A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 34 Are You Insane

"Don't be afraid. It's okay now."

Jack took her into his arms and held her tightly. The moment he held her, his cold heart seemed to be filled with a warm feeling of endearment.

Emily struggled to get away from him, but did not succeed. She gradually calmed down, "Jack? please, let me go first..."

Jack ignored Emily and lifted her up in his arms. With a very firm tone, Jack insisted, "I'll bring you to the hospital!"

Meanwhile, Rose, who was watching them from the dark, trembled in anger. She had exhausted all efforts just to bring Jack here so that he could watch Emily being humiliated, not to make him the hero of the day! In the end, she realized that she had underestimated Jack's feelings for Emily!

Not too far away from them, was a low-key black Maybach. It was Jacob's. He observed Jack and Emily with a gloomy face. Needless to say, he was not in a good mood.

Jacob arrived the moment Jack got out of the car. He did the best he could to restrain himself from getting out of his car. From a distance, he watched as Jack became the hero; he watched Emily in Jack's arms, as the two shared an intimate moment together.

"As long as Miss Emily is safe. It's such a relief."

Sitting in the driver's seat, Sam let out a long sigh of relief. He was ready to jump to Emily's rescue, but due to the lack of consent from his boss, he did not dare to act rashly.

Alas! His boss lost the opportunity to be Emily's hero.

Jacob did not speak, instead he lit up a cigarette. His narrow eyes squinted slightly as he commanded, "Find someone to keep a close eye on the woman responsible for this."

Sam responded instantly and remembered Rose who was hiding in the dark the entire time. "Yes, Mr. Jacob."

Emily was forced to do a full-body examination. Fortunately, there were no major injuries, except for the bruises, but the doctor asked her to stay in the hospital for one night just in case.

Jack sat beside her bed and looked at her with anticipation. After a while he decided to speak up, "Emily, don't you have something to say?"

"What do you want to hear?"

Emily glanced back at him. "You once said, 'flies are always buzzing about cracked eggs'. I must have done something wrong, or else, why would those people try to hurt me, right?

Are you satisfied with my words, Mr. Jack?"

Jack listened and endured the harsh ridicule Emily had subjected him to. He replied, "Emily, you know that is not what I want to hear!"

"Sorry, I cannot read your mind. How can I know what you're thinking?"

"I saved you, Emily. Don't I even deserve a simple 'thank you'?"

Not only did she not thank him, she made a mockery out of him by twisting his words and using them against him.

"Thank you."

Emily spit out two words very quickly and then turned her head away from Jack.

Jack face shrivelled with disappointment. "Is that how you wish to thank me?"

"How else do you want me to thank you?

You have done so much to hurt and insult me over the past few weeks, and now all of a sudden I'm supposed to forget everything because you saved me? So you think we're even? You are my savior? I need to smile back at you?"

"If I were as vengeful as you, I wouldn't have saved you just now!"

As soon as finishing these words, Jack was kind of regretted. Jack regretted saying that as soon as the words left his mouth.

If he hadn't saved her, she would have been abused by those thugs and he would have definitely gone crazy, without a doubt.

Emily was stunned by Jack's words. A long moment of silence filled the room. It was true that Jack had saved her, but it was also true that she would never forgive him.

"Emily, I..."

Jack had deeply contemplated his past actions for a long time. "I know I was wrong before, but If you come back to me now, I am willing to let go of all those unhappy things that have happened between us in the past few weeks..."

"What did you say?"

!" Emily turned her head around in utter shock, unable to believe what she was hearing.

"I said, come back to me."

Jack realized that he couldn't let go of Emily. He thought that humiliating her and exacting revenge on her would make him happy, but that was far from the truth.

Jack was thinking about her every day. When he was angry, he hated her, but he never really stopped thinking about her.

When Emily was surrounded by those men, he could hear his heart pounding like a drum. Jack did not want anyone else to hurt Emily!

He did not want anyone else to touch her!

Jack still wanted Emily to be his woman!

Jack felt that he had taken a lot of things into consideration for Emily. He was willing to give Emily and their relationship another chance. "As long as you are with me wholeheartedly and you promise to break ties with other men, I will be good to you, just the same as before..."

"Jack, are you insane?

!"

Emily interrupted Jack's words without hesitation. She glared at him with contempt and disgust. "Why do you think that after all the shameless things you've done, I will still be with you? You think I can forgive you?"

"Emily, don't be insatiable..."

Jack was also angry. In his heart, he had already made the biggest concession. After all, the rumours about Emily and other men...

Regardless of everything, he was still willing to accept her!

Emily, however, was so ungrateful!

"I think you are totally out of your mind. Go back to you? NEVER!"

Emily remembered what Jack had said to insult her. So she threw it back at him, "Do you think I will want to be with a man who has slept with other women?"

"Emily! You!"

Jack was so infuriated; he raised his hand impulsively.

Emily didn't cower, instead she looked him straight in the eye and said, "Are you angry?

Do you feel insulted?

I felt insulted by you in the same way at that time!"

Jack's hand stopped in mid-air. "Emily, can you talk nicely? You were not like this before."

"I am who I am today because of you."

"Emily..."

Jack gritted his teeth and reached over her shoulder. "I really want to reconcile with you. Can you..."

"I can't."

Jack's face darkened with anger. He really didn't want to hear the rejection from this woman's mouth!

Emily didn't react immediately. She was so shocked that she could only look at him leaning over. When the distance between their lips was only one centimeter, there was a knock on the door.

"Ding Dong..."

Jack stopped because of the knock on the door. Emily raised her leg and kicked Jack's chest, to push him further away from her.

"Jack, if you feel amorous, don't come to me!"

"You…"

Jack stepped back and looked at her angrily. Just as he was about to speak up, he was interrupted by a voice from outside the door.

"Mr. Jack, Mr. Jacob sent me to inform you that the boarding time is almost over. Please go to the airport immediately."

"Sam?"

Jack recognized the voice. He glanced at Emily, curiously, then stood up and opened the door. Much to his surprise, it was Sam standing in the doorway.

Jack took a short glance at his watch. He frowned, and then looked at Sam with a hint of impatience. "It's 2 am in the morning. You want me to go to the airport at this time? I remember booking the ticket for the day after tomorrow."

Sam replied calmly, "Mr. Jacob had arranged a new the ticket for you. He hopes that you can put more concentration in the family business."

Suddenly, Jack's face looked concerned. How did Jacob know where he was? And he want him to leave so soon...

Jack didn't want to go now. He knew that once he'd leave, Emily and her lover would be free to do whatever they wanted. How could he tolerate that! How could he allow such thing to happen?
