Chapter 1505 Cut Our Losses (1/2)
David looked at the sincerity in Rita's eyes and felt that he was full of motivation again.
After he sent Rita away, David then proceeded to go to Jacob's house. When he arrived, he saw Jacob sitting in the dining room drinking his afternoon tea. Jacob's relaxed manner almost pissed him off.
David casually threw his coat on the sofa and walked over to one of the empty seats in the dining room. He quickly sat down and looked up at the servant standing not far away. When the servant walked over, David said, ”Please make me a cup of tea and get me a fruit plate, thank you.”
Jacob looked over at him and gave a nonchalant look. ”You're too comfortable in my home,” he informed him.
David wanted to say something to defend himself but Jacob continued before he could say anything. ”Now, you come to my house without even greeting me just for some afternoon tea. What's next? You're going to become homeless and call me asking for a favor or something?”
Emily suddenly burst into laughter. She giggled as if all the problems in the last few days had just disappeared in a second.
David pounded the table in response to Jacob's words. He had a smile on his face but his tone sounded like he was scolding a child. ”We haven't seen each other in only a few days and suddenly you've become super sarcastic. Don't you know how much money I have? Do you really think I would end up on the streets? You have got to be joking.”
”You're right. You're more likely to get kicked out by Rita first,” Jacob replied smugly.
”You know she can't live without me. Do you really think that she will kick me out?” David looked proud as he said those words.
If he didn't know the truth, Jacob would have believed what David said without any doubts. Now, however…
”Just be careful. Don't be too proud or you might end up losing everything in the end,” Jacob said in a slightly ominous tone.
