Sara's face blushed with humiliation as Jacob gave her his straightforward response.
They had sealed a kiss for a long time before Jacob slowly pulled away from Sara's smooth pinkish lips. Her lips' tender touch and taste left an unforgettable impression.
"How is the company going at the moment?" Sara asked while her tiny soft fingers intertwined as she looked ahead.
The company wouldn't have been able to hang on for long if it hadn't developed. Thus, it was now in huge trouble.
They would've had nothing left at that point.
"No one has yet given me a serious answer. Everyone is distracted by their own problems. There's not even a single person who wants to finance our ambition. Nonetheless, it barely matters to me. It won't stop us. Someone with the same dream as us will still cross our paths."
Jacob then reached out and tenderly stroked Sara's long, black, and smooth hair, as well as her charming face. Sara responded to his words with a couple of nods. Her eyes were wide, shimmering.
Jacob got an unexpected call the following day as soon as he came into work.
Shawn from the Ho Group had called. Shawn mentioned that he needed to speak with Jacob about something important and urgent.
He kept his meeting with the Ho Group to himself. Besides, Jacob hadn't seen Shawn in a long time, and he was on the edge of giving up.
However, Jacob was elated when the Ho Group approached him suddenly today. It appeared that their cooperation was showing signs of improvement. Jacob couldn't believe it.
When Shawn said something with the lines of "See you next time," he assumed it was just a sugar coated phrase. Jacob had not envisioned receiving a response from the Ho Group.
Such words may not insult others, and they may even give them hope, but they mean rejection most of the time.
Yet now, Jacob felt as if the sun had blazed on the universe as he stood in a formal black suit at the foot of the Ho Group's building. The darkness of clouds was unable to hide the light of the sun. Wasn't that agreeable?
He wasn't positive the last time he came here, but he was sure this time. Jacob straightened his clothes and chuckled. Every cloud has a silver lining. Jacob had figured out what this old saying implied.
Jacob arrived at the first-floor reception hall as soon as he saw the receptionist, who welcomed him kindly. Everything wasn't the same as he previously experienced.
"Mr. Jacob, please follow me. Mr. Shawn has been expecting your arrival. Welcome."
Jacob was calmly led to the elevator by the clerk. He smiled and said, "Thank you."
The receptionist smiled back and stood firm.
Jacob was a charismatic guy, in any case. Despite his notoriety, the receptionist always felt Jacob was a difficult man to meet.
She had never experienced such impulses from others, but she still felt the same way she encountered Jacob. Jacob's strong aura instantly enslaved the receptionist.
When Jacob turned around after the receptionist had guided him to the office, he thanked her and saw Shawn stand up and greet him.
"Mr. Jacob, please take a seat. I apologize for keeping you waiting."
As soon as Jacob arrived, Shawn apologized. As a businessman, he was competent.
"Mr. Shawn, you're welcome. That is something I should have addressed." Jacob quietly sat down in the chair pointed out by Shawn.
Shawn smiled and waved. Jacob was a positive public person than Jonathan, as shown through his actions and words.
