Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 273

Sara rested her head on her hand as she looked at Bess with a serious expression.

"You seem happy to be with Jacob. How about we get married on the same day? Wouldn't that be amazing? We'll even have our anniversaries on the same day!"

Bess exclaimed with a mischievous grin, which made her look cute.

"I can't get married now. It hasn't been long since Michael passed away. I think we're going to have to wait another year and a half before we can get married again."

Sara rested her chin on her palm, deep in thought.

Bess shrugged, her shoulders almost touching the hot, hooded hair dryer that was on her head.

"Looks like we won't be getting married on the same day, then. But when are you planning to get marry?"

Bess asked with a doubtful look. She was certain that a complicated love story like that of Sara and Jacob's should have a happy ending. She was worried that if they waited any longer, more problems would show up.

"I don't know, okay? Relax... I don't need a marriage certificate to validate our love. A certificate isn't all that unique, nor is the promise of one's heart to another. I just want to feel our love myself,"

Sara replied with a shrug of her shoulders and placed her hands on Bess. She was pleased to see that her best friend would be a bride soon, and that, she was happy.

Bess touched Sara's hand and said, "I know life hasn't been easy for you, Sara. Although we are going to get married, you know that I am always going to be there for you, don't you?"

"I know, Bess. Seeing you happy brings me joy like nothing else could. Regardless of what happens, we're never going to move apart." Saying that, Sara pressed Bess's hands gently.

After a few hours, Bess's hairstyle was finally set. She insisted that Sara permed her hair, but Sara refused as she was afraid of the heat.

Once Bess's hair was dry, she looked perfect.

Bess looked beautiful. Her cheeks were flushed and her long hair cascaded over her shoulders in big, bouncy curls. She looked stunning in the black jacket that she was wearing. Sara often complimented on how flawless her skin was.

"Hello there, beautiful woman! Could you give me your number please? May I have the pleasure of taking you out for dinner?" Sara teased her as though it was the first time she was seeing her.

"Don't make such a fuss, I am already yours, aren't I?" Bess retorted, blushing.

The hairdresser gave them a weird glance thinking that he must have mistaken them for friends. 'Are they lesbians?' he wondered. All of a sudden, he felt a chill down his spine.

'It is indeed a pity that they're homosexuals! They look so beautiful... It's no wonder that a lot of men are finding it hard to get a girlfriend these days!'

After walking out of the salon, Sara and Bess saw Jacob and Noah waiting for them across the street.

"What's wrong? Why are you two laughing so hard?" Noah and Jacob asked in unison, smiling at them.

"It's a secret," Sara and Bess answered at the same time.

The four of them exchanged glances at each other and burst into laughter. It seemed as though they could read each other's minds.

"Where are we going for dinner? I am going to eat well today. It has been a while since Noah invited me to dinner. Have you been saving up all your money for the wedding? Is that the reason you never invited me to a meal for the past few months?"

Jacob joked, holding Sara's hand. He loved being with her and could not bear to let go of her.

"Hey, Jacob, you are the one who has been saving all the money! You never once invited me to dinner ever since you two got married the first time. Is Sara not letting you have any pocket money?"

Noah teased Sara with a smile. Every time he looked at them, he could not help but feel glad for them. Things were finally becoming better and everyone was happy.

"All right, now get in the car. It's my treat today, so leave the restaurant plan to me." Sara got in Jacob's car. Jacob was stunned to see that the joke they played on her made her frown.
