Jacob sat there quietly. Last time in the hospital, he had found that his father was not as hale and
hearty as before. He was so busy that he had a lot of things to deal with every day. Since he got
married, he bought a villa alone and went to his father's house two times a year at most.
His father hadn't remarried since his mother died. As a matter of fact, Jacob admired his father's deep
affection.
It was undeniable that those who had lost their partners and found another partner could not all not
love each other. However, those who had lost their partners but were unwilling to continue must love
each other very much.
For Jacob, his father was like a tough man, who was powerful and never bothered about women. But
now, the hero was old and was entangled with illness.
When he came back to the company again, he was handy with everything. He approved the
documents every day and knew the latest trend of the company. He almost had nothing to do.
All of a sudden, someone knocked on the door. In a soft voice, Sara said, "come in, please."
The man was holding a large bouquet of roses, which were sprinkled with water, delicate and beautiful.
They looked extremely beautiful.
"Hello, Miss Sara. There is a man ordered a bunch of roses for you. Please sign for it." The deliverer
wore a hat and smiled, looking very kind.
Every day, many people used flowers to express their love. When one received the flowers, she
showed a happy expression on her face, which was the happiest time of the deliverer of the day,
because he witnessed the happiness of others.
However, Sara was somewhat suspicious. Expressionlessly, she took the roses, thanked him, and put
the flowers aside.
The deliverer sighed and left.
Outside the office, there was an uproar. They wondered who sent so many roses to Sara this time.
Some girls were envious and sent messages to their friends. They even discussed it in detail.
After the flower deliverer left, Sara walked to the side of the roses. There was a card on the top. She
reached out and took a look at it. It was written in graceful handwriting, "Dear Sara, I hope you can be
happy every day.
Taking a deep breath, Sara thought they were probably sent by Jacob. But how could Jacob do such a
romantic thing to her? Shouldn't he try his best to please Alice?
If it weren't Jacob, who else would it be? 'Is it Ethan?' Sara wondered. He hadn't contacted her since
last time. It was unlikely.
Sara couldn't figure out who sent the roses. Beautiful flowers made Sara depressed.
Sara put the flowers on the sofa beside the office and sat down on the chair, thinking about it all the
time.
Sara asked her assistant to make herself a cup of coffee. The assistant brought it in and put it on the
table before going out.
Taking a sip of coffee, Sara kept thinking about it. If it weren't Jacob, wouldn't she be embarrassed to
call him? If so, what should she do.
While she was lost in various fancies and conjectures. Beautiful rose were like a time bomb, making
her restless.
While she was hesitating, her phone rang.
Taking a look at the caller ID, Sara saw it was from Jacob. What a coincidence?
"Hello, what's up?" Sara's tone was so calm. She almost asked about the flowers.
"Sara, are you feeling better now? Many problems arose from the divorce news last time. I'm sorry to
cause you trouble. Although I know it's Alice, I still don't have evidence. There are many more
problems." There was an obvious sense of guilt in Jacob's tone. It was the first time that he had felt
sorry for Sara in so many years.
"Let bygones be bygones. I don't want to tangle with them anymore. In the end, everyone got hurt."
Sara's eyes were full of anger. For so many years, Jacob had never admitted his mistakes. But today,
he did. However, what was the point whether he did or not.
Jacob was a little sad for a moment. "Sara, can't you give me another chance? You know, I'm not good
at expressing myself."
Hearing this, Sara couldn't help but feel numb all over. What did Jacob mean? Didn't Alice say that she
was pregnant? Didn't they get married soon?
"I don't know what you are talking about, Jacob. If you think I will make trouble for you, don't worry. I'm
not that kind of person." Sara's heart ached. She wondered who had caused this and how she had
come to this.
Jacob kept silent for a long time, as if he had summoned up great courage. "Sara. Can we start over? "
Sara was shocked. What happened to Jacob today? Was he possessed by a ghost?
However, the first thing came to Sara's mind was not to say yes, but to refuse. No matter how much
she loved him, it was irreversible.
"It's too late, Jacob. You have many chances in the past four years. You can say these words, but you
haven't. Do you know what people look like? Those injuries are like a knife, leaving an indelible scar in
the heart every time. Now, a heart is already full of scars. Tell me how to recover? " Sara choked with
sobs.
What she feared most was not others' domineering scolds, but the grievances.
Jacob was panicked, but he still pretended to be calm. "Don't cry, Sara. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I just
hope that you can stop being with others. Please give me some time."
Sara's mind was in a mess. Was Jacob expressing his love? She had given up him, but why she
recalled the time she spent with him?
Suppressing her emotions, Sara cleared her throat and said, "Not long ago, I visited a master. Do you
know what master said? "
Jacob's heart sank. He had a bad feeling. It didn't matter what the master said. Would Sara want to be
a nun? It was possible.
"What did he say?" Jacob changed his hand to hold the phone. Sitting in the meeting room, his palms
were sweating, even in such a cold day. Perhaps it was because of the high temperature of the air
conditioner in the room, or perhaps he was too nervous, Jacob had to admit that he was now like a
prisoner waiting for a lighter sentence.
"The master said that he has been looking for his destined person. Besides, most of the people who
have become monks have reached the peak of the mortal world, but I can't meet the requirements. So I
still have to continue to fight in the world of chaos. Maybe I can't escape such a fate all my life. " Sara
said in a low voice. She didn't know if she had remembered something sad.
"Well, don't be afraid." Jacob breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, the master emphasized again and again that everything is predestined. Don't force it."
Looking out of the window, Sara saw a butterfly was flying happily. It seemed to see the bunch of roses
and wanted to fly in.
Sara stood up and opened the window. Butterflies flew in. The beautiful scene was pleasing to the
eyes. However, the beautiful scenery on such a good day could not be shared with others.
"Sara. You don't have to take what the master said to heart. Just listen to me." Jacob also wrote lightly.
However, his words irritated Sara. That was why they agreed to part because of differences of opinion.
"Believe it or not. I think what the master said makes sense. I was too stubborn in the past and pursued
something wrong, which led to the current situation. " Sara raised her voice, as if provoking him.
Jacob frowned and rubbed his temples. "Sara, I want to go home to see my father this weekend.
Please go with me."
Sara was stunned. "Okay. For the sake of your dad, I can go. "
