Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 149

Nicole couldn't believe her ears. How could Jacob break off the engagement and be expelled from Gu family?

'why does Jacob just say it's not a big deal?'?

Is that not a big deal?!

Bevis showed a helpless expression. "It's true. The Yu family are looking for Jacob to ask for a reason. Jacob wants to hide for a while."

Nicole stopped. She had to hold on to the light to support herself. She looked flustered and gasped to ask Bevis. "Why did Jacob do that? Doesn't he know the consequence of doing so? "

"Of course he knows." Bevis stared at Nicole blankly and said, "but I don't know why he decided to break off the engagement."

Why?

Nicole thought to herself, 'is it because of me?

impossible.

It was impossible for Jacob to make such a big decision for her. She was not that charming.

Then why did he do that?

As if having sensed her doubts, Bevis continued, "actually, you don't have to worry so much. Now that Jacob has chosen to do so, he must have his own ways to solve the problem. You should trust him."

Nicole certainly believed in Jacob, but...

"Even if he could find a way to deal with it, it may cause him a lot of trouble." Nicole murmured.

Bevis nodded, "of course. Everything will be smooth if he marries Daisy. If he doesn't, there will be many obstacles. Not to mention that Uncle David has already been furious and kicked him out of the Gu family."

"No, he can't do that. It's too dangerous. Bevis, You have a good relationship with him. You'd better persuade him not to be so impulsive. " Nicole clenched her fists.

"How should I do? Should I persuade him to marry Daisy?" Bevis asked Nicole, "are you serious? Do you really want him to marry Daisy?"

Nicole gritted her teeth and struggled with her eyes.

She had her own selfish motive. She certainly didn't want Jacob and Daisy to marry.

However...

She didn't have the right to decide when or how Jacob would get married or who. She had been bought by Jacob. She didn't think she had the right to decide his marriage?

When she heard that Jacob had a fiancee, she was heartbroken as if she was put on a frying pan.

However, when she heard that he had to pay such a heavy price to refuse the marriage, she was not happy at all. On the contrary, she felt more upset.

Compared to her happiness, she hoped that Jacob could be happy and smooth.

Nicole took a deep breath and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter that what I am thinking. I just think that Jacob is too rash in doing this. He will suffer a lot."

"If he's willing to take the pain himself, nobody else has the right to put in a word for him. What's more, how you know he's in a cold water, maybe Jacob is happy to do it."

Nicole frowned and asked Bevis in confusion, "what do you mean?"

"Nothing special." Bevis shook his souvenir in his hand which was for Consuela and said, "let's go back. They should have been waiting for a long time."

"Wait, Bevis, what did you mean by that? Do you mean that Jacob is enjoying with what happening? "

Without saying a word, Bevis strode forward.

Nicole was so uncomfortable without the answer that she hurried to catch Bevis. Then, she asked, "you're a man and you know Jacob well. Now, something has happened to him. Can you tell me what I can do for him?"

Finally Bevis stopped after hearing Nicole's words.

He gave Nicole a deep look and smiled, "you just need to be nice to him and trust him more."

"Nothing else?" Nicole was confused.

"Correct." Bevis nodded," Now Jacob is lack the sense of security. You know why he's like this. If you want to do something for him, you can just trust him and give him the sense of security. If he did something inappropriate, please forgive him. "

Bevis's words hit on Nicole's heart.

Yes. She knew exactly why Jacob lacked a sense of security.

Nicole lowered her eyes and said, "I see. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

They walked forward side by side. When they approached the starting point, Nicole stopped Bevis.

"Bevis!"

Bevis turned around and looked at Nicole. "What? What else do you want to know? "

"…… Nothing. "

Nicole shook her head and said with a smile, "let's hurry up. Consuela might be unable to wait for us."

"Yes."

Actually, Nicole thought that the reason why Bevis sent Consuela away and asked her to stay with him in the haunted house was because he wanted to tell her this matter. He wanted to tell her that she should be nicer to Jacob?

After all, it was Bevis that mentioned Jacob just now, so she wanted to know more.

But Nicole didn't ask. For one thing, she thought that Bevis didn't set a trap for her and she thought too much. For another, even if Bevis did it on purpose, he didn't do anything improper. He did it for the good of Jacob.

She didn't expect that Bevis became more and more unfathomable in the past few years,.

"You are back!"

Consuela shouted excitedly as she trotted towards them.

Nicole and Bevis looked at each other, and Bevis went up to Consuela.

"Here are your souvenirs and ice cream."

Consuela took the ice cream and souvenirs from Bevis and rushed to eat them. "Mmm, delicious!"

While eating, she said to Nicole, "Nicole, you should have it now, or it will melt."

"Okay, I'm eating right now."

"Come on. Show your souvenir to me. Let me see if we have the same... Why do I think yours is more beautiful? "

Nicole couldn't help but laugh. She leaned over to Consuela and whispered in her ear, "huh! Are you willing to exchange it with the one that Bevis had specially gotten for you?"

Certainly Consuela shook her head and snorted, "of course not!"

Standing next to them, Bevis didn't know what had happened. He looked curiously at Consuela and Nicole.

Nicole didn't explain but just kept giggling. Then Consuela feel embarrassed as Bevis watching them. She quickly grabbed Nicole's hand, ran towards Jacob and hid herself.

"…… You are such a coward in front of Bevis! " Nicole teased Consuela.

Glaring fiercely at Nicole, Consuela deliberately shouted to Jacob, "you're a coward in front of someone as well. How can you blame me for being so impolite?"

Nicole subconsciously looked at Jacob, who was also looking at her, and she immediately shut up.

"Look, you are such a coward now!" Consuela said proudly.

Nicole held the ice-cream tightly in her hand. She was not a coward at the moment, but thought of what Bevis told her.

She really wanted to ask Jacob why he refused to marry at such a big price?

But she couldn't.

Seeing Nicole stare at him, Jacob turned his head and touched his face, confused, "my face Something dirty? "

"…… No. "

"Then what are you looking at?"

As Nicole didn't respond, Consuela broke in, "She's watching your beauty."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Being teased by her friend like this, Nicole's face turned red again. She turned her head and berated Consuela.

However, Consuela wasn't scared of Nicole at all. She ran up to Bevis recklessly.

Blushing, Nicole explained, "Consuela was talking nonsense. Don't listen to her."

Jacob stared at Nicole for a while, and then asked seriously, "So am I not beautiful?"

"……"

"Really?"

"Hey, don't play with her like that."

Nicole's face turned redder. She didn't know how to answer such a serious question. Jacob was indeed very handsome. How could he ask this question so proudly!

In the silence and escape of Nicole, Jacob's face gradually darkened, and his laughing face also turned stinky.

When Nicole saw that Jacob seemed to be angry, she hesitated, "I didn't say you were ugly. Why are you so angry?"

Jacob still kept a straight face and said nothing.

Nicole had no choice but to give up and yelled, "well, you are the most beautiful one! In the whole universe. OK?"

"Haha..." Bevis and Consuela started to laugh happily.

Even Jacob smiled.

Glaring at Consuela furiously, Nicole was about to leave.

However, Jacob grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms after she left only few steps.

"Well, that's enough."

Jacob's voice was so soft that it seemed like a magic. When heard by Nicole, she immediately became quiet.

As if the whole world quieted down.
