A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 1487 How Could This Be !

"We've searched everywhere, Mr. Gu. We were watching Mrs. Gu like a hawk, but..."

The fact that this particular bodyguard had a hard time finding the right words to say infuriated Jacob. The last thing he wanted to happen was for Emily to be hurt once again, but his men's incompetence made it seem inevitable.

Jacob stood up and walked towards his office window. He stared blankly outside for a moment, and the whole room was starting to emanate a feeling of loneliness. A few seconds later, he said in a threatening tone, "But what?" I'm warning you, if you can't find Emily, don't dare show your face to me ever again!"

Jacob's harsh words frightened the bodyguard so much that his body started to tremble in fear.

The bodyguard scrambled to think of something to say. Then, he remembered that Taylor had visited Emily earlier and told this to Jacob. When Jacob heard this, his eyes widened in shock. He had had a bad impression of Taylor since their first meeting, but he hadn't expected her to go this far.

"I see!"

Jacob quickly hung up the phone.

It seemed like he had everything figured out. After thinking for a few moments, he pounded his fist with all his might on a nearby desk. Almost everything on that table fell to the ground and caused a sound similar to glass shattering.

Jacob called his assistant and told him, "I need you to find Emily and bring her back safely. Do whatever it takes!

His mind started to fill with thoughts of what Taylor could've possibly done to Emily. As a result, he became even more anxious than he already was.

After all, he had a reason to think that way since Taylor had already done something to hurt Emily before.

Jacob took out his phone once again and dialed a familiar number. "Hello?"

Louis was a little puzzled as to why Jacob would call him out of the blue.

"Louis, let me just tell you one thing. If anything bad happens to Emily, I'll make sure Taylor will suffer the consequences!"

Upon hearing Jacob's threat, Louis was left speechless. He had no clue what was going on, but, he wasn't simply going to let Jacob talk to him like that. He replied, "What happened? Did Taylor do something?"

Jacob's anger grew when he heard Louis's questions. He was Emily's brother, but he didn't even know a single thing about what had happened.

"Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You're her brother for crying out loud! Why don't you ask Taylor what she's up to?"

Louis could easily sense that Jacob was furious at that moment. However, the way he spoke about Taylor didn't seem appropriate to him.

Louis just wasn't going to let Jacob continue tarnishing Taylor's name like that. For that reason, he replied to Jacob in a serious manner, "I admit that I have no clue what happened, but you can't talk about Taylor like that. I won't allow it."

"Well then, let me inform you that your sister is missing. And the last person she was seen with was Taylor. If anything happens to Emily, I'm sure Taylor had something to do with it."

Only then did Louis realize what was going on. However, he knew in his heart that Taylor was innocent. Taylor wasn't the type of person to cause harm to anyone, especially to Emily.

"Stop talking nonsense! Taylor wouldn't do such a thing!" said Louis.

"Aren't you forgetting something? Didn't Taylor cause harm to Emily in the past? I've never trusted that woman from the beginning. I sure do hope you're right, or else, you're going to lose the woman you love."

Before Louis could say anything in response, Jacob had already hung up the phone.

The sound of the disconnected call peeved Louis. Unfortunately, there was nothing else he could do at that moment.

He tried calling Taylor, but there was no answer. The fact that he still didn't know what was truly going on made him even more anxious than before.

It was natural for Louis to think that Taylor had nothing to do with Emily's disappearance. After all, she was the woman he loved the most, and Emily was his sister. There wasn't a single reason in his mind as to why Taylor would cause harm to her.

"Mr. Ke..."

Louis's assistant uttered as soon as she entered the office. However, Louis just passed her while he ran outside.

"Let's talk about it when I come back."

Louis turned his head around to respond while running. The assistant was left confused and could only stare at his back while he was running. Feeling a bit disappointed, she looked at the documents in her hands and quietly left the office.

Along the way, Louis's concern for Taylor started to grow, fearing that something bad might've happened to her as well. Or maybe, she had made a mistake. Maybe she had hurt Emily without meaning to.

"I see. Thank you very much!"

Louis was talking to someone on the phone. His subordinate informed him that Taylor was at the park, so he ran there as quickly as he could.

Almost at the exact moment, Jacob and Louis arrived at the park.

"Emily!"

"Taylor!"

The two men shouted out loud at the same time. When Emily and Taylor heard their voices, they went over to them.

"Jacob, Louis, why are you both here?" Emily looked at the two men, worried that something bad might have happened.

However, Jacob didn't care about what anyone thought at that moment. He went straight to Emily to check on her. When he saw with his own eyes that she was fine, he was finally able to let out a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, the opposite happened when Taylor saw Louis's face. She clearly didn't want him to be there. The expression she had at that moment told it all.

Louis braced himself and walked up to Taylor. He looked at her and asked, "Are you okay?"

Taylor had no intention of responding to his question. She behaved in a frigid and unappreciative manner which made Louis feel a little sad. In spite of that, he was still relieved to find that his sister and Taylor were just fine.

"Why are the both of you here?" Taylor asked in confusion. She couldn't understand why the two men were acting in such a worried manner and why they had anxious looks on their faces.

At that moment, it was clear to Jacob that he had been wrong. Taylor truly had nothing to do with Emily's disappearance, but he still didn't want his wife to be near that woman.

"Emily, come here!" While exclaiming, Jacob pulled Emily to his side. Afterward, he looked at Taylor with hostile eyes.

Jacob's actions angered Louis. Meanwhile, Taylor and Emily were still left with no answers as to why Jacob was behaving this way.

"It's okay. Don't worry," Emily uttered while holding his hand gently. She noticed that Jacob's hand was shaking, most probably from nervousness.

On the other side, Taylor felt a little embarrassed. After all, a young couple was acting so sweet in front of them, but she couldn't do the same with Louis.

"Taylor, are you okay? You scared me to death,"

Louis asked with a concerned look on his face. However, Taylor didn't feel anything from his care. She simply looked at him in a standoffish way.

After a while, she finally replied, but in an unfriendly tone. "Do you really think I can't take care of myself?"

"Please don't say that. I just..."

"Well, I don't want to hear it!"

Taylor interrupted Louis before he could finish his words. Being treated this way in front of everyone made him feel a little embarrassed.

"Emily, can you please tell me what both of you are doing here? Shouldn't you be in the office right now?"

At that moment, Emily started to feel that something strange was going on. Louis's words and the two men's sudden arrival added to her suspicions.

Jacob kept on nodding while waiting for an answer. He looked at the two women, but the way he looked at Taylor was still full of hostility. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"I really don't know!" Emily answered while shaking her head. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember anything. Taylor, on the other hand, simply waved her hands to indicate that she didn't know what had happened either.

Everyone exchanged looks with each other, while their confusion kept on growing.

Taylor still had the same blank feeling in her head similar to Emily. "I actually feel like I've forgotten about the whole day. I have no memories of what happened up to this point. Logically speaking, that's impossible and there's no reason for me to end up in a park."

Her words didn't help to solve the mystery they were facing. However, the park was not far from Emily's office, so they thought it was a good idea to go there to find some clues.

When they arrived, Jacob tried to find a surveillance camera watching over Emily's office. What they saw in the video made their jaws drop.

"How could this be?" Taylor felt shocked and disturbed to her core by what she saw.

Louis was also shocked. None of them could believe their eyes. Emily and Taylor had been carried to the park by two men dressed in black!

Unfortunately, the two men had their whole face covered and it was impossible to identify them from the video.
