Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 195 Acting Like A Spoiled Child

An hour later, Nicole dressed neatly, put on light makeup and called back Jacob.

No one answered.

Nicole had no choice but to take her bag and key to go to the company of Jacob. Of course, she specially wore a mask.

Although she had a clear estimation of herself and knew that she was not very popular yet, she was cautious and didn't want to cause any trouble because of her carelessness.

After all, there were a lot of people keeping an eye on Jacob. It would be troublesome if they used her in his story.

When she arrived at Jacob's company, Nicole was stopped by the receptionist.

"Ma'am, who are you looking for?"

Nicole smiled politely, "Hello, I'm looking for Jacob and your Mr. Jacob."

"Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"

"What?"

Nicole was speechless. It turned out that she had to make an appointment to meet Jacob.

The receptionist was polite, but her words were polite and alienated. "I'm sorry, miss. You can't meet Mr. Jacob without an appointment."

"Then... What about you go inside and tell him? Tell him that someone wants to meet him? "

"That's impossible!" The receptionist looked at Nicole up and down and asked in confusion, "excuse me, what do you want to look for Mr. Jacob?"

"HMM... No. " All of a sudden, Nicole felt a little embarrassed. Jacob should be very busy with his work. If she came to the company so rashly, it might be a kind of interruption to him.

The receptionist said nothing and looked at Nicole.

Nicole felt uncomfortable under the gaze, but since she had already come, she didn't want to leave. Moreover, Jacob didn't answer the phone. She didn't know if he was losing his temper.

When Nicole was in upset, she suddenly heard a noise from inside.

"This is really troublesome. Next time we..."

Hearing this, Nicole recognized that one of the men who spoke was none other than Jacob. the receptionist heard the voice as well. She pushed Nicole aside and walked in quickly.

"Okay, Mr. Jacob. You can go back now. I'm leaving."

"Let me walk you to the elevator."

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Nicole's heart was in her throat. The next second, she bumped into Jacob face to face.

Jacob frowned and glanced at her. He didn't stop and continued to walk the guests out.

After seeing the guests off, Jacob came back and stood in front of Nicole without saying a word. The receptionist thought that the general manager was dissatisfied with the irrelevant people, so she quickly explained, "Mr. Jacob, she wants to meet you. She doesn't have an appointment, I..."

"Jacob, I..." Nicole was about to say something.

"I have something else to do. You can go back first." Jacob deliberately pulled a long face and turned away.

Seeing this, the receptionist hurried to Nicole's side, blocked Nicole with her body, and made a gesture of asking, "I'm sorry, miss, please go back."

Nicole could see that Jacob was losing his temper, but she had come to the company specially to see him. He was still so lukewarm, which made her a little angry.

"Jacob!" Nicole pushed the receptionist aside and shouted at Jacob's back.

Jacob stopped and turned around.

Nicole pouted and said angrily, "Jacob, do you really want me to go back like this?"

The receptionist's jaw almost dropped. Although Mr. Jacob was young, everyone in the company knew that he didn't like others to pester him, and he didn't show any good face to his subordinates who tried to get him.

This woman was so bold to yell at Mr. Jacob.

Could it be that...

Just as the gossip in the receptionist's heart was burning, Jacob turned back. He walked a few steps to Nicole, grabbed Nicole's wrist, and pulled Nicole towards the office.

The receptionist widened her eyes, like a petrified statue.

What did she see? What did you see? Mr. Jacob, who was not close to women and had no scandal, took a girl to his office?

Oh My God!

The point was that the girl looked fierce and not elegant at all. She seemed to be an ordinary girl. She didn't expect Jacob to be so kind to people!

The receptionist took a deep breath and couldn't help smiling. She returned to her seat and quickly shared what she had seen and heard with her colleagues in the small group.

--

"Why are you so angry?" Closing the office door, Nicole] complained to Jacob.

"What are you doing here?" Jacob didn't answer her question.

Frowning, Nicole followed Jacob to the sofa in the office and sat down. She stared into his eyes and said, "you're losing your temper. I'm here to see you."

"I didn't lose my temper." Although Jacob's tone was still cold, his eyebrows relaxed a lot and he looked a little happy.

"Why did you hang up on me if you didn't lose your temper? You were so cold just now. "

"I'm busy with my work." Jacob refused to admit it. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

But the more he behaved like this, the clearer Nicole knew that he was sulking and deliberately pretending to show it to her. Just like an angry cat, she had to be obedient.

Nicole softened her tone, reached out to hold Jacob's arm, and said with a smile, "didn't you say that you had booked a table? When are we going to eat?"

"Cancel it."

"What?"

Jacob said without passion, "Didn't you say that you didn't want to go out to eat? You were afraid that others would recognize you being with me, so I cancelled it."

"……" Hearing that, Nicole finally understood why Jacob was angry. She didn't know whether she should laugh or cry at this reason. She knew that she said to protect both of them, but why did he misunderstand her? "Nonsense. It's you, who don't want to eat the food I cook, so you want to eat outside, right?"

"Why are you so unreasonable?" Jacob was speechless.

Seeing that, Nicole burst into laughter.

"Well, I know what you are angry about. In fact, I didn't mean that. If I am reported to be with you, both my career and yours will be affected. At that time, how can there be such a calm and free world of two people. As you know, I don't like to be high-profile. I don't like to be watched like a gorilla... "

"Are you blaming me for being too ostentatious?"

Nicole shook her head, "no, I mean we should try not to be talked about by others at leisure. I like to be with you, but I don't like to be judged by others. Do you understand? "

"…… Humph! "

Seeing that Jacob's face softened, Nicole was in a good mood. She couldn't help but pinch his arm and said in a spoiled tone, "can you stop being so arrogant? Spoiled child is my patent, okay?"

Jacob retorted unhappily, "don't talk nonsense. I'm not acting like a spoiled child."

"You are obviously acting like a spoiled child, and you asked me to coax you..."

"Nonsense!"

"Look, you are acting like a spoiled child again."

Since Jacob couldn't persuade Nicole, he had no choice but to throw Nicole onto the sofa and shut up Nicole's mouth.

"HMM You... "

"Shut up! Otherwise, you won't be able to get out. "

"……"
