Prev Chapter Next Chapter

He was her life-saving straw.

"No problem. I can always help you. But it depends on your performance when necessary." With a sly

smile at the corners of his mouth, Thompson looked at the beauty in front of him lasciviously.

Alice snorted, "Well, it depends on how you help me."

After dinner, Thompson sent Alice home and then went to the company. In fact, the two were of the

same trade. After all, Thompson was running a jewelry store. It was really fate.

Alice returned home, feeling tired. Although she had assigned the business to the shop manager. Her

tiredness was self-evident.

What happened last night was still vivid in her mind. She only hoped that what she had done would

really help her without ruining her. If Jacob knew this, he would never reconcile with her in the future.

She threw away her bag, kicked off her shoes, and then threw herself on the bed. She sent a message

to Thompson, "Don't talk nonsense about what happened yesterday, if you do, I will try every means to

make you suffer."

When Thompson saw the message, he couldn't help frowning. She didn't believe him, but she had sex

with him so easily. "Got it," replied Thompson with a sneer.

Lying on the bed, Alice felt everything around her was unreal, as if it was a dream. But when she woke

up from the dream, she was powerless and had nothing.

She used to think that she was the happiest woman in the world, but now it seemed that it was

unreliable to put her happiness on men.

But except for men, who could give her everything she wanted. Alice suddenly sat up. She really

wanted to see what she was like now.

In the mirror, Alice looked at her haggard face, which was in sharp contrast to what she looked

yesterday. Alice couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that her face changed faster than the weather.

She sat in front of the mirror dejectedly and removed her makeup. She didn't remove her makeup well

yesterday, but washed it with water.

Lying on the bed in a daze, Alice thought whether Jacob believed her or not. She just felt upset and

confused. Why was it always difficult to guess his thought?

Not long after Thompson arrived at the company, Jacob called him.

After hearing his assistant Rick's words, Jacob was furious. No matter what Ricky said was true or not,

he would be ungracious to Thompson. The two should meet on the battleground was delayed, and

Thompson was involved in the matter of his woman again and again.

"Thompson, what do you mean?" Jacob controlled his anger. If Thompson was in front of him now,

Jacob didn't know what he would do to him.

"Why are you so angry? Yes, it's me. You must haven't expected that it was me who leaked the news of

your divorce. I just used a little trick, and your stupid girlfriend helped me get the evidence of your

divorce. " Thompson said defiantly.

"You bastard!" Jacob's voice was cold and emotionless, making people feel respectful.

"Well, are you unhappy? I'm telling you, I just want Sara to leave you as soon as possible. Let me tell

you, I will get the woman I like by all means. " Thompson snorted. He couldn't wait to see Jacob's

furious face.

"Humph, you? Let me tell you, even if Sara won't be with me again, she won't be with you, because a

scum like you doesn't deserve her at all. " Jacob's tone returned to calm. He was always like this, and

his anger dissipated quickly.

"Bastard? We are the same, but I'm not like you. Although I'm a womanizer, I dare to admit it. You just

pretend to be innocent. It's fucking disgusting. " Thompson spat and hung up the phone with more

contempt in his heart.

Hearing the busy sound in his ear, Jacob was furious again.

He slammed her phone on the table, which startled Rick and made him tremble.

"Well, you can leave now. I'll deal with it myself, and bring the documents for me to check since I

haven't been in the company recently. And inform them to hold a meeting in half an hour. " Jacob gave

orders to his new assistant Ricy. Before then, Andy would settle all these initiatively without his orders.

Jacob shook his head and decided not to miss Andy anymore.

Only when he lost him would he think of Andy's goodness. That was the nature of human nature. Jacob

put his hand on the desk and rubbed his temples. Indeed, when people were unlucky, they were like

stepping on a mine, and there were traps everywhere.

Jacob was quite annoyed. He was sure that Thompson would be his business rival in the future. He

was not sure who schemed his accident. But now he had trouble again.

Jacob stood up and walked towards the meeting room. No matter what, he had to hold the meeting first

even if the sky fell.

Jacob walked forward step by step. Although he had tried his best to walk as fast as possible, he was

not as vigorous and resolute as he had imagined. On the contrary, he looked still slow in others' eyes.

The CEO hadn't come to the company for a long time, so he had already discussed among the

employees. Some said that something had happened to his father Michael, some said that something

had happened to Jacob, some said that something had happened to Sara, and some said that

something had happened to Alice. All in all, all kinds of rumors were widely spread in the company.

But when Jacob came back to the company, the rumor suddenly stopped. No one wanted to be in the

line of fire. Everyone could say whether it was true or not, and rumors could be spread everywhere.

There was only one thing - he couldn't be known by powerful people, or he wouldn't know how he died.

So everyone pretended that nothing had happened.

As for the newly appointed Rick, he was obviously a coward who was afraid of death. He wouldn't say

anything when other employees asked him about Jacob, which made everyone think that something

was wrong with their CEO. Although it was true that something must happen, no one knew what was

going on.

Jonathan had brought Michael to the company, but the matter was still unsettled.

However, everyone found that there was still no change in Jacob. They didn't know whether they was

lucky or not.

Jacob came to the meeting room. The noisy room suddenly became quiet.

With sly light in his eyes, Jonathan said sarcastically. "Tell me, where have you been for such a long

time? Do you really want to ruin the company? "

The directors all looked solemn, as if they had reached an agreement. They all stared at Jacob.

They hadn't seen each other several days, but they had a completely new view of Jonathan. They

didn't expect that Jonathan had been tactful at this time. Jonathan was just a loser. How dare he take

himself seriously?
