Ex-wife, Please Come Back

She was in complete disbelief that Jacob would scold her for Sara. Alice felt the sudden outrage that arose in her heart. If she didn't constantly remind herself to endure it, she would already have exploded.

"Jacob, how do you feel about me now?" Tears brimmed from Alice's eyes. She felt saddened. She had never experienced being on the other end of Jacob's ill-temper.

"Enough, Alice. I just care about what you're going to do next."

Jacob realized how harsh his words were. After all, Alice was pregnant. Maybe he could try to be more considerate and not push her too much.

Tears started to fall down Alice's cheeks. She had waited such a long time, and now all Jacob had given her were cruel remarks. Everything she had expected didn't happen.

Instead, what happened was all the things that Alice never wanted to see. It was completely beyond her expectations. She thought that since she had been gone for a long time, Jacob would shower her with love and affection. But she didn't expect that he would despise her so much.

Alice wept. She knew that Sara's favorite food was steak, so the moment the steak was served on the table, Alice restrained herself from eating it.

So far, the steak remained untouched and intact as it lay on the table in front of her.

Yet Alice's mood had shifted. The same things remained but the people that surrounded it had changed. In a daze, Jacob looked at Alice, but felt no sympathy in his heart for her.

Before, he grew nervous when he heard her cough. But now, he no longer harbored the same feelings he once had for her.

It was like this when the pair had fallen in love. The longer they had stayed together, the softer their hearts would be. However, if they separated, they would act coldly to one another. Perhaps it was because Jacob had been separated from Alice for such a long time that his feelings for her started to fade.

"Fine. Don't cry. It's not good for the baby." Jacob narrowed his eyes and placed both his hands on his chest. The matter had already crossed his mind.
