Sweet Sorrow

Nicole closed her eyes subconsciously.

However, the slap did not fall.

As she opened her eyes, she saw Jacob standing in front of her, with one arm up. He was catching Austin's wrist.

"It's you again!" Austin recognized the man immediately. He was the one threw a check on him. Then Austin's eyes were filled with envy soon.

"Stay away from my girl." Jacob said without any emotion and shook off Austin's hand

"Your girl?" Glancing at Nicole and Jacob skeptically, Austin said with a sly face, "Nicole, is he your new customer?"

It was really harsh and said quite loudly. A few passers-by heard it and looked at them curiously.

It was not the first time that Austin had insulted Nicole like this. She had been used to it and didn't even change the expression on her face.

However, Jacob was not used to it, and he frowned.

Everybody who knew Jacob well understood that he was almost irritated when this expression appeared.

But Austin didn't know. He thought his words were working and this man was getting angry with Nicole. So he continued malicious words, "What after all you like her of? ……"

Before Austin could finish his sentence, he was knocked to the ground by a punch from Jacob.

Although Jacob was wearing a suit and seemed never fight with anyone. But back then, he used to be the boss in the middle school only because he had defeated other students. He was strong and skilled enough to hit Austin hard and made Austin dizzy.
