Chapter 1132 Take Care Of Yourself (1/2)

When Jacob just stepped out of the hospital, he noticed Michelle standing right outside the building.

The gusting wind kept blowing her hair back from her forehead. There was no sign of love or possessiveness in her eyes. She looked calm and rather oddly cold.

The abrupt change in her attitude made Jacob very cautious. He had to be careful before making his next move.

”Miss Michelle, what are you doing here?”

Jacob gave her a cold glance. He walked towards her, but his pace receded when he reached about two feet away from her.

”Are you that reluctant to get close to me?”

Michelle looked down. Her voice was trembling.

It seemed as if they could only converse freely with each other on matters of the SL Jewelry's business.

Ever since she had left the hospital on that fateful day, he had hired additional guards to bolster the security. Michelle could barely make her way into the hospital. Whenever she managed to get close to the place, the guards would come over and chase her away. She could hardly manage anything in SL Jewelry. The company was facing an existential financial crisis.

Despite that, there wasn't much she could do to reverse it. She figured it was better for her to return the company back to him than watch it crumble while in her control. In that way, Jacob might end up appreciating her in the long run.

”If that is all you wanted to say, you should just go home. Don't waste my time here,”

Jacob replied aggressively.

He apparently had zero tolerance towards any other women besides Emily.

”I...”

Michelle suddenly didn't know how to respond. His cold ruthless eyes felt like a dagger stabbing directly through her heart.

The pain she experienced was so unbearable that she suddenly began panting.

She bit her lips perhaps to give herself some more pain to be felt.

Then, she made up her mind.

”I am here to return the control and ownership rights of SL Jewelry. I couldn't manage it well. It will be better for the fortune of the company if I give it back to you.”

As her words trailed, Michelle stared at his face in an attempt to catch every bit of change in his expressions.

She licked her lips and remained silent as she eagerly awaited his response.
