Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 352 I Have To Admit It

Hearing this, Jacob became a little impatient. He couldn't talk about what Alice had done. However, if the child was really his, Jacob would feel guilty.

People were always so contradictory. Once something happened that was related to him, he couldn't complain. No matter how unreasonable it was, he had to deal with it. Now, his mind was flooded with many thoughts. It wasn't as simple as accepting the child and taking on his role as the child's father.

He once had to tell Michael that he and Alice had gotten married to pacify him. Naturally, at the time, Sara was fuming with anger. Now that Alice was really pregnant, Jacob couldn't even begin to think of the consequences. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Jacob rubbed his face and said in a low voice, "I see."

Cindy went out and looked at Jacob. Her face was full of concern. She could understand how he was feeling. It was something she learned while working for him.

Of course, Cindy was on Jacob's side. However, as a woman, she sympathized with Alice.

That's why when Alice begged her to tell Jacob, she couldn't bring herself to refuse. She felt it was her duty as a woman to help her. On top of all of the confusion, Cindy felt the most sorry for Sara.

Everything was in shambles. Jacob's mind was in such a mess, he could barely think straight. How did all of this happen, and why did it only surface now?

He hadn't been with Alice in so long. Why did she choose to tell him she was pregnant now? Jacob frowned. The image of Sara's melancholy face kept flashing in his mind. He was filled with guilt and sorrow. He didn't know what to tell her.

At that moment, Jacob felt like he was being consumed with loneliness. It did not seem like such a big issue, but it would really change a lot of things.

After a long time, Jacob headed back to his office. He planned to tell Sara that evening. He kept playing out the scenario in his mind. However, no matter how many times he rehearsed it, he still wasn't ready to tell her.

'What a mess, ' he thought.

The unknown was terrifying to some. Although Jacob felt that he was a brave man, he had to admit the situation frightened him. He was afraid that Sara would be disappointed and would never forgive him.

He loved her deeply, and he couldn't bear the thought of losing her. He also felt that Alice had set him up.

However, he couldn't bring himself to hate her. Rather, he felt guilty about the whole situation.

Even though Alice betrayed him first, he had abandoned her.

That afternoon, Jacob headed to Sara's office to pick her up. The moment Jacob saw her, he was overwhelmed with guilt.

He didn't want to hurt her, and he was certain she would be hurt by the whole situation.

He watched as Sara walked to his car. It was as if a bullet was ripping through his heart. He swallowed, and he felt his stomach churn.

For a moment, Jacob did not want to tell Sara. However, deep inside, he hoped she would understand and be with him as he went through this.

Perhaps it was too hopeful of him to wish for such a thing. But, he knew he would wait for Sara, no matter how long it took.

When Sara got to the car, she froze. The moment she saw the look on Jacob's face, she knew something was wrong.

"What happened?" Sara studied Jacob. She saw that one of his hands was behind his back, so she took it to see if he was hiding anything.

It was empty. Sara began to feel anxious.

"What's wrong? What happened? Why do you look like this?" Sara looked at Jacob nervously, but he didn't say anything.

"Has something happened to the company again?" She looked at him firmly, her big eyes blinking anxiously.

"Let's get in the car first." Without saying anything else, Jacob went around to open the door for Sara. The chauffeur wasn't on duty, so Sara felt even stranger. If Jacob was the one driving them, he must have something to talk about.

It was obvious that something major had happened.

She smoothed out her clothes and took a look at Jacob. He seemed unhappy, and there was a serious air about him. Soon, Sara herself became unhappy. It was easy to get affected by someone else's mood.

Jacob wanted to back down. If he told Sara now, he was certain she would get out of the car. Jacob knew what kind of person Sara was. However, it was not her fault. Her reaction would be totally valid, and Jacob felt guilty about the whole thing.

He debated about whether or not he should tell her. He knew, however, that she would find out about it sooner or later. Jacob frowned. The uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach kept growing and growing,

and his heart was heavy.

Sara looked at Jacob in a daze. The last time he had been as silent as he was now, he had kicked her out of the villa.

The weather was not good that day, too. Sara could still remember it all. 'Why does Jacob look so sad? What has happened?'

Sara felt like she couldn't breathe. He must be hiding something major from her. He was purposely keeping things a secret, and she couldn't bear it.

Sara didn't say a word and kept her head down. She kept wringing her hands and looking at them over and over again. Jacob looked at Sara from the corner of his eye, as if he knew what she was thinking.

He decided to take her home first before telling her.

As Alice gazed upon the city, she was anxious. She could see many faces outside, but none of them were familiar, so they offered her very little comfort.

Several hours had passed since she had called Jacob's assistant. She hadn't slept all night. At dawn, she moved a chair and sat by the window.

In fact, there were some things that Alice already knew. If Jacob really loved her, how could things turn out like this? If he still had even just the slightest bit of love for her, he wouldn't have sent her abroad.

It was Jacob's decision that they should break up completely, but why? Why did he choose to abandon her completely? Why was he no longer in love with her?

Alice knew that she had made a mistake. However, she still loved him. It was Jacob who called things off, and he was adamant about never getting back together again.

Alice lowered her head. She was in low spirits. Perhaps it was because she had stayed up all night.

She touched her belly, and a bitter smile crept up on her face. Jacob had to decide whether or not the baby could be born.

If Jacob really loved her, he wouldn't say anything to hurt her. However, the most terrible thing would be if he ignored her completely. 'Would he do that?

Did Jacob know she had an affair with Thompson?' Alice was scared. It was a possibility. After all, he had sent her abroad without any second thoughts.

Did Jacob take this relationship seriously? Alice touched her belly once more and felt cold. She couldn't figure out the answer. Perhaps some things were better off unasked.
