Chapter 12 Stigma
Chapter 12 Stigma
In her high heels, Sara went back to her bedroom. It was such a big house. Since it was not her own house and she was annoying to him, why did she still stay there?
After sorting a few clothes, Sara went downstairs with her suitcase.
"Are you doing this to make others think that I mistreated you, so you are angry and want to go back to your parents' home? Since we are all acting, what was the difference between now and the past four years? Jacob was sitting straight on the sofa, and his eyes are sharp and inviolable.
Sara's fair face turned red because of anger, and her smooth forehead wrinkled slightly, as if she had a severe headache. She barely leaned against the wooden stairs to support her body, and she was still pretending to be calm. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Dear ex-husband, you are right. It was just a contractual relationship between us from the beginning, so I'm just going home now. Bye. " Dragging her suitcase, Sara wanted to run towards the door.
She had lost, and she couldn't lose her dignity anymore.
Jacob also quickly stood up, darted to the door and reached out his hand to stop Sara. As much as she wanted to get out, Sara kept pushing forward.
Jacob hugged Sara tightly, which made her stop all her movements in an instant. She said powerlessly but firmly, "let go of me.".
Jacob smelled the tantalizing scent of Sara, so he quickly found her lips and put his hand on her back. Sara struggled hard. She even kicked forward.
"You are really good at acting, Sara. You deserve the Oscar Golden Statuettes," Jacob also cried out in a slightly painful voice.
Sara's phone rang. It was a call from Thompson. She was hesitating whether to answer it or not. Jacob also grabbed it.
"I'm Jacob. Please don't call my woman again." Jacob deliberately stressed the two words "my woman".
"Mr. Jacob, it's just a fair competition. Don't say Sara is yours." Thompson laughed on the phone.
"Thompson, don't think that I don't dare to hurt you, you can have a try.". Jacob stared at Sara as he spoke, as if she was the one who had affair with other man.
With a complicated look on her face, Sara looked at Jacob. Obviously, it was his fault. Why did he always feel as if she had done something wrong.
Besides, when he answered the phone, Sara really thought he was jealous.
After hanging up the phone, Jacob looked at Sara's hand holding the suitcase tightly, with a kind of melancholy spreading over his forehead.
"We should both calm down. We can live our own lives, but we can't live separately. After all, my divorce has a great impact on the company." Jacob also made it clear.
The good impression she had for Jacob disappeared again. As a living man, Sara was always compared with the interests of the company by Jacob. It was so ironic.
As expected, a businessman valued profit more than parting.
Since there must be someone who has the real courage and no one can bear the burden of life for others, they can't stand at the end of the road and burst into tears halfway.
Without saying a word, Sara took the luggage back to her room.
Too many things had happened that day and she was too tired. She fell asleep immediately.
She had thought that she would have nightmares, but she didn't expect that she would have no dreams all night. She had a good sleep.
It turned out that her good luck hadn't been defeated yet, so Sara laughed at herself.
After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Sara just casually penciled her eyebrows and changed into a light ink dress. It was true that it was hard to give up a real natural beauty. With just a little makeup, she was exceedingly beautiful.
Such a beautiful face couldn't keep Jacob by her side.
Such a person was abandoned miserably.
As expected, she couldn't take one more look at herself, or else she would feel self-pity. Taking a deep breath, Sara decided to go on with her life.
Soon, Sara arrived at the company.
Everything went smoothly than she had expected, and no one could tell her emotions.
Sara spent the whole day thinking about the connection between her company and [时俊]'s. it had to be said that Jacob had helped her father make a lot of achievements in the past four years.
First of all, the company was undergoing transformation. In the past, the company mainly produced daily necessities and needed a lot of workers. Their skills were unsatisfactory. With the transformation and upgrading of the company, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
Second, more than half of the company's orders came from Jacob.
Jacob did have the ability to make Sara go bankrupt overnight. As long as he did some tricks, Sara's father's company would be in grave danger.
In a short time, the company couldn't survive without Jacob.
Frowning slightly, Sara looked at the pile of complicated documents.
At this time, his assistant knocked on the door, Sara invited her in with a smile.
"Miss Sara, Mr. Jacob of the Shi Group asked you to meet him. He has business to discuss with you. The assistant said unhurriedly with the paper.
"Got it. I'll be right there. "
She straightened her dress and tried to cheer herself up. Sara had already stood at the door of the Shi Group. Everyone knew that she was the CEO's wife, but they didn't know that she was just a business partner of the Shi Group.
Who cared about that?
As soon as Sara entered, someone recognized her. She thought Sara would come to check on Jacob, so she nodded and bowed to welcome Sara to Jacob's office.
In the office, Jacob and Alice were in. How could Alice not be on such an important occasion? She had to guard her man and not let anyone who threatened her get close to Jacob.
Alice poured a cup of tea politely and put it in front of Sara.
Satisfied with Alice performance, Jacob pretended to blame her, "just leave this kind of trifles to my assistant. You don't have to do it yourself. "
With a gloomy face, Sara's good-looking face seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. There was no emotion in her voice. "If you just want me to come here to see you show off your love, you don't have to. "
Although feeling wronged, Sara couldn't say anything.
"I called you here today to talk about business with you. Jacob also sensed Sara's jealousy, which made him happy. He couldn't help smiling.
When did it become Jacob's hobby to torture Sara? Or was it because she was jealous? He liked this feeling very much.
"Mr. Jacob, what shall we talk? "There is a trace of impatience in Sara's tone."
"I want to discuss the ordering cost with your company again. I've talked to Alice about it a few days ago. I did give you too much profit and our company's cost is too high. Alice looks like a sweet girlfriend. She leaned against Jacob.
"Jacob, our company has given you enough profit. Besides the cost, we only earned less than 5% of the profit from your purchase." Sara said with anger.
Alice was really not easy to deal with. She not only stole other people's husband, but also destroyed other people's company.
"I plan to raise the price by 2%. If it is acceptable, we can continue to cooperate. If not, other companies have someone to cooperate with. Jacob also stared at Sara, as if he were staring at the meat on the chopping board.
She didn't care about the old days or the relationship between husband and wife. He shouldn't be so cruel to strangers.
Alice put on a triumphant smile again. She defeated Sara easily without saying anything.
Sara stood up and said that she had to go to the bathroom. She couldn't hold on any longer. She was so tired that she could hardly sit still.
As soon as Sara walked out of Jacob's office, she fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Before she lost her consciousness, Sara struggled and thought, 'fortunately, I didn't fall in front of Alice and Jacob as a loser. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to remove this sense of stigma in my life.'.
