Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Even if Jacob remained silent, his presence alone was enough to aggravate fear. Kim had a look of tremendous horror as he stood there trembling.

"Start talking!" Jacob roared. The voice was loud and terrifying that it scared everyone present. Even Kim couldn't help but flinch in surprise.

Still, he was at a loss for words. It was like someone had cut off his tongue and he couldn't bring himself to speak. His knees buckled, ready to collapse at any moment.

Jacob's expression was unreadable and this made Cindy more nervous. She cast a brief glance at her boss before turning back to Kim.

"Kim, if you're in trouble, just tell us. How will we know if you won't talk to us? We won't be able to help you if you remain silent."

Cindy took Kim's trembling hand and held it gently. The man gave it a light squeeze and met her eyes for a split second before lowering his head again. If only he was able to turn back time, then he would definitely not make the same mistake. But that was impossible. This was reality, and there was no turning back.

"There's no way to fix this now, Cindy. If I talk, you will definitely suffer the consequences." Kim could only cower in fear. Feeling hopeless, he covered his head with his hands and squatted on the ground.

His words, however, got the two men's immediate attention. As Jacob raised his eyebrows, James immediately sat on the chair next to him.

"Did someone threaten you with Cindy's safety to steal the documents?" James cautiously glanced at Jacob, who gave the same look in return.

As both of them exchanged knowing looks, James knew that his nephew was thinking of the same thing as him.

"Well... I'm not allowed to tell you. If I break the agreement, they would take revenge on me. There's no reason for me to be afraid if I was alone. However, I have Cindy." Kim sobbed.

His voice sounded hoarse and painful from choking as he immediately placed a hand over his mouth and stopped talking.

"They? Who are they?" James narrowed his eyes and cast a sharp glance at the man. That instant slip on Kim's words had somehow given him a lot more information than expected.

Kim blinked in shock and silently stayed in place. He wanted to slap himself for not being able to keep his mouth shut.
