Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 386

The air felt chilly and warm at the same time. The atmosphere was fresh and it soothed the skin. Sara had just fallen asleep moments ago. But she was already awake again. Stretching her body, she yawned tiredly and checked the time. It was still early. The time was just 10 o'clock in the morning.

Sara found it hard to live a boring life. Assuming she could go to work, then time would pass by quickly. Being busy at the office made it seem like the days were shorter.

Of course, she knew that it all depended on her mood.

If Sara was in a good mood, she would feel that everything was perfect and serene. However, if she was in a bad mood, everything would be very difficult for her no matter where she went. She found it hard to function whenever she was displeased or furious about something.

At that moment, Sara found that it wasn't as difficult as she had expected it would be to accept the news of Jacob's resignation.

With the latest development, many things had to be compared. Now, Sara knew that she had the ability to endure. She was no longer as anxious as before.

Even if such a thing happened, Jacob would be so yielding. He wouldn't even try to put up a resistance.

Sara disliked Alice very much. In fact, she couldn't stand her. She felt that she was the reason for all the commotion lately. Right from the very beginning, Sara's guts told her that it was best to stay away from her.

Although she distanced herself from trouble, it still found a way to reach her. And the reason was because of that troublesome lady called Alice.

Sara sat up and gulped down a glass of water. Then she picked up her phone.

She wanted to call Bess. She hadn't spoken to Bess for quite a long time. Both friends were engrossed with the happenings in their individual lives. On one hand, Bess was busy with her marriage preparations. And on the other, Sara was occupied with a lot of things.

Just when she was about to dial Bess' number, Jacob's call came in.

"Open the door." He said those three words calmly immediately she accepted the call.

Sara couldn't believe her ears. She was surprised by his words. Then she said, "Are you kidding me?"

Just then Jacob rang the doorbell. The sound of the doorbell pierced through the air and put an end to the quietness.

With wide eyes, Sara looked at the living room door. She didn't know how to feel at that moment. In fact, she couldn't think straight. But she still walked to the door and opened it.

Still holding their phones to their ears, they stared at each other for a few seconds without saying a word.

Jacob entered the living room and held her tightly. She wasn't even able to turn off the phone because of his sudden grip.

At that instance, Jacob moved swiftly as he leaned over and kissed her roughly. He had missed her so much. His whole body yearned for hers.

Sara was startled by the kiss. His lips felt warm and absorbing. For a moment, she was lost in the mood of romance. But soon she began to feel humiliated.

"What are you doing?" Sara pushed him with all her strength. Because he had kissed her so passionately, Jacob's lips were slightly apart.

With sad eyes, he looked at her and asked, "You still haven't forgiven me. Okay, what do you want me to do before you forgive me?"

Hearing Jacob's words, she sighed heavily. 'Since when did he become this shameless? Why did he have that pathetic look on his face? Why is he acting so cheeky unlike his usual self?'

Just then Sara's cheeks blushed. But she pretended as if she was displeased with what had just happened. She gave him a serious look as if to say that she wasn't flustered by the kiss.

"Kneel on the washboard and then I'll forgive you." Sara commanded as she rolled her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Of course, she knew how proud Jacob was. So, she had made that command to provoke him a little. In the past, she would have never dared to make such a request no matter what he did. However, things had changed between them. They were no longer two people who were tied together by a marriage contract. Now, they were real lovers.

Hearing her condition, Jacob leaned back in shock. Then he asked with disbelief in his voice, "Are you serious, Sara?"

"If you think I'm serious, then I'm serious," she replied with a mischievous grin.

Jacob looked at Sara affectionately. The smile in his eyes extended to the whole of his face. He was obviously mesmerized by the woman standing in front of him.

"I mean... Is there a washboard at home?" Jacob asked with a hint of doubt in his voice. He had no idea that they had one.

Sara was already lost in his ambiance as she stood there. His whole being was very charming. Then she reasoned, 'Who said that this man was indifferent and stone-hearted?' In her opinion, Jacob was just like a professional comedian. His expression and words made her heart leap for joy. She also felt the urge to burst into laughter. But she refused to let her guard down.

"I don't want to talk to you anymore. You can go and meet your Alice."

Sara turned around as she pretended to be angry. She was playing hard to get.

Jacob walked forward and hugged her from behind.

He already figured how to make Sara forgive him. He planned to pester her until she agreed. He wouldn't get angry no matter what she did. Jacob knew that if he attached to her like glue, she would come around soon. After thinking of this idea, he concluded that he would be able to do it.
