Surviving Heartbreak novel

---- out to Penelope in a quivering tone. "Penny, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have punished you so severely! Please come out, okay? "Stop playing hide and seek with me! I'm getting angry for real this time, you hear?" But no one responded to Jacob even after he shouted so much that his throat went hoarse. It was then that Jacob thought of another possibility. Could it be that Penelope got furious at him because she found out about him marrying Rebecca? His breath hitched in his throat immediately.

" Michael, I want you to investigate the identity of the culprit behind the leak of my marriage with Becky! Bring me the culprit!" As soon as he was done speaking , Rebecca's phone call came in. Jacob killed it instantly , only for her to call him again. It seemed that she'd continue spamming him with phone calls as long as he refused to pick any of them up. So, Jacob picked up the latest phone call and deliberately softened his tone. "What's wrong, Becky?

"Jacob, I think I'm burning up with a fever. I feel so ill right now. Can you come to the hospital and keep me company?" "I'm busy with something." Jacob ended the call after ---- that. His expression was dark. "Michael, have you uncovered anything?" "Mr. Thornton, an employee at the clubhouse recalled seeing Mrs. Thornton delivering supper to your room on the first floor on the night of her birthday." That was when Jacob's mind buzzed.

"Why didn't you report such an important thing to me earlier? Didn't you know that Penny would be heartbroken if she found out about the marriage?" Jacob's wrath stunned Michael to the point that he staggered backward. "Mr. Thornton, tomorrow is the death anniversary of Mrs. Thornton's father. She'll definitely visit his grave in the cemetery." "Hurry up and fetch the gown that my wife has previously ordered! After that, buy her another set of emerald jewelry!" Jacob urged impatiently.

He needed to be on his A game when he saw Penelope tomorrow. As long as he could give it his all in comforting her, she'd definitely forgive him and go home with him.
