Chapter 255

Chapter 255:

Eileen’s mouth twitched as she watched Jacob act like that while holding Phoebe. She dipped her head and gave a soft cough. Jacob seemed too needy.

Phoebe had reached her limit with Jacob’s antics. With a slap to his head, she snapped, “Enough already. If you keep acting so repulsive, I’m sending you home!”

“What did I do wrong?” Jacob looked up and glanced meaningfully at Bryan. “It’s good to express one’s feelings, okay? I’m not like someone who is too stubborn to say anything.” Nearby, Bryan leaned against a window, a cigarette dangling from his fingers.

Eileen’s recent rejection had indeed soured his mood, yet he couldn’t tolerate Jacob’s smugness.
