"I know." Erica replied.
Jacob had been making excuses for Erica all along.
He thought Erica must not know about his car accident, which was why she didn't come to see him.
He also considered that Erica might be with another man. It wouldn't be the first time anyway...
But when he heard Erica say "I know", all the reasons Jacob had found instantly crumbled.
"I forgot to introduce." Erica smiled, then looked at Larkin, "Larkin, this is Jacob."
Her smile faded slightly, looking at Jacob: "Jacob, this is Larkin, my husband."
Jacob's face turned pale instantly, his breathing became heavy, clearly very angry.
"Erica, I'm giving you one chance, come here." Jacob said word by word, "We'll go back to our country and get married, I won't hold the past against you."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Strand." Larkin calmly said, "Erica and I have already completed our marriage registration, we are legally married, you've missed your chance to marry her, and there won't be another one."
Unable to hold back, Jacob cursed and marched towards Erica and Larkin.
"Jacob, what are you trying to do?" Erica immediately stepped in front of Larkin.
"You're protecting him?" Jacob pointed at Larkin, "Erica, do you even know what you're doing?"
"I know what I'm doing now more than ever!" Erica looked at Jacob, "When I left that day, I made it very clear to you, there's no turning back."
Jacob looked at Erica's determined expression.
He started to panic inside: "Erica, I know...I know my past behavior made you suffer a lot, I will change in the future, can you give me another chance?"
Larkin looked down at Erica.
He also wanted to know what Erica's attitude towards Jacob was now.
