Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 418

Although there was a big smile plastered across Sara's face, she thought that it was a pity that she had been busy these past few days. Otherwise, she could have had fun with Bess more often.

Friendships are not reinforced only by hanging out. However, it eventually becomes dimmed if ignored and not maintained for a long time, no matter how good the relationship may be.

Sara did not want to lose a close friend of hers. After all, it was hard to find someone like Bess, who cared for her sincerely.

People might not need to have many friends, but they need a few true ones. There are some who care too much about the number of friends they have. Sara, however, did not.

The truth is, determining the perfect number of friends is not actually clear. After all, sometimes, a change in quantity leads to a change in quality.

"Okay, Sara. Well, I have a lot of things to deal with. I think I should go now. Let's see each other in a few days. Bye!"

Bess bade goodbye in a hurry. Her assistant had brought another pile of documents into her office just now. She had been so busy these past few days that she did not have much time to spare.

"Sure, Bess. I'm going to work too. Take care!" Upon saying that, Sara hung up the phone. With a smile, she felt genuinely happy for Bess and Noah.

She had witnessed them as they made their way to where they were now. She had to admit, it had not been easy, but it was worth it. It was the same for everyone.

The most fortunate thing that can happen to a person is when they finally have the life they have ever wanted, even if the process is painstaking and not as smooth as they have anticipated.

Sara imagined Bess wearing a beautiful white wedding dress on the day of her wedding. She would probably be beaming with happiness that it seemed that she would get married to happiness instead to Noah.

When the call ended, Sara stood up and stretched her arms with a smile.

Then, she left her office and went to Jacob's. Of course, she had to tell him about it.

Funny enough, Bess was her best friend, and Noah was Jacob's. What a coincidence!

As Sara passed by the office area, she was beaming with joy. The employees who saw her were surprised. Who would not be? She seldom smiled in the company.

She usually looked serious and stern. Perhaps it was because she had just taken over the company and was not familiar with the employees yet?

The truth was, Sara had been aloof, not because she was not a people person, but because she had seen how aggressive those people could be. They were the reason why she lost her smile.

The moment she walked into Jacob's office, she told him right away about their best friends' wedding. Jacob nodded in agreement.

"I'm happy for them, really." His eyes lit up in anticipation. Ironically, their best friends were finally going to get married, but he and Sara were still divorced.

Of course, Sara noticed that there was something different in his eyes, which made her cheeks flush and heart pound. But, now was not the right time for that.

Many things had happened in just a short time. In just one year, they had witnessed weddings and even attended funerals. It can be said that life is not a drama. Why? Because, unlike a drama, it is much more complicated and unpredictable.

For some reason, Sara felt that she and Jacob should not marry again anytime soon. Everything was perfect, and she somehow enjoyed their current arrangements. Remarrying might just cause unnecessary trouble for her.

Legally speaking, she was a divorcee. However, she did not think that it was an insult nor offensive.

Slowly, Sara walked over to Jacob.

"Jacob, I know what you're thinking, and I want you to stop. I'll only agree on marrying you when I'm ready but, now is not the time. That's my terms. If for some reason, you can no longer wait and have decided to marry someone else, I will not stop you."

Jacob was stunned by her words and tone. He had never seen Sara so domineering before until now.

He had to admit that her demeanor at the moment made him excited.

A moment had passed, yet it seemed that his words got stuck in his throat. It took him a while before he finally found his voice.

"Well, Sara, I won't force you. Besides, when did I ever force you to do something you didn't want? As long as it makes you happy, I'll respect your decision. I promise I won't force you on anything. If you want, we can even stay like this forever."
