Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 208

When Alice studied abroad, she should have thought about the possibility that love would change. Everything changes. Things that had never happened before were happening every day. The only thing that kept unchanged in the world is change itself.

Accidents may happen in each second. As the gear wheel of fate slides open, stories would definitely happen in the past four years.

Time waits for no one. Only people would wait for the others. However, they should not be blamed even if they were unwilling to wait for longer.

Jacob took a sip of red wine. It should be sweet, but he felt a little bitter.

On the one hand, the problems he had encountered hadn't been solved properly yet, and on the other hand, Sara had never accepted him till now. Both problems made him feel bitter. Jacob was constantly feeling a lack of sense of control.

Yes, he didn't know since when he felt that fate was unpredictable. In the past, he was always full of passion and didn't really have any self-knowledge.

Now he knew that he was just an ordinary man. No matter how much wealth he had, he would never control anything around him. For example, Sara, who was just beside him, was not in his control.

Even though he was extremely rich, he still felt lonely. Even if the one he loved was right in front of him, he still felt that they were so far away from each other.

It was him who changed everything, planned his own life, and chose to live in sadness.

On the other hand, Sara was just a victim, who had never been entitled with the right to change her fate.

She proposed a toast, tears streaming down her face.

Jacob looked sad, but he didn't have the heart to look at Sara. He was afraid that his fragility would be discovered. He didn't want to let the woman see his sadness.

"After the meal, you just go back to the company. Thank you so much today, Sara." He tried to accost her, but wend up saying something irrelevant

If the word "Love" was abused, it would be devalued.

So Jacob never said that. He just wanted to show his love by actions.

"Okay." Sara took a tissue and wiped her mouth, feeling reluctant to leave.

The problem hadn't been solved yet. She didn't want to leave, but she had to. She had no reason or excuse to stay. She had nothing to do with Jacob now.

'Could I be friends with him? I don't lack friends.' Thinking of this, Sara stood up and said goodbye to Jacob.

Perhaps everyone was like a bird that had been waiting all the time. She thought she could finally meet a person and start a life with him. People always complain that they have nothing in their lives. The truth was that they were unaware of their belongings until they have lost them. As a result, they were unlikely to have any stories to tell in their lives.

Watching Sara's receding figure, Jacob didn't even had a chance to send her to the door. Sara turned around and left decisively. Maybe she didn't want to cause him any more troubles.

Jacob thought of the name of Alice again. She'd better stay abroad and never come back.

Jacob had known everything, but he didn't want to tell. He couldn't believe that Alice, whom he had loved and waited for years, was totally different from what he had imagined.

Perhaps this was the reason why he kept a distance from her. He loved the Alice in his imagination, so sometimes he couldn't accept the fact that the Alice he imagined was far away from the one in the true world.

It was like a man getting married. He thought he had married a beautiful woman, but in the end, after getting married, the woman removed her makeup. The man was so regretful.

Even so, Jacob still felt sorry for Alice. Even if he sent her abroad, he would treat her well materially.

However, it was Jacob's bottom line to keep her away from this city.

In the past few days when Jacob lost his contact with Alice, Jacob seemed to have forgotten everything about her. He had forgotten the existence of such a person and what had happened between them. But what Sara said pulled him back to reality. Nothing could be so easily forgotten.
