Chapter 128 Noncommittal
Sara looked at Jacob seriously, he didn't deny it.
"Sara, I hope you can put the overall situation first. You are a reasonable person. My father just praised you for your filial piety and good manners. My father just said that I should feel guilty to you. " Jacob knew her weakness. She can't bear to hurt the people who treat her well.
Disappointment grew in Sara's eyes. The man in front of her was a rogue. She had been fooled by him for various reasons, and now he shamelessly asked for remarriage.
"Jacob, let me tell you clearly. Listen up, I won't accept the remarriage, no matter who it is, no matter what reason or condition it is. I won't accept it. I won't accept it. " Sara's voice was louder and louder, like a thunder struck Jacob's heart.
The two of them had already walked out of the courtyard and came to the forest road outside the villa. The voice of Sara echoed in Jacob's ears. She hated him so much that she refused to remarry without leaving any room for negotiation!
How could Jacob allow such a thing to happen? Just like when they got married and divorced, it was not up to her. Since she didn't want to remarry him, Jacob would remarry her as soon as possible.
"Don't you think you are vicious? Sara, no matter what, please think about the wishes of an old man who is dying and how much glory and benefits you have obtained as the daughter-in-law of the Shi clan. If these can't arouse a little sense of gratitude in your heart, I can only say that I have chosen the wrong person, and you are just so so. You are just like those ordinary women who want to take advantage of others' power. You are no different in essence. " Jacob tried to goad her with a poker face.
Hearing this, Sara was a little excited. "Yes, I'm vicious, I'm vain, and I'm using you. I'm just a common woman. I shouldn't have come here with you today, or I needn't suffer your humiliation. Jacob, since I'm
so bad, if you remarry me, it will ruin the reputation of your family. The reputation of the Shi clan is so important. Why do you want me to marry you? " After saying that, Sara turned around and went back to the villa. It was a misstep for her not to drive herself here, so she couldn't leave now.
Looking at the disappearing figure of Sara, Jacob was lost in thought. Why did such a good thing turned into a tragedy again? Would she remarry him only when he knelt down to beg her?
When Sara returned to the villa with a calm face, James looked up at her frozen red face and asked with concern, "Sara, are you hungry? The cook is preparing lunch."
Shaking her head, she answered, "I'm fine. I'm not hungry yet, uncle." After saying that, she sat on the sofa in the living room and continued to take a nap. She felt uncomfortable at other people's home, but could do nothing to change the situation.
Once she meet Jacob, something bad would happen. Sara thought sadly. She wouldn't have said those words if Jacob said the words in a soft way. But sometimes she just couldn't control her fury. Jacob always had the ability to provoke her, making her angry.
As a meek person, she could always be provoked by Jacob. This might be part of Jacob's gift. But now, when she thought of Jacob, she felt that he would never change, just like her previous stubborn love for him.
She would never do that again. Women were always good at lying to themselves and making perfect explanations for their lover. That was why there were so many people who were obsessed with bad boyfriends. Sara was one of them.
Jacob continued to walk along the forest road outside. It was late Autumn. The leaves had almost fallen from the three, leaving only bare branches. Cold wind blew up a few leaves on the ground, rolling them up and down.
Was life the same as leaves flying up and down? Although Jacob felt that the first half of his life had been rising all the time, now it seemed that the process of falling had also come.
Everything went wrong. His ex-wife hated him to the extreme. His father was seriously ill and there was a lot of mess waiting for him to deal with.
Jacob took out a cigarette. His hand had been a little stiff after exposing in the cold wind for too long. It took him several seconds to hold the cigarette. Then he took out the lighter, but it couldn't be turned on in the wind. Jacob restrained his temper and reminded himself not to lose his temper. Then he tried a few more times and finally lit the cigarette.
Jacob wrapped his coat tightly. The wind here was much more violent than that in the city, making the environment much colder. He recalled the conversation carefully and felt that there was something wrong. Normally, Sara should have agreed without hesitation, but she refused so fiercely this time. Jacob admitted that he couldn't understand women. He always thought that women were animals who submits to pressure rather than conciliation. Moreover, he also chose to use both hard and soft tactics.
It was as if he had finally plucked up to express his love to a girl he liked, but the girl should refuse him angrily.
Jacob's mind was in a mess. He was about to lose two particularly important people. In the past, he didn't feel sad for Sara because he always thought that as long as he needed her, Sara would come back to him. But now, it seemed that it was not the case.
Sara was eager to stay away from him. The conversation between them had become tit for tat. Jacob felt pain on his face, but his heart was not much easier than his face. Both of them were painful. The pain on the face would disappear once he get back to the room, but the pain in the heart would only be sharper.
Jacob smoked a few cigarettes in a row before returning to the villa. He couldn't go out for too long and couldn't let his father see anything wrong with him. His father had been worried enough about him.
As soon as Jacob returned to the villa and pushed the door open, James's voice came. "I was about to ask the servants to look for you for dinner. Where have you been for so long?"
Jacob's face darkened. It might be caused by the cold wind. "It's okay. I was just taking a walk. Where is my father? Would he get up for dinner? "
"Yes, he is in the dining room now. Sara is still resting there."
Jacob glanced at Sara lying on the sofa and said, "Sara, it's time for dinner. Father is waiting for us. "
Sara woke up and opened her eyes, she saw Jacob's gloomy face. Sara snorted coldly. If it weren't for the sake of Michael and James, she would have already left today. "Got it."
Noticing the anger in her tone, James said in a hurry, "If you don't feel well, you can go there later."
A sense of warmth welled up in her heart. Although it was just an understatement, James had expressed his position. At least, he didn't stand on the side of Jacob. "I'm fine, uncle. I'll go with you."
Jacob frowned. She didn't say "we". Jacob knew that she was determined to make a clean break with him. He became angrier, but he couldn't break out now. 'What a stubborn woman!'.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
