Sweet Sorrow
Chapter 228 She will be Mrs. Gu in the future

"Nicole... I... " Bevis wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought. He didn't notice that the expression on Michelle's face had changed. She had become so nervous and terrible. Frightened by such an expression, Nicole was about to leave when she felt her waist tightened.

"What are you talking about?" Jacob hugged Nicole and asked.

"

"Mr. Jacob. I'm sorry. I... "

"Are you going to leave?" Jacob interrupted her greeting and said to Bevis indifferently.

......

.." Michelle was embarrassed, but she didn't dare to get angry or question Jacob. If she hadn't been with Bevis, she wouldn't have come to this occasion, let alone talk to Jacob. Bevis nodded, "I'm leaving. Let's meet some other day."

"Okay."

"See you." Bevis left first. Not only didn't he help Michelle out, but he also ignored her. Michelle gritted her teeth and ran after him.

Watching the two leaving, Nicole was speechless.

"What's wrong?" He asked Nicole.

Nicole said helplessly, "I used to think she was bad and scheming. Now it seems that she is also pitiful. She tried every means to grab other people's boyfriend, but she did not get love." Jacob didn't take it seriously. He said coldly, "Poor people must have hateful points. She deserves it. She can't blame anyone else."

"Yes, so it's more pathetic."

With a sigh, Nicole looked at him affectionately and asked gently, "What about you? Can you still hold on?"

"I don't know. I have to." Jacob looked indifferent, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Nicole put her palm on his finger and said seriously, "Don't be afraid. I'll be with you."

"Okay."

David died in a car accident all of a sudden. The burden on Jacob's shoulder was much heavier than Nicole had imagined. Nicole hadn't seen him for nearly a week since the funeral.

She knew Jacob was busy, so she seldom contacted him. She learned the latest news about Jacob through watching news and gossips.

After the accident, Mrs. Judy knew that Nicole was sad. Even when she saw that Nicole sighed sadly because of Jacob, she didn't say anything bad about Nicole. "Nicole? Nicole?"

"What?" Realizing what had happened, Nicole looked at her mother in panic.

Mrs. Judy took the basket from Nicole's hand and said helplessly, "what are you thinking about? The vegetables are almost crushed by you."

Nicole looked down at the messy vegetables made by her unconsciously and apologized to her mother, "sorry, I didn't notice..."

"Are you worried about him?" Mrs. Judy picked up the crumpled vegetables and threw them into the trash can, asking Nicole. "Yes..." Nicole admitted.

"Since you are so worried, you can go there by yourself."

Nicole hesitated, "but I can't help him in any way. If I go there, I will bring him trouble..."

"It may cause trouble, but if you don't go, he won't feel your worries and concern for him." Mrs. Judy pushed Nicole] to the chopping block, pointed at the flour in the bowl and said, "this dish can't be fried. Make dumpling filling. Make some dumplings, and send them to him later. He must be very busy now and doesn't remember to eat well." "Okay!" Encouraged by her mother, Nicole cheered up immediately and began to make dumplings for Jacob.

When the dumplings were almost ready, Nicole sent a message to Jacob, asking him where he was now. To Nicole's surprise, he answered that he was at the main house of the Gu family.

The news made Nicole flinch.

Since Jacob was in the main house of the Gu family, he would certainly have dinner. She didn't need to send dumplings specially. Besides, Albertan certainly didn't want to see her. At this time, she didn't want to cause trouble to Albertan who had lost her husband. After Nicole told her mother her thoughts, her mother put forward a different opinion. She put dumplings into the heat preservation box and said to Nicole, "since you have made it, of course you have to take it. It's one thing whether he eats or not, and it's another thing whether you cook it or not."

"But... his mother..."

"Don't think too much." Mrs. Judy

put the lunch box into Nicole's hand and said, "now that you have decided to be with Jacob, you will be a member of their family sooner or later. You will face her sooner or later. There is nothing to escape from."

Nicole took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes, I can't hide at this time."

"That's good." Mrs. Judy patted on Nicole's shoulder to cheer her up, "In addition to those family backgrounds, they are also human beings. They will also be sad and need comfort." "Thank you, mom." Nicole was moved by her mother's support. She was really touched that her mother could be so generous to forget the past and think for her and the Gu family. Perhaps only those who really experienced the pain of losing their family could understand the pain, and could show more sympathy and tolerance to give care.

Half an hour later, Nicole arrived at the main house of Gu family.

"Hello, I'm looking for Jacob." Nicole greeted the guard politely. "Please wait a moment."

The guard turned his head and reported to someone on the intercom. While reporting, he looked up and down at Nicole and described the characteristics to the person on the other end of the intercom. Being stared at by the guard, Nicole felt very uncomfortable. She tried hard not to listen to him and said unexpectedly, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Gu refused to meet guests. Please come again another day." "Ah But I..."

"Please come another day. I'm

sorry." Although the guard was not

arrogant, he was also very

contemptuous. It seemed that he had taken Nicole as a passer-by who wanted to get benefit from the Gu family.

Nicole had no choice but to step back a little and took out her phone to call Jacob.

When he was arguing with his mother about his father's car accident, he received a call from Nicole. Gritting his teeth, he left the living room and walked to the balcony to answer the phone. "What's wrong?"

Her stiff tone made Nicole a little embarrassed, but since she had come, there was no reason to go back. She bit the bullet and said to Jacob, "well, I'm outside you house. ought you something to eat."

I

Jacob felt warm in his heart and softened his tone, "Have you come in?"

"Not yet..." Taking a look at the cold guard, Nicole said with lingering fear, "The guard said that your mother refused to meet guests today. I..."

"Wait a minute. I'll pick you up." Said Jacob, striding out.

"Okay..."

Under the watchful eyes of the guards, Nicole hung up the phone and smiled awkwardly, waiting for Jacob.

Two minutes later, Jacob showed up.

"Mr. Jacob." The guards bowed in unison.

With a slight nod, he strode towards Nicole and held Nicole's hand, "have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No, I just arrived." Shaking the food box in her hand, Nicole smiled and said, "have you eaten yet? I made dumplings. Would you like some?"

"Okay." Jacob walked into the house with Nicole in his arms. When he passed by the guard with his head down, he suddenly stopped.

Not knowing why Jacob suddenly stopped, Nicole turned to look at him in confusion.

He glanced at the guards and said in a low voice, "She will be Mrs. Gu in the future. She can go in and out freely. Don't stop her."

"Yes..."

Being called Mrs. Gu in front of so many people, Nicole felt a little shy and embarrassed. After all, she hadn't been here before. It was reasonable for the guards not to know her to stop her.

"If you don't eat now, the dumplings will be cold." Said Nicole in a low voice, tugging at Jacob's sleeve.

"Okay, let's go." Jacob then withdrew his sight, held Nicole in his arms and walked into the house.

It was not until they went far that the guard who had stopped Nicole let out a long sigh of relief. God knew how much cold sweat he had sweated in just a few seconds.

It was not because he was blind, but this future Mrs. Gu dressed too low-key and simple! ☐☐☐☐
