Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 298

"Ha! Does that mean that you can do whatever you want just because you're the boss? All of us who are under you have to bend to your every whim?"

Jonathan was skilled at turning the tables. He had already convinced more people to be on his side.

Jacob sneered. "What a clever trick! I didn't do anything I wanted, nor did I force you to do anything. You are employees of the company. These are the rules you must follow."

Jacob tried to keep his cool. Jonathan was egging him on. He could feel it. But, he wouldn't give him the satisfaction.

If he endured Jonathan's arrogance and rudeness, he would save himself a whole lot of trouble.

"Well, now you want to be a good person. What you did doesn't work!" Jonathan clocked in, and he walked towards Jacob.

The two of them looked at each other straight in the eye. The others clocked in and walked into the Shi Group building. Both Jacob and Jonathan stood at the gate.

Jonathan was shameless, acting so brashly in public. Once he began making trouble for Jacob, Jacob wouldn't be able to get rid of him. James watched them and heaved a deep sigh. Jacob was too polite, too kind.

If James were in his shoes, the fight would have already begun. However, Jacob was different. What he needed most was a plan.

James controlled his annoyance and watched silently from the side. He resisted the urge to walk right up to Jonathan and smack the smug look off his face.

"Jonathan, do you think I can't touch you?" Jacob raised his eyebrows, with anger in his eyes.

"Ha! I just don't like you. You want to get rid of me, but you can't do anything to me."

Jonathan raised his voice and eyed Jacob condescendingly.

Jacob heard laughter around him, and he felt disgusted.

"Do you want to experience how it's like to be thrown out by security again?" Jacob threatened, raising his eyebrows.

"Ha! Don't bother. You're afraid, Jacob. Let me tell you that no matter how many times you try to have me thrown out, it doesn't matter. I've already done my job to damage you the best way I can!"

Jonathan laughed wantonly. It was his greatest joy to hurt Jacob. Perhaps this had been his biggest wish since he was born.

Many things in life did not make sense. People could be so overcome with malice and hatred that they could kill others at the slightest infraction.

Jonathan hated Jacob with every fiber of his being because he believed Jacob had stolen what was rightfully his. However, who could be certain? Perhaps Jacob was just in the right place at the right time. If it weren't him, someone else might have taken his place.

But still, the hatred in Jonathan's heart was very deep. He couldn't get rid of it.

Their rivalry would never have a happy ending. One of them would have to die for it to be over. Jacob knew it was possible that some people would never be friends.

He and Jonathan were such a pair.

Of course, no one started out as enemies. They had grown to loathe each other over the years. After such a long time, Jacob was able to see things clearly.

"Hurt? You really think too highly of yourself. There's only one thing I want to say to you. I really don't care much about you. No matter what you say or do, it will just bounce off of me."

Jacob shrugged and looked at Jonathan with a calm look in his eyes.

Jonathan was slightly stunned. "No, that's impossible. I don't believe it. I don't believe that you don't care. Even regular people get hurt when others provoke them!"

Jonathan looked at Jacob in disbelief. For a moment, he didn't know how to feel. A mix of emotions rushed through him. Surprise, suspicion, unwillingness, and anger shone on his face. It was all so complicated.
