A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 60

It would torment Jack to hear it from Emily herself, and he was afraid that he would lose control of his anger and lash out at her

Emily slowly pursed her lips and gave Jack a gentle hug.

The next moment, his long and strong arms wrapped around her, and hugged her back so tightly that she felt like she was going to suffocate.

"Just let bygones be bygones. We won't talk about them anymore."

Resting her head on his firm chest, Emily replied firmly," Okay."

Jack kissed her forehead; moving downward, he kissed the place between her eyebrows, the tip of her nose, and her lips.

The moment their lips touched, Emily turned her head away unintentionally, and as a result, her soft lips just slightly brushed his face.

With a firm look in his eyes, Jack raised her chin and forced a kiss on her lips. He bit her lips and sucked the beads of blood that came out.

The desire in his eyes grew intense, as he kissed her neck gently and continually.

It wasn't until when she felt the coldness on her chest, that Emily came back to her senses. Almost out of instinct, she pushed the man in front of her away with great force and said," No... I don't want to do that..."

Immediately, Jack's face turned as sour as a jar of vinegar, as he asked her," You don't want me?"

'Then who does she want? Jacob?'

Emily immediately understood what he had meant. She explained to him," I'm sorry. It's just that I'm really tired today..."

Before she finished her words, Jack pushed her to the sofa and said," It's okay. You don't need to worry about that, because you don't need to move. I'll take care of everything."

Emily felt like her head was being torn apart. She didn't know why she didn't want to be intimate with him, so she simply said," I feel really uncomfortable."

"Don't worry. I'll make you feel very comfortable." Jack bit her collarbone softly.

"Ouch..." The pain from her collarbone exasperated Emily, as she pushed his head away with force and said," Jack, I don't want to do it now!"

Jack froze. Even though he wanted her strongly, his strong desire quickly disappeared after being sternly refused be her.

'She doesn't want to do it? Or she just doesn't want to do it with me?'

He tried hard to suppress his anger and his strong desire to ask her why she didn't want to sleep with him. Instead, he just spoke slowly, emphasizing one word at a time," I won't force you to do anything that you don't want to do."

'We have time and everything will come nature one day.'

Emily felt relaxed after hearing that. Since he looked like he wasn't too angry, Emily just pushed him away and said," You should go home."

"I can't stay here tonight?"

"There's not enough room for you here."

Jack stared at her for a while without blinking, until Emily felt a little bit scared. "Have a good rest," he said.

When he stood up to leave, Emily, hesitated a little at first, then she reached her arms around his neck, and gave him a quick kiss on his thin lips.

Jack froze, and then he heard the soft and gentle voice of the woman below him.

"I feel like you've got something on your mind. I know for a fact that you are not in a good mood. I can see it clearly in your eyes. Try to be happy." Emily had sensed a while back that something was wrong with Jack.

"Okay." Jack's attitude softened. He replied," I'll try to be happy."

Emily showed him to the door, but what she didn't know was that right after she closed the door, Jack, who was standing under a street lamp and looking down at his shadow, suddenly laughed out menacingly, as his face formed a sinister expression.

Time passed in peace. Emily went to work every day on time, and she also often met Jack.

One day, she came to the company early. When she pushed open the door to her office, she found a man sitting quietly on her office chair.

"Jacob... Wh...what are you doing here?"

Jacob looking up, showing no expression on his face and said," I'm your boss. Do I need a reason to be here?"

Emily thought that Jacob's excuse was reasonable, but she still found it a bit strange that he got inside her office without permission.

"Come here." Without any expression on his face, Jacob said like he was doing a routine check up," Tell me about the recent situation of the company."

"Okay." Emily didn't think twice about his words. She closed the door behind her, walked towards Jacob obediently and then began to give him an in-depth report about the company's current affairs.

Jacob's eyes locked with hers, as he tapped his index finger on the desk. No one could tell whether he was listening or not.

Emily felt thirsty after a while, so she grabbed her water bottle from the desk and took a sip from it, only to find that the water was warm.

'Did Jacob drink from my bottle?'

Coming to that conclusion, Emily's face was starting to burn up in mixed feelings.

'There are so many disposable cups in this office. Why on earth did he use my bottle to drink water?'

While she was lost in her thoughts, Jacob walked beside her and asked," Was it tasty? My saliva."

Emily's face blushed red like a tomato, at once. She remembered something, but the thought quickly escaped her.

"Hoodlum."

"This makes me a hoodlum? You're the one who wanted to drink from that bottle. I never forced you to do so." It seemed as if his bad mood from their previous encounter had alleviated a little.

'Well, isn't she the one who drank my saliva when that earthquake hit and we were trapped underneath the ruins?'

"Jacob, you know that I have a boyfriend. You shouldn't be making passes at me."

Jacob's face turned a little grim, as he replied simple," Be at ease. Your relationship won't last for long."

Emily felt offended by his words, as she said to him, with a straight-face," Only if you don't interfere, we will never break up."

"So is that how you think of me? A despicable man who wrecks other's relationship with dirty tricks?" Jacob was equally, if not more, offended by Emily's words, as he continued," At least, I don't resort to using shady and foul tricks to get my way!"

Emily's vigor weakened, as she said," ... well, that's good to know."

After she said that, she suddenly remembered something, as she took out a diamond cufflink wrapped in tissue paper out of her pocket, and handed it to the man standing in front of her.

"Your cufflink. You left it at my place."

"I didn't know that you were coming here today, so I didn't bring that ruby brooch with me. I can have it mail to you when I go back home."

Jacob glanced at that diamond cufflink and threw it away. His expression became extremely cold as he said," I never take back anything I give. If you don't want it, just throw it away."

Seeing him act like that made Emily frown, as she got down to pick up the diamond cufflink. She heard that deep, magnetic voice above her head," I just threw it away. Why did you pick it up again? If you want, I'll take down all the cufflink on my shirt and give them to you."

"I don't want it." Emily lowered her head and reluctantly replied," I just don't want it to stay here and cause an unnecessary misunderstanding."
