Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 34

"I..."

Holding Nicole's hands tightly, Jim sobbed and complained, "Sis, you can't lie to me anymore!"

The care and treasure he showed on his face were all seen by Nicole. Looking at her brother who was in tears, she was about to cry too.

She really didn't want to lie to her brother, but she also didn't want him to worry about her.

He lost his father when he was very young, and his mother had been seriously ill in bed. As his elder sister, she had divorced. All these had been a heavy blow to Jim.

How could she bear to see her brother to suffer more?

Under Jim's gaze, Nicole bit her lips and nodded. "I really like him, Jim."

"Didn't you lie to me?" Jim asked in disbelief.

Nicole sat down with Jim and said seriously, "I didn't lie to you. I really like him. He is a good man. He is really good."

Jim sniffed and asked, "Is he better than Austin?"

"Of course, he is much better than Austin." Nicole replied sincerely.

Although for many times Nicole couldn't understand Jacob, and his behaviors were even excessive. But when she was in great need of help, he stepped forward and saved her mother's life by all means, even though he was mean.

Nicole had only one shortcoming: kindness.

She always suffered losses because of her kindness. But she also encountered a lot of good things and people because of her kindness.

If there was anyone else who treated her well, she would definitely try her best to pay back.

If Austin was willing to pay the fees for the surgery, Nicole might be moved and get back with him, even for the simple purpose of repaying his help.

But Austin hadn't been willing to pay for it, which gave Jacob a chance.

But in Jacob's mind, it was also reasonable for Austin to be reluctant to pay the money.

"Sis, when did you two get to know each other? Why have I never heard you mention him?" Asked Jim confusedly.

"We..." Nicole paused and said, "Actually we knew each other a long time ago, but we had some misunderstandings at that time. Now we meet again, and we are together."

"So you've known each other for a long time. No wonder you're back together so soon. Sis, if he doesn't treat you well, you must tell me, and I'll beat him for you!"

Nicole was amused by her brother. She rubbed her brother's head with doting eyes.

"My brother Jim has grown up to a real man."

As she went back to her own room from her brother's, the smile on Nicole's face faded away.

She threw herself on the bed and buried her face in the pillow.

'Do I really like him?' Nicole asked herself.

Sometimes, she really felt her heart bouncing faster. She couldn't help staring at Jacob, she praised his handsome face and fell in love with him when they were skin on skin.

But it couldn't be called love.

She was just hurt by love and marriage. How could she fall in love with someone so quickly?

Not to mention the fact that there is no love at all. Everything is just a deal.

But if it's just a deal, why am I so engrossed in it and feel that I'm spoiled?

Would she feel heartbroken in such a time of contradiction?
