Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 404

Knowing what Jacob had gone through, Cindy comforted him.

If it were ordinary people, it would have been extremely difficult for them to make the same decision as him. Jacob nodded at her in appreciation.

"It's okay, Cindy. In fact, Kim has already made things clear. I'm happy to know that he's willing to forgive me. I hope we can start over. Let's just forget about what had happened in the past."

When he spoke, he nodded his head enthusiastically.

Just as they were talking, Cindy finally finished cooking. She then served the dishes on the table. Once done, she clapped her hands and looked at the table full of dishes. "I haven't cooked this many dishes for a long time! Mr. Jacob, please enjoy yourself."

Jacob gave her a polite smile and nodded in response. Looking at the delicious food on the table, he realized how lucky Kim was to have married Cindy.

Of course, that was only a thought in his mind. Now that she was beaming with happiness, Jacob felt happy for her.

"Cindy, if you want to go back to your hometown, just do it. Even though I'm short on staff, I won't force you. Just choose what you think is best. I'll support your decision."

Upon saying that, Jacob took a bowl and chopsticks from her.

Cindy was taken aback by his words, but she smiled. The smile on her face remained for quite some time. Jacob had no idea what was going on with her. Nevertheless, he trusted her.

"Mr. Jacob, it's okay. I actually think that you're right. A person should do what he thinks is meaningful, right? Otherwise, what's the difference between living and being a walking dead?"

She spoke solemnly, and Jacob listened.

Honestly, he had never doubted Cindy's loyalty to him, even until now. That was the reason why he felt sorry about the document incident.

Although the matter was serious, Cindy knew better not to care about it that much. Fortunately, she realized that it was not her mistake but Kim's.

Jacob helped himself to a food and casually took a mouthful of it. Although it was only a home-cooked dish, it was delectable. It seemed that Cindy was actually good in cooking.

"The food is very delicious. Kim is so lucky to have you." With a smile, Jacob complimented Cindy and Kim at the same time.

"You should eat more, Mr. Jacob." Kim picked up a piece of chicken and gave it to Jacob, which he did not refuse.

Jacob smiled in return, and the three of them had a good meal.

Meanwhile, in a Western restaurant, Alice, who was dressed impeccably, was impatiently tapping her legs as she sat.

"What's wrong with Jonathan? Does he really think that he's superior to others just because he became the president? I'm telling you, if he weren't in that position, I wouldn't even bother to look at him."

She then angrily took a gulp of water. She had been grouchy these past few days. It did not help that Jonathan was making her wait.

'Jonathan is so full of himself! If it weren't for Thompson, I would have already left!'

What made it worse for her was that it took her a long time to meet with him.

Although her patience for Jonathan was wearing thin, she felt worse for Jacob.

Seated in front of her, Thompson picked up his wineglass and swirled it leisurely. The wine reflected different colors in the light.

He looked at Alice and observed her demeanor. Ever since she had a miscarriage, her temper had become worse.

But for some reason, Thompson found it fortunate. He did not have to worry that she would make trouble in the future. As long as she was vindictive, he could make good use of her. Sooner or later, he would be able to find out Jacob's mistakes and use them to his own advantage.

It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge, was it not? Well, Thompson thought so. That was why he had been kind to Alice.

He could not afford to offend anyone who was of use to him. Of course, he planned on doing that without hurting his own ego and pride.

If for some reason, Alice went too far and ruined his plan, he would completely crush her without a second thought.
