"Pfft!" Jacob burst out laughing coldly, then raised his hand to cover it up, his face tinged with a little apology, "Sorry, I didn't mean to, I just ......"
Edward sulked somewhat discontentedly, "What, are my words ridiculous?"
"No." He shook his head.
"Then why are you laughing?"
Jacob did not answer immediately, just slowly poured himself a cup of tea, until the fragrance of tea spread between his nose, which made his mood followed a burst of relief.
"Mr. Ford ......"
At that, Edward's eyes were cast upon him.
Jacob also looked over, the two eyes collided in the air, a ripple under his eyes, "Your words, can I believe?"
Jacob was deeply puzzled.
Edward kindly laughed, "So you think, I'm not trustworthy?"
Jacob shook his head unapologetically, "I've seen too many Mr. Ford's who have gone back on their word, I know everything you've done, and everything about you, and of course, you know everything about me, and we know each other, but ......"
"But what?"
"But I am a small person, I can't guarantee that I really know everything about Mr. Ford, and besides, I really can't figure out how Mr. Ford can look at a person like me."
"As I said, you are young and have the strength!"
"But there are plenty of young people with the strength to do that." Jacob didn't even think about poking holes in his words, "Mr. Ford, don't blame me for speaking too straight, in the end, I'm just afraid you'll use me."
Edward shook his head at him and dropped his fingers to the desk and tapped a few times.
When he raised his eyes again, there was a flash of gloomy sting, "And what if I said that I was trying to hit Logan hard?"
"This ......"
Jacob was silent for a moment, not knowing how he should answer.
Edward laughed out loud, "Don't be nervous, I'm just kidding, more than Logan, I see you as a person, no matter what you think of yourself, I only have one word, I value you, and naturally I will treat you well!"
"So now what Mr. Ford is saying, is that also one-sided?"
"What?"
Edward's face was puzzled, somewhat unsure of his sudden questioning.
Jacob hooked his lips and said unsalty, "For so long I stayed by Mr. Not that I was heartfelt, but I had nowhere else to go, and I was even less able to trust everyone wholeheartedly, including you, of course, Mr. Ford."
He swept him a look, his gaze frank, "So, I never wanted to leave Mr.'s side, let alone betray him."
Edward narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, word for word, "And what if I could make you believe me?"
"What do you want to do?" Jacob was unclear.
