Ex-wife, Please Come Back

Chapter 212 Generalist



Chapter 212 Generalist

When you were five years old, you could run to a field one kilometer away to catch a butterfly; when you were ten years old, you could search over the street and alley for an ice cream.

At the age of seventeen, you could go to a strange city alone for the one you loved; at the age of twenty-seven, you would find someone to live for a lifetime casually.

This was a reflection of many people's life, but not Jim's.

Maybe not just Sara, everyone wouldn't believe that there should be such a nice man in the world.

No, not just man. Anyone who could treat his or her lover as well as the others so nice would gain the respect from other people. Chole was really a lucky person. In fact, she might be the luckiest person despite her miserable life.

"Sara, I didn't know there should be someone in the world who could love another one to such extent." Jacob stared at the distance seriously. His heart was on Sara, but his eyes could not be unscrupulous.

He had already lost her. So he couldn't be unscrupulous. Love made Jacob clumsy. A man who was addicted to love was a clumsy man.

Jacob didn't even know what he could do to cheer Sara up. He had never thought about this before.

"Yes. The troubles of the company should be over now. " Sara felt much more relieved. Fortunately, she had helped him.

"Thank you." Jacob's heart was surging, but his tone was much calmer. He was always cold outside and warm inside. He just couldn't perform enthusiastically.

"Why are you so polite?" Raising her eyebrows intentionally, Sara pretended to be angry. In the past, only Jacob had the right to be angry, but she had never been serious about it.

"Shall I take you to dinner?" Jacob asked tentatively. He was afraid that as soon as this matter was settled, he would not find a reason to make such an invitation anymore.

What a contradiction! On the one hand, he would like to see the problem solved as soon as possible. On the other hand, he hoped that the problem could always be there.

Perhaps that was why Jacob felt himself ridiculous. He didn't know since when he had become like this.

So indecisive and always thought too much before each move. The reason why he had become like this was that Sara was no longer predictable for him.

"No, I have to go home now. I'm tired. " Sara didn't mean to disassociate himself from her by refusing the invitation. But as Chole's miserable narrative was still re-echoed in her mind. She was not in the mood to eat.

"Okay, let me drive you home then." The disappointment in Jacob's heart was self-evident. Once the matter was over, he wouldn't even have the chance to invite her to dinner.

"No, thanks. You can deal with the following things first and leave me alone." With a big smile on her face, Sara acted as if she could be fine alone.

Jacob saw her sitting into a taxi, feeling frustrated.

She just couldn't wait to leave him. Didn't she want to stay for one more minute?

Without looking back, Sara left in a high spirit. Such a scene was not that strange to Jacob. However, Jacob used to be the one who left in a high spirit before. Jacob stepped on the gas and sped in the opposite direction of where Sara had left.

The scenery on the street flashed backward quickly, and Jacob put aside the unhappiness just now. Has this matter really been solved?

Maybe it was, but everything seemed unreal. Now they were waiting for the police to come to a conclusion about the result of the accident and then hold a press conference.

Everything seemed to be settled without any doubt.

But Jacob was feeling upset. He called James, but didn't go to the company.

Today, he made an appointment with the man who wore a peaked cap last time.

He thought he wouldn't be able to contact him recently. But now it seemed that it was necessary to meet him again.

Because Jacob wanted to find out what had happened to Alice in the past four years. He was unwilling to investigate it before because he thought it would damage his feelings for her.

But now things were different. He wanted to investigate it earlier, but the explosion had delayed his schedule.

Besides, Thompson seemed to disappear in this period. Only Jacob knew what had happened. Perhaps it was hard for him to protect himself now.

The man in peaked cap was known as well-informed and was called "Generalist". It was said that he knew all the news happened in legal and illegal world.

Thanks to the help of James, Jacob was able to contact with this man. To be honest, in Jacob's eyes, James was the omnipotent one. No one had ever been as omnipotent as James.

Jacob parked his car at the roadside and looked around at the scattered crowd. He looked up at the buildings around him.

Every time they met, the places chosen by "Generalist" were always so devious that Jacob could only find it with the help of GPS. Jacob tidied up his clothes and felt relaxed. All the troubles would soon come to an end. He even felt that the spring was getting closer.

After searching for a long time, he finally found the place they were supposed to meet. Jacob took a deep breath and walked into an inconspicuous shop with his head down.

"Generalist" must be a man who knew how to enjoy his life. Otherwise, he wouldn't choose a restaurant every time.

"Three pounds of beef, please, and half a kilo of liquor. " "Generalist" said to the shop owner loudly when he saw Jacob.

"Got it. Just a minute. " No waiter came out. They just informed the kitchen through the intercom at the counter.

"Three pounds of pickled beef, half a kilo of liquor." The boss's loud voice shocked Jacob, but he didn't feel annoyed.

He felt a touch of the passion of life here, through the rising smoke and fragrance. It was something fresh and strange to Jacob.

"Long time no see." Jacob suddenly felt that he was becoming a little artistic. It was the place to enjoy meat and alcohol, but he began to be moved by the atmosphere.

"Have you solved the company's problems?" "Generalist" started the conversation, looked harmless. He got information flooding from all directions every day, but he knew how to sort out useful

information.

Some information would be useful in the future, but it was not obvious now.

He was good at dealing with all kinds of information regardless of the channels to get them. As a result, he seldom exposed himself to the public. And as his reputation grew, sometimes he would not take orders from strangers.

And even if he received the order, he wouldn't accept the money. Unless there was something or someone that particularly touched him, he would not move.

It was said that when he was young, he was arrogant and had many enemies. But no one dared to do anything to "Generalist", so far.

The news he got was always priceless, and there was no need for him to attract customers. Lots of people would come to him automatically.

Some people would find him when they divorced or cheated on each other, and some people would find him for deeper hatred for the others. As the number coming to him accumulates, he was getting used to the situation.

Therefore, no matter how rich and powerful his customer was, he would judge whether he liked the job or not and whether he wanted to accept it.

Whether he would take the job was all depended on his mood. After all, he had earned enough money. It was true that all walks of life are equal, one can always achieve wealth and fame no matter which way you choose. As long as your skill was proficient.

Due to the relationship with James, Jacob had the opportunity to find "Generalist" for help.

It was lucky for Jacob as the man was not usually available. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
