“But Jacob, I need more details before I can help,” Wilson said.
Jacob sighed, “I don’t understand what’s happening. She’s completely shut me out. She’s ignoring my texts and won’t see me when I visit. I’m lost.”
Wilson’s smile widened. There was a touch of mischief in his eyes as he spoke with a deliberate drawl, “Jacob, you need to play hard to get. Stop messaging her and don’t go after her. If you back off, she’ll start coming after you.”
“Really?” Jacob’s skepticism was clear, his tone doubtful.
Wilson’s gaze held a flicker of amusement, but his voice stayed calm and sincere. “Jacob, if you don’t trust me, there’s nothing more I can do.”
After a moment of silence, Jacob finally said, “Alright, I’ll give it a try.”
Samuel watched the entire exchange with a mix of curiosity and skepticism. Wilson’s advice seemed pretty dubious.
Ignoring her and staying away? Wasn’t that just going to make things worse? It’d probably just drive her further away.
It seemed like Wilson was seizing the chance to get back at Jacob.
Yvette turned to Wilson, her voice soft but inquisitive. “What did you tell Jacob?”
Wilson shrugged innocently. “Nothing.”
Yvette frowned.
“Why would Jacob be reaching out to Wilson now? Hadn’t he always had issues with him?” she
wondered.
Changing the subject, Wilson gently squeezed Yvette’s hand and looked at her with a tender, almost hypnotic gaze. “Have you finalized your plans for going to the base?”
Yvette nodded, her focus shifting. “Yes, everything’s set. Adam has to return to the base first, and then he’ll come to pick me up. I’ll be there for about a week.”
Wilson’s eyes softened as he held her hand a little tighter. “Can you bring a family member along? I’m going to miss you so much if I can’t see you for that long…”
Evening fell at Yara’s place.
She clung to Adam’s hand, her reluctance written all over her face. “Why do you have to go back to the base so soon? You’ve barely been home for a few days!”
Adam offered a gentle smile, trying to ease her concerns. “Mom, it’s a direct order from my superiors. I don’t have a choice. But I promise, I’ll be back soon, and I’ll bring Yvie with me when I return…”
“What? You’re taking Yvie with you?”
The moment Yara heard this, her expression hardened. “I can’t agree to that!”
She had just gotten her beloved daughter back and wanted to savor every moment with her, not send her off to endure the tough life at the base!
Plus, Yvette looked so delicate–she seemed ill–suited for the harsh realities of military life! Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“You’re already in the military, and now you want to take Yvie with you? Are you trying to drive me crazy? Just knowing you’re out there on dangerous missions is enough to keep me up at night. Now you want to take Yvie too–how can I possibly be okay with that?”
“Mom, you’ve got it all wrong,” Adam said quickly, his tone soothing. “I’m not taking Yvie into active duty. She’s just coming along to take care of a few things. As soon as that’s sorted, I’ll bring her back.”
Yara’s worry eased a little, but her curiosity remained. “What does Yvie need to do there?”
