Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 325 Sweetness in Life

Jacob lit his cigarette and leaned his back on his Bentley. His aura was truly an eye-catcher. Every passer-by couldn't help but glance at him with so much curiosity. However, Jacob was already used to it.

When he was just 20 years old, he thought his life was in a drama, and everyone wanted to watch it. As such, he desperately showed off to others. However, Jacob had already passed that stage of his life. Now, he just wanted to be an ordinary person who enjoyed privacy.

But it was easier said than done. His life was still an open window for the eyes of many. Whatever he did, he was still being watched and judged by countless people.

Of course, people who didn't know him might felt envious of the amount of attention he gained. But maybe after being in his shoes, no one would really like to be in his situation.

People would always envy other people's lives no matter how happy they were. After all, people were not contented with what they had. But there were some people, no matter how hard their situation was, they could learn to appreciate and entertain themselves.

Jacob held a cigarette in his right hand. He blew out the smoke whilst lost in his thoughts.

While he was smoking, he saw Sara clad in her white down jacket. Despite being spring, the northern breeze was still cold. He waved at her and saw how cute her reaction was when she saw him. Shock was all over her face.

"I was afraid you wouldn't come," she said. Then, she approached him.

"I'm the one who called you. Why will I be absent?" Jacob wiggled his eyebrows and explained seriously.

"Why didn't you tell me on the phone? At least if you told me, I would have come downstairs immediately. These past few days, the company was very busy because of several new orders. It's a new year. Besides, I feel good to be busy," she said softly.

With a sweet smile, Sara held Jacob's hand. He threw the cigarette in his hand before she stood beside him.

"I warned you that I don't want you to smoke. Why are you smoking again?" Sara frowned and, like a kitten, she sniffed him hard.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help it just now." Jacob felt shy and conscious about his smell. It was the first time that he felt smoking was an awkward thing.

"So, how are you doing?" Sara glanced at Jacob and then at his side face that highlighted his perfect jawline.

Even now, she still blushed whenever she saw his handsome face.

Of course, she didn't dare admit it. She believed that actions spoke louder than words. She preferred showing her message through actions.

"Winnie made your favorite dishes today. Let's go home for dinner," Jacob softly said, afraid that Sara might saw his embarrassed face. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"Okay." Sara quickly nodded. "I miss the dishes cooked by Winnie so much. My mother said those dishes were delicious that day," she added. Excitement was evident in Sara's face.

"Well, she told me to pick you up. Get in the car so we can go home." Being a gentleman, he opened the door for her.

Sara really enjoyed the moment very much that she smiled unintentionally.

Life made them realize how important they were for each other. It was because of how life taught them that Sara felt that Jacob had finally taken her seriously.

After being with each other for a long time, Jacob became extra sweet with her. Unlike any other couple, the longer they stayed together, the more attention Jacob gave to her. It was as if his eyes were only for her. She felt grateful that Jacob gave importance to the people around him and also to the things around him.

Her eyes were full of admiration for the man she stared at.

"Is there anything wrong with my face?" he mocked when he noticed her stare.

"Nothing. I just feel like you're truly a handsome man," she uncontrollably replied so she covered her face.

"How does it feel to have a handsome husband?" Jacob asked back arrogantly with a hint of mockery in him.

The driver chuckled in his mind while driving the car.

Sara just surrendered, "I don't want to argue with you."

Jacob carefully took Sara's hand and asked, "So, how is the company? Is it doing great? When I withdrew my investments, your father forbids me from joining again."

Suddenly, her expression stiffened as she withdrew her hand. "Yeah, I agree with my father. Since you already took your investments, don't come back."

"Why are you acting like that? Are you still angry? I think you're enjoying yourself when you get angry at me." He frowned and deep inside he felt nervous.

Even with her small actions, she still affected him.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he unconsciously paid more attention to Sara recently.

"It's your fault for infuriating me every day!" Snorting, Sara raised her head.

Jacob got speechless with Sara's sudden outburst. He toned down his pride and surrendered, "Alright. Fine. It's my fault."

The driver who heard everything was so shocked. 'How could the successful Mr. Jacob be so scared of his wife?' With a snicker, he focused himself on what he was doing so that Jacob wouldn't notice him. He held back his emotions while he was at the edge of laughing his heart out.

After dinner, Sara went to the living room. She sat comfortably on the sofa and watched the TV. Meanwhile, Jacob was looking at her from afar. He couldn't help reminisce about his marriage life with her.

Time flew and everything was changing. Nonetheless, he still discovered new things about Sara even though they were together for a very long time. Jacob felt surreal.

He blamed himself for not treating Sara nicer earlier.

Sara lay on the sofa but she looked extremely elegant. Sara was laughing as she watched a TV program and the host's performance.

Her laughter was like a virus, he couldn't help but smile. Jacob got a cup of hot tea and handed it to Sara.

"Is it really so funny? What's the show about?" Jacob asked in a soft tone.

Without taking her off the TV, she sipped the tea.

"Careful, it's hot," Jacob reminded Sara before he pinched her cheeks.

The light in the room made her more attractive. Jacob knew that moment he was obsessed with her.

After Sara had noticed the gaze of Jacob, she blushed quickly and asked, "What's wrong?".

"Nothing. I just like to look at you. You always look beautiful," Jacob sweetly said.

Just like that, Sara blushed. She moved a little so Jacob can sit down. Jacob quickly sat and looked dearly at Sara.

"Why didn't I find you are so beautiful before? The more I look at you, the more I love you," he confessed. Jacob pinched Sara's chin and smiled sweetly at her.

"Maybe you have a dull taste for women before." Sara rolled her eyes.

"You are right, my lady. I will improve in that aspect. I promise to praise you every day. I'll do it until you believe me." He grinned while his hand rested on Sara's face.

"Why?" Sara curiously asked while her eyes were full of confusion.

"If I spoil you, no one will compete with me for you anymore," he answered honestly. He pinched Sara's cheeks again.

"What are you doing?"

Sara didn't know how to react. "Did you take your medicine today? You might be getting worse in the head since you're not taking your pills properly."

"Well, since you're my medicine, I take it every day. My schedule was swamped lately." Then, he leaned closer to her. Soon, their faces were a few centimeters away from each other.

"Let me tell you something. I think you're being more shameless lately." Sara blushed but kept her eyes on Jacob.

"Do you have any idea how fairy tales usually end?" he asked in a husky voice. His eyes were more charming than before.

Sara felt her heart was beating harshly.

"The prince and the princess should live a happy life from on! Hahahaha" He laughed heartily.

Sara can't disagree. Jacob had a point.

Jacob stared at her face while his mind wandered off. Sara glanced around and found out that Winnie and others were probably asleep. However, it would be embarrassing if someone went out and saw them in such a position.
