Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 138 Dismal

Bess's mother glanced at her father John as if she was blaming him for being too straightforward. She tried to mediate, "Her father means to ask if you have any plan after marriage?"

Taking a sip of abalone soup, Noah looked up at Bess. Although Bess had never asked him, she still hoped to hear his plan. Noah's words were clearly heard by everyone present.

"Take over the family business and make it stronger. It would be best if it could develop into a leading industry. And have two children. If Bess think that two children are too many, we can only have one. And then watch the child grow up." Noah didn't feel ashamed to say so in front of all people. He didn't want to make unrealistic promises. All he wanted was to be with Bess.

Jacob squinted at his friend, who had been frivolous since childhood. Since when did he become so serious? It seemed that the magic of love was really great.

Jacob also recalled the scene when he met Sara's parents when he got married. But his memory was so vague that he couldn't recall any details. It was as if this part of his memory had been cut off.

Looking at Noah in front of her, Sara felt happy for Bess. She couldn't help but secretly glance at Jacob. She was really easy-going at that time. Jacob had never really made such a formal greeting. Men would not cherish the things that were really easy to get.

Bess blushed. She didn't expect that Noah would say such words in front of so many people. What did he mean by having children? Bess felt shy at the thought of it.

Bess's mother nodded happily and picked up some food for Noah's mother. "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just made some ordinary dishes. If you don't like it, please forgive me." This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Noah's mother said politely, "It's very good. We never have such a luxurious meal at home. It seems that the cook at your home is very good. The dishes are good in color, aroma and taste."

The servant was used to such a scene, but she still couldn't help but feel surprised. The table was full of dishes, but Mrs. Wang said it was just a common meal.

With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Noah's father said, "What other requirements do you have? Such as the wedding requirements and the accommodation after marriage."

John smiled, "Let's leave it to the young couple. I've got the answer of what I want to know. As for you, do you have anything to ask Bess?"

Noah's father was very happy. "No, nothing. Noah's mother and I are both satisfied with Bess. There is nothing to ask. Noah has told us the basic information. We will know more in the future life."

Bess had been staring at Noah, and he also glanced at Bess from time to time. The two of them were extremely happy. Once they got the blessing of their parents, the probability of happiness in the future would be much greater.

It occurred to Sara that when she got married, Jacob was so arrogant as if he had trampled her into the soil. If time went back, Sara would never let herself down to dust. Because no matter how beautiful the things in the dust were, they were just dust.

Pulling Bess's sleeve slightly, Sara said in a low voice, "I wish you happiness, Bess."

Tears welled up in Bess's eyes because of excitement. She knew that Sara would bless her, but she didn't expect that it was at this time. As soon as their parents met, Sara couldn't wait to send her best wishes. Bess felt warm in her heart. Today was a turning point in Bess's life.

Jacob also noticed Sara's behavior. He didn't miss the tears in Sara's eyes. He knew that people liked to compare themselves with others. Thinking of that Sara would think him too careless, Jacob felt sad.

Why didn't he have any patience at that time and didn't left a good impression on Sara? If he had paid more attention to it, he wouldn't have been unable to remember anything. Jacob sighed and drank up the wine in his glass.

Today's protagonists were Bess and Noah, and he just served as a foil. However, it seemed that his situation was so embarrassing. Jacob even felt a little regretful to have come to the dinner. If he hadn't known that Sara would come, he would never have come. However, it turned out that he became a negative teaching material. Even so, Sara didn't even look at him.

After dinner, Noah's parents and Bess's parents went to the living room respectively to discuss the marriage of the two. Bess took Noah hand to the garden of the villa. Although the flowers had withered, the garden was beautiful.

Jacob and Sara followed them in embarrassment. The two of them clearly felt the difference between them and their friends. Their friends were happy and content, while they were melancholy that they even didn't know where the happiness was.

On the other hand, Noah was sitting on the swing in the garden, and Bess followed him. The two of them swung the swing together. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sara sat on a wooden chair nearby. Jacob glanced at her, but just stood next to her.

Some hurt seemed more painful when there were others to compare with. Jacob took a deep breath and felt that he shouldn't have come here today. But he wouldn't show it. Even if he was unhappy, he would just be angry to himself. He wouldn't blame others.

"Thank you, Sara. Without you, Bess and I wouldn't have developed so fast." With a smile on his face, Noah put one hand on Bess's shoulder and this scene looked very beautiful.

Sara felt a little awkward. "I don't know how I became your matchmaker. Since you have emphasized it again and again, I have to admit it even if I don't deserve it."

Jacob also glanced at Sara. He hadn't talked much since he entered the gate. Fortunately, the parents of both sides didn't care. Otherwise, it wouldn't be too much for saying that Jacob was here to mess up the party today.

Taking a look at Jacob, who was silent and had a sour face, Noah whistled and said, "Hey, Jacob, what's wrong with you today? Why haven't you been in a good state all the time. Fortunately, my parents in law haven't minded it, or you would have spoiled my marriage."

Jacob came back to his senses. Looking at Noah, who was smiling but pretending to be angry in front of him, he replied, "I said I shouldn't be in such a situation. Why did you insist on calling me here?"

Noah sighed, "Forget it. I won't talk about it with you. You can talk to Sara first. I'll go with Bess to see how's the wedding discussion going."

Bess made a gesture to encourage Sara, which was seen by Jacob. Looking at Bess and Noah who had left, Sara shouted, "Hey, Bess, don't leave me here."

It was not until then that Sara realized that she had made a gaffe. She looked at Jacob. 'Since when Jacob had become so idle?' Sara felt a little embarrassed. 'Was it too obvious?' But she didn't mean to hate Jacob.

Sara stood up and sat on the swing. "The dishes today are not bad."

Jacob looked at Sara, who was trying to find a topic awkwardly in front of him. He walked up and stared into her eyes. In Jacob's eyes, Sara, who was pretending to be calm, looked very dismal.
