A real friend, even if she doesn't say a word, she will tell you with actions that she has always been
there. Bess was such a reliable person to Sara. She trusted Bess more than Jacob.
Sara nodded, "My phone and bag were left in the hotel. I don't have any money now. My dad is waiting
for me to go home. I didn't go home yesterday. My father should be very worried about me. "
Hearing what Sara said, Bess frowned deeper. "Hotel? Go home? Tell me what happened, Sara. "
It was not until now that Sara remembered that she hadn't told Bess that she had been evicted from the
Shi clan. She didn't know how to start. She didn't want Bess worried about her, but unexpectedly, her
situation became worse, so she had to told her.
So never think about escaping from some problems, no one can escape. She had to face it in the end.
Then Sara told her that she unconsciously broke a family heirloom jade of the Shi clan. Jacob was so
infuriated to evict her from the villa, and he decided to suppress her father's company. She turned to
other companies for help but failed. Thompson found her and said he could help her. She was drugged
by Thompson and nearly lost her chastity. She was saved by Jacob, but also humiliated by him. She
told all these to Bess.
Bess was so angry that she didn't say anything. On the one hand, she felt sorry for Sara, but on the
other hand, she thought Sara was silly. Although Sara was Jacob's wife, she didn't have much contact
with the outside world. Therefore, she didn't know about the evil and unpredictable world of martial arts.
But what can Bess do to help? It was just Sara's life. No one can feel the same way, and no one can
bear the pain for others.
Bess comforted Sara that everything would be fine, but she couldn't have the heart to see the sad look
on Sara's face. No matter how much she wanted to help Sara, she couldn't just take over her father's
company. It was about to go bankrupt. Besides, Sara would definitely not agree.
"Well, Sara. Let's have dinner first. After that, you can lie on the sofa in my office for a while. I'll go to
Jacob and take back your bag and phone. As for the future, let's think about it carefully. Okay? " Bess's
sincere eyes didn't allow Sara to refuse.
Nodding, Sara said, "Okay. Bess, I only have two requirements. First, don't tell Jacob whatever he asks
about me. Second, don't be angry. I have lost everything. I can't lose my dignity. "
Bess understood what Sara's meant. Sara was afraid that if she took revenge on Jacob for her, she
would be ridiculed by Jacob. If she lost everything, she really couldn't lose her dignity.
Bess nodded, "I know. Sara. I know your temper."
The assistant bought some food. Although Sara said she was hungry, she only had two bites. She
didn't have appetite at all. Bess saw all this and said nothing. There was no point in talking too much.
Since she couldn't eat, let her be. If she still had a good appetite in this situation, Bess should be more
worried.
After dinner, Sara lay on the sofa in Bess's office to have a rest. Bess left the office and called Jacob.
Jacob noticed the call was from Bess. 'Sara only turns to Bess to complain.' Jacob frowned and
answered the phone. The person on the other end of the phone didn't yell at him as he had expected,
which made Jacob a little surprised. Bess said, "Jacob, Where are you? I want to take Sara's phone
and bag back. "
"Oh, I'm in the office. But I didn't take her bag away. I put it on the counter of the hotel. When you get it,
just tell the receptionist. " Jacob's tone was also calm, but in fact, he was a bit worried in his heart.
Normally, it was easy to irritate Bess.
Bess sneered, "That's the best."
After hanging up the phone, Bess breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't have to look for
Jacob. This was the best way to avoid embarrassment when they met.
If it weren't for Sara, Bess wouldn't have known Jacob. She used to be the husband of her friend, but
now, he was nobody in Bess's eyes. There was no need for her to get angry with him.
It was useless. Since both sides were unwilling to tangle with each other, what else could she say? If
Sara met someone who was not good enough, she could just find a good man next time. Bess didn't
believe that Sara couldn't find a good man.
Bess asked her assistant to fetch Sara's bag. It seemed that it was right not to let Sara know, in case
she knew that Jacob didn't take her bag away.
Jacob was so considerate. Otherwise, he would have to go to meet Bess in person. It didn't hurt her at
all.
Hearing the honk, Jacob looked disappointed. Somehow, he felt disappointed. He didn't know why he
expect that Bess would scold her. Maybe he had been expecting someone to wake him up.
Sometimes, they just wanted to get a well matched counterattack, not to see their weakness and
tolerance. This also made Jacob feel frustrated. He would rather be scolded thoroughly than be silent.
This would only make Jacob feel more guilty.
He felt something was wrong, but he didn't know. He wanted to get an answer, but no one answered.
This was probably the most sad thing in Jacob's heart. He didn't want to admit it or mention it. It was
like a thorn in his heart. He knew where he was, and it would hurt from time to time. This must be a
stubborn disease in his heart.
He used to think that no matter what Sara did, he would not arouse even a little fluctuation in his heart,
but it seemed that it was not the case.
Sure enough, a woman could be like a headache, and now there was another woman. In order to
explain what happened yesterday, Jacob was extremely annoyed.
Alice was so fragile. Did he hurt two women at the same time?
Jacob felt a headache. He was thinking about how to explain it to Alice when he went home at night,
and irritably threw the documents in front of him aside.
Bad news travels fast. Such coincidences happened every day. It was inconceivable, but they all
happened in one go.
Jacob got off work early. It was useless to escape. He couldn't just not see Alice all his life.
As soon as Jacob got home, Alice looked around but didn't see Alice. Winnie was cooking in the
kitchen. Jacob went straight to Alice's bedroom upstairs.
Alice was sitting in front of the dresser in the bedroom, expressionless. She was cold as frost and ice.
Seeing Jacob enter the room, Alice didn't even raise her eyes and ask him the question she had kept
asking him before: don't you love me anymore? Don't you want me anymore?
Jacob was shocked and didn't know what to do.
Alice suddenly turned around, her eyes as sharp as arrows, as if she wanted to see through Jacob's
heart. Jacob didn't dodge. The two looked at each other.
Many years ago, they looked at each other the same way before Alice boarded the plane. A few years
later, the scene appeared again. But things had changed. If it was those people who hadn't changed,
would their hearts really not change at all?
Alice seemed to realize something. She straightened her clothes and said, "I'm glad you're back."
It was as if Jacob had said the same on the day when Alice came back.
It turned out that the law of conservation of energy was true, and so was love. No matter how much
love one had obtained and how much harm one had done to others, he/she would pay back one day.
Alice closed her eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye to the ground. She would rather not call
Jacob this morning than lie to herself.
