Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 72 Where Shall We Go

The closer Jacob approached, the tighter Nicole's hand holding the spoon became. She became nervous unconsciously.

She was not only nervous, but also embarrassed.

As soon as she saw Jacob, she remembered how she had threatened him yesterday. She couldn't help blushing.

Jacob seemed to be expressionless. He pulled out the chair and sat down in front of Nicole.

When the servants served the dishes, they started to eat silently. The whole villa was very quiet. Only the sound of tableware colliding with each other could be heard.

Under this atmosphere, Nicole really had no appetite. She was afraid that she should talk to Jacob awkwardly if she stopped eating, so she slowly ate the soup with a spoon, just like eating some delicious food.

In fact, if she wasn't worried about provoking Jacob, she even wanted to get up and leave directly.

About half an hour later, Jacob finally put down his knife and fork and wiped his mouth with the napkin on the plate.

Seeing that Jacob finished eating, Nicole felt relieved secretly.

She was going to vomit if she continued to eat.

Jacob stood up and went upstairs without saying a word, not even a glance at her.

It was not until he disappeared that Nicole put down her fork and felt relieved.

"Miss Du, do you need more soup?" A servant went up to her and asked.

Nicole shook her head. "No, No. I'm already very full."

At first, Nicole felt lucky that Jacob ignored her. After all, she was also dissatisfied with him and was not in the mood to deal with his needs.

But after three days, Nicole was no longer grateful, and began to feel a little bit upset.

Although she didn't expect Jacob to do anything to her, now he neither talked to her nor looked at her. Even if they accidentally looked at each other, he would look away without any expression.

She felt very uncomfortable when she saw such a reaction, especially when she found out that Jacob still slept in the same bed with her at night. It was like there was a sea between the two in the same bed, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

But Nicole was a thin skinned girl. Even if she was upset, she wouldn't mention it to Jacob.

So they ignored each other for a week. On the weekend, Nicole thought for a long time. She gritted her teeth and decided to wait for Jacob to return to the villa and then tell him that she wanted to go home.

However, Jacob didn't came. Instead, the driver who was sent by Jacob to pick her up appeared in front of her and reminded her to wear her ID card. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Excuse me, where are we going now?" After getting in the car, Nicole asked the driver in confusion.

The driver answered without looking sideways, "to see Mr. Jacob."

Nicole still wanted to ask why, but she saw that the driver was not very happy to say more, so she stopped.

The car drove into the airport and stopped in front of the airport's gate.

A man opened the car door from the outside and gave a gesture of "please". Nicole got off the car, but she didn't understand why.

"Hello, Miss Du. I'm Mr. Jacob's assistant. Mr. Jacob is waiting for you inside."

"……"

Nicole followed her assistant into the VIP reception room through the crowd, walking on the red carpet.

"Miss Du, give me your ID card. I'll go through the registration formalities for you."

"Thank you."

After the assistant left, there were only Jacob and Nicole left in the room.

Jacob was holding a cup of coffee and reading data on the computer seriously.

Nicole sat there for a while. Then her assistant came back with her boarding pass.

"Miss Du, this is your boarding pass."

Nicole took her boarding pass and saw the destination written on it. She frowned and looked at Jacob.

Jacob didn't even look up, as if Nicole was not here.

'forget it!' thought Nicole.

Anyway she needed to go wherever it was.

The assistant stood there with hands dropped. Half an hour later, The assistant reminded Jacob to get ready for boarding.

Jacob stood up.

"Let's go."

Nicole hurried to stand up, glanced at the assistant who was taking the computer and files, and quickly caught up with Jacob.

Nicole was a little curious. After all, she studied in the local university and never went out. So it was the first time for her to take a plane.

She was still confused even when she got on the plane and sat in the seat.

At a loss, the beautiful airline stewardess walked to her and reminded her with a standard eight teeth smile, "madam, please fasten the seat belt, OK?"

"Ah." Nicole was a little embarrassed. After touching the seat belt, she became a little anxious and did not know what to do.

All of a sudden, when she felt so embarrassed a hand came to help her fasten her seat belt.

Nicole stared at his hand and blushed.

Only Jacob was sitting next to her. She could guess whose hand it was.

"Thank you." Nicole's voice was so feeble that it sounded like midge.

"Humph!" Nicole didn't know whether it meant that Jacob accepted her thanks or just expressed his disdain for her.

Nicole turned back sulkily without saying anything more.

Although the atmosphere between them was still very strange, Nicole's curiosity was not affected at all. She looked out of the window from time to time with a surprised expression on her face.

After she had watched the plane steadily flying for a while, Jacob suddenly spoke.

"Get up."

Nicole was shocked, "what?"

Jacob began to unbuckle his seat belt impatiently. "Get up, let's change seats."

"What?" Nicole blushed again. She knew very well that Jacob said this because she kept peeping at the outside from time to time. And Jacob was sitting beside the window. She was sure that she affected him just now.

"Hurry up." He stood up while speaking.

Embarrassed as Nicole was, she unfastened the seat belt quickly and moved over to sit on Jacob's seat.

She glanced at Jacob out of the corner of her eyes. Jacob was sitting on her chai and closed his eyes.

Nicole made a face and turned to look out of the window boldly.

Looking from her position, she could see the long white clouds and marshmallow like cotton candy under the wings. The big clouds were very beautiful.

The sun shone slantly at the cloud and cotton candy like clouds dyed it in a golden color.

It was so beautiful.

Nicole was fascinated and laughed.

Jacob, who had been silent all the time, suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Nicole, and then closed them again.

He smiled.
