Chapter 1638
Rosalynn’s words hit Jacob like a ton of bricks.
For the past sixteen years, he had countless opportunities to make Erica his wife.
But he always had a million reasons not to.
“You think I didn’t marry her because of her past?” Jacob snapped, looking up at Rosalynn. “If I cared about that,
would I have stuck around with her for sixteen years?!”
Rosalynn looked at Jacob in disappointment.
He was a loyal friend, sure.
But when it came to love, he was a hot mess.

“You didn’t care because you always had a string of women by your side,” Rosalynn told him bluntly. “But are you
sure Erica’s so-called ex-boyfriends even existed?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJacob frowned. “What do you mean?”
“Before I met Erica, I heard from your friends about what kind of person she was. But after I got to know her, I saw
the love in her eyes when she looked at you. It made me wonder, was she really as bad as your friends made her
out to be? Did she really have intimate relationships with all those men?”
“They have photos and videos as proof!”
Pictures of her kissing and holding hands with other men, even going to hotels with them…..
Jacob admitted, when he first saw those photos and videos, he hated her.
Rosalynn wasn’t sure if Erica had actually done those things.
She had a gut feeling that Erica wouldn’t.
So, she decided not to keep arguing with Jacob about it.
“Jacob, I’ll say it again, no one’s gonna wait around for you forever, and you can’t stop her from starting a new life
after you’ve hurt her for so many years,” Rosalynn paused. “Can’t you see how much she’s into Larkin?”
Again, Jacob felt like he’d been hit by a lightning bolt.
1 don’t get it, I never hurt her like Wayne hurt you, why could you forgive Wayne, but she won’t forgive me?” Jacob
asked, clutching his head in agony.
Wayne, sitting next to Rosalynn, didn’t know what to say.
“You didn’t love her with the same determination and unfaltering commitment as Wayne loved me
1 did, I love her, I really do Jacob quickly denied.
But Rosalynn just quietly looked at him.
Over the years, they, Wayne, Erica and Jacob have crossed paths in many ways.
Jacob just needed to think about it.
How he treated Erica under the same circumstances.
And how Wayne stood up for her.
The answer would reveal itself.
“You just said you didn’t care about Erica’s scandals, but did you really not care? Jacob, you’re such a gentleman,
but you let your friends insult Erica. Isn’t that a kind of revenge on Erica?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRosalynnis words were sharp.
Jacob was stunned.
Tve known Erica for many years, and I’ve never seen her as happy as she is now, Rosalynn continued. “Jacob, you
really need to think about this, even if you win her back, can you guarantee she won’t get hurt again? Your parents
and other family members must have a worse impression of her now. You value you family the most, so if Erica
marries you, she might have to endure more trouble. Have you thought about these things?”
1 can choose to cut ties with my family!” Jacob replied hastily
Rosalynn just looked at him, not responding to that
Everyone knew that for Jacob, this was nearly impossible
Tm just an observer, I’ve said what I needed to say from my point of view. It’s up to you to decide what to do next,”
Rosalynn paused slightly “T try to Talk to Erica and ask if she wants to see you one more time before the wedding
Jacob suddenly looked up. “Really?”
“All I can say is. I’ll try but I can’t promise anything Go home, sort out your emotions, and wait for my call
“Okay” Jacob’s eyes were red, as if he had just grasped a lifeline
