Chapter 23 Heartless


    Jacob had a good sleep. Maybe he was tired after staying upte, maybe he was tired after making


    love, or he even didn''t have a dream all night.


    When he woke up in the morning, Alice was still sleeping. He kissed gently on Alice''s forehead. Jacob


    also got up gently and put on his clothes. He was still needed in thepany and could not leave for


    too long under any circumstances.


    An old Chinese saying that those who work with their brains will rule and those whobor with physical


    strength are governed by others. Even so, it was not necessarily easier for those who work with their


    brains to live than those whobor with physical strength. On the contrary, the former paid more efforts,


    they usually lived more tired and troubled.


    Fortunately, Jacob had been familiar with affairs of human life since he was a child and was not afraid


    of the former. No matter how fearless he was, he had to do many things by himself. No one could do a


    lot of things for him.


    How bad his temper was, how good a skill he had. It was well-known that Jacob had a bad temper, but


    he was also known for his stability, uracy and fierceness in business. Therefore, to Sara, it was just


    a happy business, but it was a business that he had to worry about.

    For the whole week, Jacob didn''t go back to the vi, as if he was deliberately embarrassing Sara.


    But Sara didn''t feel embarrassed at all. If he didn''te back, who would be humiliated? Jacob knew


    better than Sara.


    When Sara was free, she went to buy a lovelybrador for Winnie. The dog was so clever that it


    learned to go to the toilet in two days.


    Winnie named the dog Dora, because she needed to get a health certificate or a dog breeding


    certificate Sara had been busy with this matter for a whole week, so she had no time to think about


    Jacob''s intention.


    Dora was very obedient and liked to be around people. Winnie was very happy. Every day when she


    came back to the vi after work, Sara would y with Sara.


    Dora liked Sara very much and waited for her at the door every day happily.


    Winnie was happier since she had Dora, and so did Sara. Winnie was used to walking the dog every


    day, and she even had a little expectation.


    A week had passed. On Monday, Sara went to work as usual. She hadn''t seen Jacob for a week. She


    didn''t expect that the person she didn''t want to see before suddenly disappeared.


    When Sara saw Ethan again, she was at an industry exposition. Unexpectedly, Ethan''spany was


    engaged in retail, almost a city''s giant in retail. It was also a first-sspany all over the country.


    Ethan was dressed in a gray suit, and his angr face was conspicuous in the crowd. After all,


    generally speaking, the CEOs ofpanies were usually all fat, and the people like Jacob and Ethan


    were rare.


    Ethan noticed Sara at a nce. She was wearing a formal suit and smiling.


    Wearing a white shirt and a ck tight skirt, Sara looked more delicate and capable. Ethan smiled


    She walked up to Sara and greeted her.


    "HI, long time no see, Sara. You are more and more beautiful. " Ethan didn''t praise people easily, but


    for beautiful girls, he would not hesitate to praise.


    With a blush on her face, Sara said, "Hi, long time no see, Mr. Ethan, you are getting more and more


    eloquent."


    Only when the two of them talked did they find a chance to cooperate.


    Ethan replied delightedly, "I had thought my business partner is far away. I didn''t expect she is close to


    me. We are still looking for a supplier everywhere. It seems that we need to have a talk. Miss Sara,


    please spare some time for me and let''s talk about the details of our cooperation. "


    Life was full of surprises. Unexpectedly, after leaving Jacob, life was full of nobility.


    Sara nodded happily.


    After the meeting, the two went to a restaurant. During the dinner, Ethan always amused Sara with


    humor, which made herugh like a silver bell. After that, the two had a preliminary discussion about


    the cooperation matters and schedule of thepany. Ethan nned to open two morerge-scale


    supermarkets in the city, but he was worrying about finding someone to be the shop manager.


    So he suggested that Sara should work as a manager in one of the stores. Realizing that she wasck


    of ability and energy, Sara refused.


    After dinner, Ethan leapt back to thepany to deal with the new restaurant, while Sara was sorting


    out the materials needed to cooperate.


    Jacob hadn''t been home for a week, and the family members had already been observing this in


    secret. After all, Jonathan always wanted to have the goods on Jacob, so that he could tell his father,


    "Look, a man who can''t even handle his private life can''t deal with the business of thepany well.


    The assistant whispered in Jonathan''s ear with her hands covering her face. An unnoticeable smile


    appeared on Jonathan''s face. He asked his assistant to leave.


    When Sara came back home, she found that Winnie was waiting for him at the door with a strange look


    on her face.


    "What''s wrong, Winnie?"


    "Sara, Jacob brought a woman back. It seems that we are going to live in the vi. " Winnie said


    awkwardly.


    Sara felt depressed as if she was blocking a big stone in her heart.


    Was Jacob so arrogant that he brought Alice back to the vi directly? Wasn''t he afraid of being known


    by others? Was he crazy to be so tant?


    Sara pretended to be calm and walked into the vi. Jacob was sitting on the sofa, and Alice was sitting


    on Jacob''s legs. The two were in an intimate posture. Seeing that Sara came in, Alice got off Jacob''s


    legs shyly.


    Deep inside, Sara despised the pretentious look on Alice''s face.


    "Jacob, don''t you think you''ve gone too far?" Raising her eyebrows, Sara nced at the two people


    who were pretending to be flirting.


    "Too far. I''m a bachelor now. What''s wrong with me finding a new girlfriend to take her home? As for


    you, you always hook up with three or four women outside. Why haven''t you sold yourself out yet? "


    Jacob stressed the three words "sold" on purpose.


    Winnie, who was standing next to them, was stunned. When did Jacob and Sara divorce? No wonder


    Jacob didn''t go home for a week. Looking at Alice with an innocent look on her face on the sofa,


    Winnie felt pitiful for Sara. She was a woman of bad luck.


    With her right hand resting on the solid wood stairs, Sara was about to go upstairs. When a man loved


    you, he really loved you. He would not be shy to show his love to you. But when he doesn''t love you, all


    his love was the same, impatient, and even disgusting.


    Knowing this, Sara always pretended that she didn''t care, but it didn''t mean that she really didn''t care.


    Looking at the bright smile on Alice''s face who was in Jacob''s arms, Sara couldn''t help but feel


    heartbroken.


    She just took two steps upstairs.


    "From now on, you can''t live in the master bedroom upstairs anymore. Alice will sleep in that room. "


    Jacob also raised his head and narrowed his long and narrow eyes into a seam. He wanted to have


    good nights with Alice in front of Sara, so that she could taste the loneliness and unbearable feeling of


    being alone.


    Sara turned around and said with sneer, "I don''t mind giving her what I don''t want."


    Jacob tried his best to suppress his anger. What did Sara mean? Did he mean that Jacob was also


    something she didn''t want! It was Jacob who abandoned her. How could she still be so righteous?


    Alice opened her mouth and said, "Jacob, I don''t want to live in that room all of a sudden. Let''s change


    to another one. That room was once lived by others. I think it''s dirty... "


    "Dirty?" There was uncontroble anger in Sara''s voice.


    "Then you won''t let go of the man I''ve slept with."


    Her words instantly hurt Alice. "You..."


    Alice was so angry that she couldn''t refute. She had to raise her head pitifully to look at Jacob and


    shouted, "Jacob, see?"


    Jacob also listened to what Sara had just said in his heart. It turned out that Jacob was nothing more


    than what she had abandoned in her heart. She was indeed ruthless.
