A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 66

'"I saved your life".

What did he mean by that?'

Emily was trying to straighten her thoughts before Jacob leaned over to her and gave her a full-on, open mouthed kiss, to the point of bleeding. It did not just end there. Instead, he sucked and licked the tiny drops of blood from her lips, as if he were punishing her.

"Oh..." Emily propped her hands on Jacob's chest, trying to push him away. But Jacob kissed her even harder, almost suffocating her.

Completely ignoring the beeping horns behind Jacob's car, the atmosphere inside the car was getting more and more passionate.

But the passionate mood was finally brought to an end after a traffic police knocked on the car window in a rude way.

Emily suddenly came to herself. Irritated, Jacob frowned with displeasure for being interrupted.

When the car window winded down slowly, the traffic police immediately recognized the man who was scowling at him with frustration. In an apologetic tone the policeman said,"Mr. Jac...Jacob!"

"What's wrong?"

With great fear and trepidation in his heart, the policeman answered,"You're disrupting traffic here, sir!"

However, before the policeman was done talking, the black Maybach in front of him suddenly caught fire and vanished from his sight like a bat out of hell.

The policeman was left speechless.

Emily sat in the front passenger seat, exhausted. The sudden increase in speed made her stomach churn, causing her to nearly throw up right there.

Luckily for Emily, Jacob slowed down the car once he noticed the pale complexion on her face.

Jacob nearly blew his top when Emily risked her life by jumping off the car. He was really scared out of his wits at that moment. The mere thought of the incident made him feel like he was being suffocated by a giant hand.

"Emily, do you think life is a game?"

Emily knew that Jacob was right, so she didn't say anything in response. She was like a child getting scolded by her parents.

It was dangerous of her to jump off the car like that. Fortunately, she only had a few bruises on her arm. Nothing serious.

"I'm going to kick your behind if you dare to pull something like that again!"

Frightened by Jacob's words, Emily mumbled a "yes" in a low voice.

Jacob was in good mood again because Emily was being obedient to him today. He drove the car for several minutes before they finally came to a stop.

Jacob got off the car. This time he didn't forget to lock the car doors. Then he stepped away and vanished from Emily's sight.

Emily, who was sitting inside the car by herself, felt depressed. She unknowingly touched her swollen lips dispiritedly.

'What a mess...'

After a while, when she felt stuffy inside the car, she took off the dinner jacket over her shoulders. Suddenly, she noticed that something had fallen out from the pocket.

Emily fumbled, and came across something hard. It looked like a white button from a shirt. 'Why did Jacob carry it with him?' Emily felt puzzled.

It was obviously not the button from Jacob's coat... 'Wait. Button?

"You took one of my cufflinks, and I took a button from your shirt. Fair enough."'

Emily suddenly recalled the words Jacob had said to her, and blushed at the thought of the memories from that day, because she also recalled what Jacob had done to her that day. It was the button from her shirt!

Suddenly there were loud footsteps outside the window. Emily quickly put away the button and pretended as if nothing was wrong.

With a crackling sound, the door was opened from outside by Jacob.

Seeing Emily sitting there quietly, Jacob's expression softened,"Stretch out your hand."

"Why?" Emily asked, as she stretched out her hand obediently.

"Other hand."

"Ok."

After Emily stretched out her other hand, Jacob immediately frowned as he noticed the bleeding bruises on her white and delicate skin.

He took the healing spray in his hand and sprayed it on the bruise a few times.

Emily could not help herself from drawing a deep breath in pain, as she did not expect the spray to hurt as much as it did.

"Now you know just how much it hurts," Jacob said in a cold voice; he wasn't enjoying the sight of her wound.

His words were harsh, but Emily understood that was because he cared about her. So she lowered her head and whispered,"Thank you."

"Do you know what you did was wrong?"

"Yes."

"Please explain."

"I should not have put my life in such a dangerous situation. I not only risked my life, but also got you into trouble."

"I saved your life. You have to cherish it by protecting yourself well, for my sake!" Jacob said to Emily, as he took out a band-aid and gently put it over her wound. His words felt more like a declaration of his sovereignty over her, rather than a warning.

Emily got more confused,"Jacob, I..."

She wanted to ask Jacob why he had said "I saved your life". Was he keeping something from her?

Jacob, however, didn't give her any chance to finish her question. "Here we are," he interrupted Emily directly.

"But..."

"No more nonsense."

Emily had no choice but to swallow her words back. She got off the car and followed Jacob into a high-end store.

"Do you have these in a size S for her?"

Emily was completely at a loss for words as she watched Jacob pick out women's dresses for her,"No, I..."

"Do you want to stay in that wet dress the whole time?"

Emily bit her lip; she was surprised that Jacob still remembered it. In truth, she was feeling uncomfortable in that dress, so instead of resisting Jacob's kindness, she took the clothes Jacob had picked out for her and walked into the fitting room.

Jacob finally planted himself on the sofa and stretched his long legs as he waited for Emily. His gentle and indifferent demeanor attracted the attention of several sales women.

After a short while, Emily walked out the door of the fitting room in a sleek, long dress.

Jacob's heart skipped a beat at the sight of Emily. He stood up and walked towards her, eyeing every part of her body, especially one particular part...

Emily got goosebumps all over her body because of Jacob's stare. She felt like there was something strange in Jacob's eyes.

"Emily, don't you wear bras?"

Jacob looked at her in a somewhat confused manner. Fortunately there weren't any other guests around them, or he would have had to put her in his pocket and not let anyone else see her!

Although he asked the question in a low voice, Emily heard him, loud and clear. Her face turned as red as an apple, as she quickly covered her chest with her hands and scolded,"You jackass!"

Normally a lady would wear pasties instead of a bra when she had to wear a formal dress. Besides, Emily did not expect Jacob to have such good vision.

Jacob, however, did not show any signs of embarrassment after he was scolded. Instead, he slightly raised the corners of his mouth, pointed to the area selling underwear and politely requested the saleswoman,"Pick up a pink bra for her in 36B."

With an understanding look, the saleswoman immediately followed his instructions without delay.

Emily, on the other hand, felt violated by Jacob's confidence. How did Jacob know her cup size so well?

Jacob leaned over to Emily as if he had seen right through her. He whispered,"Both in person and by my own eyes."

Emily was almost driven by compulsion to slap him across his smug face, but fortunately for Jacob, the saleswoman quickly came back and handed her a pink bra that he had chosen for her.

Emily felt her face burn with shame, as she refused awkwardly,"I don't like it, sorry."

"It doesn't matter whether you like it or not," chuckled Jacob as he continued,"I like it, and that's all that matters."

"You..." Emily cursed at Jacob in her mind, 'Why should I care what you like?!'
