Sweet Sorrow
Chapter 40 I'll Take Care Of You

The girl could easily recognize that the room card belonged to a five-star hotel on the top floor, and she replied "yes" in a low voice to Frank. She helped Jacob get out of the door of the bar and take the elevator to go upstairs. Frank squinted when he saw them leaving.

Others might not know, but he was clear that it was he who pushed the tide at the moment.

Jacob was upset because of a girl. So he said it deliberately to humiliate Jacob. Then he arranged a girl come here to divert Jacob's attention. And everything would be clear if Jacob would got drunk.

As for the reason why he did it, it was very simple.

Jacob grew up with him. They were the strongest among his peers. Others didn't know, but he knew exactly what happened years ago.

That woman almost destroyed his buddy's life.

He didn't recognize the woman when she came to the bar last time. After all, it had been a long time since he saw her last time, and he didn't have the slightest idea of her appearance. Even if thinking Jacob was a little abnormal, he thought that Jacob must have something on his mind.

A few days ago, he wanted to ask Jacob out for dinner, but he was refused by Jacob over and over again. Then he vaguely heard from Jacob's driver that Jacob was having a date with the woman named Nicole.

At that time, he was curious about who could attract his best friend like this. So by the way, he checked it. He did not expect that it was still the girl at that time!

Frank knew well about Jacob. Although Jacob had been with other women these years, he had never fallen in love with anyone of them, which was enough to show his stubbornness.

However, his understanding for Jacob didn't mean that he could let the relationship between Jacob and that girl go on like this. Frank couldn't bear to see his best friend being hurt and tortured by love again. Therefore, when Frank heard that Jacob was in a bad mood, he arranged this party tonight for Jacob at once.

He did all these just to make Jacob give up his obsession with Nicole!

Jacob knew nothing that Frank was trying to do something for him. He stumbled on the soft bed, head blank.

"Mr. Jacob, it's not comfortable to sleep in this way."

Seeing that Jacob was so drunk, the girl exerted all her strength to push him to one side.

Then Jacob slapped the girl's hand away.

The girl stared at him. Although drunk, Jacob was still as handsome as the movie star. She watched him for a while, then bit her lips as if she had made up her mind and walked into the bathroom.

"Wolf heart How ungrateful you are!" The drunkard Jacob seemed to dream of something or think of something. With his eyes closed, he shouted angrily in the air.

Unfortunately, no one heard it.

In less than half an hour, the girl walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. She was still young, and her skin was white and delicate. Because she had just taken a bath, she seemed to be still steaming. "Mr. Jacob."

The girl walked to the bedside, gently slide her fingers across Jacob's face and stopped at the loosened tie.

As long as she could be with this man, she wouldn't have to worry about the rest of her life.

What's more, Who her sisters had served was always a middle-aged bald man. She felt that she was so lucky.

To her surprise, the first man was such an unattainable man.

The girl's face showed an excited and excited smile, like a little girl in love. Just daydreaming alone, her face slowly turned red.

Staring at the handsome face in front of her for a while, she began to unbutton Jacob's shirt with her trembling finger.

Unfortunately, when she started to unbutton the first button, her wrist was caught.

"What are you doing?" She didn't know when Jacob opened his eyes. He was staring at the girl coldly, which made her shiver.

"I I will take care of you." The girl was too scared to speak smoothly.

Jacob snorted. The coldness in his eyes almost froze the girl. "Get out of here. Don't touch me."

"Yes..."

After all, it was her first time to be entangled by a man. She was not as shameless as those women who had been hanging around for a long time. After being scolded, she immediately got out of bed in a hurry and ran out of the room without taking her clothes. "Well..." It was so hard for Jacob to turn over. He fell asleep again with the pillow in his arms.

It seemed that he was not the one who was sober just now.

In fact, he was not very sober. The reason why he stopped a girl to harass him just now was out of instinct, and it was a conditioned response after the training for survival of the Gu family.

As long as a stranger came close to him after he fell asleep, he could immediately break free from the dream and ensure his safety.

Unfortunately, that girl thought that Jacob didn't want her. She felt bad and cried for a long time.

--

Nicole didn't sleep well last night. Nightmare after nightmare almost devoured her, but she was still trapped in the nightmare and unable to wake up.

The pain forced her to calm down early in the morning. She screamed and woke up, sweating all over.

After waking up, Nicole was not sleepy at all. She went to the bathroom and prepared a bathtub of water to warm up her cold sweat and fear.

After having a hot bath, she felt so comfortable that it was dawn.

Nicole put on her clothes and opened the bedroom door. The servant standing beside her asked her what she would like for breakfast.

"Isn't Jacob here?" Nicole asked gloomily.

The servant shook her head and answered, "no, he didn't come back yet last night."

"Okay, I see. I don't want to have breakfast. I'm going to bed." Nicole ordered the servants to leave and went back to the bedroom to rest her head on the bed, with her arms around her legs. She couldn't see the expression on her face, but she knew that it was not that good-looking.

She was wondering whether Jacob was with another woman.

Last night, Jacob was so angry that he might turn around to another gentle place for comfort and stay there overnight.

However, what made Nicole depressed was that even if the fact was as she thought, she could do nothing about it.

She had to be only responsible for him staying in the Jacob's house, because Jacob bought her. But in contrast, Jacob could buy a lot of women.

She had no right to ask whether Jacob was with someone else.

She was not reconciled.

Nicole sat there with her arms around her knees for a while. The sun shone through the window and into the bedroom.

Bu Jacob still hadn't come back yet.

Well, she didn't have to wait any longer.

Nicole smiled with self mockery, picked up her bag and left the villa.

This time, she didn't get a driver to send her back since Jacob wasn't at home.

Nicole walked along the road. The sun was shining on her bare neck, which made her feel a sharp pain..
