My Wealthy Husband novel Chapter 25

Nova turned around and wanted to leave, but Jacob picked her up in Johnny's car and took her away in spite of her resistance.

In the middle of the night, she was taken to the cemetery. Nova gnash her teeth with hatred.

He was insane!

Jacob stopped his always smile. Nova has a strange feeling seeing his face. She could feel his sadness.

After walking for a long time, Jacob stopped. He let go of her hand, bent down, took a candle and lighted it.

Nova glanced at the tombstone and was stunned. The woman on it was very beautiful, and she looked very similar to Jacob. Almost instantly, she knew who it was. Nova didn’t know why Jacob would bring her to his mother's grave.

“I bring her here to see you. Now you can rest in peace.”

Jacob spoke in a low and sad voice.

Nova swallowed and whispered, “What are you doing, Jacob?”

He turned and pulled her into his arms. Nova subconsciously wanted to struggle. He suddenly sighed in a soft tone, "Don't move. I need a hug."

Not knowing if it was her illusion. Nova felt he was a little vulnerable. She couldn't help thinking that when her mother died, she was so vulnerable like him and felt that the whole world had collapsed. She reached out and patted him on the shoulder and whispered, “Don’t be sad. She had become an angel, protecting you.”

Jacob was surprised, and hugged her harder. After a while, he said, “I once promised my mother that I would bring my girlfriend to her. Nova, that’s to say you agree, right?”

What he said pulled her up short. She pushed him away and saw not sadness but smile on his face.

She was so annoyed, pointed to his nose and asked, “Jacob, how could you be so cheeky?”

He grabbed her hand and kissed on it which made her felt like an electric shock. She immediately withdrew her hand with her face blushing.

The man laughed in a low voice. The moonlight sprinkled on his cheek which made the outline clearer and his face more handsome. He smiled gently and leniently. Nova felt like she was on the spell. At this moment, she suddenly wanted to nod her head and agree. Maybe it was time to start another relationship. At least she couldn't lie to herself that she didn’t care because he really had an unknown attraction to her.

“Admit it. You want to sleep with me.”

Jacob suddenly approached her ear and said some ambiguous and sexual words like this. Nova pushed him away and walked out angrily. He laughed out loud, but didn't come forwards to chase her. He looked back at the tombstone next to his mother. It was a handsome young man in it.

Nova waited in the car for a long time before he stepped on the dew going back. His expression was a little serious. Nova guessed it was because he thought of his mother.

“Send me home.”

She said gently.

However, Jacob opened the top of the cabriolet, put down the back of the chair. He said, "Few people in Y City know that the best place to see the stars is actually in this cemetery."

Nova subconsciously raised her head. He was right. The sky here seemed to be bigger and closer. The moon was very pale. And the stars were dazzling. It was late autumn, she had seldom seen such a starry sky for a long time. She couldn't help relaxing her body and lying down. The wind was cool, and her face became a little cold, but she was very comfortable. She turned her head to watch Jacob. He was looking at the starry sky. Nova suddenly smiled and whispered, “It is said that when people die they will become stars. Maybe that’s why the sky here is starry.”

“Do you believe it?”
