Chapter 1693
“I called them here.” Jacob’s voice was raspy and he didn’t look at Lenora. “You should go out first.”
“Jacob…”
Lenora didn’t get to finish her sentence.
Seeing Jacob’s cold demeanor, she sadly put down the soup in her hands and left the ward.
Things had been like this these past few days.
When Jacob woke up, he mostly ignored her
If this had been before, Lenora would have definitely lost her cool.
But now… she was starting to feel guilty.
“Is Erica still being crucified by the public?” Jacob asked after finishing some work, head lowered.
His assistant had been working by his side for a long time now.
He was somewhat aware of the drama between Jacob and Erica Shields.
Despite Erica’s not-so-great reputation in the public eye, the assistant had a pretty good impression of her.
Last year, Erica and his boss seemed to be on very good terms.
On trips with Jacob, the assistant had even seen him picking out diamonds, like he was selecting an engagement ring
He had thought that the two might be getting married this year.
But to his surprise, Erica was indeed getting married, but to another man.
“It’s better now, other trending topics have come up, she’s not getting as much attention. The assistant replied.
Jacob stared at the small table in front of him, lost in thought for a moment, then said, “Do me a favor”
Late at night.
The official account of a company owned by Jacob suddenly posted a statement.
Unlike most statements these days, this one was a handwritten letter.
“Hey everyone, it’s Jacob. About my past with Ms. Lawrence, I have a few things to say. I met Ms. Lawrence when we were young, we both loved each other passionately. We broke up because of my lack of trust, my lack of appreciation, and my disregard for the pressure and grievances she’s been enduring all these years. Now, she’s found her true love, and even though it pains me, I sincerely wish her and Mr. Carter the best. I’m seriously ill, and I’m very grateful to Mr. Carter for putting aside our differences, sacrificing his honeymoon to come back with a medical team to visit me. Lastly, Ms. Lawrence has always been very kind, she values life, not just human life, but even the life of a cat or dog. I hope everyone doesn’t overinterpret her coming to see me.”
The handwriting of the letter was a bit shaky.
It’s clear that the person writing the letter wasn’t in a good state.
Once the letter was posted, the discussion immediately heated up.
“Looks like this jerk really still loves Ms. Lawrence!”
“My god, the words in this letter reveal Mr. Strand’s heartbreak, what’s going on?”
“Look at you, you didn’t cherish her, she was with you for sixteen years, if you cherished her a bit more, you wouldn’t have lost such a beautiful wife!!
