Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 303 What She Went Through

Deep down, it was just an excuse to comfort James. Even Jacob was taken aback and thrown into a loss. He didn't know what to do at that moment.

Various thoughts and scenes flashed through his mind all at once. He calculated every possibility and recalled everyone's face when suddenly, an idea popped into his head.

Without wasting any more time, he called his assistant Cindy.

"I'm in the meeting room. I need to see you right now." Although Jacob's tone was calm, his words still sounded like a threat.

So, after the call ended, Cindy rushed to the meeting room, without a single halt just to get there as soon as possible.

The other employees who saw her run with all her might were aroused in awe and admiration. True enough, it was not really easy to be an assistant of the CEO.

Cindy was panting when she reached the meeting room. After gathering up her breath and fixing herself, she knocked on the door.

"Come in," Jacob invited in a calm tone. This scene seemed to be a déjà vu, but he couldn't point out exactly when this happened before.

"Mr. Jacob, what can I do for you?" Cindy asked eagerly after stepping foot inside.

"I want to ask you something, and I expect you'd give me an objective and fair answer." Jacob looked at Cindy straightly as he uttered that sentence.

And as Cindy met his gaze, she knew that whatever it was, this wouldn't be easy. "Yes, sir. I will do my best to––" She obviously wanted to show her loyalty to him.

However, before she could even finish her words, Jacob interrupted her with a gesture.

Because of this, Cindy awkwardly stood in front of him with her lips pursed into a thin line.
