Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 320

As a result, Kim made the choice to act like a fool, and subsequently got hurt. So what he had done was not something one could blame him for.

James gave Cindy a glance and found that tears were already streaming down her face at that point. He speculated and formulated the idea that she must have cursed Kim by now.

After all, he could see that she was the stronger one in this relationship. Either way, both of them still had feelings for each other. But after all that had happened, no one knew whether they fell out of love with each other.

Everyone had their own judgment, and those who shared the same sentiments could naturally end up together. Based on that fact, both Cindy and Kim didn't exactly seem to fall as a compatible pair.

However, many people could get along with each other just fine, even if they don't share the same viewpoint. However, the emotional pain that they would have to endure would surely be greater.

Jacob let go of Kim's hand. At this point, the suspense about the unpredictability of the situation faded away.

But he felt that the disappearance of suspense was merely another layer of question that remained unanswered. In his heart, the feeling of uncertainty remained. Since Kim neither confirmed nor denied, it meant that there was someone else behind this plot.

He sat in the car in silence and observed Kim who had just started to calm down. He looked as if he was out of energy, but one could tell that he never lost his confidence.

People in the car remained in utter silence, and this matter sent a sudden jolt into their spines. Despite the silence, it didn't necessarily mean that they never felt any intensity.

Throughout the process, Cindy kept wearing her frown. She realized that she, too, had made a lot of mistakes in the past that led them to this situation. She was always the picky type. She always believed that she wasn't lucky enough to meet a good man, and even went to the extent of always reminding Kim how he wasn't good enough for her.

In the end, it was her who forced him to stray further from the right path. This was the reason why he chose to go all the way since he had nothing to lose, and he had no way back.

But then again, it wasn't her who forced him to buy the lottery. He alone made that choice.

All of them were minding their own business, and the vibe enveloping the whole place felt as if they were about to go to an execution ground.

James took a cursory glance over at Jacob. Deep inside, he wanted to say something to him, but he didn't want to be the one to break the silence in front of all of them.

An idea came to his head and he took his phone to discreetly send a message to Jacob.

James: "Jacob, I think something is happening with this whole affair. Something we're not aware of. Play it safe and don't push Kim and Cindy too hard."

The faint buzz came out of Jacob's phone, and he wondered who might have sent him a message at this hour. He took it out and examined the message almost immediately after the ringtone. He looked up as he attempted to catch an eye contact with James, but the latter sat there in silence, pretending to ignore everything around him.

Jacob raised his eyebrows in curiosity and replied a message. Cindy and Kim sat straight and stiff. They looked too tense and they did not dare to look back or say anything.

She always regarded herself to be of first priority at any given circumstances. But what happened today had completely destroyed her self-esteem.

Not only was Kim humiliated, but the nature of their relationship was exposed out in the open—a failed relationship at that. However, she pushed through and tried her best to keep the feelings of frustration at bay. She kept in mind that the problem hadn't been solved yet.

Impressive as that may be, she still had no idea what she could do at this moment.

She was desperate for answers. The situation was so dire that she even went to the extent of reflecting on her actions, trying to examine if she had done something wrong. If it hadn't happened, she might not had realized that she was also in the wrong about their relationship. The silver lining was that it was a wake-up call for her.

Now that the whole conflict enlightened her to some extent, she realized that her ideal man would be an impossibility, since there was no such a person—a perfect men. Every person had to take responsibility of their own mistakes. She looked down as she continued to reflect on her actions

The car stopped at the roadside, and Jacob pushed the door open and went out. The rest of them followed through.

The towering building of the Shi Group stood in front of them. Jacob squinted as the sun rays touched his face.

His hair gave out a nice shine as if the sunlight caused him to bloom. He then took a look at James and nodded as if they were communicating telepathically. His mind was occupied with James's message and had given it a lot of thought.

He felt better at the thought of knowing someone who shared the same thoughts with him.
