Chapter 116 Misunderstandings Are More Difficult to Explain
"I've only coaxed you."
When this man whispered sweet words, he could always make her blush.
Sarah pursed her lips and hung her head slightly, "I told you last time that only one sort of Chinese medicine is not found. This medicine is very rare, so there is little hope." Hearing the last sentence, Jacob held Sarah tightly.
"In front of death, we are too insignificant. Jacob, if you want to leave, there's still time to leave." Sarah's eyelashes trembled slightly.
Every time the poison attacked her body, she was very strong. Why did she feel so wrong this time?
"Fool, don't talk nonsense. I will be with you wherever you are."
Jacob gently wiped away the tears from Sarah's eyes.
After a short rest, Sarah went to the dressing room to change clothes.
Jacob's mobile phone kept buzzing in his pocket. He was so upset that he took it out to have a look and went out of the dressing room.
"Why is there nobody in your apartment?" Mrs. Jones's voice came from the other end of the phone, with some questions.
"I'm outside now." A bad feeling rose in his mind. "Did you go to my apartment this afternoon?"
Mrs. Jones was standing at the door of Jacob's apartment. Because she could not unlock the door, she called Jacob.
"Because you haven't been home these days, and you seldom go to the company recently, I am afraid that something was wrong with you."
Mainly because Old Mr. Jones suspected that Jacob had hidden someone in his apartment recently, and she came to confirm.
Jacob guessed this reason and frowned unhappily. "Mom, I'm very busy. Please go back early. I can't leave now."
"I know you are busy, but no matter how busy you are, don't forget to go home for dinner." Mrs. Jones earnestly advised, "Take that girl back for dinner sometime."
"Who's that girl? Mom, I have something else to do. I'll hang up first." Jacob kept his statement intentionally vague and then directly hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone, Mrs. Jones rarely showed a displeased expression.
When she got on the bus, she ordered the driver, "Go to find out what Jacob has been doing recently."
"I understand."
......
In Wendi Hotel of Dover.
Jacob booked a box and took Sarah and Matthew to have dinner. Before the dishes were served, Jacob said that another person would come.
"Who else is coming?" Sarah glanced at Jacob in surprise.
"You'll know later." He took a meaningful look at her, which made Sarah puzzled.
Matthew also looked at Jacob and complained, "It's scary that you made this so mysterious."
Men didn't reply with cold eyebrows and eyes.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time..." A familiar and hippy voice rang from the door, and his voice stopped suddenly after looking around all the people in the box. "Miss Sarah?"
Joshua was surprised to find the familiar figure sitting beside Jacob. What's more, she and Jacob were holding hands.
"Hey, brother, did you succeed in pursuing her?" Joshua sat down beside Matthew, with his arm on his shoulder, in a casual manner.
Matthew looked at him in disgust. A smell of disinfectant filled the air around him. "You can be surprised. But why do you put your hand on my shoulder?"
"Hey, you dare to dislike me." Joshua deliberately approached and brought the smell of disinfectant to him, "I'll let you smell it."
Looking at their childish actions, Sarah giggled, "Long time no see, Mr. Joshua."
Joshua waved his hand, "I have a premonition that you will fall in love sooner or later."
"So I have to appreciate your premonition?" Jacob sneered and closed the menu. "Look at the menu with Matthew and order what you want to eat."
"You three have a good relationship?" Sarah said the question she held in her heart.
Before that, she only knew that Matthew and Jacob were cooperative, but she did not expect that he also knew Joshua.
"Matthew and I grew up together, and Jacob and I are old friends for many years. So we became familiar with each other over time." Joshua answered for Jacob holding the menu. Sarah nodded thoughtfully.
"You should have met Natalie, right?" Joshua took a look at Matthew. Matthew winked at him crazily.
But Joshua was too stupid to get his intention. He said to himself, "But don't worry. Natalie has nothing to do with Jacob, and..."
The rest of the words were stopped by Matthew, who looked at Sarah. "He often speaks freely. For fear that you may misunderstand, I stop him."
Sarah showed a faint smile, but in her heart, she was unhappy.
It was easier to misunderstand if someone didn't finish speaking for fear of misunderstanding.
Sarah buried the strange things in her heart and changed the topic, "What's delicious here? You should recommend it to me!"
As she promoted the atmosphere, the two brothers also changed the topic with laughter.
Jacob, sitting next to Sarah, was deep in thought. Should he tell her something now?

After dinner, Jacob and Sarah returned home and found a thermos pot at the door of the apartment.
Sarah picked up the thermos pot and looked at Jacob in surprise, "This..."
"My mother came here this afternoon," Jacob explained and calmly unlocked the door. "She heard that you were here, so she cooked soup especially. Would you like to have a taste?" "OK." Without much thought, Sarah went in, "I'll warm the soup up."
Jacob handed Sarah the thermos and followed her in, "I'll go upstairs and change my clothes."
"OK."
Sarah took the thermos to the kitchen, opened the lid, and was stunned when She saw what was inside.
It could be seen that the soup was made with a lot of care and effort.
Sarah's heart seemed to fall into the abyss.
She blankly poured the soup into the pot, heated it for a while, and then gave Jacob a bowl of soup.
When Jacob came down after changing his clothes, he saw that the restaurant was empty and there was only one bowl on the table quietly.
Jacob frowned when he saw the soup in the bowl.
He walked to Sarah's bedroom door, with fingers curled up.
She, maybe angry?
Mrs. Jones's attitude was not clear at that time. In addition, they had not been together for long, and there were still many problems waiting for them in the future. After hesitating for a moment, Jacob knocked at the door.
"Sarah, did you fall asleep?"
