Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 203

When Jacob was still angry, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and answered the phone impatiently, "hello?"

The man on the other side was frightened by the special charge's tone. He shouted in a particularly timid voice, "Mr. Jacob..."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Well, I have found something about the thing you asked me to investigate, so I want to report it to you." Afraid that he might offend the boss, the man replied quickly and clearly, "through observation and tracking these days, we find that Miss Consuela seems to be pregnant."

Jacob asked, "It seems?"

His subordinate wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said firmly, "yes, I'm sure. I'm sure I'm pregnant. When she went to the hospital for a physical examination, our people found it out. What's more, I also found many boxes from the trash she threw away. The boxes are from maternal exclusive stores and infant exclusive stores "

"Okay..."

"Mr. Jacob, what should we do next? Should we still keep an eye on her?"

"Okay."

Jacob was shocked by the news. He immediately thought of the unusual behavior of Nicole after she met Consuela that day. At that time, he thought it was because of the emotional fluctuation of Nicole, It should be a girl's impulse.

When he recalled the past, he guessed that Nicole had known that Consuela was pregnant, so Nicole was worried about Consuela and wanted to help her.

Since Nicole didn't tell him such an important thing, it must be Consuela who asked her to do so.

But why didn't Consuela want to tell him?

Bevis.

Jacob thought of the key point soon. From his point of view, Consuela seemed to like Bevis very much. That was why she chose to disappear after breaking up with Bevis. Then it was clear who was the father of the baby in Consuela's belly.

After figuring out the whole story, Jacob hesitated.

Bevis was his good friend. Should he tell him about it?

Frowning, Jacob stood up and walked to the bedroom step by step. He saw Nicole sitting in front of the computer and browsing the private messages and comments sent by her fans.

Obviously, Nicole was so focused that she didn't hear his footsteps.

Staring at the profile of Nicole for a while, Jacob thought of the question that made him hesitate and said straightforwardly, "is the baby in Consuela's belly from Bevis?"

"Ah!" Startled, Nicole turned to the door, frowned and asked, "what did you say just now?"

"The child of Consuela is from Bevis, right?"

Nicole's face changed.

Seeing Nicole's face, Jacob didn't need to ask any more. He bit his lips impatiently and asked, "what's your plan? Don't you tell Bevis?"

"You are... How did you know it? " Nicole was so surprised that she slowly stood up from the chair and looked at Jacob in bewilderment.

"You don't have to know that. Tell me, aren't you going to tell Bevis? Or do you have any other plans? "

Nicole was confused by Jacob's question. She was still wondering why he knew.

"I want to tell Bevis." Said Jacob expressionlessly.

"No way!" Nicole suddenly shouted. She rushed to Jacob, grabbed his arm and begged, "no, you can't tell Bevis."

"Why not? He is the father of the child. He has the right to know. "

Nicole shook her head repeatedly. Although she agreed with Jacob's words, she couldn't tell anything to Bevis because of Consuela.

"Jacob, Listen to me, it's not that simple." Nicole pulled Jacob to the bedside and sat down. After pondering for a while, she said slowly, "Bevis has broken up with Consuela. Besides, he has another woman by his side now. That woman is too extreme. That's really not good to tell him at such condition."

"But Bevis has the right to know." Jacob insisted.

He considered it as a man. As a man, he hoped that the man knew it and would not be kept in the dark. What's more, Bevis had lost a child, which was a big blow to him.

Nicole nodded, "yes, he does have the right. But Consuela told me to keep it a secret from Bevis. Do you have to tell Bevis? "

Jacob remained silent.

"In fact, it's not a big deal if we don't tell him now. Consuela has planned to give birth to the baby well. She is in a stable mood now. If we tell Bevis the truth, he will have a fight with his girlfriend and Consuela may be implicated. "

"So, you mean we just hide it from Bevis together?"

Nicole hesitated, "at least... We can tell him when the baby is born. Or, when Consuela wants to tell him... "

Jacob looked helpless. After a short period of anger, he began to understand Nicole's worries. Now, it was not a good time as Bevis was with his hysterical girlfriend.

"Promise me that you won't tell Bevis, okay?" Noticing the change of Jacob's attitude, Nicole asked in a hurry.

"…… I won't tell him for the time being. "

"Thank you!" Nicole finally breathed a sigh of relief. She held Jacob's hand tightly and told him all her worries that had been hidden in her heart these days.

Jacob frowned and asked, "you mean you want me to help Consuela?"

Nicole nodded heavily, "yes! I don't know anyone over there. And Consuela doesn't allow me to hire a nanny for her. Don't you have business there? Can you take care of her by the way? "

"But why should I help her? She has nothing to do with me. " As for Consuela, Jacob had a clear knowledge. The reason why he was so concerned about Consuela's pregnancy was that Bevis was his friend.

"She is our friend!"

Jacob shook his head and corrected Nicole, "no, she is your friend."

Nicole didn't understand why a generous man like Jacob suddenly became so timid and unwilling to help her. She couldn't help but grumble Jacob, "why are you being so timid? If it was Bevis, I would also help."

"Why?"

"Because Bevis is our friend and also a high school classmate."

Jacob remained silent. He didn't like the way Nicole talked about Bevis, nor did he like Nicole to say that Bevis was her friend. He even didn't want Nicole to have a male friend.

"Can you just help Consuela? Just take it as helping me, okay?" Nicole had no choice but to soften her tone.

"Okay."

"Really?"

Jacob nodded, "but I have a condition."

Surprised, Nicole asked, "what condition?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet. I'll tell you when I get it. You have to agree to my request. "

"Ah You won't mention anything difficult, will you? " Nicole was a little scared. She always had a sense of danger when she heard what Jacob said. She was afraid that his request would also be hard.

"Yes, I will." Jacob admitted. "You can choose not to agree and then find a way to help Consuela yourself."

Only then did Nicole realize that this was clearly a coercion. He was sure that she would not leave Consuela alone, so he put forward a domineering condition.

"You just said that you didn't want to help Consuela. Actually You just want to make a trap for me, right?" Nicole pouted and complained.

Jacob neither admitted nor denied. With a smug smile, he asked Nicole, "have you made up your mind? Yes or no?"

"…… Yes. " Glaring at Jacob, Nicole warned him angrily, "although I have promised you, don't ask too much."

"It depends on my mood." Jacob proudly pinched Nicole's chin and kissed her heavily. "Now, I'm in a good mood."
