CHAPTER 158

It had been a while since Jacob stayed in the villa from morning to afternoon. Everyone else had already finished eating, but he didn’t. Usually, Kathy would have given him bed coffee every morning, but today, she didn’t. Not just that, but no maid came to clean his room, either.

Though Selena and the rest had eaten breakfast, he just couldn’t because Ryan was also there. It just felt too awkward for him to be eating with his family when Ryan was around, as Jacob was used to being the leader of the family. Now, there was Ryan on one side and Selena on the other side. Both of them looked superior, and he was finding it hard to digest.

There was no food or even drinking water in his room; the refrigerator was empty. So he was quite hungry. He waited until lunch, hoping Ryan wouldn’t come downstairs and eat with the rest, but he did. Again, Jacob couldn’t come out of his room. He hoped at least Kathy or Amber would bring him food, but they didn’t even cast a glance toward his room. How quickly can people change? Only a week ago, they would have their full attention on him whenever he was around, but now they were acting like he didn’t even exist. However, he didn’t blame them. After all, even his family members were treating him the same.

He lay down on his bed and tried to get some sleep, but then trains and city buses kept roaming in his belly. The vibrations and noises kept growing louder and louder by the minute.

“Ah, screw this. I can’t wait anymore.” He hoped that his wife would at least bring him something to eat, but he hit his limit.

Wanting to order food online, he grabbed his mobile. There was a text message from Fabio Romano: Because of our relationship, I will wait until your movies release, but if your movies fail, then I want exclusive rights to some of your other movies.
