The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1693

"I called them here." Jacob's voice was raspy and he didn't look at Lenora, "You should go out first."

"Jacob..."

Lenora didn't get to finish her sentence.

Seeing Jacob's cold demeanor, she sadly put down the soup in her hands and left the ward.

Things had been like this these past few days.

When Jacob woke up, he mostly ignored her.

If this had been before, Lenora would have definitely lost her cool.

But now... she was starting to feel guilty.

"Is Erica still being crucified by the public?" Jacob asked after finishing some work, head lowered.

His assistant had been working by his side for a long time now.

He was somewhat aware of the drama between Jacob and Erica Shields.

Despite Erica's not-so-great reputation in the public eye, the assistant had a pretty good impression of her.

Last year, Erica and his boss seemed to be on very good terms.

On trips with Jacob, the assistant had even seen him picking out diamonds, like he was selecting an engagement ring.

He had thought that the two might be getting married this year.

But to his surprise, Erica was indeed getting married, but to another man.

"It's better now, other trending topics have come up, she's not getting as much attention." The assistant replied.

Jacob stared at the small table in front of him, lost in thought for a moment, then said, "Do me a favor."

"Jacob, I think Ms. Lawrence still loves you, I support you in winning her back!!"

"Mr. Carter is too good, right? He even brought a medical team back to save his wife's ex-boyfriend??"

"Looking at the comments, some people's mindsets are really twisted, Mr. Carter is actually a good man, they were living a good life as a couple, why are there still people encouraging Jacob to steal Mr. Carter's wife? People on the internet are too much!"

At this moment, a comment that was almost overlooked caught the attention of some netizens.

"Could you stop being so fake? Where was your so-called deep affection when you allowed her friends and that woman to bully her, where was your deep affection when you allowed your harsh mother to bully her?"

Under this comment, a crowd of onlookers quickly gathered.

"Speak the truth if you have it!!"

"You must be someone who knows the inside story! Did that man's mother ever bully Ms. Lawrence?"

The account replied, "His mother hit her twice. Hasn't the recent scandal about Ms. Lawrence been proven false? Mr. Strand was so devastated by the loss of Ms. Lawrence that he vomited blood and was admitted to the ICU, his shameless mother even asked Ms. Lawrence to divorce her current husband and reconcile with her son!"
