Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 20 Don't Roust Her

After sending Alice to the hospital to clean her wound, Jacob came to the corridor and called Sara.

While Sara was reading the company's first half year report, her phone rang. It was from Jacob.

Thinking they lived under the same roof, Sara had to face him, so she cleared her throat.

"What's the matter?". Without greeting or saying anything else, Sara cut to the chase.

"Sara, this is your so-called no entanglement. Can you be more insidious? Why don't you come at me? " Jacob was almost exasperated.

Not knowing what to say, Sara asked, "what on earth is it? I don't understand."

Jacob snorted, "you don't understand. Stop pretending. Didn't you ask Bess come to the company to make trouble for Alice?"

Sara's heart sank. She asked anxiously, "is Bess all right?"

"All right?" Jacob asked in a mocking tone. You seem to care about the wrong person. Bess hurt Alice so much that Alice is in hospital. But you are still worry about your friend. You are really good!"

"Hospitalized!" Sara exclaimed in surprise.

As far as Sara knew about Bess, she wouldn't really beat Alice. After all, education was not something that a rich two generations couldn't lack.

"I know. I will go there as soon as possible. Please don't hurt Bess." Sara said calmly.

As soon as she hung up the phone, Bess called her.

"Hello, Sara. I was set up by that woman. " Bess said in an anxious tone.

"Are you okay, Bess? Jacob called me just now and he was very angry. What's wrong with Alice?" While answering the phone, Sara rushed to the hospital. Bess had gone to the hospital. After all, she was the one involved in the matter.

"I didn't expect that. I just wanted to frighten her and hoped that she wouldn't make trouble for you. I just smashed something, such as a cup or something else. But she pressed her hand on the broken glass by herself. There were only two of us in the room at that time, and there was no other person. I couldn't explain it clearly. When Jacob came in, he thought that I hurt Alice." Bess seemed to be still in shock.

"I know, Bess. Don't worry. It's good that you're fine. Wait for me. Let's talk about it later."

After hanging up the phone, a look of fatigue appeared on Sara's delicate face. When could such a torturous time end? In Sara's opinion, it's understandable that Jacob misunderstand her, but he couldn't do so to Bess.

When Sara arrived at the hospital, Bess and Jacob were standing in the corridor.

Jacob was still angry. At Sara's first sight, she could see that Jacob's eyes were red. She wondered how deep his love for a person could make him so sad. It stung Sara. It turned out that Jacob loved Alice so much. It turned out that their relation was just a contractual marriage.

With an aggrieved look on her face, Bess greeted in a low voice, "Sara."

With concern in her eyes, Sara pulled Bess behind her. She whispered, "are you okay, Bess?"

Bess shook her head.

Jacob was furious. "What do you mean by saying that?" What mistake did Alice make? Sara poured coffee on her and then asked Bess to hurt her again. All the good impression she had left in the past 4

years had disappeared. Jacob even thought with self-mockery that she was indeed the most vicious woman. Her kindness in the past was just acting according to circumstances.

"Don't pretend to care about others, Sara. Do you really think you are an actress?" Jacob sneered.

Sara's delicate face was with a cold expression. There was no answer.

"Don't think that you won't say anything. This matter is over. Let me tell you, either you accept the 3% cut in the profits of your company, or I directly withdraw the order if you don't accept it, and I reserve the right to sue Bess at any time." Jacob gnashed his teeth and said mercilessly.

Clenching her fists, Bess glanced at Jacob and said, "it's my fault today, but it's not about Sara. She doesn't know about it. You can't do this to her. Just come at me!"

"It's all because of you, Sara. Don't think that I will believe you by looking at me innocently." Jacob couldn't believe that Sara could still be so shameless to look at him with innocent and aggrieved eyes.

With a pale face and a weak voice, Sara said with difficulty, "Okay, I'll accept profit cut. Please don't roust Bess. She didn't mean it."

Bess exclaimed, "no, I won't allow it. You can't promise him, Sara."

"I can let go of Bess. You beg me." Jacob also had a pair of red eyes, with a hint of tease. From now on, he wanted the woman in front of him to feel what it meant to live in hell every day.

"Don't go too far. It's me who have done this. If you want to sue me, just do it!" Bess roared.

It was hard for Sara to believe what she had heard. Many times, she had been arrogant and almost invincible in front of Jacob, but now he asked her to beg him. If she had done it by herself, she would definitely not compromise. But Bess was different. She couldn't allow Bess to be wronged.

"I beg you." Sara almost used all her strength to say that.

Jacob smiled, as if the sun had risen from the West.

"I can't hear you clearly." He was going to crush Sara's arrogance and pulverize it.

"I beg you." Sara raised her voice, which was seen by Alice who was standing at the door. A smile appeared at the corners of her mouth. No one could be an obstacle between her and Jacob. ---She was too shocked to say a word. Since she knew Sara, she had never begged anyone. Bess blamed herself for her coldness.

Alice had walked to the front of the three, looking pitiful.

"Forget it, Jacob. Don't roust them. I'm also wrong." Said Alice in a low voice. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Such Alice made Jacob felt more pity on her. He scolded himself for not protecting her well and, and being moved by her magnanimity. Sure enough, no comparison, no harm. Jacob also looked at Alice gently, as if she was the only one in his eyes for a moment.

When he turned to look at Sara, his eyes were full of impatience. "I forgive you for the sake of Alice."

Sara almost lost her balance and fell to the ground. She managed to calm down and saw the ring on Alice's finger. It was the same as the one Jacob gave her, but Alice's finger was thicker and the ring was bigger.

Did Jacob give her the diamond ring because Alice couldn't wear it anymore. All the uneasiness overwhelmed her. It must be because he didn't want to change it, so he sent it to humiliate her!

A wave of nausea swept over Sara's stomach. When would she escape from this nightmare? Ignoring everyone's gaze, she rushed to the bathroom and vomited.

Alice followed Sara and said, "I'll go and have a look.".

Bess wanted to follow her, but Jacob glanced at her as if warning her. Bess had to stay where she was.

As soon as Sara raised her head, she saw Alice standing behind her. She couldn't help but take two steps back. She had to stay away from this dangerous woman.

"Miss Sara, I haven't seen you for a long time. You look so weak." Alice said with an evil smile.

"Thanks to you," Sara retorted.
