Ex-wife, Please Come Back

At that moment, Jacob realized why he always seemed so serious. Furthermore, he and James seemed to have some sort of connection even since he was young. It was only then that he understood why.

Once, Michael saw Jacob spending time with James. Unconsciously, he avoided interrupting the latter two. At first, Jacob thought it was only by chance. However, he realized now that accidents didn't often happen in this world.

Jacob swallowed a large lump in his throat. He had no idea what to say.

"Are you aware?" As if trying to convey an unknown meaning, James narrowed his eyes.

A surprised expression painted Jacob's face as he stared at James. Everything the former feared turned out to be true. The latter didn't even mince words.

"Yes, I am." Jacob slowly nodded with a miserable look. There's no way he could face Michael anymore. He felt like he failed Michael's love for him.

James dejectedly admitted. If they weren't having such a serious conversation, such words would sound like a compliment for Jacob.

"Dad," Jacob blurted out with watery eyes.

"Huh? What did you just say?" There was a hint of excitement in James's voice. His body was unknowingly shaking. If he wasn't sitting on the sofa, his legs would become wobbly, causing him to fall.

"Although I now know the truth, I will still refer to you as Uncle. My father will remain as my dad." Jacob wiped his tears and turned the other way.
