Ex-wife, Please Come Back novel Chapter 135

Alice was looking after the shop in the jewelry store and she felt bored, so she sent a message to Thompson. Since last time, she had been waiting for Jacob to contact her. But after Jacob left, there was no news about him.

Alice: What's going on recently? Did Jacob say anything about what happened last time?

Thompson was having a meeting. He planned to reorganize Alice's shop and make it his second one. Alice looked shrewd, but in fact, she was not. As long as it was involved with Jacob, Alice would panic. Thompson was a good master-killer.

He didn't reply to Alice's message immediately. He knew that she couldn't wait to get the information she wanted to know when she was in a hurry. He just wanted to tantalize her.

Never show your trump card to others at once. If you meet a good person, he will only feel that you are honest, but if you meet a bad person, he will only feel that you are stupid. Thompson now felt that Alice was silly. The smart impression she had left to him had already been worn out. Her tricks could only deceive people like Jacob.

After the meeting, Thompson went back to his office, put his feet on the desk and asked his assistant to make a cup of coffee for him.

Alice held the phone in her hand. Now she seemed to have grasped Thompson as her last life-saving straw, and there was no way back. But she was annoyed by Thompson's indifference. Thompson was a bastard who dropped his benefactor as soon as his help is not required. Alice felt so angry when the phone finally rang.

Alice looked at the phone in her hand, with a delight look in her eyes, but her anger had not dissipated yet. She answered in a blaming tone, "My dear partner, have you forgotten that I'm here?"

With a smile at the corners of his mouth, Thompson said, "What are you talking about? I was in a meeting just now, so it was inconvenient to make a phone call. Are you angry?"

Although Alice was a little angry, she didn't dare to say anything. "No, I thought you had forgotten me. By the way, what happened to the thing I asked you? Jacob didn't call me either. Besides, it won't affect you much, right?" She asked gently.

Thompson narrowed his eyes. That was what he was most worried about. He had made it obvious to Jacob that it was done by him, but Jacob didn't respond to him nor took any action. But Thompson wouldn't be so naive to think that Jacob would let him go.

The calmer it was, the stronger the upcoming storm would be. Recently, Thompson even added a few more bodyguards.

"Jacob didn't do anything. Although he was very angry when I called him, he didn't seem to be hooked." Thompson tried to probe Alice.

After a pause, Alice said in an anxious tone, "Thompson, we have made an agreement that you would take responsibility for me... Now you have got what you want. If you fail to fulfill what you have promised me... I won't let you go."

A smile appeared on Thompson's face. 'Is this the way a rabbit gets anxious?' He thought. "Don't worry. I didn't say that Jacob didn't believe it. It was just that he appeared very calm. You have been together for seven years. He misunderstood you. Why didn't he call you? Such a person is worse than me, right?"

Thompson's sarcastic voice came through the phone. It sounded very spicy for Alice. "Don't compare yourself with him. Please pay attention to your identity."

Thompson frowned and raised his voice by eight degrees. He couldn't help but put down his legs on the desk. "Why not? Let me tell you, there are many men who are more outstanding than Jacob. You are really keen on the insignificant person. Why am I not as good as Jacob? Tell me!"

Thompson was furious not only because he was not allowed to compete with Jacob by Alice, but also because he thought of Sara. They both were playboys, why Jacob could attract women, while he couldn't even get the favor of Sara?
