Ex-wife, Please Come Back

James knew better than anyone that being submissive was not Jacob's style. But what worried him most was that this matter had greatly impacted Jacob, which led the latter to make an unimaginable choice of his own.

Truth be told, James disagreed with Jacob's resignation. He did not actually care about the position of the CEO. However, he believed that Jacob deserved that position since he had made so many contributions to the company.

To James' surprise, Jacob gave away his position without a second thought. If only James did not feel guilty and could not get ahold of himself, he would have been furious and would have done something regrettable.

Anyway, children and adults' mind run differently. In James' eyes, Jacob had been and would always be his child, even if nobody wanted to admit it. That was what James had always believed.

"Uncle, I know exactly what I'm doing. I know better than ever, really. I also know that even after many years, I will not regret my choice."

Jacob stood up and reached for a glass of water atop the coffee table. He felt a little thirsty from talking too much.

"I want some too," James said while looking at the glass in Jacob's hand. For a second, Jacob fell stunned. He regained his composure shortly after and took a big gulp. Once he was done drinking, he put back the glass on the table.

Jacob stood up from being cross-legged. As he did so, his slender legs drew a beautiful arc in the air. He then poured water for James as asked. It was not until Jacob stood up did he realize that James was also the same built as him.

James took the water from Jacob and said softly, "Thank you."

Tears suddenly welled up in Jacob's eyes. He just realized that after all this time, he still had done very little for his uncle. On the contrary, James had done so much for him.

It was always James who did so much and gave a lot, while Jacob just enjoyed it in silence. Things still had not changed, and it made Jacob unhappy.

If it were not for James, Jacob would not have been able to stay in the company for a long time. Not only that, but his life before would not have been so perfect.
