Even when he was dressed in sporty outfits, he still looked like a playboy.
“Gabriella?” Jacob paused for a moment, then thought of something and suddenly laughed, “You’re the famous Gabriella lately making waves on Wall Street?”
“Thanks for the compliment.” Rosalynn smiled lightly.
Jacob never imagined he’d run into Rosalynn who had been “dead” for over five years, when he was being forced by his old man to exercise.
Moreover… Jacob looked at the little girl next to Rosalynn, who was just a bit shorter than her cute enough to make people’s hearts melt involuntarily.
“She…”
“Good morning, uncle” Ivy didn’t let her mom down. She politely greeted Jacob NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Jacob immediately smiled, crouched down, and patted hands with Ivy: “Come here, sweetie.”
Ivy glanced at her mommy Rosalynn gently nodded at her
Speaking of which, Jacob was the lifesaver of Ivy and Cory.
Ivy walked up to Jacob. He was quite handsome. Ivy stared at him with her big sparkling eyes, fascinated, but she remembered her brother’s advice, so she didn’t make it too obvious.
“Five years old, right?” Jacob looked at Rosalynn.
“Yes,” Rosalynn nodded her head.
“Great” Jacob got a bit teary, “Really wonderful!
“How have you been?” Rosalynn hesitated for a bit, and asked sincerely.
“Not bad, but I left Bane Corporation five years ago, and now… I don’t have much contact with the others.”
It wasn’t that there was a problem with their friendship. Jacob had been laying low with everyone in recent years as he just seemed to be obsessed with making money. Even during the holidays, he was busy working and not taking time off.
Rosalynn didn’t follow up on that topic.
“Are you back? Jacob asked tentatively.
“I have some work to do, and once it’s done, I’ll be leaving,” Rosalynn replied.
“I see…” Jacob reached out and touched Ivy’s chubby cheek. In the end, he didn’t ask to keep in touch.
Rosalynn didn’t bring it up either
After playing with Ivy for a while, Jacob stood up to say goodbye
Rosalynn hesitated for a moment: “Mr. Strand, thank you for helping me back then.
“I had my own reasons,” Jacob whispered.
Rosalynn didn’t hear him: “What?”
“I said, you’re welcome, Jacob smiled.
“I owe you a big favor, if you ever need help later on…”
“As for favors, Hilaria has been helping me and my family these years. She also secretly helped us through the financial crisis a few years ago. What favors haven’t been returned yet?”
Jacob didn’t know that the crisis his family encountered was actually helped by Rosalynn under Hilaria’s name.
Rosalynn didn’t plan to mention that either. After some small talk, Rosalynn left with Ivy.
Jacob stood there, watching the mother and daughter walking hand in hand, laughing and chatting. The burden that had been weighing on his heart for years finally found peace
“Jacob, time to move on- Jacob muttered to himself.
His grandfather mentioned a few days ago that there was a wealthy miner’s daughter he could meet. He heard she’s got a great personality and all. Maybe he should give it a shot? He would love to have a few adorable daughters like Ivy!
“Mommy, who’s that handsome uncle?” Ivy asked Rosalynn in a babyish tone
Rosalynn thought for a moment before giving a serious reply “That uncle is a very good person. When Ivy and your brother were still in mommy’s belly, a big demon wanted to steal you away. It was Uncle Jacob who saved you, mommy, and brother Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to meet
