Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 410 Resume Work

Jacob stared at Sara affectionately. He was bedazzled by her whole being. As she sat across the table, he couldn't help but fantasize about her. With a big smile plastered on his face, he teased his beloved woman. Sara averted her eyes shyly. Then, she picked up a crab.

The crab was steamed and it looked tasty. As Sara took a bite, she moaned with her eyes closed. There was a burst of flavors in her mouth. The meat was very fresh and savory. Jacob smiled happily as he saw her reaction.

After the meal, the lovebirds rushed to a stall to buy sun hats. They didn't expect that it was summertime in Sri Lanka. Assuming they knew, Sara would have included sun hats in their luggage.

The weather was hot because the sun was shining brightly. However, Sri Lanka was an island country. So, the cool breeze downplayed the heat from the sunlight. As the sun shined, the breeze also soothed the skin. It wasn't so bad after all.

Sara wore her sun hat. And she drank the coconut juice which Jacob had bought.

Then, she bought a pair of sunglasses and a colorful beach dress. After she put them on, Sara felt more comfortable. Now, she could move freely without the sun entering her eyes. Or feeling too hot on her skin.

Locking arms together, Sara and Jacob walked along the busy streets and alleyways of Sri Lanka. Many people stopped and stared at them because of their good looks. Truly, the couple looked so good together. They seemed perfect! Sara was already used to this kind of attention. In the past, people stared at them everywhere they went together.

Indeed, there is no novelty in what happens frequently. Even though she was naturally a shy person, Sara didn't feel embarrassed now. She even flashed a smile at some of the onlookers.

They spent half of the day sightseeing and window shopping. Sara and Jacob had mad fun. When it was evening, they returned to the hotel. It was when they got to the lodge that Sara began to feel a severe pain on her feet.

Both feet had a "Y" line on them. This was because of the sunburn. In order to feel more comfortable for the walk, Sara had worn slippers. And this was what caused the line.

When they got to their room, Sara immediately collapsed on the bed and sighed heavily. She stretched out her legs to ease the pain.

Moments passed before Jacob finally took off his shoes. Then, he sat on the bed and stared at Sara with affection in his eyes. Lowering his head, he asked, "How do you feel today?"

For a few seconds, Sara just stared blankly at the ceiling. Then, she replied, "Not bad. I enjoyed myself. But I'm a little tired."

Jacob rubbed her cheeks slightly as he smiled. "Before, I was worried that you would be tired. So, I didn't take you out. But I reasoned that I may not have another opportunity for a vacation like this, so I came here with you. Who knows how busy we might be later?"

Immediately he finished speaking, Jacob stretched out his arms and hugged Sara tightly. Her slender body melted into his. At that moment, their bodies were in a sensual position. Surprisingly, Sara didn't resist his embrace. In fact, she wrapped her hands around his broad back. She was already used to his likeness for intimacy. Now, Sara understood that physical touch was part of his love languages.

Jacob carried her in his arms, and walked into the bathroom for shower before going to bed.

The lovebirds spent a few more days in Sri Lanka before they finally left. They went to beaches, tasted different food. And even visited the museum.
