Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Because of the recent troubles, Jacob didn't walk as fast as he used to. Instead, his slow pace as he took each step steadily made him look more mature.

He didn't even bother to spare anyone a glance while passing through the staff area. To him, those people were nothing of importance in his life.

Those people may know him, but he didn't. Jacob didn't have deep attachments to any of them. In fact, he only met some of them once.

However, the difference between him and them was clear. Compared to them, Jacob always had the spotlight. Even a mere sneeze from him would send people gossiping. It wasn't their fault, though. Jacob was the CEO after all. This was the burden that he had to carry.

The staff area immediately became silent. Everyone stopped whispering at the sight of their boss passing by. The look in their eyes showed that they weren't afraid of him as they used to be. In fact, some of them even had the nerve to not bother hiding their laughter.

Jacob didn't care. With a stoic face, he continued to walk with his head held high and turned a blind eye. It was obvious that the employees had seen the news. Still, no one dared to criticize their CEO within earshot.

They didn't know anything other than what they had learned from the news. Surely, there were other things they were not aware of. Various opinions circulated among them. Some of them thought that Jacob deserved it, but some were also sympathetic towards him.

However, most of them mocked him. For someone famous, his reputation was definitely ruined.

An ordinary person would not be able to bear such a humiliation. In fact, it was useless to bear it. On the other hand, for someone like Jacob to bear it, the impact on his life was far more different.

For people who were in the upper class of society, their every move was being watched. Now, everyone thought that Jacob's image was ruined after being exposed for being involved in a romantic affair.

"As expected of Mr. Jacob, he was acting as if nothing had happened. Unbelievable!"

"Yeah, it didn't seem as if he had changed at all."
