The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 2578

Jacob smiled and said, "Why are you thanking me? That time, didn't you do the same for me?"

Matilda heard those words, and her face blushed even more.

She whispered helplessly, "It's all in the past... You shouldn't be constantly talking about it..."

"Impossible!"

Jacob said emotionally, "I will never forget what happened that day, even till the day I die. After so many years, I have been wanting to tell you. It’s just that I didn’t get the chance. Now, a good opportunity has arisen, and yet you still want to stop me from saying..."

Matilda said helplessly, "I didn't stop you from saying i t... I just... I just..."

Matilda didn't know how to continue the topic. So, she sighed and said, "Hey, I was just thinking... If you come here after such a late hour, wouldn't Elaine be very upset if she finds out? Why don’t you go home now? Let’s not make Elaine unhappy." 2

The moment Jacob heard her mentioning Elaine's name, he snorted coldly. "Matilda, don't mention that old hag in front of me. If it weren't for her, do you

think we would be like this? We would have gotten married and have had two to three kids by now!" 4

Matilda smiled helplessly and replied seriously," Certain things are fated, and Elaine is not to be blamed II

"Of course I blame her!" Jacob said in annoyance, " Over these years, whenever I think of you, my hatred for her would only grow!"

After he had finished his sentence, Jacob waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's not mention her name anymore. It’s too depressing to talk about her!" 5

Matilda hummed and said, "I guess I will slowly recover after taking a good rest in bed. You should head home too if you have issues you need to attend t o at home. Go back early to prevent unnecessary problems."

Jacob didn’t expect that Matilda couldn’t wait to send him home even after he had just arrived at her place.
