A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 87

"The child's father and mother living together— are you saying that it is not appropriate?"

Jacob was very meticulous and persistent in brainwashing the little rabbit before him. "Besides, if Jack finds out that you are with me, it's going to drive him off the walls. Wouldn't you want to see that?"

Emily looked at him for a few seconds and slowly nodded,"Yes, but I want to make him more than just mad."

Jacob looked at her serious appearance, smiled deeply and praised,"Well, yes. That's my girl."

Initially, Jacob thought that Emily would just let it go without making Jack pay the price. It seemed that he was wrong.

When they entered the house, all housekeepers and servants were already there waiting for them. They stood up in two rows and greeted them respectfully.

"Good evening. Sir, young lady."

Jacob's brows furrowed and his smile turned upside down. He seemed to be a little dissatisfied with their greeting. Everyone suddenly thought that they must have made some mistakes. They held their breath and waited anxiously.

"In the future, just call her Miss Emily."

Everyone bowed their heads in agreement. Later on, they looked at Emily with more respect.

Although the title did not make a big difference, but "Miss Emily" was obviously much more formal than "young lady", which showed that Emily wasn't just one of his dates who would stay here for a couple of nights, but she would somehow have a say in this house. That was Jacob's way of telling them that this lady was not an outsider.

They greeted her in unison, once again,"Good evening, Miss Emily!"

Emily didn't understand the complexity of these titles. Seeing everyone greeting her again, made her feel a bit strange, as she politely greeted them back again.

The couple walked in together. Zola, who was hiding in the crowd, looked at Emily with great envy, but no one noticed her.

When they got upstairs, Emily looked at the room with amazement, as it was exactly the same as her apartment room. Shocked and impressed, she said,"This... how did you do this?"

Although, the size of the area was several times bigger, the furniture and the things were all the same, and even some extra details that she wasn't aware of were also preserved.

"Where there's a will, there's a way."

"Yes, It took Mr. Jacob a lot of effort just to do it for you. Do you like it, Miss Emily?"

Zola had already been standing behind them secretly. She was smiling gently, and it looked very pleasing. The fury and jealousy she had when she was downstairs had already disappeared without a trace.

Jacob turned around and looked back at Zola. She was excited when Jacob did it. She tried to suppress the joy in her heart and covered her excitment with an even more splendid smile.

"Zola, don't come upstairs unless you are told to."

This sentence was like a cold water washing all the enthusiasm and expectations out of Zola. Embarrassed, she mumbled,"I, I am sorry sir. Please forgive me. I am just so glad to meet Miss Emily..."

Her voice, expressed the grievance of being misunderstood, but Jacob was apathetic as he turned around and casually said,"Well then, you can go downstairs now."

"... Yes."

Zola left reluctantly, but she did not dare to disobey a direct order from Jacob. She quickly turned around and headed down the stairs, while in her heart, secretly scheming devious plans.

Jacob had no intentions of telling Emily what he had done for her, as he had no expectations of getting something in return.

Everything he had done for her, was voluntary, because he loved her, nothing more.

However, there was a strange feeling lingering in Emily's heart. She noticed that the maid was always deliberately coming over to show her presence...

"Well, do you like it?"

Jacob's voice pulled Emily's thoughts back, and she nodded immediately. "I like it very much."

Jacob lifted her chin gently with one finger and stared at her little face for a few seconds and then asked,"Was that response perfunctory?"

"No..."
