Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 142

At that moment, 's mind was in a mess, as if a lot of memorries upwelled in his mind, but Jacob didn't think so. Jacob nodded with a bitter smile, "I see. Noah. Thank you." Jacob waved his hand and got on the car. He stubbed out the half finished cigarette and threw it into the trash can nearby.

Looking at Jacob's waving hand, Noah thought that Jacob was always sure to win. With a sigh, Noah turned around and walked towards the villa. No matter what, his happiness was under his control, and what Noah could do was only a kind reminder.

Jacob had been thinking about what Noah had said, and what Jacob was most worried about was what Noah had mentioned. It was impossible for him not to know, but he had to take the risk now. Jacob had no choice. He had been confused before, but after thinking for a while, he had no choice but to follow this path. He knew that this was a lonely, or even forever lonely road.

Some people loved gambling all their lives, betting on their own tomorrow, and betting on their own happiness. They loved to put everything on one thing. They named gamblers. Like a gambler, Jacob didn't care about anything. He was just gambling. If he won, he would become famous; if he lost, he would lose everything.

Alice and Thompson made an appointment to have lunch together and discuss the current situation and progress. Alice dressed up casually, put on light makeup and went to the appointment. Alice had neither a good nor a bad impression of Thompson. They just took what they needed. Alice was very clear that it was just a trade, not to mention that how could Thompson be comparable to Jacob.

When Alice arrived at the restaurant, Thompson was not there. A trace of disgust upwelled in her heart. How could a man be so indecisive like a woman? He arrived even later than Alice. Of course, Alice had a bad impression on him.

But even though she was not comfortable, Alice still smiled when she saw Thompson. It was impossible to ask for help at will. Although she was a little unhappy, she held back her anger.

Thompson said, "I'm sorry. I'm late."

Alice smiled and said, "It's okay. I just arrived. "

The two walked into the restaurant side by side, like a couple. Alice didn't feel embarrassed, but she stood outside for too long that her face turned red by chilly wind.

Alice looked around like a thrush. Since she left Jacob's villa, she felt extremely insecure. She was afraid of meeting an acquaintance, and she was also afraid that she couldn't meet an acquaintance. All in all, loneliness and dignity tortured her at the same time.

But at this moment, there was a usual calm on Alice's face. No matter what, she would not cry even if she lost. Besides, Alice hadn't lost yet.

Alice always felt that Jacob was bewitched and trying to protect Sara with sympathy. Alice didn't care about it at all. She could wait.

Thompson sneaked a glance at Alice from the corner of his eyes. He wanted to take a closer look at this woman, even if they were using each other. Her face was a little baby fat, which was different from Sara's. Thompson squinted slightly.

He couldn't remember how many secret meetings they had met, but they acted like they carried on a clandestine love affair. With a smile in the corner of his eyes, Thompson was amused by his sudden thought.

As a hunter, Thompsonwould not easily give up the prey he had got in front of him. No matter how restless the prey was, it was not up to her then.

After entering the hotel, he chose a table by the window. The weather was so cold that the pedestrians on the street all shrank their heads, and there were much fewer people.

Alice rubbed her hands. She had already forgotten that Thompson was late just now. Alice didn't care about that. What she cared about was the conversation between her and Thompson today.

"Waiter, please serve the dishes and give this lady a cup of hot water. She is too cold." Thompson squinted at Alice and then looked at the waiter.

"Yes, sir. You are so kind to your girlfriend. " The waiter praised.

Thompson shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. A good family education told him that he couldn't watch a lady suffer without doing anything. Besides, Alice had had sex with him before. Even a hunter should know how to protect his prey.

Alice was looking forward to such a thing, but of course, she only expected Jacob do it for her. But she still said generously, "thank you."
