Nicole's career was going smoothly and she lived a rich and busy life every day. Then Nicole forgot about going back home.
It was not until Jim's phone call that she realized that she hadn't been home for three consecutive weeks.
"Sis, are you busy now?"
There was a hint of concern in his voice.
Nicole was concentrating on color painting the video. When she heard her brother's greeting, her heart suddenly softened, and she said with regret, "no, I'm not busy now."
"Well, well, Sis, how are you doing recently? You haven't made any call to mom. Mom miss you every day."
"…… I was too busy to remember. " Nicole felt more guilty.
Jim thought that his words upset his sister, so he immediately explained, "it doesn't matter. We understand that you are busy with your work. We just miss you a little."
Nicole's eyes got wet. "Jim, how's mom recently? Is she feeling well? ."
"Yes, she's fine. She has been taking medicine all the time, and her condition is stable."
"What about you? Have you been well behaved lately? Have you learned a lot?"
"Of course. I got second in the exam this month, which only less 2 scores than the First. Mom said she would cook a big meal for me as a reward."
Nicole happily laughed when she heard the good news about her brother.
"Sister, tomorrow is Saturday. Will you be free?" Jim asked again.
"Yes! I will be free! I'll go home tomorrow! "
She had planned to shoot a few more new videos on Saturday. But when she heard the expectation in her brother's tone, she immediately forgot her work plan and made a plan to go home.
Knowing that Nicole was going back, Jim shouted happily.
"Mom! She said she would be back tomorrow! "
Judy's voice came from the other end of the phone. Though it was not very clear, Nicole could barely hear what she was saying.
"Jim, are you calling your sister? I've told you not to disturb her if you have nothing to tell her, but you just don't listen to me. "
"All right. Please tell me when you come back tomorrow. I'll go downstairs to pick you up and now I am going to help mom choose the dishes."
"Okay."
Jim hung up the phone in a hurry. Nicole put down the phone and stared blankly at the person in front of her.
Then a picture of her mother and brother was cooking in the kitchen, and her brother was naughty, her mother was doting on her and sometimes scolded.
Just imagining it made Nicole's heart full.
Originally, Nicole was going to wait for Jacob to come back home and tell him she would go home the next day, but he hadn't come back till 11 o'clock in the evening.
Nicole felt uneasy for no reason. She put on a night robe and went downstairs. She saw Lily was still cleaning up in the front hall.
"Miss Nicole, haven't you gone to bed?"
Seeing Nicole, Lily went over in surprise.
Nicole nodded and asked, "Lily, did Jacob call you tonight?"
"Mr. Jacob? "No, he didn't. Miss Nicole, are you worried about Mr. Jacob? What about calling him now?"
Nicole thought for a while and finally shook her head.
"Never mind. He must have something to deal with at this late hour. I'm going upstairs to sleep. Lily, you should go to bed early as well."
"…… Okay. "
Lily could tell that Nicole was not happy, but at this moment, if Nicole did not ask for it, she had no position to call Jacob.
She could only prayed in her heart, hoping that there would not be any more misunderstandings.
Nicole turned off the light and went to bed.
The screen of the cellphone was still on. Although the light was dim, a small light was reflected in the darkness.
Jacob...
Would he go to the bar to have fun again
If something happened in the company as before, he would call in advance
