Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 305

"Then what are you going to do? Why didn't you go with Cindy when she went out?" Confusion was written all over James' face.

"No, I want to give her a chance to choose. Everyone has the right to make a choice. I don't want her to have any regret in her life because of this. After all, she has done too much."

After saying this, Jacob sighed. No matter what Cindy's decision might be, he would understand and accept it and forgive her. That was how considerate Jacob was to the people around him.

"Jacob, let me tell you something. You can't keep forgiving people after they do something wrong. Otherwise, they wouldn't change." There was a hint of sadness in James' eyes. Although it didn't seem appropriate to raise this subject now, he had to say it, because he cared so much about Jacob.

"If you have to give up on yourself to save someone else, you'd better not live. What's the point in living for other people? Only when people learn how to love themselves could they live better lives in this world. So, what should you do? I hope you have the answer in your heart."

Waiting for Jacob's reply, he squinted. At times like this, James could have the freedom to speak out his mind.

Seconds had passed and Jacob finally came up with a realization. "You are right, Uncle. I'm not only condoning Cindy, but I'm also giving her a chance. A chance to see herself clearly and to find herself."

"I understand. As long as the document is not destroyed, it will be found sooner or later. But how about the hope that had been broken?" With a sigh, James turned his head away.

The wrinkles in the corners of his eyes made him look like he had aged. Seeing this, Jacob gritted his teeth. He knew that his uncle had been worrying about him so much, and he knew that he too was tired.

"Uncle, what do you think people pursue in this world?" In a daze, Jacob looked at James and waited for his reply. It couldn't be the first time that he asked this question, nor the last time.

"There are a lot of things to pursue, but many people are obsessed with desire. It is because contentment brings satisfaction. Why did you ask?" As much as James wanted to laugh, he couldn't.

His smile didn't even reach his eyes. Jacob sighed and looked out of the window.

"So the first task today is to wait? Isn't it too dangerous for Cindy to go there alone? Won't she commit suicide?" As James spoke, he stood up and put on his coat.

"I don't know. This is also what's bothering me. I'm not worried that she couldn't take back the document; I'm afraid that something might happen to her while trying to get them back." A frown appeared on Jacob's face.

From where he was standing, the whole city was like a fairyland shrouded in mist. By now, Jacob's worry had intensified.

While adjusting his clothes, James told him, "We'd better take a look now before it's too late, in case something happens."

"Okay." Tensed, Jacob felt the urge to smoke, but he controlled himself.

"Should we tell this to Sara?" Frowning, James turned to him. He was sure that it would take a few days, so he thought Jacob should let Sara know. Otherwise, they might have some misunderstanding because of this.

"No, it's better to keep it a secret. She had been stressed enough recently." As he thought about it, Jacob smiled sadly.

"Well, I won't interfere. But I suggest that you tell Sara, or she will be angry." When James coughed, Jacob turned around to look at him.

"Uncle, haven't you recovered from your cold?" Jacob asked with concern.

"It doesn't matter. I'm fine now. It's just that after I get older, I get sick so easily, and it lasts for a long time." Again, James coughed violently after he spoke.

The company was in a critical situation, so he couldn't ask for a leave. No. The truth was, even if it was Jacob himself who asked him to take a leave, James wouldn't agree. Therefore, Jacob didn't say anything anymore, and resumed walking.
