A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 76

"Falling into the same pit twice. I've never seen anyone as stupid as me. I'm not kidding. I voluntarily allowed others to make a fool out of me. Hahaha..."

Having gone way above her drinking limit, Emily was just spewing nonsense now. The phone in her bag rang again and again.

Frustrated, Rita sighed. She picked up the phone and answered," Hello."

The man on the other end of the call immediately realized that the woman who answered was not Emily, he asked," Where is Emily?"

Since Rita did not want to leave Emily there, and pass through the noisy dance floor, she raised the volume on the phone and shouted," Sir, I am Emily's friend..."

Before she could finish, the man interrupted her," Where are you now?"

Rita hesitated, as she didn't know who she was talking to," We..."

The man sensed the doubtfulness and hesitation in Rita's voice, so he assured her," I'm her boyfriend."

Rita couldn't help but sneer. 'Well, am I just supposed to take your word for it?'

"I'll take care of her. Rest easy."

Rita hung up the phone, without waiting for his response.

When Rita glanced at Emily's phone screen, she got the shock of a lifetime, as her eyes widened with intrigue.

'What did I just see? Jacob's name?!

Since when did Emily have a relationship with such a man?'

As Emily was too drunk to talk sensibly, Rita did not want to wake her up and ask her about it. Instead, she put the phone back into Emily's bag and ordered a cocktail, as she listened to her endless ranting.

Jacob, on the other hand, was drunk with rage, as he sat there starting at his phone wondering who had answered Emily's phone.

"Sam, go and find out where Emily is right now."

"Yes, sir."

...

Twenty minutes later, a luxurious Maybach discreetly pulled over in front of the bar.

When Jacob set foot in the bar, his eyes had caught sight of a woman, who was lying prone on the bar counter. She was absolutely plastered, but her red cheeks, looked lovely and attractive.

Jacob furrowed his brows and threw cold glances at the people who were looking at Emily from time to time. Eventually, they moved away or shifted their attention elsewhere.

Jacob gradually walked in her direction.

By then Rita had already seen Jacob. Flustered and nonplussed, she was fumbling to come up with an excuse as she saw him walking towards them. She tapped Emily on the shoulder to wake her up.

"What do you want to do?"

Rita immediately stood up and asked Jacob, like a hen protecting her baby from harm's way.

"I'm here to take her home."

"No, I can't let you do that."

Jacob's eyes became unbearably cold. They both stood in front of Emily, and even though she found Jacob's imposing manner a little intimidating, she did not surrender.

Jacob knew that this woman was Emily's friend, but she didn't seem to believe anything he was saying.

However, in the end, it didn't matter to Jacob whether she believed him or not.

A few seconds later, a frivolous noise broke the awkward silence between them.

"Hey Jacob! What brings you here? And you are also here..." David recognized Rita. His beautiful eyes squinted, as he asked," Rita?"

Rita sewed her lips tight as her facial expression changed at the sight of David.

Meanwhile, Emily suddenly raised her head, dizzy and confused, to look at the three people around her. Then she stood up and said," You..."

The three of them didn't know what to say, so they stared at Emily quietly.

Emily looked at Rita, and then Jacob. Then she turned to David, and said," Dear brother..."

Before she finished, she threw herself into David's arms and continued," I've missed you so much..."

David hugged her back without a second thought. But, before he could think about what was happening, he notice that Jacob was staring at him, with a murderous look...

'This...this woman... This is the woman Jacob is in love with?'

He quivered, upon remembering Jacob's warning. Then he quickly pushed away the woman to Jacob and said," Little sister, I don't have time to be playing with you right now. You can play with this brother."

Emily tried to walk towards David, but was held back by Jacob's arms. Nobody could tell whether she understood David's words or not.

David thought he was wronged. 'I...I don't know her at all!

Little sister, could you please not create trouble for me? Don't you see how angry the man behind you is? Don't you see how dangerously he is looking at me?

"Jacob, let Emily go!"

Rita became anxious. She didn't know what Emily and Jacob's relationship was, but she could not let him take her away without a proper reason.

Although the man was Jacob, it did not change or influence Rita's decisions.

Rita was walking towards Emily, to pull her away from Jacob's clutches, but instead, she was pulled back by David.

"Rita, how do you still have time to worry about other people's affairs? I think it's time you worry about your own affairs."

Rita did not cast a glance at him at all, instead she said," I've said all I wanted to say. Now I'm going to take my friend home!"

Rita believed that Jacob was a dangerous man!

"They are a couple. Their love affair does not concern you. Or, are you also in love with Jacob?" David dropped the last sentence frivolously, as his eyes sparkled with mischief.

Rita found David's behavior repulsive. She found his sanctimonious, holier-than-thou attitude unnecessary, so she answered," I don't believe you, not a single word."

The next second, Rita felt like she had been zapped by a lightning.

Emily got up and kissed Jacob! While she was kissing him, she paused to smile and said to him," Jacob, it's you. What are you doing here?"

Jacob's anger disappeared within a split second, and he said," I'm here for you. I've come to take you home."

Emily understood what he meant and replied," Okay, I want to go home."

"Great."

Rita noticed the deep love in his eyes for Emily, even though it quickly disappeared. She still could not believe it.

"You're thinking about how wrong you were, right?" David sneered and suggested," Do not interfere."

"But..."

"Do not worry." David pulled her away before she could utter another word.

Without further ado, Jacob took Emily back to his car.

On that fateful night, he met that drunk little kitty in his car, under very similar circumstances.

The car quickly drove back to Jacob's place, Tyrone Mansion. Once they reached the entrance, Emily, who had been behaving good the whole time, suddenly did not want to get off the car.

"I don't want to get off."

Jacob was very patient with Emily. He coaxed," Why don't you want to get off? You won't be able to get a comfortable sleep here. Come on Emily, let me take you to bed."

Emily resisted. She pouted her luscious lips and said," I don't want to get off and I don't want to sleep with you!"

Sam, who was in the driver's seat, tried very hard to hold back his laughter. 'She's acting like a lamb being taken to the slaughterhouse.'

Jacob was embarrassed. He forcefully carried her out of the car, as if she were a chicken, and kicked the car door close behind him, saying," Go away."

Sam wasted no time, as he scurried away in Jacob's car.

"Let me go!" Emily's struggle was in vain. She was carried into the house and thrown onto the sofa.

Jacob held her down and kissed her. Instead of biting with force, Jacob softly nibbled, licked, and kissed her lips, and then slipped his tongue inside her mouth.

'Well, she just kissed me. So now I'm kissing her back.'
