Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 57

Why would this dress which tried by Sabina show up here?

"Jim, did the person who sent the dress say anything?" Nicole asked with a frown.

After thinking for a while, Jim said, "He seems say that it's a gift from Mr. Gu. Is Mr. Gu your boyfriend?"

Nicole didn't say anything. If it was from the so-called Mr. Gu, it must be from Jacob.

But the most important thing was, wasn't Jacob abroad? How could he know what had happened in that shop and even sent someone to buy the dress?

Nicole was more frightened than surprised.

She couldn't help but recall the details and wondered if she was bumped by someone Jacob knew.

"Sis, are you all right?" Seeing the unnatural expression on Nicole's face, Jim became nervous as well.

"I'm fine. Go wash vegetables, Jim. I'll take it back to my room." Nicole shook her hands and went back to her bedroom with her skirt in her arms.

She was in a daze for a while. Then she took out her phone and texted him.

It was a simple message, with only two words.

"Thank you."

After a while, Jacob replied, "I'm glad you like it."

Now Nicole was 100% sure that this dress was sent here by Jacob. But why?

Nicole thought for a while and sent another message.

"You are back?"

"Go back tomorrow," said Jacob

"How do you know which shop I'm going to? Why do you take a fancy to that dress?" Nicole typed these words and deleted them one by one before she sent them.

She didn't have the courage to ask such a question.

Or was it just a coincidence?

'maybe just as Jacob wanted to buy me a gift, a man picked this one and sent it to me, ' she thought?

Although it sounded a bit weird, it was possible.

At last, Nicole didn't ask any more questions. She thought, if she really had to ask, she would ask him when he came back.

At dinner time in the evening, Judy asked Jim, "sweetheart, your birthday is coming next week. Do you have anything you want?"

Nicole was surprised. "Next week is Jim birthday. I almost forget it."

"It doesn't matter. It's just my birthday. I don't want a gift." Jim continued to peel the rice, not minding it at all.

"You've worked so hard recently. I will buy you whatever you want as long as I can afford it. Never say that I don't need a present on your birthday," Judy began coquettishly

Nicole also echoed, "that's right, Jim. I will buy you whatever you want."

"Don't do this to me. I don't want anything." With red ears, Jim hurried back to his bedroom after finishing eating.

Nicole and her mother looked at each other and smiled, knowing that the boy was embarrassed to say so.

Although Nicole's family had not been rich, the atmosphere of the Du family had been very warm. Both the holidays and the birthday of the members of the Du family had been attached great importance.

Due to Jim's shyness, Nicole and Judy stopped forcing him to answer. They began to consider what gifts they should give him in private.

Judy suggested sending a book. As a student, he could broaden his horizon and knowledge.

Nicole had not decided yet, but there was still a week left for Jim's birthday, she could think about what to send.

The next day, Jacob came back.
