Chapter 378 I Just Feel Sorry For You
Hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Zheng were also stunned. They didn't expect that Lola would respond like this. They immediately panicked.
"Uh... Well..."
"What's wrong? Can't you come back? My mother's health shouldn't be so serious, right? I really have an important thing to do in front of you. I want you to witness my new beginning with your own eyes, so please come back! I know you have some misgivings. So you can give me the answer tomorrow."
Seeing Lola put down the phone, Jacob smiled, "What are you going to do?"
"It's not a good idea to delay it like this. When I get better, I'll go to find Murphy and play the last play with him. But you don't stop me from doing what I want to do. When Mr. and Mrs. Zheng arrive, the game will be over! I'd like to see how they can lie to me at that time!"
"When you go to see Murphy, you have to ask Barry to follow you." Jacob was worried that Lola would take the risk alone.
"No, I'll ask Paul to follow me."
"Paul?"
"We need to trust him. This is the first test for him. Trust me, I will be fine! What's more, Barry is a man of status. If anything happens to him, he will be in trouble! Besides, it's obvious that Barry works for you. Murphy will be on high alert! However, Paul is different. He has been in the underworld before, so there must be something that Barry can't do! It's also easy to get the trust of Murphy. It's better to let Paul follow me than Barry!"
Looking at Lola affectionately, Jacob had to admit that he was convinced by her.
Her reason was indeed sufficient, and he had no room to refuse.
"Okay."
Jacob nodded slightly, turned around and drank a glass of water to cool down.
"I really don't want to hear you call them dad and mom..."
Lola's face darkened and looked at him blankly, "Jacob, are you still blaming me..."
Jacob suddenly turned around and shook his head. "I just feel sorry for you."
He wouldn't be angry with her because he felt sorry for her.
Even if Jacob knew that Lola's parents were fake, he didn't blame her at all, because he knew how eager she was to find her parents.
Even if there was only one in ten million chance, she would still try to verify it.
"Lola, let me help you. Don't think you are alone. I'm your husband and I have the ability to share everything for you. You want to find your parents, and I want to fulfill your wish more. Your parents are not true this time, but I will find the true one for you next time!"
Hearing that, Lola was so moved and sad that she threw herself into his arms. The two fell onto the bed.
"Why are you so kind? Why don't you scold me? I made you suffer..."
"With you around, I'm not bitter at all... Silly girl, you suffered. You have been lonely for so many years, right?"
Lola blurred her sight and could only feel Jacob's powerful heartbeat, incomparably stable.
"Because I love you. I'm not alone."
"I love you too, so I know how lonely you are..."
The night was long and the moon was beautiful. Time passed little by little.
Jacob often accompanied Lola during her recovery, which made her have to hurry him to the company.
Granny was happy to see that. She wished they could be together forever and ask Lola about husband and wife life occasionally. Lola was shy, but to be honest, they hadn't had sex yet, mainly because they seemed to be a little awkward with each other...
She was worried about that unspeakable thing, and Jacob respected her and would not force her.
"Grandma, the couple will come back today. I will confront with them in public and then remove their masks. What do you think?"
"Lola, you're right. You don't need to ask me about this. Whatever you do, I will agree!"
Leaning on Mrs. Gu's shoulder, Lola said in a spoiled manner, "Grandma, I know you love me the most..."
Mrs. Gu held Lola's hand tightly and sobbed, "Lola, but I'm also sorry for you... I..."
Seeing that Mrs. Gu wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought, a strange feeling of uneasiness flashed through Lola's heart.
She frowned in confusion and did not interrupt, but seemed to be waiting for Mrs. Gu to continue.
But Mrs. Gu stopped in time. "Forget it. You are fine now, aren't you? You have cleared up the misunderstanding with Jacob and made up with him. I'm relieved! You can live a good life with Jacob from now on..."
Lola took a deep breath and gathered her courage. She looked at Mrs. Gu seriously and said, "Grandma, I really want to ask you something. Please tell me, okay?"
Mrs. Gu squinted her eyes and knew what Lola wanted to say without asking. But she couldn't say it. So she just shook her head and said, "My child, it's good that you don't know something."
"Why? Grandma? You know my background, so you brought me back to the Gu Family, right? You know my parents, don't you?" Lola asked cautiously, her voice trembling with sobs. And her palms were sweating and she was very nervous.
She didn't want to take a detour. Since grandma knew the truth and was in front of her, why did she look for from outside?!
"I don't..."
"Grandma, please don't lie to me no matter what." Tears welled up in Lola's eyes and she bit her lips stubbornly.
Mrs. Gu was heartbroken and shook her head repeatedly. "Okay, I won't lie to you... I know your parents... But it's hard to tell who you are..."
"Why can't you make it clear? Can't you just tell me my father's name and mother's name? What's the taboo of their names?" Lola was really confused why her origin was so mysterious. She wondered why grandma kept it a secret.
"Lola, if you know your identity, it will cause a family chaos, which will cause chaos in the city. Do you also want to know?"
Mrs. Gu said word by word. But it was like a bomb, Lola was about to be smashed into pieces before she could dodge.
She shook her head in surprise, like a deflated ball, lying on the sofa.
"How could this be? Grandma, are you kidding me? My background is so... so bad?"
Lola's trembling voice and pale face made Mrs. Gu feel remorseful. She hugged Lola and said, "My dear Lola, your family background is not bad? I didn't mean that... I mean your family background is too important to tell others easily... I'm afraid..."
Mrs. Gu didn't know how to explain it, so she hugged Lola with hesitation.
Lola sobbed, "What is it? Please tell me! I really want to know who my parents are. I want to have my own home! Grandma, can't you tell me anything? It's unfair to me!"
