Sweet Sorrow

It was nearly twelve o'clock when Nicole took a taxi there. There were only a few people on the road, except for the road lamps which were still on and the cars driving silently.

"Thank you." After paying, Nicole closed the door and trotted up the steps.

The security guard had already received the order from Jacob, so when Nicole explained her identity, he let go of Nicole.

Nicole took the direct elevator all the way up to the door of the CEO's office.

Pushing the door open, Nicole anxiously looked into the room. The moment she saw him sitting on the CEO chair in a daze, her heart was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

"Jacob..."

Hearing this, he turned to look at Nicole with a tired and bitter smile. "I want to pick you up, but I'm too tired to move."

"It's okay. I came upstairs by myself." Nicole walked up to him, put her handbag on the table and held his hand. "Are you okay?"

Jacob kept silent. After a while, he shook his head and said, "No."

Biting her lips tightly, Nicole nodded and hugged him. For the first time, she hugged him like a guardian.

"Nicole..." Leaning his head against Nicole's chest, the expression on his face, which had been cold and rational for the whole day, finally showed a crack.

He said in a sobbing tone.

"Nicole..."

"Yes, I'm here."

As if he had confirmed his sense of security, his shoulders began to shake. He nestled in Nicole's arms and shed sad tears.

"Waah... Waah..."

The depressing and heavy cries resounded through the spacious conference room. With Jacob in her arms, Nicole gritted her teeth and looked up at the ceiling, forcing her tears back.
