Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 224 Accept The Question

Not only Jacob, but also Nicole was very nervous. She didn't worry that Jacob would say something wrong or his attitude was not good enough to make her mother angry. She was worried that what if her mother would blame Jacob on purpose.

Compared with Nicole, Judy was much calmer. With the porridge made by Nicole in her hands, she finished it slowly. Then she sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV.

Nicole walked back and forth anxiously in the living room, uneasy and uneasy.

"Okay, stop walking. It's killing me." Judy rolled her eyes at Nicole and complained.

"…… Okay. " Nicole sat down on the sofa nearby, clenched her fists and put them on her legs. She was so nervous that her calves were trembling.

Seeing this, Judy had no choice but to say softly, "I won't eat him. Why are you so nervous?"

Nicole answered honestly, "I I'm afraid you'll make things difficult for him. "

"What? Shouldn't I make things difficult for him?" Judy said on purpose, "he kidnapped my daughter and hid it from me together with you. His mother even came to my house and made me hospitalized. I..."

Being exposed like this, Nicole had to interrupt her mother and said timidly, "Okay, okay, it's his pleasure."

"Ding -"

The doorbell rang.

Nicole jumped up from the sofa, "I'll open the door!"

Judy also put on a serious look and held her breath.

"Here you are." When Nicole opened the door and saw the face of Jacob behind it, she was nervous but relieved.

Jacob and Nicole looked at each other, the he nodded and walked into the room with the boxes. When she saw Judy sitting on the sofa not far away, he immediately bowed respectfully and greeted, "Hello, auntie. I'm Jacob Gu."

"Hello." Judy also stood up, greeted her in a lukewarm manner and said, "come and have a seat."

"Okay."

Jacob walked over, he sat down after Judy sat down, "I don't know what to buy. I just bought some health care products. I also prepared some for Jim. They are good for his brain development. I hope you like them."

"Thank you for your concern." Judy still looked indifferent. She turned to Nicole and ordered, "Nicole, go and make a cup of tea for Jacob. He must be thirsty after driving all the way here."

"It's okay, auntie. I'm not thirsty."

Jacob was modest. Although he was arrogant and noble, his arrogance and respect were suppressed, which made him more precious. Even the most picky mother-in-law couldn't find fault with him.

What's more, Judy was a gentle woman in nature. If it wasn't for her daughter's happiness and future, she wouldn't treat others with a cold face.

"Here comes the tea. Have some." Nicole made a cup of tea and put it on the table in front of Jacob. Then she stood aside and kept silent.

"Have some." Judy added.

"Okay," Jacob answered. Then he picked up the cup, blew away the tea leaves floating on the water and took a sip. Putting down the teacup, he looked at Judy and asked earnestly and apologetically, "aunt, are you feeling better?"

"…… Much better. "

Jacob didn't retreat because of Judy's cold tone, nor was he angry. He continued, "I owe you an apology for this matter. It's my fault that I didn't deal with it properly and thoughtlessly. I had a conflict with my mother regardless of anything. My mother came to you because of anger and rashness. It's really troublesome for you."

His words were very appropriate. Without being noticed, he blamed himself for his mother's mistakes and clarified what her mother had done.

Judy heard it clearly, but she didn't argue. She smiled faintly and said, "forget it. It's all in the past. I believe that your mother didn't mean to do that. Besides, she was in a fit of anger at that time, so it's inevitable that she spoke in a low voice."

"…… Yes. "

Jacob stole a glance at Nicole. It seemed that Judy wasn't mean to him. She was smiling, and she would take what Jacob said, but in fact, it was more difficult. It was like a soft sponge, and anyone who hit it would feel powerless.

"Jacob, you came so early. Have you had breakfast yet?" Judy asked again.

"I came in a hurry and didn't have time to eat. But it doesn't matter. I'm not hungry. I usually have breakfast and lunch together."

As soon as Jacob finished his words, Judy told Nicole, "Nicole, go to the kitchen and make some breakfast. It's not good for his health if young people don't eat breakfast. You should eat on time." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Okay, I'll do it."

When Nicole went into the kitchen, there were only two people left in the living room, one was Jacob and the other was Judy. Jacob guessed in his mind that Judy must have something to talk to him when she sent Nicole away. So he took a sip of tea and waited.

Sure enough, Judy said. Her tone suddenly became estranged.

"Jacob, you are from a rich family with excellent conditions. You have a lot of choices. Why do you choose my Nicole? Even if you had an early love, it was a long time ago. At that time, you were not mature and there was no answer for the matter of love. Right? "

Judy's expression was very serious, and so did Jacob. He sat upright and listened carefully. After hearing Judy's question, he sorted out his thoughts and nodded with a smile.

"Auntie, you are right. According to the current popular standard, I do have a good condition and have a lot of choices. But for me, those external things are not important. What I value more is the inner quality. Besides, Nicole and I were forced to break up because of misunderstandings. That relationship is of great significance to my life and has a far-reaching impact on me. It can't be simply said to be immature or something long ago, as if it doesn't matter. "

"Even so, you are much better than Nicole now. The status gap between you two is huge. How can you live for so long in the further?"

Hearing this, Jacob smiled with a hint of relief and firmness.

"I'm very happy that Nicole and I were together before we knew how to plot against each other. I love her and she loves me. It's better that that we don't take those conditions as additional value, nor measure each other with those conditions."

Standing in the kitchen with a plate in her hand, Nicole heard the conversation between Jacob and her mother clearly. She couldn't help but want to cry when she heard what Jacob said in his most sincere and pleasant voice. Her eyes got red.
