A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 65

It was too late for Emily to avoid the sudden attack, as Tina poured a glass of red wine all over her chest.

The red liquid quickly sprawled down her thin dress, contaminating it with a light, red tint. Emily felt uncomfortable as her chest was completely soaked in red wine.

"That's it. Now we're dressed in different colors." Tina was very pleased with herself. She smiled gleefully and did very little to disguise her complacency.

Furious, Emily clenched her hands and raised her head. With a deadpan expression on her face, she glared at the princess-like girl who stood condescendingly before her.

Tina, who didn't want to show weakness in the face of Emily, glared back at her and asked,"What do you want? Don't give me attitude. I don't like the look in your eyes..."

Tina jested as she picked up another glass of wine to pour it on Emily's head without hesitation!

Emily turned her face away, trying to avoid Tina the second time, when suddenly a tall figure appeared before Emily. With his back facing Emily like a mountain, he managed to protect her from being drenched in wine again.

"Who dares—" Tina cursed at the man, annoyed by his interference. Soon after she raised her head to see who it was, she whispered,"Gosh! Jac...Jacob?"

'Jacob? Is she talking about "Jacob Gu"?'

Emily's heart skipped a beat at the thought of Jacob. But before she could say anything, the man took off his dinner jacket and tossed it over to Emily without looking back at her.

However, his action did not attract Tina's attention because she was too surprised to see Jacob there,"Jacob, when did you get here? I didn't mean to pour the wine on you. Why did you suddenly burst in?"

Tina said, pretending to be guilty.

'Why did Jacob protect that girl when I tried to pour the wine on her? Was Jacob attracted to her?'

The thought made Tina glare at Emily with hatred again.

Emily, however, was unaware of Tina's glare. She simply put on Jacob's dinner jacket to cover the wet part on her chest.

'How dare she...

How dare she put on the jacket of the man I admire!

She didn't deserve it!'

"Jacob, why..." Tina was so angry that she almost rushed towards Emily to take away Jacob's jacket from her.

However, she couldn't do that, because of Jacob. Jacob stood firmly before Emily like a guardian.

"Tina, after all these years, you still have no class."

Jacob's words were harsh for a girl from a noble family. Tina had grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth and was the apple of her family members' eye. No one had ever before dared to say "no" to her, except Jacob.

Moreover, what Jacob had just said really hurt her self-esteem!

Tina stomped her foot on the ground, as the tears welled in her eyes. Driven mad with anger and sadness, she fell silent for a while before she finally said,"Jacob, I don't want to talk to you any more!"

"I'm glad to hear that," replied Jacob expressionlessly, like he couldn't be more relieved to hear her say that.

When Tina heard his words, her eyes were turning red with tears. However, just when she was going to say something, someone placed a big hand on her head and brushed her hair softly.

"Tina."

Tina turned around and saw her older brother Mark Tao. She threw herself into his arms at once, crying.

"Dear brother, they are ganging up against me..."

All the people around felt embarrassed by her lies,"Oh my lady, you were the one who was bullying that lady in the first place. And the lady didn't even shed a drop of tear!"

Mark, on the other hand, believed his sister unconditionally. With a gloomy look on his delicate face he asked, with a cold voice,"Mr. Jacob, a gentleman would never bully a girl."

Jacob was not intimidated by Mark at all. Actually Jacob didn't even look at Mark, instead, he just threw an one-liner at him,"You'd better teach your sister how to be a gentle lady first."

As he said it, he directly took Emily's hand and walked towards the exit, under the watchful eyes of the public.
