Anna took a glimpse at Jacob who looked cold and felt even more depressed. "But, he may not like me either."

Susan could not understand her brother either.

She always thought that Jacob should like Anna too.

But if he liked her, how could he endure it for so many years without giving Anna any response?

Susan could only comfort her. "Your chance is always bigger than Blanchett's.

Plus, all of us are on your side."

"Okay," Anna responded reluctantly.

"Okay, don't think too much. I'll return to Canada in a few days, and when I return, I'll ask my brother about what he is thinking," Susan said.

Anna nodded, but still looked a little crestfallen.

On the plane, everyone thought that Blanchett would rush to sit next to Jacob. Unexpectedly, she pulled Anna with a smile and insisted on sitting with her. Anna wanted to refuse, but as George glanced over, she could only sit with Blanchett with a downcast look.

The plane took off.

A whisper suddenly sounded in Anna's ear.

"Hey, you like Jacob too right?" Blanchett asked suddenly.

Anna gave Blanchett a sidelong glare. "So what?" "I would suggest you give up earlier. You're not even worthy competition for me." Blanchett gave Anna a dazzling grin.

"Is this an open defiance?" Anna asked coldly.

"An open defiance? How come?" Blanchett gave off an extraordinarily confident look." An open defiance can only be established if the two sides are evenly matched, right? You're the type that never made it onto my list of decent opponents. Jacob will be mine, sooner or later."

Blanchett's arrogance completely annoyed Anna. She could not help but sneer, "The higher the expectation, the worse the fall. When you lose, please don't cry."

"Same goes for you too," Anna said bluntly.

Blanchett chuckled, and suddenly, she stomped heavily on Anna's feet.

"What do you think you're doing?" Anna was never a loser. She was furiously about to fight back.

"Ms. Wright, although we like the same man, we can just compete fairly. You don't have to be so infuriated, right?" Blanchett suddenly said loudly.

Everyone else on the plane looked over.

Anna's raised arms dangled in the air. Both advancement and retreat were already inappropriate at the moment.

She looked at Blanchett angrily, "Bullsh*t, you are the one who stepped on me first!"

"Okay okay okay, I was the one who stepped on you first." Blanchett looked helpless.

She confessed, but her expression clearly told everyone that Anna was lying.

Anna had always been a straightforward and simple person. She was extremely furious about being framed by Blanchett. "So now the offender is the one to launch the complaint, you..." "Anna!" George stopped Anna in the middle of her sentence. "Stop it."

"Dad, it was her..." Anna explained immediately.

"Blanchett is our guest, so stop messing around." A hint of warning could be seen in George's eyes.

Anna felt extremely wronged, but taking Blanchett's identity into consideration, she could only choke the raging wrath down.

Jacob witnessed the whole scene and a cold beam flashed across his eyes.

Seth was surprised by the girls. He then lowered his voice and said, "Jacob, Blanchett seems like the firebrand type. We all know Anna's character-she was obviously framed."

Jacob could not help but squint.

"However, although Blanchett is a little flawed, she's still Brad Dixon's daughter. You should really give it a good thought," Seth added with a smirk.

Jacob gave him a sideways glance and said unconcernedly, "Shut up!"

"Tsk. Okay, I'll stop." Seth rolled his eyes and started slurring, "But it's not reasonable. People are fighting just to get closer to that dullard Jacob. And while I'm such a marvelous man, why don't I get admirers who pursue me persistently for three to four years? I would've accepted anybody who's pursued me for a year, let alone three to four years."

Seth just would not stop murmuring.

Jacob plugged in his earphones and started listening to music.

As no one was listening, Seth stopped his gabble reluctantly.

Jacob closed his eyes to rest. The corners of his lips could not help but purse slightly.

Of course, he knew that Anna was framed by Blanchett.

Of course, he knew that Seth was actually speaking for Anna.

Anna Wright...

This persistent, flame-like woman had been chasing him from behind for four years.

These four years that had passed were the prime of Anna's youth, her golden age.

With her status and appearance, it should be a piece of cake for her to gain popularity among men.

But she wasted all her time on him.

Hadn't he been captivated?

Only Jacob himself knew that he had already been drawn and enthralled by her.

However, he tried really hard to suppress his feelings to stay away from Anna.

Anna should belong to a better man, not himself.

A self-deprecating smile appeared at the corners of Jacob's lips.

Others might have forgotten or subconsciously ignored it. But how could he forget it? How could he ignore it?

There was always going to be a gene in him that led to hereditary heart disease.

He might have survived this horrible disease, but could his future children do the same?

Thus, Jacob did not intend to have children from the very beginning.

As for Anna, Jacob knew that she liked children very much.

For example, when she was in Ningcheng City, she adored the child named Jacky very much. Not only did she pay the fee to help cure the child's disease later on, but she also kept in touch with him until now. Furthermore, she went to the orphanage once a week. Her smiles were always particularly bright when she was around the kids.

What's more, Anna had even obtained a qualification certificate in the past few years just to become a kindergarten teacher. According to her, she planned to apply to be a kindergarten teacher.

Was that the right thing to do? Making a person who loved children so much give up her right to become a mother just for his own sake.

It would be messy if this did not end fast.

If a relationship was destined to end in agony, then it would be better to not start it at all.

He would make Anna give up, the sooner the better.

After making this decision, Jacob found out that his heart, his almost normal heart hurt as if it was being slashed and stabbed by knives.

He gently covered the left side of his chest.

However, his eyes looked extremely staunch.

Anna was so attached to him now because she had not seized his feelings.

She would eventually regret it after she had gotten together with him.

Instead of continuing to walk down the lane, he should take the initiative to cut everything off now.
