Sweet Sorrow

Nicole stared at the screen for a few seconds and picked it up.

Even if Jacob didn't come to her, she would call him. She couldn't just let what happened to Austin.

"Hello."

"What are you doing?" Jacob asked coldly.

Nicole went back to the kitchen with her phone and checked if the water was ready. She replied, "yes, I'm preparing the dinner."

After a while, when Nicole was wondering if Jacob had hung up the phone, she heard him saying, "do you want to accompany your mother tonight?"

Seldom, it was not an order, but a probing and inquiry.

Nicole was about to say something, but she suddenly changed her tone, "it's okay, Jim will accompany her tonight."

"When will you come over then?"

Nicole thought for a while and replied, "I have had dinner with my mother. I want to wait till her to sleep, okay?"

She said it very carefully, fearing that Jacob would change his mind and say no.

But today, it seemed that Jacob was in a good mood and didn't lose his temper. Hearing Nicole's question, he surprisingly nodded.

After saying that, he said considerately, "Okay, I'll ask the driver to wait for you downstairs."

"No need!" Nicole refused before thinking twice.

"What?" A displeased voice came from Jacob on the other end of the line.

Nicole knew that this tone was just a sign of Jacob's unhappiness. She hurriedly explained, "there are many uncle and aunt exercising at night in the community. When they see me go out, they keep asking me about it. It's a waste of time. I'll take a taxi myself, or you can ask the driver to wait for me outside the community."

I'll pick you up outside. " Without asking more questions, Jacob hung up the phone.
