Chapter 308 Terminate The Contract


    For a moment, Cindy didn''t know how to react. Suddenly, she changed hands as she held onto the


    bridge. There was a hint of hesitation in her eyes.


    "Mr. Jacob, some things can''t be stopped once they are set into motion. I don''t have any other choice!"


    Her eyes reflected a hint of despair. Soon, her expression grew more dull and miserable.


    Stunned, Jacob stared at the policeman with a big mole standing beside him.


    "You can always start over in life, little girl. However, you can''t stand up again if you die. Do you


    understand what you''re trying to do?" With a nce at the river, the policeman with a big mole noticed


    that the rescue ship was already under the bridge.


    Meanwhile, Cindy didn''t know about the boat. The only thing in her mind was her endless sadness.


    Suddenly, she stared at the water with miserable eyes. Everyone didn''t breathe as they waited for what


    she would do.


    The cold atmosphere was as freezing as the water below the bridge. With bright eyes, Jacob stared at


    her. Every action she took moved everyone''s heart.


    "Please forgive me," she whispered in a depressed tone. At that moment, she looked resolute and


    ready to die.


    Everyone else thought that she was only hesitating. However, Jacob felt something was wrong.


    Nervously, James clenched his fists. Suddenly, a terrible feeling crept in his heart.


    Whoosh!

    Cindy jumped off the bridge. Immediately, Jacob ran and looked at Cindy, who just fell. Feeling


    complicated, he leaned on the bridge.


    A sigh escaped everyone''s breathing. Although she could solve her problem, Cindy couldn''t forgive


    herself.


    Not only could she move on, but she also made a stupid decision. Although no one made any


    conclusion about what happened, there was still a need for an exnation.


    However, she chose to not tell anyone. Moreover, she also felt guilt and sadness.


    The police on the rescue boat immediately jumped into the river and carried Cindy above board. Since


    she probably drank a lot of water, she lost consciousness. It would take a great amount of resolution to


    jump into the water on such a cold day.


    Suddenly, she began gasping for air.


    "How is the situation?" the policeman with a big mole asked his coworkers on the ship.


    "It''s nothing serious. However, we''ll immediately send her to the hospital," replied the dark-skinned


    policeman in civilian clothes.


    Finally, a sigh of relief escaped Jacob''s breath. He finally understood something.


    The crowd seemed to be at ease. When Jacob looked at the passers-by, the policeman was telling


    them, "You can disperse now, everyone. The woman is safe!"


    Soon, everyone left one by one. After a while, only a few people were left on the bridge.


    It seemed as if nomotion happened just then.


    "We''ll take her to the hospital. You take care of everything else afterward. Of course, you can call us if


    you need anything else." The policeman with a huge mole extended his fingers to gesture a phone call.


    Then, he ced his hand in his pocket.


    "Thank you. Let''s call it a day." James nodded with a relieved look.


    Finally, the police sent Cindy to the hospital. Jacob and James followed behind them.


    This incident might traumatize Cindy. No one talked on the way to the hospital. Jacob stared out of the


    window as his thoughts wandered off.


    Before this, he never gave much thought to depression and suicide. It was only now that he realized it


    might happen to the people around him. Apparently, it happened frequently. Aside from birth, old age


    and death were always a part of life.


    Jacob pulled his clothes to shield his body from the strong wind. The gust exhausted him and made


    him feel deste.


    Everything always had a beginning and an end. Unfortunately, some endings were pitiful.


    Depressed, Jacob sighed and lowered his head. Fortunately, Cindy was safe. Otherwise, it might scar


    him mentally and emotionally.


    They brought Cindy to the emergency room after arriving at the hospital. Moreover, they changed her


    into patient clothes. Meanwhile, her wet clothes were sent to Jacob''s men to dry.


    Money is so great since it allows you to do a lot of things others couldn''t.


    Therefore, most people are scrambling for money. Although, Jacob never regarded it as something


    great. Nheless, after obtaining wealth, he could finally live his life ording to what he wanted.


    Meanwhile, Cindy still had yet to open her eyes. While sitting in front of her bed, Jacob nkly stared


    at her.


    For a moment, James went out and made a phone call. After that, he came inside again.


    Finally,te in the afternoon, Cindy woke up! Her nose was red from sneezing too much. Maybe she


    caught a cold.


    When she opened her eyes, Jacob was the first person she saw.


    For a moment, she felt petrified and was taken aback. She looked like she wanted to sit upright.


    "Cindy, don''t move yet. Stay still, okay?" There was some gentleness in Jacob''s eyes. Moreover, there


    was no authority in his tone.


    "Mr. Jacob! I thought…" Suddenly, she touched her throat as if something blocked it, rendering her


    unable to speak.


    "Let it go. Everything''s fine. We can talk about it after your recovery." With warm eyes, he leaned closer


    and tucked her in the bed.


    "Please forgive me, Mr. Jacob." Sobbing, Cindy lowered her head.


    "Tell me what happened," Jacob said with a louder yet caring voice.


    "He lied to me. In the middle of our argument, I identally tore the file." Tears trickled down her


    cheeks.


    "So where''s the file?" Jacob suddenly realized something.


    "I left it in the ce where we met. Maybe someone already threw it into the trash can."


    Embarrassment shed across her face.


    "Uncle, go back there and recover the document. We might be able to redeem it. Otherwise, we need


    to terminate the contract." Jacob turned to James and said in a soft tone.


    "I understand. Don''t worry. I''ll return soon. If there''s anything you need, don''t hesitate to call me. By the


    way, do I still need to tell Sara about what happened?" James asked as he walked towards the door.


    He turned the doorknob and looked at Jacob, waiting for a reply.


    "No, it''s alright. I''ll tell her instead. For the time being, we should keep this a secret. Don''t tell anyone,


    especially in thepany." A serious expression shed on Jacob''s face. It was his first step.


    "I understand. Okay, I''ll leave first." With a nod, James quickly left the ward.


    Meanwhile, Cindy and Jacob were left in the room. He was staring at her with concerned eyes.


    "Cindy, we can talk about what happened. I''m the only one here. I promise not to tell anyone about


    anything you''ll say." Cross-legged, he satfortably with his hands in his pockets.


    "That bastard lied to me. He used me! He stayed with me to get confidential information about the


    company. Then, he wants to use it to threaten you. Or worse, he''s going to sell the information to


    others!"


    Heartbroken, she couldn''t breathe as she lowered her head.


    "So, how do you feel?" With a frown, Jacob tried to sympathize with her.


    Her looks weren''t so great. She had an ordinary job. Because of her age, her family was pressuring her


    to marry someone. As such, she must''ve invested a lot in the rtionship. Unfortunately, her boyfriend


    deceived her. Only a few people could fix her broken heart now.


    "I''m okay. Actually, I have no idea how I feel. All I know is how pathetic I am. His sweet words deceived


    me. I trusted him so easily!" While coughing, she covered her face to hide her pain.
