Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 352

Hearing this, Jacob became a little impatient. He couldn't talk about what Alice had done. However, if the child was really his, Jacob would feel guilty.

People were always so contradictory. Once something happened that was related to him, he couldn't complain. No matter how unreasonable it was, he had to deal with it. Now, his mind was flooded with many thoughts. It wasn't as simple as accepting the child and taking on his role as the child's father.

He once had to tell Michael that he and Alice had gotten married to pacify him. Naturally, at the time, Sara was fuming with anger. Now that Alice was really pregnant, Jacob couldn't even begin to think of the consequences.

Jacob rubbed his face and said in a low voice, "I see."

Cindy went out and looked at Jacob. Her face was full of concern. She could understand how he was feeling. It was something she learned while working for him.

Of course, Cindy was on Jacob's side. However, as a woman, she sympathized with Alice.

That's why when Alice begged her to tell Jacob, she couldn't bring herself to refuse. She felt it was her duty as a woman to help her. On top of all of the confusion, Cindy felt the most sorry for Sara.

Everything was in shambles. Jacob's mind was in such a mess, he could barely think straight. How did all of this happen, and why did it only surface now?

He hadn't been with Alice in so long. Why did she choose to tell him she was pregnant now? Jacob frowned. The image of Sara's melancholy face kept flashing in his mind. He was filled with guilt and sorrow. He didn't know what to tell her.

At that moment, Jacob felt like he was being consumed with loneliness. It did not seem like such a big issue, but it would really change a lot of things.

After a long time, Jacob headed back to his office. He planned to tell Sara that evening. He kept playing out the scenario in his mind. However, no matter how many times he rehearsed it, he still wasn't ready to tell her.

'What a mess, ' he thought.

The unknown was terrifying to some. Although Jacob felt that he was a brave man, he had to admit the situation frightened him. He was afraid that Sara would be disappointed and would never forgive him.

He loved her deeply, and he couldn't bear the thought of losing her. He also felt that Alice had set him up.

However, he couldn't bring himself to hate her. Rather, he felt guilty about the whole situation.

Even though Alice betrayed him first, he had abandoned her.

That afternoon, Jacob headed to Sara's office to pick her up. The moment Jacob saw her, he was overwhelmed with guilt.

He didn't want to hurt her, and he was certain she would be hurt by the whole situation.

He watched as Sara walked to his car. It was as if a bullet was ripping through his heart. He swallowed, and he felt his stomach churn.

For a moment, Jacob did not want to tell Sara. However, deep inside, he hoped she would understand and be with him as he went through this.

Perhaps it was too hopeful of him to wish for such a thing. But, he knew he would wait for Sara, no matter how long it took.

When Sara got to the car, she froze. The moment she saw the look on Jacob's face, she knew something was wrong.

"What happened?" Sara studied Jacob. She saw that one of his hands was behind his back, so she took it to see if he was hiding anything.
