Ex-wife, Please Come Back

"Yes, I was just as surprised to see that he was a director! Anyway, it's hard to tell whether those people are related or not just yet. And besides, Cindy has been weakened after what happened. I just want things to become normal again, Uncle James,"

Jacob said with a heavy heart.

"Yes, don't think too much about it. By the way, what's Cindy's plan going to be?" James asked, narrowing his eyes. He wondered whether Cindy regretted jumping into the river.

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that this issue had been a big blow for her. She told me that she was going to resign her job." Jacob sighed as he took the box of packed food from the waiter.

After giving the waiter his credit card, he turned his attention to his phone call.

"Well, the company is in need of employees at the moment, and Cindy is good. It's better if we persuade her to stay. Don't waste your time finding someone else, when you already have someone who cares."

Saying that, James let out a cough.

He knew that it was easier said than done. However, he realized that he couldn't achieve anything by forcing others to do something that they did not want to do.

"I know, Uncle James, and my intentions are the same as yours, but it is not up to me to make the decision. We'll just have to wait and see what happens," Jacob replied and took his credit card back from the waiter.

"You go take care of Cindy, and I will handle the company's affairs in the meantime. Don't worry, I won't be merciful in my judgment." James' expression softened as he smiled.

"I know, Uncle, but I want you to take care of yourself, too. And don't exert yourself," Jacob said in a gentle tone before he disconnected the call.

With the box of take-away food in his hand, he went to the hospital to visit Cindy and saw that she was lying on the bed with a blank expression.
