Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 100 A Lucky Date Was In The East

After drinking a bowl of bone soup, Jacob asked the injured maid to apply medicine to her face and then he gave an order to Lily.

"In the future, when I am not at home, you are in charge of all the important and small things in this house. No matter it is Daisy or others, don't listen to their manipulation, and don't be afraid of them. No matter what happens, I will support you."

Hearing this, Lily laughed happily. "Yes, Mr. Jacob!"

With this order of Mr. Jacob, if Daisy dare to make trouble again, she would not be forgiven!

After happy, Lily said to Jacob gingerly, "Mr. Jacob, What about Miss Nicole... Do you want to call her back? "

Jacob pursed his lips and said nothing.

"After Nicole left, I was worried about her safety, so I sent people to look for her, but we didn't find her."

"Got it. You can go about your business."

Jacob took out his phone and dialed Nicole's number.

The phone was not connected, and a cold, mechanical female voice said, "the number you dialed is powered off, please redial later."

Jacob hung up the phone fretfully, his eyes staring blankly at the ground.

After letting Nicole live in the villa, he removed the people arranged around her. Otherwise, he would certainly know where Nicole was now.

Jacob was a little regretful, but when he thought of Nicole's extremely disgusted look at those people, he couldn't bear to arrange it back.

If Nicole found it again, it would be a big trouble.

Jacob touched his forehead and thought for a while. According to his observation on Nicole during that time, she was not a person who liked to play around. Therefore, she left the villa for home in most cases.

It was weekend and she hadn't been home for a week.

If he chased after her, Nicole might not come back with him at this moment.

He didn't mind playing a fancy game with Nicole, but today he was really tired.

Although he was in good health, he felt a little tired after days of overdraft.

Jacob sighed and took out his phone to call his subordinate. Jacob asked him to check on Nicole in order to make sure she was home.

After the arrangements, he didn't even have dinner, but just went upstairs to rest.

--

Nicole left the villa with tears, but entering her home with a smile.

She felt that home was such a magical place. No matter how much she had suffered outside, as long as she was home, she felt safe. Compared with the smile on the face of her family, the grievances and sorrows were nothing at all.

Because Nicole didn't tell her family she would go back, When she arrived, she saw Jim and their mother pruning the flowers together. They moved towards the house with several pots of flowers in

their arms.

"Mom, why are you suddenly interested in flower nurturing?" Nicole asked while changing her shoes.

"Sister, you're back!" Jim put down the flowerpot and rushed at Nicole, giving her a bear hug.

Nicole patted on Jim's back and asked with a smile, "how is your school these days? Anything happened?"

Jim stood to attention and saluted to Nicole, "Sir, everything is fine!"

"That's good. My brother is a good boy." Nicole rubbed his hair, walked to the wall and looked at the potted flowers.

"Mom, I don't think it's a good idea to put the flowers here. But I think the balcony is empty. Why don't we put the flowers there?"

Judy smiled mysteriously, "that's the west side, and this side is the east side. The east side is a better Feng Shui. You don't understand."

Hearing that, Jim clicked his tongue and said to Nicole in a low voice, "sister, mom just told me that all the flowers in the East will bring a lucky date. So this is for you."

"What?" Nicole was astonished. But when she saw her mother's expression, she was amused.

Her mother was so worried about her marriage.

Nicole didn't believe superstition, so she didn't stop Judy as long as Judy was happy, she let her go.

"Mom, have a good rest tonight. I will cook for you." Nicole rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen.

Hearing Nicole's words, Judy put down the flower in her hand and stopped Nicole.

"It's not easy for you not to go to work today. Why cook? Have a good rest. I'll cook for you after I finish these flowers."

Nicole put her hand on her mother's shoulder and said with a wry smile, "Mom, don't push yourself too hard. It's just a meal. It's not a hard job. Just let me do it. I'll ask Jim to help me."

Judy said helplessly, "all right. Don't make too much. Just two dishes." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"Okay."

In high spirits, Jim followed Nicole into the kitchen and closed the kitchen door. While washing vegetables, he whispered to her, "sister, how are you and your boyfriend recently?"

Hearing Jim's words, Nicole inevitably thought of what had happened in the afternoon.

She bit her lips, trying to hide her displeasure, and casually answered, "well, it's good."

"When are you going to tell mom? Look at her. She is getting superstitious and raised flowers in order to find you a boyfriend."

As an old saying goes, one lie must be told to another. Nicole had understood the old saying.

She removed the leaves with celery and lowered her head, "let's talk about it later. It's not the time."

"When will we go?" Jim asked again.

'this moment will never come. Jacob will never have the chance to stand in front of her, ' she thought.

'Not only in terms of Jacob nor mom, it is impossible. '.

"What are you talking about, you little kid? Study hard. Don't be so gossipy." Withdrawing the sadness in her eyes, Nicole elbowed Jim, and teased him with a smile.

Since his sister didn't want to talk about it, Jim didn't ask any more.

His thought was always simple. As long as his sister was happy, he would be happy.

When they were cooking, Judy suddenly opened the kitchen door.

Nicole was startled and thought her mother must have eavesdropped on her and Jim's talk. Nicole was so frightened that she almost dropped the plate in her hand.

"Nicole, it's a call from Consuela."

Luckily, Judy did not show any difference but handed her phone in.

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief and answered awkwardly, "OK."

Judy didn't notice the change of Nicole at that moment, so she went back to work with the flowers.

Nicole put the phone on her ear and said hello.

"Nicole, why is your phone powered off?" As soon as Nicole spoke, she was stopped by Consuela.

"Well... It was a bit annoying, so I have to turn it off. "

"I can't get through to you. I'm worried about you."

Hearing this, Nicole became nervous. "What's wrong? What happened?"

"Yes! Let me tell you something important! No, two! Where are you now? I'll come to you! "
