Chapter 26 After simply cleaning and organizing the rental apartment for more than an hour , it was finally barely livable . I curled up on the sofa with my exhausted body and opened my phone , only to find that the secretly taken news had been deleted . The reason given was violation of regulations . Such a swift and decisive move immediately brought to mind the image of an elegant middle aged woman . The Sterling familys matriarch , Sterling strong willed mother . In her eyes , seemingly no woman in the world was worthy of her son . Let alone worthy of stepping through the Sterling familys door . When Jacob and I first confirmed our relationship , he immediately excitedly took me to the Sterling old mansion . But we were harshly rejected by Mrs. Sterling . The two of us stood awkwardly in the rain at the gate . That day , her expression was cold , showing no trace of motherly love for her son .

Bella thought she was different from me , but now it seems shes just another stepping stone before the real Mrs. Sterling takes her place . I couldnt help but feel relieved .

In five years together , how did I not know you could cook ? I had no good expression for him now , saying mockingly : What I cook isnt the Western food you eat every day . To you , me cooking or not cooking makes no difference . Besides , you didnt want to eat my cooking anyway , did you ? After all , in his heart , I was no different from a rat in the gutter , just a tool to anger Mrs. Sterling , Hearing this , a flash of embarrassment crossed Jacobs face . This was an expression I had never seen before I thought he would always remain high and mighty . It seems he had learned the truth about my fathers death . After a moment of silence , I waited coldly for his next words . Can I come in ? I want to talk with you . Sorry , unless youre going to my fathers grave to apologize , I dont think we have anything to talk about . Everything was clear back at the house .
