A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 57

Sam felt stressed, but he had to repeat it again. "Miss Emily returned to Jingshi City with Mr. Jack a few days ago."

The atmosphere in the ward was very quiet and depressing.

Fortunately for Sam, the storm he was expecting did not come. Instead, his boss laughed out loud, all of a sudden, even though there was no trace of happiness in his eyes. It was terrifying!

"Very good, Emily."

The first person he wanted to see after he woke up was her, but she was fooling around with her old lover. That was quite bold of her.

Although the temperature in the room was suitable, Jacob's facial expression sent chills down Sam's spine. He silently prayed for Emily.

……

Emily had been back in Jingshi City for a few days now. She was glad that she hadn't seen Jacob, but she also had a strange feeling at the back of her mind she couldn't shake off.

Old habits die hard.

Just as she was thinking of him, she received the first call of Jacob in days.

Emily didn't stop to think about it too much and answered her phone. Before the word "Hello" was even uttered, the person on the other side of the call dropped a bomb.

"Emily, did you think I was dead?"

What?

Why did him curse himself like that?

What happened to his tone?

It was like a husband catching his wife red-handed, cheating behind his back...

Emily was so confused that she didn't know how to respond. Jacob demanded," You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."

"…… What explanation?"

"Are you stupid?"

Suddenly, it occurred to Emily that may be he was talking about her reunion with Jack. Wasn't Jacob abroad at the time?

How could he know about that?

And...

"I am sorry, Mr. Jacob. If you are referring to my personal life, then I can't tell you anything. But if it is about work..."

"You can't tell me anything?" Jacob smiled with a look of disgust. "Your ability to burn the bridge after crossing it is quite remarkable. Have you forgotten about the promise you've made to me?"

Nonplussed, Emily asked," What did I promise you? Jacob, actually...

I got back with Jack.So in the future, I think it would be better if we maintained a strictly professional relationship, just to avoid problems. Thank you very much for taking care of me before..."

Emily felt like a great burden had been lifted from her chest after she had said everything she wanted to say to him, and yet her heart felt otherwise.

Since Emily chose to get back with him and Jack had also sworn his loyalty to her, she decided to cut down unnecessary contacts with other men.

In a frenzy of rage, Jacob shouted," Emily, what do you think I am? A rag?

That you can just discard after using?"

"I didn't...You..."

Emily couldn't understand where his fury was coming from. What did he mean?

What did she do to him?

Why did it sound like she had cheated on him?

Wasn't it strange?

"What did Jack promise you...

to make you go back to him? Oh, Emily, you are so gullible. People like you who voluntarily keep on making the same mistakes are truly rare!"

"You……"

Jacob had crossed the line!

Emily was stunned by his words, then she retorted after a few seconds," What do you know? You know nothing!"

By then Jacob had already hung up the phone before she could finish talking, so he missed the last sentence.

Emily was furious. Jacob, what did he know?
