Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 201 A Computer Was Bought

"You can go home first. I'm going to the company." When the car arrived at the gate, Jacob said to Nicole.

Without thinking too much, Nicole said goodbye to Jacob and went upstairs with her luggage. Watching Nicole walk away, Jacob took out his phone and dialed the number of the person he had arranged to investigate.

"Investigate Consuela. Tell me more details."

"Yes, Mr. Jacob."

While on the phone, Jacob ordered with a poker face.

"Drive to the company."

After visiting Consuela, Nicole had been restless all the time. She always thought of Consuela's pregnancy and couldn't rest assured at all.

If she hadn't worked hard, the video quality would have been affected.

In such a state of uneasiness, Nicole forgot her promise.

Until——

Jim called.

"Sister, I ranked first in the final exam of the semester."

"Really? Great! " Nicole praised him excitedly, "you're awesome, Jim. Why is my brother so awesome?"

Jim smiled shyly, "well, not bad."

"It's not 'not bad'. It's very good. You did a good job this time. Is mom very happy? "

"Yes, Mom said she would make dumplings for me tonight. She just went to buy some meat." Jim replied obediently.

Hearing this, Nicole wanted to go home at once, but she had made a plan to shoot a video, so she could not go back at this time. She could only express her regret verbally.

"Jim, I'll celebrate it for you some other day."

"Okay, sister. We are having our winter vacation." Jim said with a smile. "We don't have to go to the school after we go and get the notice in two days."

Nicole nodded, "then stay at home and help mom with more work."

"Yes, I will. Sister I... "

"What?"

"It's Well You said... " Jim swallowed and spat for a while, but he couldn't say anything.

"What did I say?" Nicole was confused.

Jim sighed, "nothing. Forget it."

"Don't do that. What did I say? Tell me. I can't remember anything for a while."

"Nothing. Mom is back. I'm going to help her."

After saying that, Jim hung up the phone. Hearing the busy tone from the other end of the phone, Nicole was extremely confused.

What on earth did her brother want to say?

This question kept haunting Nicole until dinner time.

She couldn't guess what her brother wanted to say, so she called her mother Judy. Judy picked up the phone and told Nicole the good news that Jim had a good performance in the exam.

Nicole smiled and praised her brother again.

Then she asked Judy, "Mom, it seems that Jim wants to say something to me, but he is too embarrassed to say it. Do you know what he wants to say?"

"He just wants you to buy him that computer. I've told him that he doesn't need a computer at his age. Don't spoil him. so don't buy him one. "

Hearing what Judy said, Nicole suddenly remembered.

She had forgotten about it!

In order to motivate her brother, she asked him to study hard and bought him a new computer as a reward after the winter holiday.

Her brother called her today happily. He must want to talk about this!

"Mom, I know." Nicole was instantly happy.

After hanging up the phone, Nicole picked up a piece of braised pork and asked Jacob with a smile, "I want to buy Jim a computer. Do you have any recommendation?"This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Jacob took a look at the braised pork in his bowl and put it into his mouth. After eating it, he asked slowly, "what does he mainly use for?"

Thinking of what her brother had said at that time, Nicole said, "I don't know. It seems that he likes playing computer very much. He said that he likes computer technology?"

"Doesn't he like computer games?"

"Of course not." Nicole denied, "Jim is not that kind of playful child. He knows what's going on in our family. He won't be so ignorant. I think he really likes computer. He just likes it. "

Jacob said indifferently, "then buy one for him."

"Of course I will buy one for him. I'm just asking for your opinion." Nicole looked at Jacob with a flattering smile and said, "don't you boys know a lot about this field? Can you recommend one?"

"Let me think about it."

"Okay, I can wait!" Hearing what Jacob said, Nicole was sure that Jacob would help her pick up one. She was so happy that she added some meat into his bowl.

Jacob quietly looked at the meat in his bowl and felt jealous.

Why wasn't she so considerate when she was asking anything from him? As she needed help from him for his brother, she started such considerate all of a sudden?

Humph.

This idea just flashed through his mind. As a man, Jacob also liked computer very much. If he hadn't become a businessman, he might have become a computer technician.

Nowadays, the Internet had developed well, and it had become a necessity in people's life. Grasping such a technology was the key to open a new era.

Therefore, although Jacob was jealous that Nicole cared so much about his brother, he approved Jim's hobby.

Jacob searched on the Internet and selected a computer he thought was okay. And then he ordered it.

On the next day, when Nicole was making cakes at home, she received a computer for home delivery.

Nicole was a little shocked, but on second thought, she knew that the computer must be bought by Jacob. She put it aside and dialed his number directly.

"What's the matter?" Jacob lowered his voice, as if he was busy with something else.

"The computer was just delivered. Did you buy it?" Not daring to waste Jacob's time, Nicole asked in a hurry.

"Yes," replied Jacob.

"Why did you buy it directly? I planned to buy it myself. I..."

"I have something else to do. Bye."

However, before Nicole could finish her words, Jacob hung up the phone directly.

Nicole sighed, but when she looked down at the computer box on the table, she was in a good mood again. As picked up by Jacob, It must be a good choice.

At the worst, she could just give the money to Jacob.

Thinking of this, Nicole opened the outermost packing box, intending to take out the computer box first.

When she opened the box, a pile of paper items fell out. She opened it carefully and found that it was a printed item price list and an invoice.

The price of the computer was written on the invoice.

Fifteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.
