Jim's thoughts were not as complicated as Judy's. as soon as he heard that his sister took the money from Jacob, he immediately thought of the fact that his sister had to date someone for money. What's more, what happened before seemed to prove that it was true.
At the thought that he thought that man was his sister's true love, Jim felt even more uncomfortable.
"No, it's not like that, Jim." Nicole was going crazy. As said, once the lie was exposed, she would face a series of problems.
"Didn't you have to be with him because of money?"
Nicole didn't want to explain this to her brother at the door of her mother's bedroom, so she took Jim to the living room, sat on the sofa and said seriously, "Jim, it's not like what you think between me and Jacob."
"Then what is it?" Jim wouldn't give up.
He loved his sister. He didn't want her to be with someone she didn't like because of his fault. In addition, among the men who might be together with his sister, the one he was most willing to accept was only Jacob. That was why he wanted to know more.
Seeing her brother's determined look, Nicole knew that if she didn't make it clear, her brother would never let her go easily. So she told her brother everything that had happened between her and Jacob, including their love, separation and reunion.
But she didn't mention that Jacob forced her with money. After all, it was in the past. If Jacob hadn't done that, she wouldn't have fallen in love with him again.
After listening to Nicole's story, Jim was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was going to fight with Jacob's mother. "She is too bullying. How could she bully us like that? If I had known she was so bad, I would have kicked her out as soon as she entered the house that day!"
Nicole was amused by her brother's exaggerated movements. She held the restless Jim and said with a smile, "well, it's all in the past. Don't be so angry."
"How can I not be angry? She bullied you so much! If she hadn't been so evil, you and Jacob wouldn't have missed each other for such a long time, and you wouldn't have met that bad guy, Austin! " Well, just after hearing Nicole's words, the word "Jacob Gu" in Jim's mouth had become "Jacob".
"Yes, if she hadn't intervened in our relationship, we wouldn't have been separated." Nicole sighed, then shook her head and smiled: "maybe, but maybe without what she has done, we would also be separated, and we would not be like this again. Maybe this is fate. "
"Sister What are you talking about? "
Touching Jim's head, Nicole said dotingly, "silly boy, you will understand when you have someone you like and experience these things in the future."
Jim's face flushed. He jumped up and faltered, "I like my sister the most. I won't like anyone else. Sister, don't talk nonsense."
"Are you being shy?"
"Of course not! Go and cook. I'm going to do my homework! " Jim pushed Nicole hard and rushed into his bedroom.
Looking at the closed door of Jim, Nicole smiled helplessly. Every time he talked about her love, he always acted as if he had experienced something. As soon as he talked about him, he immediately became very coward.
In a daze for a while, the smile on Nicole's face disappeared slowly. Thinking of her mother's attitude, she sighed and went to the kitchen to cook. Anyway, she had to do what she should do.
Because Judy had gone to bed after she came back from the hospital in the morning, the family didn't start to have lunch until nearly four o'clock in the afternoon.
When the three of them sat at the table for dinner, Judy didn't mention what she had said this morning, and Nicole pretended not to mention it. She helped her mother to pick up food and fill soup, with enthusiasm.
