"You are a good wife." Jacob nodded. Fortunately, he didn't hear her speaking of the money, or he would think what he had just said was really nonsense.
"Don't you ask me when I will use my cemetery?" The smile at the corners of the woman's mouth deepened, as if she was joking.
"It's okay. You can use it whenever you want." Jacob strode out, standing straight and leaving without looking back.
The woman was stunned. Was this the last respect Jacob had for her?
She glanced at the crowd below her. It was so cold, but the police were preparing an inflatable cushion for her.
The woman suddenly felt a little sad. It turned out that there were so many people caring about her, but she had never found it. She had always felt that the world was as cold as an ice house until today. It turned out that there's still warmth in this world, but she didn't find it.
After staying in the skyscraper for a long time, the woman got off the guardrail. Jacob was right. Death was not terrible, but living was.
She hadn't experienced all kinds of bitter life and hadn't seen enough of those beautiful things. She couldn't die.
Even if she died, she shouldn't have died like this. If she died like this, her husband would definitely be unhappy.
Jonathan had been watching the scene of the rooftop in the crowd downstairs. He could only see a very vague figure, but the woman waited for a long time and did not jump down. He was so angry that he stamped his feet. Moreover, even downstairs, he could see that the man standing not far away from the woman upstairs was Jacob.
He would recognize him even if he turned into ash. Damn it. But not long after Jacob left, the woman disappeared from the guardrail. She didn't jump off the building.
Some people downstairs felt lucky, some didn't care, and some were unhappy. Besides Jonathan, there was also the paparazzi, Colin, who was not satisfied with this result.
Colin had always wanted to make a big news.
But he didn't expect that the two of them said something upstairs and the woman who wanted jumped off changed her mind.
It was truly inconceivable! Many people downstairs were excited. If she jumped down, it would only take a moment. But she had made up her mind not to jump! How much she had thought before she finally gave up!
James looked at the woman who went down from the rooftop and breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, Jacob was not the little boy in his eyes. He could handle such a difficult thing.
James turned around and glanced at Jonathan. He didn't like this nephew at all. It was not because Jonathan contradicted him in the meeting, but because he had a bad impression on him all the time.
Jonathan was a well-known playboy in his family. He was good at nothing but making trouble. Such a person naturally wouldn't leave any good impression on others.
Jonathan also glanced at James. He knew why James suddenly came back to the company after he left. Even a idler like Jonathan knew Jacob's intention.
First, James took back his shares of 20%. After all, except Jacob, James held the highest share. Of course, this was only a one-sided look, and some people would not think so.
Because they had a lot of ways to plan other people's assets together.
"It seems that Jacob is really lucky." Standing next to James, Jonathan was eager for the woman to jump down.
But now, even if it was a real big thing, he could still watch it with indifference. It was true that people would understand the heavenly destiny after fifty.
Jonathan's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that he had succeeded in infuriating James. Since he couldn't win him over, it was okay to show his stand.
"I'm still young. It's too early to say that I will be alone all my life." He was pinching James's weakness, but his calmness made him feel so annoyed.
Maybe it was because of his calmness that James could hold on till today.
Jonathan even forgot the coldness outside today. He was so excited when the woman was about to jump off the building. But now, Jonathan's blood was boiling again.
It was a happy thing to see others make a fool of themselves, which had always been the principle of Jonathan's life. He didn't need any explanation but laughed at others.
"Kid, you are still too young." There was actually a faint smile on James's face, with no trace of anger.
Seeing that James was content instead of angry, Jacob became more and more upset. How annoying it should be to be laughed at by a loser! James was the biggest loser, but he could still smile!
"Why are you smiling? Do you think it's enough to hide your embarrassment with a smile? Let me tell you, no matter how you smile, a loser is a loser. Is there any change?"
Jonathan was exasperated. He tried to hurt the elder man in front of him without thinking twice. Maybe people were always like this in front of interests. There was no morality, but only seeking profit and avoiding harm.
"I'm laughing at you. Even if I live alone all my life, I'm happier than you. Unlike you, you are always crooked. I want to tell you something that has been passed down from ancient times. Harming others is always harmful to yourself. Have you heard about that?"
