Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 11

The hospital was very efficient. The next afternoon, the doctor had arranged an operation for Judy.

Standing outside the operating room, Nicole and Jim were very nervous.

After all, Cardiac stent surgery was not a small surgery.

When Nicole was walking around anxiously like a cat on hot bricks, her phone suddenly rang.

A strange number appeared on the screen.

Nicole glanced at it and hung up impatiently.

A few seconds later, the phone rang again.

Nicole answered the phone peevishly. Before she asked who the caller was, she heard Jacob's cold voice on the other end of the phone.

"Why didn't you answer it?"

Nicole smacked her lips and said nothing.

But Jacob didn't ask more questions. "Go downstairs now. The driver is waiting for you at the gate of the hospital."

"What's up?" Nicole was confused.

"Come and have dinner with me."

"Ah!" Nicole gave a simple exclamation and moved a little away from the suspicious sights of Jim. She gritted her teeth and said, "Jacob, My mother is in the operating room, and I don't have time to have dinner with you."

Jacob sneered and didn't change his mind for Nicole's reason. He still said coldly, "I advise you'd better not to disobey me, otherwise you know the consequences."

Then he hung up the phone.

Nicole was shocked. She couldn't believe that Jacob would make requests to her at this moment.

"What's wrong, Nicole?"

Seeing Nicole's pale face, Jim couldn't help asking.

Nicole paused and put away her phone as if nothing had happened, "It's all right."

Without more questions, Jim pulled Nicole to the bench outside the operating room.

As time passed, Nicole was inexplicably scared.

She owed money to Jacob. And this time, it was Jacob who helped find the doctor for Judy. 'What If Jacob did something...'

Nicole didn't dare to think more and got up quickly.

"You wait here, Jim. I need to go out for a while."

"What? Now? " Looking at the operating room and then looking back at Nicole, Jim asked pitifully, "mom is still in the operation room. Sis, why do you have to leave?"

Nicole did not dare to look at Jim's eyes. She answered perfunctorily, "you stay here. I'll be back soon."

"Okay. I will tell you as soon as I get any news here." Despite his confusion, Jim didn't ask any more questions. He just watched as his sister left.

A black car was parked in the parking lot at the gate of the hospital.

Nicole recognized it. It was Jacob's car.

"Miss Nicole, please get in the car."

The driver, who had been waiting by the side, pulled the door open respectfully to make a gesture of welcome.

Nicole squeezed her handbag and got into the car.

"Mr. Jacob, Miss Nicole is on her way."

Half an hour later, the car slowly stopped in front of a five-star restaurant.

"Miss Nicole, Mr. Jacob is waiting for you inside."

Nicole was in a bad mood. She got off the car with a long face and entered the restaurant.

The waiter should have been informed. As soon as he heard Nicole said she was looking for Jacob, he warmly led the way for her.

At a corner on the second floor, Nicole saw Jacob who was sitting on the sofa.

Now he was holding a glass of wine, looking unusually leisurely and relaxed.

Nicole was furious. She rushed over and angrily stood in front of Jacob. "Jacob, what do you mean by calling me over now?"
