Sara closed her eyes, immersing herself in Jacob's embrace. She was a little sleepy before, but when
she walked out of the room with Jacob, the morning's fresh air quickly rejuvenated her.
"What do you think? Is this better than the previous villa?" Jacob lowered his head and whispered in
her ear.
"It's good." Sara nodded her head in approval. She really enjoyed such morning leisure time. It gave
her some sort of peace and allowed her to sort out her mind and feelings.
A gentle morning breeze suddenly blew past, making a mess of her hair. Jacob smiled and gently
smoothed her hair.
"Aren't you going to work today?" Sara asked softly. Although she actually hoped she could stay in
Jacob's embrace like this forever, she was also a bit worried that there would be problems if he stayed
here too long.
"Shh, watch the sunrise," Jacob once again whispered in her ear. His finger was pointed at the horizon.
Sara moved her line of sight following his pointer and gazed into the distance. At first, there was
nothing but some reddish hues in the sky. As time passed by, the sun gradually rose above the horizon.
The two of them gazed at the sunrise in silence, seemingly mesmerized by the scene.
Only part of the circular sun showed up in the beginning, but its whole body soon came into their sights.
It rose slowly and hung in the sky like a big, bright, yellow disc. The whole process, from the moment it
showed up on the horizon until it got high in the eastern sky, happened quickly and without any
hindrance.
"It's so beautiful. I didn't expect I'd get to see the sunrise here." Sara took Jacob's hand in hers and
gently stroked it.
"Yes, it's beautiful. The scenery is beautiful, and so are you. Being with you like this is the happiest
moment in my life," Jacob said. While what he said might sound corny, he was sincere.
He really thought she was beautiful, and he just wanted her to know that.
Sara smiled but made no comment. Instead of contradicting Jacob, she'd rather enjoy this peaceful
moment in silence. Spending time with him and being embraced like this was enough to make her
happy, so she had nothing to complain about.
Once the sun was quite high in the eastern sky, Jacob took Sara out to get some breakfast, and never
once did he mention anything about work.
Now that James helped him manage the company, he felt like every day was a day off. With the newly
announced rules, everyone should be behaving cautiously these days. The company should also run
smoothly for a long time.
Thus, Jacob just wanted to focus on his relationship with Sara now.
At that thought, he stepped harder on the pedal gas, speeding away on the wide, empty road. Maybe
because today's weather was warm, the road wasn't as hazy as it was in winter.
In winter, people always joked that they lived in the fairyland because the misty cold air was just like
something out of the fairyland. Jacob never had problems with their statement.
People had to learn to find happiness in bitterness. If they couldn't and could only wallow in their
bitterness, they'd eventually get sick. Some would be sick mentally, while some others physically.
Every person definitely had some kind of obsession in their heart. It might be about anything. It'd be
very hard for those obsessions to disappear once they were born.
There were all kinds of people in this world. Some people spent their whole lives pursuing vain things,
while some others strived to make a good name for themselves.
Jacob and Sara too were just some of the people living in this world. After everything they'd gone
through, Jacob finally realized that cherishing people he currently had around him was more important
than anything else.
The two people randomly chose a porridge restaurant, which seemed to have a lot of customers inside.
Maybe because it was rush hour, everyone seemed to eat in a hurry.
Upon staring at the busy scene before them for a while, Jacob suddenly looked back at Sara and
smiled.
"In fact, I really want to be one of them. Running a small business is good too. I can go out with my
friends at any time and buy things I want without having to consider much. Although that way, I may
have to work hard for a long time to buy a gift for my girlfriend, I'm willing. I think such a life is also
considered a free life."
Jacob paused to take a sip of the porridge in his bowl.
"I used to think wealth was a constraint on me, so I didn't care much about it." Jacob heaved a soft
sigh. People always thought that the grass was greener on the other side.
"Now, I realize that I really didn't know how to be satisfied. There must be many people like me. We
always think that the unknown is the best, but we forget that what we have might already be the best
for us." Jacob looked around, sweeping his gaze over the diners.
"Well, it's good that you understand now. I hope you'll never forget it," Sara said awkwardly. For some
reason, everything Jacob said these days was making her uncomfortable.
"Let's do some exercises together later, okay?" Jacob asked. When he told Sara that she had gained
weight last time, she said she wanted to go exercising, but they ended up not going.
It was boring to exercise alone, so he was going to tag along. He wanted to keep her company and
encourage her.
"Where are we going?" Sara looked up from her porridge, wondering what Jacob's intention was.
Nevertheless, considering that she had indeed gained some weight recently, doing some exercises
was a good thing for her.
"Let's go to the gym when we finish breakfast. I thought the stadium is a good choice too, but there are
too many people there, so it'd be safer for us to go to the gym." Jacob took another sip of porridge. His
every move seemed to ooze a noble vibe.
Sara nodded her head. Maybe because she was affected by Jacob's bright mood, she felt a lot happier
now.
Birds of a feather flocked together. People who were optimistic would encourage each other, and
people who were pessimistic would drag each other down.
Upon finishing their porridge, Jacob took Sara to a nearby gym. He'd learned about the area well
before he bought the villa.
There were many villas nearby. Although they were on the outskirts of the city, their area was a well-
known rich area. The security and the facilities here were naturally guaranteed. If someone asked
about a facility it didn't have, that facility would be ready within a week.
Therefore, what the residents should consider wasn't how to entertain themselves but how to make
more money.
The gym they chose looked classic but elegant. The two of them walked in hand in hand.
By the time the staff finished giving them a brief introduction to the gym's facilities, Jacob was already
familiar with most of the equipment. Sara got on the treadmill, looking very enthusiastic.
After running for about ten minutes, however, she was already drenched in sweats and was gasping for
breath. Feeling hot and sticky, she took off her coat and gave it to Jacob. She felt a little embarrassed
and got tongue-tied when she saw Jacob's blank gaze.
She was indeed a little fatter now. Although she wasn't overweight, she still had some extra around her
stomach.
"You're not in the best of health, so you shouldn't overdo it. We'll continue again in the future," Jacob,
who was sitting in front of the elliptical machine with his chin rested on his hand watching Sara,
suddenly said.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with Sara's weight. She just didn't get enough physical activities,
hence her poor health.
"Alright. I'll exercise more in the future, but you've got to accompany me." Although Sara said so, she
was still running on the treadmill and didn't look like she'd stop.
Her hair was tied into a ponytail and was swaying on her back as she ran. It made her look livelier.
"Okay." Jacob also smiled and continued to watch her.
People liked to work out these days. There were many people in this gym, but because the gym was
very large, their presence didn't really affect the two of them.
Jacob couldn't help but take a deep breath when he caught sight of the well-built figure of the person
next to him. People really spared no effort to make themselves look better. He really admired people
who maintained their figures and exercised every day.
No one would deny other people's efforts, and those who worked hard were naturally worthy of
admiration.
