Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Eventually, the story of a group of people would be about the story of two people. That much was certain. People were used to living with one another.

After lunch, Jacob sat on the chair. He gazed at Sara affectionately. "I haven't been here for so many days. Were you scared I might have run off with another woman?"

With a snort, Sara leaned back with her legs crossed. "Who could you possibly run away with? If that happens, don't bother coming back."

Jacob felt embarrassed. He leaned against the table and propped himself up with his elbow. "I'm just kidding. Why, it looks like my wife is becoming more arrogant!"

Sara stood up and gave him a cold glare. "Who is your wife?"

Then, Sara left the table. Jacob stared after her in disbelief, his face darkening.

Sara had changed so quickly. It took Jacob a while to realize it, but she was no longer the woman that she was when they first met.

Alas, he had no choice. He only wanted her. He couldn't do anything but accept her for who she was. He loved and hated her at the same time.

After lunch, both Sara and Jacob headed back to the company. They were no longer in the honeymoon stage, so they didn't need to be together all the time. However, they knew that if one of them needed the other, then the other would come running to be by their side.

Sara enjoyed this feeling very much. She was free to do as she pleased, and she knew that he loved her deeply.

When Jacob got back to the company, he found that it was very quiet. Perhaps he was overthinking it, but he had just solved a major issue. It was natural that he would still be on his guard.

Cindy and James were not at the company. He found that there were very few people he could trust.

Jacob knew very well that he would never be friends with many people at work.

Over the past few years, he had to make quite a few enemies to secure his spot at the company. However, Jacob believed in quality over quantity. He preferred to keep his circle small and ensure that it was filled with people he could trust.

Jacob silently passed by the office area, and everyone held their breath. It was pathetic. People were acting like they were invisible.
