Jacob didn't want to see anyone else end up like Andy. Although it was not him who killed Andy, Andy
was truly dying for him.
If so, he would feel tortured in the future. Maybe he would dream about their sacrifices.
The higher one stood, the more he had to bear. As a CEO, if he couldn't take the responsibility, then
what was the difference between him and his employees?
Looking at the receding figure of assistant Cindy, Jacob also felt the wind was slightly weaker than on
the top of the building. Perhaps everything was destined, and no one could change it.
No one wanted to see tragedy happening, but tragedy was happening every day in this city. No one
wanted to feel sad, but there were always people here who were sad every day. No one wanted their
relationship to be destroyed, but no one could help when it was broken.
He was just the one who happened to suffer from one of these tragedies.
Jacob thought that this might be a real hurdle in his life. On one hand, her father was seriously ill; on
the other hand, her wife was disappointed with him. Now, his company was in a crisis.
All these happened in such a short period, and he could just stand aside and witness all these without
doing anything to improve the situation.
A feeling of predestination overwhelmed Jacob. However, Jacob was the kind of person who always
tried to fight against his destiny and walk his own way.
Jacob raised his eyes to look at the woman beside the rooftop. Maybe she thought that she would get
permanent freedom after jumping down. But Jacob would never accept that.
In Jacob's view, people came to this world to experience their lives and to explore possibilities. If one
choose to end his or her life like this, then all these possibilities were gone.
It was easy to die, and it was more difficult to choose to live. People always tend to go the easy way.
However, easy ways usually end up in regret.
Jacob stared at the woman before him. He was too far away to see her face clearly. From the very
beginning, he had already felt a strong desire of the woman to die.
The woman's words revealed her dissatisfaction with the world. To be exact, she hated the rich. She
hated not only the rich, but also the happiness of others.
It was the first time for Jacob to see such a pessimistic person, but even so, it didn't matter. As a
successful businessman. Jacob had seen all kinds of people. As for this kind of people, he would meet
them sooner or later.
But he didn't expect himself to meet such a person in this occasion. The only positive aspect for Jacob
was that as he was annoyed by her, he had no time to think about Sara and his relationship with her.
Without this woman, Jacob would never manage to control himself from missing Sara. If it weren't for
this, Jacob wouldn't know that his emotions could really be transferred.
At least at present, Jacob had temporarily forgot the helpless eyes and the hidden indifference of Sara.
The colder a person was, the more he cared about other people's indifference. After divorce, Jacob
realized how much he cared about the Sara's attitudes towards him. She could always provoke him.
It might be the human nature to provoke the one you cared about.
The woman finally came down from the rooftop slowly. Maybe her outlook on life and values would not
change in an instant, but her thoughts could. At this moment, Chloe decided not to die.
Not only because Jacob agreed to buy her a cemetery, but also because he showed some respect for
her. Why not wait until the truth came out? Now she didn't even know the reason why her husband
died.
The woman jumped to the ground of the rooftop. She knew that Jacob wouldn't walk far with ease.
Thinking that she had drew his attention in this was, she felt a little ashamed.
Maybe it was shameful to take revenge, but women were emotional. If Jacob said something rude
today, she would definitely jump down without hesitation. But he didn't!
It was precisely this kind of respect that saved Chloe. Perhaps this event had already caused
invocatable loss, perhaps others would say that she was putting on a show, or that she wanted to
threaten him for money.
Chloe didn't care about all these. At least, Jacob knew that she was not that kind of person.
Chloe walked slowly on the rooftop with her stiff legs. She didn't know that she would take so long to
walk over such a small place. She didn't know that she could recover from such an accident so quickly.
Perhaps today's conversation was insignificant to Jacob, but it was critical to Chloe. The conversation
decided whether she should stay alive or not. In the end, she chose to fight against this world again.
It's the men who was wrong, not the world. Jacob's word echoed in Chloe's ears. It was rare for Chloe
to communicate with the person like Jacob. As a result, she just judged him arbitrarily.
When people first meet someone, they would naturally judge him or her by stereotype. The process
went so smoothly that we don't even need to think about it.
Everyone had his or her own pain, and everyone had his or her own words to say. People may looked
indifferent, but most of them were just too exhausted on their own business to care about the others.
Chloe suddenly understood what Jacob had said. No one wanted to see the tragedy happen, no one
would harm you for no reason.
So she had made up her mind. She couldn't take revenge on anyone when things were unclear. She
needed to calm down first.
After a long walk, Chloe finally reached the entrance of the rooftop. Then she saw Jacob standing on
the stairs.
He was a man with tall and straight figure. He did look like an ace genius. Chloe thought to herself and
felt a bit relieved.
"Have you thought it through?" Jacob asked in a soft voice. It was clear that she won't kill herself
temporary. However, he was not sure if she was ready to embrace the new life. He was not worrying
that the woman may create more troubles for him. He just felt that as the victim of the explosion, she
deserves his respect.
"Are you happy with that?" Chloe replied with the question. If Jacob gave her an unpleasant answer,
she would rush out and jump down without hesitation.
"Do you think I should be happy?" Jacob frowned, but his tone was still calm.
"You are smart. Forget it. Since I am down here, I've decided to live on. You are right. To die is easy,
and to live on needs more courage," The woman straightened her clothes.
The wind blew so hard that she almost lost consciousness, which meant the man in front of her, known
as the CEO, naturally wouldn't have a better experience. But Jacob didn't say anything. He just stood
here and waited for her decision.
"But don't celebrate your victory too early. I still have the right to die before this case was clarified."
Chloe stood straight with warmth in her heart.
"I understand, of course you have the right to decide your own life at any time." Jacob said with his
eyes shining.
"Remember what you promised me. And I hope no one would know about our conversation." The
woman glanced at Jacob. Her eyes were not as cold as before.
"Where are you going now? I guess it will cause a sensation if you go downstairs now. At that time, the
reporters would ask you many questions, which may cause some trouble. " Jacob frowned and
expressed his anxiety.
