Jacob's assistant tailed along with them. Once Esther dragged his brother to her office room, she roared at the assistant to get out. Only then the assistant understood that she was truly mad at her brother but flipped the table by acting cunningly.
Before closing the door, he heard a few words, "Jacob! what the hell you think you are doing?" He then thanked God for getting out instantly. He could not imagine what would happen to him if he stayed in.
Esther yelled at him letting out the angst she was holding back. "I am sick of you!!! Do you want to live in the shade of your sister forever? How many times have I covered up for you, is that not enough for you? If father happened to hear what happened today, how do you expect me to persuade with him this time?"
"Sis! Give me some time, the class is about to get over." Jacob showed up his index fingers signaling her to stop.
Esther glared at him with full of bitterness and incredulous, "How dare you?"
Jacob ignored his sister resentment and his eyes were still glued to the screen. Class ended and Kevin was making his way out.
Jacob yelled at Kevin in a low voice, "Hey, Kevin! Where are you going? She didn't introduce herself yet."
Next hour staff stood outside waiting for Kevin to move out. He held a smile while his ears were bleeding with the yells from Jacob. Without giving a damn to Jacob, he made his way out of the class.
Once he got out of the class, he plugged out the Bluetooth and cut the live casting and answered him in the phone, "You are hell so demanding?... Are you mad?!... The class is over. How do you expect me to continue further? Haven't I done enough already?"
When Jacob was busy arguing, Esther heard Kevin was on the other end, "You even used Kevin?!"
She ramped in front of him, but he still ignored her and continued to harass Kevin, "Go back to the class and ask for an extra hour. It is too short, go back!"
Esther could not stand the notorious behavior of her brother anymore. With a grim face, she plugged out the earphone and throw it on the side, she then stared at her brother in hatred. Only now, Jacob realized that he has been overboard.
"What are you doing, Jacob?"
He shrugged his shoulders and uttered the words nonsensically, "Looking for a fiance."
Esther lost her patience, "Jacob! you had a perfect image but you are ruining it all because of a girl."
Jacob always held an impeccable image of insurmountable, he never gave anyone a chance to meet him in person. This part of Jacob was the one that Esther liked about him the most.
Now just because of a girl, he was breaking all the rules and entering into a world of idiocy named love. That perfect image he held for so long was crumbling. What if he loses himself at the end.
"I miss her, sister!" Jacob answered back miserably. The graceful image of the girl sitting in front of him while her eyes wandered around for finding the one she accompanied flashed across his mind.
When Anna slept in the car while accompanying him, she sucked her thumb endlessly and that sound made him stare at her for an infinite time. Never once, Jacob saw a young lady suck a thumb while sleeping, that particular sight was.... so adorable.
Jacob even took a snap and saved it to adore her whenever he missed her. Though he embarrassed her in many ways, he kept this particular incident secret, he never mentioned it to her after dropping her at her doorsteps.
Hearing such a word from her brother shook Esther a bit, "You are losing yourself, Jacob!"
"I can't help it, Sis!... What can I do? She is too adorable, even when she swore at me... Please, Sis! Support me this one time. I'll pay back double." He promised.
"Boy! You even sacrificed your best friend to woo a girl. I feel pity for Kevin! Our company's best strategist is now a petty college professor."
"Don't you want your future sister-in-law to be well taught?" Jacob grinned back in a playful tone.
Esther was so annoyed, she started grumbling, "Oh my God! I should not have forced you to attend this meeting, it's all my fault. Look at the mess! Now I have to redo all, It's so tiring."
"I will help you settle this." Jacob stood up from the sofa, smoothing his suit, he muttered, "Thank you, Sis!"
"You better go, It's not a big deal." She still held her head low, she was unsure how she felt right now, 'Is he moving further away from us? It can't be... he is still my little brother.'
