Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Jacob wasn't the type of person that forced people to do his will. Despite his influence, he always gave room for people to make their own choices. Of course, if Cindy was unwilling, he wouldn't force her. Jacob saw through everything now. The most important thing in life was to be happy. He understood that no matter the mishap that may occur, humans needed to find a reason to be happy.

Jacob felt that his wealth and influence were useless if he couldn't be happy. Material things didn't matter to him anymore. Now, he just cared about his happiness.

Previously, he had thought that he would be happy if he fulfilled his late father's wish. He had tied his happiness to the prospects Michael had for him.

He had worked hard to restore the Shi clan to its glory. He fought tirelessly for the reputation of the family. Sadly, all his efforts were futile. Everything was in vain. And he lost in the end.

This was Jacob's choice. He parked the car in front of the magnificent Shi Group building. If things went as planned, this would be the last time he would come to the company. He wanted to be done with all the pending things once and for all.

Jacob was aware that his actions made him seem like a coward. And that he was running away from his problems. But he concluded that it was best he did that than to be used by other people. He didn't want to be cajoled into doing anything again.

The only reason he still had an attachment to the company was probably because of Michael. The business carried the memory of his late father. And he felt sad because of this.

'I'm sorry, Father. I let you down. I didn't fulfill your last wish. Assuming you were still alive, would you be mad at me? Will you blame me for all this?' Jacob thought.

As he walked to the entrance, the sun shined brightly. And Jacob's shoes sparkled under the sunlight. Many of the employees were walking around. Although most of them recognized him, none of them greeted him. They just averted their gaze. Some of them even whispered to their colleagues.

Jacob chose to ignore this attitude. That wasn't why he was there. In fact, he cared less about the fickleness of the world. Human beings were unstable. He reasoned that if anyone greeted him, that might create problems for that particular employee. The management might sanction him or her.

Because of this, no one was ready to be the scapegoat. They were all afraid that they might lose their jobs. Jacob knew what they were thinking of. He fully understood that they were just trying to protect themselves.

He just strode into the first floor. Then he went to the reception desk and stated his mission.

"I want to see Jonathan," Jacob said with a serious look on his face. He had no time to waste.

"Okay...Mr... Mr. Jacob," the receptionist stuttered after she remembered that he was no longer the president.

Jacob didn't care about this. He just nodded indifferently. After all, he had resigned himself. Although he hadn't confirmed if he was still the president, his instincts told him his position was no longer vacant. He felt it because of the stares he received.
