Chapter 1352 Louis Being Discharged By Force (1/2)

Jacob simply remained silent. The air was filled with an awkward and embarrassing silence.

Tim looked at the expensive red wine, and the steak and spaghetti on his plate. It all looked delicious and mouthwatering, but he didn't dare to eat now.

The man sitting across from him had a stern look on his face, and Tim felt as if he was staring down a beast. He knew that Jacob must be furious now. He was trying to figure out a way to peacefully resolve the situation.

Finally, Tim mustered up his courage and said, ”How about this? I'm willing to cooperate with your wife's previous doctor. I'll carefully check all the medicines that she used. If you no longer trust me, I can invite some other psychotherapists who are at the top of the field to come and collaborate on this.”

While saying this, Tim didn't have much confidence that Jacob would accept his suggestion. But he had no choice except to pretend to be calm. Thoughtfully, he added, ”I'm even willing to let you decrease my salary.”

”I will consider it.” Without saying goodbye, Jacob stood up and left. He was anxious to get home and see his silly girl. 'Why did she pretend to be recovering in front of me? Why didn't she receive treatment according to her real status?' he thought.

When Jacob arrived back home, he found that Emily was busy mopping the floor in her bedroom. He grabbed the mop from Emily's small hands and said, ”Why don't you leave it to the servants?”

”It's so boring, staying at home,” Emily pretended to whine. She had gone out a few days ago, and she had recently been looking forward to her time spent in the outside natural world with mountains and rivers. But she knew that since Darren hadn't been arrested yet, it wasn't safe for her to go out. These worries and anxieties were aggravating her illness. So it was better for her to stay at home, mopping the floor and exercising.

”Shall I take you out for a walk?” After that suggestion, Jacob turned around and opened the closet. He prepared to take some clothes out for Emily.

Emily didn't stop him from rifling through her closet. But she looked at him hesitantly. All of a sudden, an idea flashed in her mind. She asked, ”Have you caught Darren yet?”

Jacob had already selected a white sweater for her. Its delicate weave was suitable for this season, being not too cold nor too warm.

He turned around and held the sweater up against Emily, fully ignoring her question. He then asked, ”What would you like to match it with?”
