My Wealthy Husband

Chapter 22 Jacob, This Is...?

“What exactly do you want?”

Nova couldn't keep calm as usual. She blushed with shame, and was annoyed at her carelessness.

Jacob smiled and lifted up her head with his finger.

He said slowly, “I want to fuck you again.”

In Nova's nearly 26 years of life, there were countless pursuers. Thus, she of course knew she was charming. However, no one dared to say such humiliation to her. He was such a gangster!

“Annoyed?”

Jacob felt pleased when he saw Nova’s pale face.

He touched her chin and said, “I will make you be willing to sleep with me.”

Nova really overwhelmed by his confidence.

She sneered, “Never!”

He was in a good mood and didn't care about what she had said. He reached for a cup of water on the table and handed it to her. Nova poured it on his face directly without thinking about it which made his eyes became gloomy. At the same time, the door was knocked by someone.

Before Nova could react, Jacob opened the door with a towel in his hand.

“Nova...”

Ewan stopped his word and his face became frozen when he saw clearly the man who opened the door. Jacob looked at him calmly, and turned around to Nova, “It for you.”

He took off his coat and went into the bathroom which looked like that he was preparing for the sex. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Nova lapped herself tight with the bathrobe and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Ewan looked at her red swollen lips and the messy sheets and showed some upset in his eyes. He kept his lips firmly together and his face turned grave.

"Ella is an outspoken girl and I don't know how she provoked you. Now she is pregnant. I hope you can stay away from her as far as possible."

Nova wanted to laugh, and actually, she did. She laughed frigidly, walked over, and slapped the door.

The water in the bathroom then began to rattle. Nova could think of Jacob standing at the door listening to their conversation, just like previously when he was waiting outside the bathroom.

Nova was so annoyed. She glanced at the clothes on the floor, called the waiter to take them away, and stared at the bathroom with a sneer. Jacob came out of the bathroom and saw her reading in bed leisurely. His heart began to melt since he liked to see her being gentle.

“He’s gone?”

Nova looked up at him, then looked down at the magazine in her hand.

After a while, she said, “I’m hungry.”

The man was a little surprised at her response.

“I haven’t had anything to eat.”

Her voice sounded a bit awkward, but Jacob smiled. He didn't know why she started to be friendly, but what she did obviously pleased him.

"I will call for dinner delivery."

"How do you think I fell into the water? There was someone wanted me dead."

Nova said in a calm voice. Jacob stopped his movement and looked at her. Nova was afraid that her trick might be exposed.

And then he said, “Wait for a moment.”

Nova didn't stand up until she heard the door open and he left. She locked the door and put a chair to block it. After all this done, she couldn't help smiling when she imagined the scene that Jacob couldn't get in.

Later, Jacob stood at the door with a plate of food in her hand. He sneezed gently while the cold breeze blew. He stared at the locked door with anger.

Wait and see, Nova!

“Miss Graham, the bouquet of flower is for you.”

“Throw it away.” Nova said without hesitation.

Secretary Lee didn’t feel surprised because this had been happened for half a month.

The words of Jacob on the cruise ship had spread all over the Y City. All the people believed that they were a couple, but the real situation they didn't know was that Nova didn’t want to see Jacob at all.

Secretary Lee had a pity look at the blue roses which had just arrived by air freight this morning, and carried it out.

As soon as she left, Nova's mobile phone rang. She looked up at the number and hung up without hesitation. After a while, the landline on the desk rang. She answered the phone while reading the report.

“Hello?”

Jacob was silent for a few seconds and asked in a lazy tone, “Tossed it out again?”

Nova was surprised and asked with anger, “Are you enough?”

Jacob laughed and said, “No, I haven’t slept with you.”

Nova hung up the phone. What a rascal! She finally believed that the Chapman family was either a lover or a military ruffian.

Then here came a massage. Nova opened it and it was from Jacob.

"There is Daniel's concert today. I've ordered two tickets. I will come to pick you up after your work."

No way! When Nova was about to delete the massage, here came another one, “Is Tian Haiwan project to be completed next week? Mayor Anderson and I are friends. I’m thinking... You may need me to be your helper?”

Nova could do anything beneficial to the Group Graham. He always knew what she cared the most. All the time, she was always even-tempered no matter what. However, this time she would like to hit the mobile phone on Jacob's face. What a tricky asshole!

"You really have used all the loathsome methods you have in your life on this."

Louis looked at what Jacob had sent and jeered at him.

Jacob didn't care what he said. He put down his mobile phone, picked out a pair of cuffs from the drawer and put them on.

"Contact your brother-in-law, let him show up next week. And help me get the base number of the tender tonight."

Daniel was a world-famous violinist, a very romantic Italian man. He was also very popular with many young people because of his good looking. However, Jacob was not one of them. He didn't appreciate men who only played with such little delicate things. He just remembered when he first met Nova eight years ago, she sat in the park playing the violin very elegantly. As long as he thought of her, his heart will become peaceful.

Nova really liked violin. Although she was angry about Jacob's threats, she enjoyed the whole concert very attentively. Later, when she finally could not bear Jacob's continuous stare, she frowned.

“Are you enough?”

Jacob laughed in a low voice, and touched her brooch.

He said, “I’ve tried very hard to move my eyes elsewhere from here.”

Before Nova got angry, there was someone asking from behind, “Jacob?”

Melodious music was gently played. There was memory in the bottom of Nova's heart suddenly burst out to her mind. The light-yellow light shined out the perfect outline on his face. At the moment of Nova's looking back to the comer, her mind exploded.

Maybe because her expression was too strong, he noticed her. He was a little bit shocked but calmed down immediately.

He asked gracefully, “Jacob, this is...?”
