A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 121 Is It So Difficult

"Don't you have any reaction at all?"

Tina looked at Emily with disbelief. Her eyes grew wide, trying to understand the emotions on Emily's face. But she failed and felt disappointed.

And that was because Emily was too calm.

"What reaction?" asked Emily. She paused for a short while and continued," Best wishes to your marriage and many years of happiness for the two of you?"

Emily suddenly realized and found that she was good at disguising herself in front of the others.

Emily didn't know why. She didn't want to show her vulnerable part in front of Tina. And Emily didn't want Tina to see her getting giddy with success of teasing her...

"You……"

Don't you like Jacob?"

Tina had some confusions on her mind and was surprised, but soon she understood," I know it! You are with Jacob just for money!"

"You think I am like that, then that's who I am."

The voice of Emily suddenly fell, and the door of the office was opened from the outside. Jacob stood at the door, with an expressionless face. Nobody knew if he had heard their whole conversation.

Tina reacted at once, and she said with a big smile. "Jacob, you are back?"

Jacob already knew what Mr. Gu was thinking. Since Tina liked to come close to him that much, he would let her be a shield. "Why are you here?" he asked.

"I am waiting for you. Let's go out for dinner together, okay?"

Tina was absolutely patient and tolerant towards Jacob. Even if Jacob treated her bad, she was still so attached to him and never gave up.

"Not available today."

Although Jacob was talking to Tina, his eyes fell straight on Emily.

Tina was obviously unhappy with Jacobs reply. But she had already learned how to be smart and to avoid any conflict with others as much as possible. "Well, I will wait until you have time to eat together with me."

Anyway, now that she already entered his world. They would meet often and frequently. There was a long time for them and for Tina to get Jacob's attention. At least that was what she thought.

Jacob did not considered her request but said," Now go out first."

Tina bit her lip and looked at Emily with disliked. In the end, she obeyed him and went out.

There were only two people left in the office, Jacob and Emily.

"Come here."

Jacob's eyes were dark.

Emily heard his tone and could not help but feel a little bit nervous. She walk slowly toward him. And just as soon as she reached him, Jacob pushed her against the door.

She looked up at Jacob in fright and met the man's deep, black eyes. She knew that he had heard their conversion and it made him so angry.

"Is it so difficult to admit that you like me?"

If she really liked money, she won't be like this now, and he didn't have to put too much effort on her.

Jacob slowly stressed each and every syllable. Those words were like arrows piercing the heart of Emily, and it was faintly hurt. She was stunned for a few seconds, and answered with a lowly voice," It is very difficult."

How could she let him know her feelings? If possible, Emily hoped that Jacob would not be so nice to her, so that she would not fall far into such situation.

She didn't dare to have feelings or like this man, because their status were far from each other. There would never be any good out of it.

Tina's words were like a cold water that woke her up. She discovered that the hidden inferiority that has been buried deep in her heart for so long had grew quietly since she met Jacob.

However, the strange thing was that when Emily and Jack were together, she never felt that way.

"Emily, look at me."

Jacob touched her chin. He raised her little face and forced her to face him. "I don't care what you are thinking right now, but remember, you can only be with me, your whole life!"

Are we clear? "

Emily didn't say anything and remained silent. After saying his words, the man's hot kiss fell on her lips.

She thought that if one day Jacob and Tina got married, it would be the time for her to leave. Even if she liked him, she never wanted to be a third person or a mistress that would destroy other people's marriage.

Seeing Emily's distracted face, Jacob took a bite of her lip and continued to kiss her more deeply. "You don't hate it when I'm kissing you, do you..."

He knew that Emily liked him, but this small affection of her love was far from his love for her. He seemed to be captivated by her, but she always tried to run away from him, which was totally unfair.

However, nothing was fair when it came to love and war.

Emily sighed softly, and suddenly took all her courage to put her arms around Jacob's neck. It was the very first time she responded to his kiss.

She decided to give herself a chance to indulge in his love, even for just this once.

Jacob's eyes were slightly narrowed. He was satisfied by her reaction. And he deepened his kiss again...

……

After Tina came to the company, she did not deliberately started an open fight with Emily again. However, she despised Emily from the bottom of her heart. From time to time, she sarcastically sneered at Emily like a proud and arrogant queen.

And as for the company's other employees, she didn't bother to mind them. At times, she would lose her temper. Everyone in the company was silently resentful and full of rage towards her attitude.

"Miss Tina's temper was too terrible. If she is not from Tao family, who would endure her attitude?"

"Looking at her! If she started as one of the lowest employee, she would be kicked out of our company from the beginning."

"Definitely. She's so horrible. If she was not born as a Tao, our Mr. Jacob would not even get to look at her."

Wherein, those words were from that woman who said that Jacob and Tina were a perfect match, and she did not feel anything wrong about it because she didn't know Tina's personality when they first met. When she got to know her better these days, she started to realize that Tina didn't deserve Jacob at all.

Emily happened to pass by, and pretended not to hear anything. Those several female employees who were talking looked at each other and exchanged a tacit smile before going back to their work.

There would be a meeting this morning. Emily had been working very hard recently. In addition, Jacob taught her one-on-one, and she was smart enough to learn the trick that she can now handle some work as a professional assistant on her own.

At the meeting, Jacob appointed one of the good team an important project, and added Emily as a part of the team, which could give her more chances to gain practical experiences.

They were certain that Jacob was backing Emily up by providing her extra help. They had thought that Jacob wanted to keep his lover in the office, but no one expected that Jacob wanted to give her actual power. They were dissatisfied with his decisions, but no one dared to say it aloud nor complain about it.

"That assistant, Miss Emily doesn't know anything, but still, you let her join the project team just like that. Is it because of your intimate relationship with her? How 'professional' the way you treat your work, Mr. Jacob! I am really impressed!"

The first person who took the initiative to raise his voice was Jack, and only he dared to say those words to Jacob face to face.

Watching these two people went in and out together every single day like a loving couple had made Jack feel jealous and angry for a long time. Like everyone else in this office, he thought Jacob made

Emily his assistant just because he wanted to keep her by his side; but he never thought that Jacob wanted to assign Emily with an important position in an important project. This situation was really different from what he thought it would be.

Moreover, to be honest, the project was so important because the state would also invest and collaborate with them. It was definitely a big project that everyone wanted to be included. It was profitable to just get involved in it. Who would be willing to give that chance to a little girl who was nobody and knew nothing?

When everyone heard Jack's words, they seemed to heave a sigh of relief. They all added," Yes, Mr. Jacob; the business is not a place for playful love."

"What does a little girl know? Don't screw up the project for your own personal reasons." Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"She is just suitable to be your assistant. I am afraid that she lacks ability to handle other things than being an assistant. You might need to reconsider it."

"……"

With their tones of words, it almost sounded like that Jacob was a foolish king who was seduced by a vicious woman and made a stupid decision.
