Sweet Sorrow Chapter 38 The Scene Was Extremely Irritating.

If Nicole just met Jacob, she would definitely not speak one more word. But after this period of getting
along, she was not so afraid of Jacob, and she even subconsciously believed that she could
communicate with Jacob well.

So Nicole smiled and stood up, then sat next to Jacob. She said in a very gentle tone, "How can I plead
for a person like him? I just think what he is doing has nothing to do with me, so there is no need to get
involved with him."

"Humph!" Jacob snorted. He didn't even lift his head. Apparently, he didn't believe her words.

Nicole knew that as long as she told Jacob about what Selina had done to her this afternoon, he might
not be so angry.

But she didn't dare to tell him.

Since Austin had lost his job, there was unnecessary to make things worse. She knew that, according
to Jacob's bad temper, he would certainly do more ruthless things to make the Liang family have no
way out. She didn't want that to happen.

It was not because how great she was, but because there was no need to do this.

"It's unnecessary for us to waste our time on them, isn't it?" Nicole was just telling the truth according to
Jacob's temper. Suddenly, the phone on the table rang.

They both looked at the name of Austin showed on the screen.

The scene was extremely irritating.

Nicole was startled and hurried to get the phone. But before she could do that, Jacob stretched his arm
and held the phone in his hand first.



Jacob glanced at Nicole coldly and answered the phone.

"Nicole, Nicole."

Nicole was about to reply Austin, but was stopped by Jacob who cast a cold glance at her.

"I know you are listening. If you don't want to talk, just listen to me."

"Nicole, I shouldn't have called you, but I can't help it. I'm looking at our previous wedding photos, and
they were really good. At that time, we were really happy. Oh, well, I know you don't like to listen this.
Nicole, I don't know what your relationship with that man whose surname is Gu is, but I want to ask
you, are you happy now? Do you like to be with him? If you are not happy... If you want to go back, I
will always..."

The sweet voice and ambiguous words came through the phone. Jacob's hand holding the glass
tightened bit by bit, which almost crush it.

"What will you do?" Jacob suddenly cut in.

"Who are you? Austin asked in amazement. Where is Nicole? Why are you holding Nicole's phone? "

"You just mentioned me. Why don't you remember who I am?" Jacob sneered.

"Gu... Gu..." Austin stuttered and didn't even know how to Jacob's name.

"Oh, is that your all courage? How dare you hit on my woman?" Jacob looked at Nicole coldly. "This is
the last time I warn you to stay away from my woman."

Austin on the other end of the line kept silent. He didn't know what to say to retort, nor did he say
anything to echo.

Without another word, Jacob put on a cruel smile and hung up the phone.



Looking at the strange and cold sight, Nicole shivered a little. She tried hard to raise the corners of her
mouth and wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to open her mouth.

Nicole's phone was set a password, so after Jacob hung up the phone, he quickly swiped the screen.
As expected, he saw the text message from Austin.

"Wow, you two are so close!"

Jacob seemed to ask casually, but his low and sharp voice frightened Nicole. Her face turned pale
immediately.

It wasn't like that.

"No, I haven't contacted him. We..."

"Clatter -"

The glass was thrown on the wall by Jacob and broke into pieces.

"Do you still want to lie to me?" Fury burnt in his eyes, and he glared at Nicole, like an angry leopard.

Nicole bit her lips and said nothing.

She didn't know what to say.

She felt as if no matter what she said would be wrong.

They looked at each other in silence, and the servants retreated when they realized that the situation
was not right. The big living room was so quiet that they seemed to be able to hear the wind blowing
the leaves out of the window.

Clatter, it made people feel very uneasy.



After a long time, Jacob stood up and walked out without saying a word.

Nicole was flustered for no reason. When Jacob was about to go out, she caught up with him and
grabbed his arm.

"Where are you going?" Nicole asked.

Without looking back, Jacob said, "it's none of your business. Let go of me."

Nicole knew that she didn't have the right to ask about the whereabouts of Jacob. But just now, they
had just had a conflict, and Austin had provoked Jacob again. She was very scared. She was afraid
that Jacob would do something irreparable.

"Where are you going?" Nicole insisted.

Jacob looked back at her coldly, "let go of me."

Nicole was anxious, her hands grasping Jacob's. She said in a hurry, "Jacob, I know you are angry with
me. But it was you who started all this. If you didn't provoke Austin and made him lose his job, he
wouldn't come to me, nor would he say those disgusting words. Now things are different. You can't
leave me alone. I feel sorry for you."

Jacob's eyes darkened, and a murderous glint flashed in them. "You think it's my fault?"

"Isn't it your fault? Thins have calm down now. Why do you have to pick on Austin? I've already told
you that he is... "

"So, are you distressed that I have picked on Austin?" Jacob turned around and pinched Nicole's chin.
He squeezed her jaw so hard that her jaw was almost out of shape.

Nicole gasped in pain. She struggled and tried to free herself from Jacob's grip.



"Well, then I'll let you care for him as long as you want!"

Jacob sneered and shook Nicole off. He left after saying that.

Nicole staggered and fell to the ground. It took her a long time to recover.

Why did it get so bad.

She sat on the ground for a long time before she staggered to get up.

It was too late. Her brother would certainly doubt her if she came back now. Nicole sat blankly for a
while, then went upstairs, washed her face and went to bed.

The servants in the Gu family were all well-trained. Although Nicole quarreled with Jacob just now, they
still show respect to Nicole. Before Nicole went to sleep, they also asked her if she wanted to eat some
night snack.

Nicole asked the servant to leave, wrapping in a quilt, and stared at the ceiling blankly.

A sense of powerlessness streaked across her heart, and her heart was desolate. 'How could I make a
mess of everything? Whatever it was.

Am I really so useless.'
