Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Jacob was in a fix. He couldn't think straight. One of the things he hated the most was to be misunderstood. More so, he didn't want Sara's father to misunderstand him in any way. Jacob really wanted to be a perfect son-in-law. Standing at the door, Jacob stopped and stared at Sara with a confused look on his face. Sara just stared speechlessly at him. She didn't even know what to say that would calm him down. She just looked at the man she loved who was scared of her father.

"What should I do? I'm afraid that Dad would misunderstand me if I come out. And I don't want that to happen. I am still trying to make him like me." Jacob continued to look at Sara nervously. Worry lines had already appeared on his forehead. And his heart was throbbing. He was obviously troubled because of this issue.

This wasn't a surprise. After all, Carlos already had a bad impression of him. The old man had only accepted him because of her. He just wanted his daughter to be happy. But he still had eyes on Jacob.

Actually, Jacob wasn't particularly afraid that he would be misunderstood. That wasn't his major worry. He was worried that Carlos would object to him being with Sara. Besides, any loving father would want the best for his daughter.

Jacob still remembered what happened in the past. In fact, the memory was still fresh in his mind. Carlos hadn't taken it likely with him after the divorce.

"It's okay. Dad wouldn't say anything. He's not as scary as you think. So, calm down and stop being anxious. He won't bite you." Sara tried to comfort Jacob. However, she was also extremely nervous. Even more than him.

Jacob saw that Sara was also worried. He noticed that she was tapping her fingers on her lap nervously. At the sight of this, he almost burst out laughing.

At the same time, he was delighted that there was someone who worried about the same thing with him. This warmed his heart and he was less troubled.

As he stood there, the atmosphere was less tensed than before. Being with Sara made his problems seem less disturbing than they were. With this beautiful woman by his side, Jacob felt that he could surmount any obstacle that he came across.

Jacob took a deep breath. Then he opened the door of the room. As he did that, Carlos wasn't standing on the other side. His tensed nerves eased a little.
