Chapter 20 The Bride Fell into The Water
“Boss, the Hall Group is going to go bankrupt. If you want to take over it, I think it’s the best time now.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Eric watched the news then said to Jacob.
Jacob glanced at him.
“And then I put money in it and continue to lose money?”
“So you’re just making fun of them by doing so, aren’t you?”
“Can I?”
Jacob sat up and squinted, looking at Ayan in the screen.
“I just want to know what a man will be after he falls from the haven to the hell.”
Eric shivered. Evil humor!
“Are you ready for what I asked you to prepare?”
“Yes, but are you sure to do that, boss? After all, it’s a wedding. You will steal too much the spotlight of the bridegroom by doing so.”
In spite of saying so, his face was full of banter.
Jacob gave him a glance and said.
“Are you aware that you are too talkative as an assistant?”
Eric shrugged his shoulders and said.
“It’s my duty to know my boss’s thoughts at all times.”
Before Jacob spoke, he said.
“Boss, Miss Graham is coming to see you this afternoon.”
Then he straightened his glasses.
“I told her that the young master gets ill, and he keeps missing her.”
Jacob’s eyes narrowed and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
“Next month, you can apply for a raise.”
Eric straightened his glasses again. It’s true that a smart man will be stupid when he fell in love with someone.
In the hospital, Jacob was staring at a fruit basket with a black face.
While biting into the apple, the little guy shook his head unfathomably. After throwing the eaten apple to the garbage can, he took an orange.
“Dad, you are so stupid. I won’t be cheated by your clumsy trick, not to mention pretty sister.”
Jacob narrowed his eyes slowly.
He had never been so patient with a woman!
The little guy shivered, and gently put down the orange. Stretching out his little hand, he pulled Jacob’s pants. He whispered with a flattery smile.
“Dad, can I have a longer holiday if I help you pursue pretty sister?”
Jacob looked down at him and said nothing.
“She returned all the dresses?”
Jacob’s voice was faint, without clear emotion.
“Who returned it?”
Simon at the other end of the phone was puzzled, so he said.
“Anyway the five dress are returned, with a card reading thanks.” Jacob held the phone more tightly. Then he hung up with a straight face.
He was at the age of 31, with a high IQ and EQ. If he didn’t understand what Nova meant, he hadn’t lived for over 30 years. From now on, he had been trying to develop their relationship at a steady pace. He had been so patient with her, but she was still scared away. For a moment, he got angry. There was no way for her to leave him. With a cold face, he was about to leave, but he was stopped by a familiar voice.
“Doctor, is there no other way?”
“Miss Graham, you have had a curettage operation before, and the interval time is too short from your pregnancy. The uterine wall is too thin, and you will be in danger if you give a rash birth. It’s better to get it aborted. Besides, you are still young, and you can have a baby one or two years later when you are well enough?”
The doctor was a little impatient, and worried that she was having a baby at the expense of her life.
“Doctor, to be frank, my mother-in-law doesn’t like me. Because I’m pregnant now, she has agreed that her son marries me. I couldn’t give up this baby. Please, help me protect this baby, no matter how much it costs.”
The doctor’s steps paused and he said after a long while.
“I’ll try my best, but you must come to the hospital in case of any abnormality.”
Ella was relieved,
“Thank you. I hope you can keep it a secret. I don’t want my fiancé to worry.”
Seeing the doctor leave, Ella ripped off the report in her hand, throwing it into the garbage can next to her. She looked around, and then walked away.
Jacob came out from the corner and squinted at the inspection report in the garbage can.
Ewan and Ella’s wedding was held on the Robinson family’s private cruise ship. Even if the Robinsons were not satisfied with Ella to be their daughter-in-law, they wanted to make a gay wedding for their only son. So this wedding was as great as that last time when the bride was Nova.
It was a little dark, and there had been increased activity on the cruise ship. As the main character of this wedding, Ella claimed her throne. No matter what others thought of her, she had marry into the Robinson family and become a woman envied by countless women.
Ella was really happy. She came back to the Graham family with her mother 12 years ago. She always kept in mind Nova’s eyes at that time. She looked down at her as if she was looking at something tiny. Her chin was a little raised. She led a happy and rich life like a princess. But Ella was hidden by her mother as if she was something that couldn’t live in sunshine. She was jealous of Nova and her jealousy grew day by day.
Ella looked at the attractive woman next to the fence, and quietly walked to her.
“Sister, you lose.”
Looking at the firework in the sky, Nova was slightly distracted. Hearing what Ella said, she paused. Then she turned to this girl who had not been green, saying nothing.
“Dad has promised me that I can work in the Graham Group after I get married. You don’t know that, right?”
Nova’s expression was slightly rigid. She didn’t expect her father to do so. She suddenly felt sad for her mother but was glad that her mother didn’t see that her beloved man destroyed her last reminder.
“Competing with your mother, my mother won; with you, I won!”
Seeing Nova’s expression, Ella was very satisfied and became more complacent. When she wanted to leave here and passed by Nova, she heard Nova said slowly in a low, almost inaudible voice.
“I don’t have to compete.”
Ella’s face instantly twisted.
“I don’t have to compete, because it originally belongs to me.” This was what Nova exactly meant.
Ella hated her like that so much. She suddenly reached out to push Nova into the sea.
At that second, Nova suddenly turned the head and saw Ella’s hand pushing her. Subconsciously, Nova grabbed her arm. Ella got in panic, but she couldn’t take her force back. She just screamed and fell into the water with Nova.
“The bride fell into the water.”
Someone yelled.
Ewan was shocked. He dropped the cup and ran over.
Ewan jumped into the water to save his bride. After a while, Ewan swam up with Ella in his arms. Others around quickly pulled them up. At this time, someone suddenly cried out again.
“I just saw two people fall into the water.”
Ewan’s fingers paused, and Ella suddenly put her arms around his neck, weeping in a low voice.
