Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 448

"I just got here." As he spoke, Shawn already glued his eyes to Sara.

He was mesmerized by the beauty in front of him. The woman looked like a goddess who could captivate all men's attention.

Also, the way she moved was very charming. It made her stand out from any ordinary woman out there. Shawn took a glimpse at Jacob. Jacob noticed it and he instantly knew what Shawn could be meant.

"Let me introduce you to each other. This is my wife, Sara Huo and she is the CEO of our company. Sara, this is Shawn Ho. He is the CEO of the Ho Group. I think you already heard about each other before. You just have not been formally introduced to each other."

Jacob looked at Sara. He had been handling the cooperation alone, so Sara always didn't have the opportunity to meet Shawn.

"Hello, Mr. Shawn. Pleased to meet you. I have heard many things about you," Sara said. A lovely smile was visible on her lips. Anyone who would see her beautiful smile would surely feel woozy. Jacob was pleased when he saw that Sara and Shawn shook their hands.

"Well, I must say that you are indeed a lucky man Mr. Jacob. But it's not confusing too if why a talented man like you is together with a stunning woman. The two of you are such a lovely couple. Congratulations!" Shawn suddenly felt jealous when he noticed the couple's eyes were full of admiration and affection for each other.

"Mr. Shawn, you got to be kidding. We are not different from those normal couples, there's nothing special." Even though Jacob said those, he looked very happy by what Shawn said.

Then Jacob started to introduce Sara to the people around them. Honestly, he already did it before. But he was not as serious at that time unlike now.

Most of the people who were present already knew Jacob. Every popular person in the business world had already heard his name.

Even though what happened before had brought him to the lowest, no one still doubted his potential that he would make it to the top again.

A true hero cannot be simply knocked down just because of a blow. Not everyone would encounter such a great battle in their lives. Most of the people stared at Jacob with a very meaningful look.

Jacob dealt with the most successful people at the banquet without any hint of embarrassment. People never saw him as a loser at all. The truth was, they could feel the power and confidence that was overflowing from his aura.

Jonathan only stood in the distance while holding Alice's hand. He just looked at Sara and Jacob firmly. He was supposed to be the most eye-catching man at the party tonight.

But the damn Jacob seemed to take the attention of the people which made him left behind the limelight. On the other hand, Jacob didn't even notice Jonathan and Alice at all.

Occasionally, Alice would throw a glance at Jacob like she was still the schoolgirl on the campus who had a crush on him in the past. Even though Alice cared about Jacob very much that time, she would just keep herself silent and just took a slight glimpse at him.

But now, everything had been different. They already both had someone at their sides.

Alice suddenly felt a little happy when she saw how delighted Jacob was with Sara. Finally, he found his own happiness. However, it still saddened her that the woman who was making him happy was not her.

"I shouldn't have come here. I knew that Jacob would also be here tonight. His resignation was a part of his scheme. Alice, now you must know why you are living your life like this, don't you?"

Jonathan pestered Alice. But she knew better now so she just ignored his words. If it was in the past, she would surely turn pissed.

However, various things had been changed. Way back then when she was still young, Alice used to think that the world would treat her gently.

But now, she wouldn't dare to think about it again. Since she was the one who made all the choices, she had no option but to bear all the consequences on her own. Alice just knew that no one would take the obligation and bear it for her.

Jacob saw a familiar figure from a distance and noticed that it was Alice. He suddenly felt uneasy after he took a glance at her. At that moment, he felt that something had changed to her that made her different from before.

After all, Jacob remembered that Alice only looked at him that way when she left and went abroad. Jacob nodded politely and smiled at her.

Alice didn't respond when Jacob smiled at her. She was stunned for a moment. Until now, Alice's heart would still beat fast whenever she saw the smile of Jacob. But if there was something different about her, it was the feeling was not that strong anymore.

Jonathan noticed how Alice got stunned for a moment. He also saw the silent communication between her and Jacob but still didn't say anything. They already talked about the matter last time and Jonathan forgave her.
