"

"Four." Jacob answered without hesitation.

"……" Nicole was shocked again and criticized herself in mind that a soup dumpling cost nearly 50. How could it not taste good.

Instead of eating steamed stuffed buns, she was eating money.

"Six portions of soup dumplings and some cold dishes, please serve each..."

Before Nicole could finish her complaint, Jacob had started to order. She almost couldn't help and pull him.

It was too expensive to order so many soup dumplings.

Squinting at Nicole, Consuela leaned over and whispered in her ear, "I wasn't able to see through our Mr. Jacob just now. Mr. Jacob wasn't really so close..."

Unable to refute the irony, Nicole could only smile helplessly.

After ordering, Jacob took out his vibrating cell phone. He glanced at it and put it back into his pocket.

Bevis was a little worried, but he knew what kind of person Jacob was. He said jokingly, "your phone has been ringing all the way. What's going on? Did you run away with us?"

Jacob rolled his eyes at Bevis and said, "yes, this is your last dinner. Have your dinner."

"Stop it!" Bevis punched Jacob in the chest to stop him from talking.

It was not until at night that Bevis got a call from Frank and got to know what had happened, and why Jacob suddenly left today.

Frank asked in a loud voice to Bevis, "you two are so heartless! Why didn't you ask me to come with you? Do you take me as your brother?"

Bevis explained, "I left in a hurry. If I hadn't called him, he wouldn't have taken me with him."

"I don't care. You are just too annoying. Tell me where you are. I'll fly there right now. "

Holding the phone, Bevis turned around and told Jacob the news that Frank was coming

Jacob's face suddenly darkened. He shouted angrily, "what is he coming here for? Give those who wanted to find me some clues so that they could track me down?"

"You are right..."

Bevis told what Jacob said to Frank. Frank hung up angrily.

Seeing that the phone was hung up, Jacob slowly added, "I don't want Frank to stir up trouble for me, because he is still with Sabina now."

In the past few days, Bevis had understood what was going on. Now he nodded to show his understanding.

Jacob had taken Nicole with him. If Frank had come with that woman, Sabina, how could they spend the days.

In that case, Sabina was a troublemaker, and Nicole wasn't a person who would play according to circumstances. If they were in the same game, even if Sabina tried to stoop to the low, she would definitely fall into discord.

It seemed that Jacob cared about Nicole very much.

As Bevis thought of this, he squinted at Jacob.
