Alice finally arrived at the restaurant ahead of time. When they were in college, Jacob spoiled Alice, so
she had always been late when they dated. When she arrived, Jacob would forgive her if she explained
it casually.
This time, Alice knew that she had lost her qualification to be arrogant. When a man loves you, he will
think you are forthright and cute even if you say dirty words. When a man doesn't love you, even if you
say pleasant words, he would think you were hypocritical.
Everything was destined, but Alice didn't believe in fate. She believed that Jacob was just obsessed for
a while.
She took a deep breath and exhaled. After opening the door and taking a look at the location of the
restaurant that Jacob pinned, Alice kept it in mind and closed the door.
As long as she was brave, she could do anything. Alice encouraged herself. She walked towards the
elevator in her high heels.
Jacob moved slowly. Even if the wound was still aching, he still felt incomparably relieved when he
stepped on the ground.
Today, Jacob had complex feelings. He knew the answer, but when his assistant called him and told
him the truth, he felt heartbroken for Alice. At the same time, he felt remorseful for Sara.
Jacob knew it, but he didn't tell her. He didn't say that because he believed in Alice. He believed that
the person he had loved for so many years was still innocent and kind-hearted. He believed that Sara
had been used to the feud between the rich and powerful clans and had become accustomed to it.
When Alice had a grudge against Sara before, he would think that it was Sara fault without hesitation.
But now, he realized that when a person didn't love you, he wouldn't do anything for you, including
hatred.
Jacob arrived at the place he had made an appointment with Alice. He didn't want himself to be in such
a situation. His heart softened when he heard Alice's concern. Once you do something wrong, you
can't be forgiven with just a few words of concern.
Jacob looked at Alice who was coming slowly from a distance. She was very beautiful today. Decent
clothes wrapped her good body, but these were not important in Jacob's eyes. The most important
thing was why he came here today.
"Have a seat. I've already ordered. " Jacob pointed to the chair next to him and motioned for Alice to sit
down.
Alice felt awkward to hear such abrupt words, but it was not the right time. Alice sat down obediently
and looked up at Jacob. She still felt that Jacob's face was a little pale.
"Are you feeling better, Jacob? Are you feeling better? Can you walk now? " There was no doubt that
Alice was anxious.
"Okay." Jacob replied coldly and drank the juice in front of him.
Stunned for a long time, Alice didn't dare to say anything. She stopped her concern for him abruptly.
Why was Jacob so indifferent? Alice thought to herself. When she was about to speak, she heard
Jacob's voice.
"Did you leak out the news of my divorce with Sara?" Jacob squinted at the woman he had loved for 7
years. In the past seven years, she had been acting. He had just been invited to the trap.
"What How could it be Jacob... How could it be me? " Alice widened her eyes in disbelief. As long as
she didn't admit it, no one could prove it was her.
"Oh, really?" Jacob squinted at Alice. Why was she so obsessed with this acting skill before and he
couldn't see through her?
"Jacob, what's going on? What's going on? I know nothing. I was shocked when I saw the news before.
Trust me, I'm innocent! " Alice was so anxious that she almost cried.
"Well, don't be so surprised. I just want to ask you that I don't want to dig into the past between you and
Sara. But I hope it won't happen again. Otherwise, you know the consequences of provoking me. "
Jacob said coldly. If it weren't for Alice, he would have used all kinds of methods to deal with the person
who leaked the news.
Alice pretended to be aggrieved, tears streaming down her face. "Jacob, you can do whatever to me,
but you can't slander me. I have loved you for so many years and followed you for so many years. You
should know better than me what kind of person I am. "
Alice cried so hard that she couldn't continue. She paused and continued, "I don't care who told you
that I did it, and I won't blame anyone. After all, it has been a long time since someone disliked me. I
can't confound right and wrong. Evildoers are bound to be punished in the end. "
After saying that, Alice raised her right hand, crying and swearing. Only Alice knew that her guilty
conscience was much greater than grievance.
Jacob looked up and softened his tone. Yes, Alice also needed to get out of a predicament or an
embarrassing situation. For so many years, even there was no love any more, he still had a feeling just
as family affection. Even if she had done something wrong, she had already been punished -- he didn't
love her anymore.
Jacob took a piece of tissue and handed it to Alice. "Stop crying. Your makeup is ruined. I have made it
clear today. If you can find the person who published the news and prove that it is not you, I will believe
you. "
Alice's heart jolted. Why did Jacob become like this. She used to say whatever she wanted to say, but
now it didn't work!
"Okay, I will find out the real perpetrator for your words." Alice said in a weak tone, pretending to be
calm.
Jacob didn't look askance. There was no emotion in his eyes. He used to love her so much, but now
she was putting on a bitter play in front of him. When you fall in love, you think that the other person is
a perfect person. The more familiar you are with each other, the more shortcomings you feel. No
wonder so many people had experienced the long-distance love and had to be separated.
It's not that the other party has changed, but that you suddenly find that she has lost all the advantages
you love. Maybe she didn't find it at the beginning, but later she found it.
Alice picked up a napkin and wiped her face carefully, but she still couldn't help sobbing. She didn't
expect that her makeup would be like this. In her eyes, it was just a small thing. It shouldn't be a big
deal for Jacob.
Unless Jacob really fell in love with Sara. This thought flashed through Alice's mind, and she felt like
falling into an ice cave.
Alice carefully picked up the juice next to her. She was still sobbing and could hardly find the straw
accurately. When she finally touched the straw, the waiter served the dishes.
Alice had no time to care what dishes were served in front of her. Today was completely different from
her imagination. Alice felt that her heart was blocked, and an unspeakable pain spread in her heart.
"Yan, I thought I had made everything clear. But today, I found that you didn't believe what I said. "
Jacob put some food into his mouth without looking up at Alice.
Alice shrank her neck to drink her beverage, but she didn't eat the food. She didn't want to hear that.
She didn't believe that Jacob was also so ruthless. She had been waiting for him for so many years,
how could he abandon her?
Alice didn't answer but wanted to listen to him.
