Her Precious Baby

Seeing Angeline’s tacit acquiescence, Jacob felt an indescribable tightness in his chest. He immediately grabbed his cup of coffee and finished it in one gulp.

Only then did he gradually come to his senses.

“Angie, stop lying to yourself. If you like him, why don’t you get together with him? I guess that sly old fox has a lot of female admirers around him. Are you not afraid that he’ll fall in love with someone else?” probed Jacob.

Am I not afraid that he’ll fall in love with someone else?

Realization dawned upon Angeline when she heard Jacob’s question. That thought caused her heart to ache as if it was being gripped tightly.

Indeed, she was afraid.

She was very afraid that Evander might fall for another woman.

At that moment, Jacob’s words seemed to have awakened Angeline. It was then she made an unprecedented decision.

“Thank you, Jacob.”

With that, Angeline hurriedly got up from her seat. As she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered the reason for her meeting with Jacob.

She stood rooted to the spot and hesitated for a long time.

In the end, Angeline finally spoke up. “Actually, I came to you today to ask for a favor. It’s a very complicated process. Can you spare me a night and help me to promote beauty devices in a livestream?”

“Is that it?”

Angeline pursed her lips nervously, fearing that Jacob would turn her down. Clutching the corners of her shirt, she informed, “Well, you only need to show your face. Just name your price, and I’ll pay you.”

“Angie, you’re still too kind to me.”

Jacob also got up from his seat, looking at Angeline with a smile. “Tell me when you’ve set a date, and I’ll be there. Also, you don’t have to pay me.”

“Thank you,” Angeline uttered gratefully.

Her eyes were filled with emotions. She was at a loss for words, as though there was a lump in her throat.

Angeline had always treated Jacob like a child. She never thought he would do something like
