Sweet Sorrow
Chapter 57 You... You Care About Me

Why would this dress which tried by Sabina show up here?

"Jim, did the person who sent the dress say anything?" Nicole asked with a frown.

After thinking for a while, Jim said, "He seems say that it's a gift from Mr. Gu. Is Mr. Gu your boyfriend?"

Nicole didn't say anything. If it was from the so-called Mr. Gu, it must be from Jacob.

But the most important thing was, wasn't Jacob abroad? How could he know what had happened in that shop and even sent someone to buy the dress? Nicole was more frightened than surprised.

She couldn't help but recall the details and wondered if she was bumped by someone Jacob knew.

"Sis, are you all right?" Seeing the unnatural expression on Nicole's face, Jim became nervous as well.

"I'm fine. Go wash vegetables, Jim. I'll take it back to my room." Nicole shook her hands and went back to her bedroom with her skirt in her arms.

She was in a daze for a while. Then she took out her phone and texted him.

It was a simple message, with only two words.

"Thank you."

After a while, Jacob replied, "I'm glad you like it."

Now Nicole was 100% sure that this dress was sent here by Jacob. But why?

Nicole thought for a while and sent another message.

"You are back?"

"Go back tomorrow," said Jacob

"How do you know which shop I'm going to? Why do you take a fancy to that dress?" Nicole typed these words and deleted them one by one before she sent them. She didn't have the courage to ask such a question.

Or was it just a coincidence?

'maybe just as Jacob wanted to buy me a gift, a man picked this one and sent it to me,' she thought?

Although it sounded a bit weird, it was possible.

At last, Nicole didn't ask any more questions. She thought, if she really had to ask, she would ask him when he came back.

At dinner time in the evening, Judy asked Jim, "sweetheart, your birthday is coming next week. Do you have anything you want?"

Nicole was surprised. "Next week is Jim birthday. I almost forget it."

"It doesn't matter. It's just my birthday. I don't want a gift." Jim continued to peel the rice, not minding it at all.

"You've worked so hard recently. I will buy you whatever you want as long as I can afford it. Never say that I don't need a present on your birthday," Judy began coquettishly

Nicole also echoed, "that's right, Jim. I will buy you whatever you want."

"Don't do this to me. I don't want anything." With red ears, Jim hurried back to his bedroom after finishing eating.

Nicole and her mother looked at each other and smiled, knowing that the boy was embarrassed to say so.

Although Nicole's family had not been rich, the atmosphere of the Du family had been very warm. Both the holidays and the birthday of the members of the Du family had been attached great importance. Due to Jim's shyness, Nicole and Judy stopped forcing him to answer. They began to consider what gifts they should give him in private.

Judy suggested sending a book. As a student, he could broaden his horizon and knowledge.

Nicole had not decided yet, but there was still a week left for Jim's birthday, she could think about what to send.

The next day, Jacob came back.

In the evening, when Nicole was cooking, she received a message from Jacob, saying that he would send a car to pick her up.

Her brother had to go to school, so he couldn't cover for her, but... As long as she could come back before her mother got up the next day, there would be no problem, Nicole thought, the she replied yes. After dinner, her mother went to bed. Nicole packed up and left quietly with her bag.

As usual, the driver stopped at the gate of the community.

Nicole got on the car out of habit. At the moment when the door was closed, she sensitively felt that something was wrong.

Reflexively, Nicole turned her head and saw there was a man sitting on the empty seat in the shadow.

It was Jacob.

"You..." Embarrassed, Nicole avoided Jacob's eye contact and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I can't come here?" Jacob asked her.

Nicole shook her head, "no, that's not what I meant. You must be tired after a long flight. You don't need to come."

Jacob stood up and came closer to her little by little. He said, "you care about me?"

The sudden intimate action made Nicole blush with shame.

Being asked like this, she was unable to answer or deny it. She was stunned and did not know what to do.

Not to mention that her heart was about to jump out of her mouth.

At a close distance, Jacob stared at Nicole. He had been missing her face all the way. He was overwhelmed by his impulse again.

He really missed Nicole's beauty.

"Well..."

Nicole was shocked by this unexpected kiss with her eyes wide open.

Jacob closed his eyes gently, and his long eyelashes covered his long and narrow eyes. Nicole could not help but froze.

It was so beautiful.

Suddenly, he bit her lip as she was lost in thought.

"Be serious."

Jacob whispered to her ears and then kissed her lips.

His deep voice was so bewitching that Nicole couldn't help but close her eyes, allowing Jacob to snatch her away.

Finally, when the car arrived at the villa, it stopped slowly and the distance between them was slightly widened. They looked at each other and saw the other gradually.

"Damn it!"

Cursed Jacob in a low voice. He took off his coat and wrapped it around Nicole, then he hugged her and got out of the car.

Nicole's face turned red. She had never thought she was so stubborn that she didn't stop Jacob's action in time, instead, she was even more flattering.

It was a shame just to think about it.

Nicole leaned her head against his chest and didn't dare to see the expressions of the driver and the servants.

Jacob went upstairs with Nicole in his arms, kicked open the door of his bedroom and threw her on the bed. "Gu..."

Nicole didn't say a complete name, but was suppressed by Jacob.

He wasn't as daunting as he was in the car. With a bit rudeness, he ripped Nicole's clothes off and clung to her. 00000
