Chapter 173 A Flying Moth Darts Into The Fire
She had never said that she wanted to leave him personally before. Now, she seemed to begin to plan for herself.
They kept silent all the way, as if one more word meant one more mistake.
Some people said that love was a waste of energy. At the beginning, it may make you full of enthusiasm, create the illusion that you have endless energy. Then, as the enthusiasm was running out, it's highly possible for you to be disappointed and felt that the other part in the relationship was below your expectation.
Most people had gone through such a period, and Sara was no exception. Women were especially fond of accumulating disappointment. If the disappointment reached a line, it would be hard to continue the relationship.
The long silence made the two in the car feel that the road was endless.
But no matter how long the road was, they would finally came to an end.
From afar, Jacob saw Carlos waiting downstairs expressionlessly.
As soon as the car stopped there, Carlos rushed up and gave Jacob a punch. Jacob stumbled and fell to the ground. Bloody smell began to spread from the corner of his mouth
"Listen. I've been waiting for this day for a long time." Carlos looked sullen. His clenched fist stopped in the air. After waiting downstairs for a long time, his hands had already been frozen.
Jacob stood up, without any emotion in his heart. He had long wanted someone to wake him up.
"The punch just now was for my daughter. This punch is for myself. " Carlos rushed up and punched Jacob to the ground again.
Sara stood aside and turned her head around. She knew that Jacob would not fight back. She also knew that her father had suppressed his anger for so long and needed to vent it.
So she stood still and didn't say anything.
Jacob felt his face burning. He knew he deserved it. So when he stood up again, he just wiped his mouth, as if nothing had happened.
"Jacob, you can leave now. I don't want to see you again, so does Sara. Please stay away from us from now on. If you still want to keep some dignity, please don't disturb us. " Sara's father squinted his eyes. He finally had the chance to break up with Jacob face to face.
"Father in law I... "Jacob looked calm, as if what had just happened was insignificant.
"Don't called me that anymore. Jacob, let me tell you, there are many things in the world that can't be bought with money. Can you buy your dream with money? Can you buy love with money? " Carlos looked askance at Jacob and pulled Sara behind him. From now on, he would never let his daughter get hurt again.
Hearing father's words, Sara felt sad. It turned out that her father was the one who knew her best. But he never said anything.
Jacob was also stunned. Looking at his father's big body, he was a little absent-minded.
He had never thought that he could buy everything with money, he…
"I just hope you can forgive me. I will make up for what I have done." Jacob's eyes were bright and his tone was firm.
A gust of wind blew, and a chill seeped into his body. The mist sprayed out when speaking made each other look hazy.
Carlos stood there, with his hands clasped behind back. Behind him, Sara lowered her head, lost in thought.
"Not everything will be forgiven. You can leave now." Carlos didn't want to argue anymore. He had never thought that Jacob was superior to him. He even felt that he couldn't bear to look straight into Jacob's childish eyes.
How mature could a man be if he always bully others with his power and wealth?
"I hope you can give me another chance to take good care of Sara. I promise I won't behave like before anymore. " Jacob wiped his face, but his face was still burning.
Carlos cast a sidelong glance at Jacob and said, "I don't have decision on this. You may pray to god. Let's go home, Sara. "
After saying that, Sara turned around and walked forward. She felt a mixture of relief and sadness. It turned out that her father had always understood her and knew how suffering she was.
Jacob froze there. He had never thought that what he had done would leave such a deep wound for others.
The wind continued to blow. It was winter in the north. Jacob's hand was already frozen stiff. He took out a cigarette from his pocket.
People with a craving for tobacco usually had too much annoyances
Jacob took out a cigarette box and took out a cigarette. Jacob bowed over, put his hands to the mouth and lit up the cigarette. Sara had once said that she didn't like him to smoke the most. But now, he just couldn't control himself from smoking.
Maybe it was because the wind was too strong, or maybe his hands were trembling, he had failed to light up the cigarette several times.
After trying for several times, the cigarette was finally lighted up. He leaned against the car.
The car, which had been blown by the cold wind for a long time, was also freezing cold. But it didn't matter anyway. He felt that his heart was also very cold.
Staring blankly at the window of Sara's house, Jacob felt sad. The man she loved was right in front of her, but she felt like he was far away. He was so close yet so far from her.
It turned out that the furthest distance was not that you don't know that I loved you, but that you have already known I loved you and you were still indifferent about that.
After returning home, Sara stood at the window of her bedroom and gently drew the curtain to cover herself. She found that Jacob was still there.
Seeing his figure, Sara was a bit moved and felt warm in her heart. On such a cold day, Jacob was standing there in the cold wind.
Perhaps what his father said just now was a little harsh, but in her opinion, it was nothing compared to the harm Jacob had caused to her.
People always loved each other deeply and hurt each other deeply.
Looking at Jacob quietly, Sara wanted to call him. Human was such a strange animal. The more they wanted to forget, the more they could not help recall.
Maybe… Sara was just disappointed. Her once lively emotions were now like a pool of stagnant water, which was unpredictable.
She gently put down the curtain and walked towards the bed.
On the bedside table, there was still a photo of Jacob and her. In the photo, she laughed happily, and Jacob always kept a straight face. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Sara just watched the photo quietly. No matter how sad and disappointed she was, there was always something she couldn't let go.
These were the beautiful memories of the past.
In the photo, the two of them were standing on a wooden raft. Sara still remembered the beautiful scenery around that day.
It was a sunny spring day. They have travelled together to many places. She was like a beauty stepping out from the painting, sitting on the boat and listening to the rain.
They seemed to stay in the fairyland. The water in the river was clear and the water plants in the river could be witnessed. Sara would never forget about the beauty of the land of fish and rice
It seemed that the trip in their honeymoon was like a dream. At that time, Sara still had high expectations for Jacob.
She thought it was just a matter of time before he could be a more suitable person for her. Later she realized that if there was someone else in his heart, no matter how long they lived together, nothing would really change.
Sara realized that she was just a flying moth darts into the fire. She finally gained nothing, just got herself burnt.
Thinking that Bess's wedding was getting closer and closer, she became more and more calm.
She was still scared at the thought of Thompson. There were always some people trying to hurt her, and Thompson was on the top of the list.
In another room, Carlos glanced at Jacob, who was still standing downstairs. He know that he had gone too far just now, but he couldn't suppress his anger. He had endured him for too long.
Jacob didn't know how long he had stayed downstairs. It might be a few hours or longer.
He only remembered that she had smoked one cigarette after another, and he had no idea about how many cigarettes he had consumed. The smoke swirled around him, making him unable to see everything in front of him clearly.
Maybe only by numbing himself could he feel better.
It seemed that he had never smoked so much and the cold wind had never been blowing for so long. This time, everything was abnormal for him.
If there was a shackle in Sara's heart, the attitude of Carlos would be another shackle for Jacob.
These shackles were locking the hearts and were difficult to unlock.
Jacob heard the phone kept ringing in the car, but he was not in the mood to answer it.
He had no emotion, no energy and no enthusiasm to deal with anything else. He was like a puppet without thoughts deserted in the cold wind.
Finally, Jacob took out his phone. The ringtone kept ringing, making him feel noisy.
