Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 148 What What Happened To Him

"Well, I see. You can do whatever you should do. Don't listen to anyone's orders and don't be afraid of their threats. I will be back in a couple of days. Okay, I see."

The next day, Nicole heard someone talking when she was in a daze.

His voice was deliberately lowered, but she could still hear it as she was a light sleeper.

Although there was not so much important content in the conversation, Nicole was still alert to listen. Because she was also confused about the motives of Jacob's sudden move this time.

"Okay, then bye."

Jacob hung up the phone and turned around. Then he saw Nicole looking at him with confusion.

"It's still early. Let's go back to sleep again."

Jacob threw his phone aside and lay down again. Holding Nicole in his arms, he closed his eyes.

He didn't know that the calmer he was, the more worried Nicole was.

"…… What happened? " Finally, Nicole couldn't help but ask Jacob.

Instead of answering her, Jacob kept silent and his eyes closed.

"I know I shouldn't ask too much. Even if I know these things, I can't do anything, but... It is making me worried if I don't know anything. "

Listening to Nicole's worried voice, Jacob felt warm in his heart. He opened his eyes, looked at Nicole and sighed.

"It's not a big deal. My family and I are having a fight."

Nicole was dubious, "having a fight?"

Jacob nodded and said, "yes. My father is still angry with me, so I have to come out for a few days."

"I see."

"Let's get some more sleep."

"Okay."

Despite her confusion, Nicole didn't ask more.

Although Nicole had never met Jacob's father, she had seen his mother. His mother Albertan was so domineering and had left a shadow indelible on fragile heart when she was young.

Therefore, when Nicole heard this from Jacob, it was easy to image that his father should be more difficult to deal with.

They didn't get up until noon. After calling in room service, Jacob and Nicole were about to go out and have fun.

After they went downstairs, they saw Bevis and Consuela sitting at the table of the hotel lobby.

"Really? You just got up at this time?" Consuela exclaimed as she checked the time on her watch.

Nicole blushed. In fact, there was nothing wrong with Consuela's question, but she felt guilty. She knew that she stayed up too late with Jacob last night, so she didn't get up.

Compared with Nicole, Jacob was much more composed.

He sat in front of Bevis and Consuela and threw a glance at Bevis. "Have you been sitting here for a long time since you got up?"

Before Bevis could say something, Consuela broke in and said, "we've been waiting for you. I heard that there's a fully equipped amusement park not far from here. We wanted to go with you, but we didn't expect that it was all morning."

By Consuela's words, Nicole's face turned to red again.

She coughed and said, "I'm so hungry. Let's order something to eat and then go to the amusement park, okay?"

"…… Fine. "

Jacob wasn't interested in amusement park, but since Nicole wanted to go, he was willing to go with her.

Consuela wanted to tease Nicole again, but Bevis noted that Nicole's face was as red as an apple, and her ears were red. He shook his head with a smile to Consuela. Consuela finally stopped teasing Nicole again.

After the four of them finished their meal, they went to the amusement park. Consuela insisted on playing all kinds of game, and even asked Nicole to go with her. As soon as they finished the round, Nicole was too tired to walk normally.

"There's a haunted house over there. Let's go in and have a try!"

Consuela reached out her right hand to tug at Nicole, grabbing the marshmallow on her left hand. Nicole started to beg for mercy, saying that she was really exhausted.

"The last one. Nicole, I promise this is the last one. Besides, getting into the haunted house isn't tiring. It's just a walk."

Nicole glanced at Bevis, "then you can ask Bevis to go with you, can't you?"

"Of course Bevis will go together! But you will go as well! Look at their promotion, if we can get to the end, we can get a free souvenir and ice-cream. I really want that ice-cream, can you go with me? "

If it was not for Consuela's passion on Bevis, Nicole wouldn't have wanted to spend so much time playing all these. Now that they had played for a long time, she had no choice but to continue with her.

Since Consuela insisted, Nicole had to agree, "Okay, I'll go with you. But it's a deal that this will be the last one. I won't try any others."

"Nicole, you are so lovely. I promise this will be the last one!"

As expected, where Nicole was, there must be a Jacob. But just when the four of them bought the tickets and were about to go in, Jacob's phone suddenly rang.

Glancing at the phone, Jacob stopped walking.

"I have to answer this phone." Jacob frowned.

Nicole was a sensible girl, so she quickly said, "it must be very noisy inside. You can wait for us outside. Don't worry about us. Bevis is with us. We can handle it."

"…… Okay, take care. "

Jacob told something to Bevis via sights. Then he left to answer the phone.

The remaining three went into the haunted house.

The haunted house was actually a long and dark road, with only a few green lights shining on the wall. The dreadful atmosphere created very good.

"Ah!" After a few steps, Consuela couldn't help but let out a scream.

Nicole was also scared. But the more scared she was, the quieter she would be. Now that She didn't say anything even if her hands were sweaty.

The haunted house was not only a horrible atmosphere, but also a lot of real objects. There were all kinds of strange things on the ground, which looked like a bony shelf or soft flesh when stepping on. From time to time, they would stretch out a bloody hand or something like their eyes in front of them.

After walking for a short distance, Consuela started to shout out as she was about to leave.

"How about we go back?" Nicole suggested.

"No way!" Consuela refused sobbing, "I haven't gotten the souvenirs and ice cream yet. I'm not willing to give up!"

At the critical moment, Bevis said arrogantly.

"If you are afraid, you can return first. I will go to the end with Nicole to get you souvenirs and ice cream." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Consuela had no objection to that. She turned to Nicole and asked, "Nicole, is that okay? Can you go with Bevis?"

Seeing that Consuela was trembling with fear, Nicole had no choice but to agree with Consuela. She said, "okay. Just wait for us outside the gate."

"Okay, I'll go now."

The haunted house had humanitarianism. They wouldn't scare those who were too scared to continue but return back to the entrance any more. As a result, Consuela quickly ran out of the house.

With a helpless smile, Bevis said to Nicole, "let's go."

Nicole nodded, "yes."

Nicole was not so afraid of the rest of the way.

She just felt it was a little strange. If Bevis was not scared, Why not got the souvenir for Consuela himself but asked her to go with him?

Besides, she had told Consuela several times that she was tired and didn't want to play any more. As a normal person, when Consuela wanted to go back, Bevis would definitely persuade her to leave with Consuela.

Did Bevis do this on purpose?

Nicole was so focused on thinking that suddenly she was scared by a black hair and a white face mask in front of her. She screamed and took a step back.

Bevis was walking behind her. As Nicole stepped back that she stepped heavily on his foot, which made him breathless.

"Sorry, sorry. I didn't mean it." Nicole apologized.

"No problem. Let's go ahead."

"Yes."

On the rest time, Nicole and Bevis walked side by side for the rest of the journey.

After getting the souvenirs and ice-cream, Nicole sat on the bench to rest, and Bevis found a detour to go back.

"Let's go. Jacob must have finished his phone,"

"Okay."

Nicole stood up and walked back with Bevis. Thinking of how nervous Jacob was when he got that phone call, she couldn't help but ask to Bevis, "well.. Do you know what happened to Jacob? "

"Don't you know?" Bevis asked Nicole in return.

"Jacob said he had a quarrel with his family." Nicole said worriedly. "But I don't think it's that simple."

Nicole kept asking, "Bevis, you know what happened, don't you?"

Bevis looked down at his feet for a long time before he looked at Nicole and asked, "do you really want to know?"

"Yes, I want to know."

"But if Jacob knows that I have told you..." Bevis looked hesitantly.

Nicole hurriedly said, "don't worry. I won't show it out. I won't tell Jacob, and I'll pretend not to know."

"…… Okay. " After hesitating for a while, Bevis said, "Jacob broke off the engagement. He was kicked out of Gu family by his father."

"What did you say? !"
