Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 88

"Yes, I might go back tomorrow."

Jacob leaned against the headboard and chatted with his mother on and off. His voice was soft, which showed that he was very obedient when facing his mother. He was totally different from the usual him.

Nicole's heart sank as she heard Albertan's voice from Jacob's phone.

She hated herself, but she hated this woman much more.

If it hadn't been Albertan, who forced her to leave Jacob and even forced her to write the breakup letter, she and Jacob wouldn't have experienced those pains.

Nicole hated her weakness and inability. She could only be controlled in the game. She hated the arrogance of Jacob's mother, and the way his mother looked at her, as if she was a rubbish on the roadside and she had no self-esteem, no personality, which could be trampled by anyone wantonly.

The woman she hated was the closely mother of the man who was once loved with all her heart and now she had good feelings with once again.

Nicole was not only hated, but also angry. She was angry with Jacob's mother. She was angry that Jacob's mother managed to break them up but put all the blame on her.

As for Jacob's mother, she was the one to blame. But she still got along well with Jacob and enjoyed his love and respect.

For what?

Nicole turned around with her back to Jacob. She clenched her teeth to not lose her temper and not reveal all the dirty past.

Of course Nicole thought she was not great, but she just didn't want Jacob to be hurt again. His love in youth had collapsed in the heart of Jacob. She couldn't let Jacob doubt the family bond any more.

But after all, she was unwilling.

After Jacob hung up the phone, Jacob looked down and found that Nicole had closed her eyes and seemed to be asleep.

"Good night."

Jacob bent over and kissed Nicole on her forehead. Then he turned off the bedside lamp and lay beside her.

In the darkness, Nicole opened her eyes, and tears fell down her cheeks.

The next day, Jacob's assistant came to the villa and told Jacob that he had booked the ticket and checked out of the hotel. And the luggage of Jacob and Nicole also were ready there.

Jacob had a bit breakfast that the driver bought and nodded, "what time is the flight?"

"Two o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay, you get ready, as well. We will leave at half past eleven."

"Yes."

Jacob stood up and walked to the balcony. He looked at the beach outside. Nicole was sitting there, with her back to him and her eyes focused on the sea.

Not knowing why, Jacob even felt that Nicole's back seemed so lonely and helpless.

It was like drawing a circle to serve as a prison, in which no matter how hard others tried, they couldn't enter into her world.

He could only look at her from afar like now.

However, it was beyond his reach.

Jacob stared at Nicole for a while. He didn't go out to see her, instead, he called his assistant to the study and began to discuss business.

The assistant keenly perceived that there was something wrong with Jacob by the expression on Jacob's face. He looked at the direction of the balcony, and guessed that something was wrong, so he didn't say anything.

Nicole sat on the beach alone, with the sea breeze blowing and hearing the sound of the waves. She was finally in a better mood which was bothering her the whole night.

She sat there, looking at the sea. Suddenly she yearned for the life of those distant crew on the sea, far away from the secular world, far away from disputes, and far away from all disturbance.
