Ex-wife, Please Come Back

The scene was gradually becoming ugly. Jacob could see that Sara was boiling with anger. Just then, he reached out his hand to stop her. When she looked back at him, he shook his head. This was to discourage her from acting on impulse.

"I wish you a happy married life," Jacob said as he looked at Jonathan with firmness in his eyes.

Alice stared at Jacob in shock. 'No, that's not what he's supposed to say! He had clearly persuaded me to leave Jonathan just now, '

At that instance, Alice's eyes were filled with despair. Her expression showed that she was shocked and sad at the same time. 'Did my wedding to his cousin not annoy him? Why is he acting so cool?'

"Jacob is very generous. Well, I won't give him a hard time." Jonathan's face darkened when he heard his cousin's response. He felt like Jacob was the one humiliating him at that moment.

Things weren't going as he had planned. Jonathan wanted to embarrass Jacob today. But the result was the exact opposite. And this was already very embarrassing for Alice. He could tell from the frown on her face. Besides, all that he had said didn't sound like he was praising his bride. Rather, it seemed like he was making a mockery of her.

The guests were all silent. They watched the unfolding drama before them. Most of them had their lips slightly parted in shock. But none of them could pinpoint what exactly was wrong.

"Jacob, I want to leave now." Sara was not pleased with what was happening. But she didn't blame Jacob. Her anger was because of Jonathan's tone and expression. Deep down in her heart, she hated him so much.

'What did Jacob do wrong? Why should he be interrogated at their wedding? They are biting more than they can chew!' Sara thought angrily.

Noticing the frown on Sara's face, Jacob looked at her affectionately. Then, he asked in a soft voice, "Honey, what's wrong?"

"I just think these two are stepping out of line. Who do they think they are to question you like this?" Sara paused. Her anger was gradually surmounting. Indeed, she was pissed with the audacity of this couple.

"Well, let's go then." Jacob smiled at his beloved woman. Then, he placed his arm on her shoulder and they walked out. At that moment, Sara felt warm in her heart.

She knew that he was also in a bad mood now. She didn't mean to give him a hard time. But Sara just felt that the humiliation was uncalled for. Surprisingly, he had remained calm. And she admired him for that.

As they walked out of the hotel, Jacob breathed a sigh of relief as he stared tenderly at Sara. Being by her side brought him peace. He was only able to put up with the embarrassment back there because she was with him. When Jacob inhaled the air outside, he felt that it was fresher than the one inside the hotel. Perhaps it was because the toxic couple was no longer around him.
