Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 15

Although Nicole knew that Jacob came from a rich family, she was still surprised when she looked up at the skyscraper.

Luminous Building, only from the name, it was clear that it belonged to Gu family.

Nicole took a deep breath and gripped the handbag belt over her arm, then she stepped in.

As soon as Nicole entered, someone came up to greet her and politely led her to the elevator.

It seemed that Jacob had told them beforehand.

"Mr. Gu, Miss Du is here."

"Okay, you can leave now."

Entering the office of Jacob, Nicole was so nervous that her heart almost jumped to her throat.

This was the first time she came to the place where Jacob worked. It was strange but also attracting her admiration.

Looking at the big desk and the well-dressed man behind it, Nicole couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

The bully in her memory had really changed.

He was so dazzling.

"Sit down, please."

Jacob said in an unexpected polite way.

Nicole nodded slightly and sat down in the chair opposite to Jacob, thinking about how to start.

"Well as what we talked about on the phone before... "

"I can give you one million, but..." Jacob leaned back and changed the subject, "on one condition."

Nicole was shocked, "what condition?"

"Stay with me for a year."

"What?" Nicole suddenly stood up and asked with disbelief, "what do you mean?"

Jacob smiled and said, "I mean it literally."

"No No way... " Nicole shook her head and stepped back. "I can't promise you that."

"Then you can leave now." Instead of forcing Nicole to answer his question, Jacob picked up the document at hand and started to read it again. "But you have to make up your mind first. Not only the compensation, but also the nursing expenses after the cardiac surgery. As I know, it is also a large sum of money. It may waste all you efforts if it is delayed"

Nicole stopped walking.

She slowly turned to look at Jacob, her eyes were getting red.

"Why are you doing this, Jacob?" With a sad face, Nicole showed an expression of being humiliated in her eyes.

Jacob didn't seem to feel Nicole's sadness. He shrugged and smiled. "I'm a businessman. Of course I am expecting your return."

"I will find a way to pay you back..."

"No need."

Clenching her fists, Nicole became more and more disappointed.

"I can wait for you to think it over. But I don't think your mother and Jim can wait." Jacob put down the files and coldly looked at Nicole, "or, actually you don't care about them at all. You only care about yourself."

"Of course I do care about them! Otherwise, I won't ask you for help. I didn't know that you would ask such a brazen request! "

Suddenly, a sharp light went off in Jacob's eyes. With a wicked smile, he joked, "Even blood brother has to square accounts each other. Why should I help you for nothing?"

"You..."

"What's more, you don't have to accept it. Sacrificing others to protect yourself that is not the first time you have done, don't you think you will be in a loss?"

Nicole was speechless. She closed her eyes and sighed that she had to accept her fate, thinking that her mother and brother were still waiting for her.

"I accept your request. I will accompany you for a year."

Hearing this, Jacob didn't feel happy but got angrier.

He suddenly stood up, pulled out a check from the drawer, and threw it on the table in disdain.

"Kent!"

A person walked in quickly. "My master."

"Take her to withdraw the money and come back to report after this."

"Yes."

Kent took the check, walked to Nicole, bowed to her and said, "Mrs. Du, let's go."

As an outsider was present, Nicole restrained all her emotions and nodded to Kent, "OK."
