A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 89

"Can't you at least show some sympathy?"

"I don't have time for such things."

Emily,"..."

She had failed to convince the man sitting next to her in the car.

When Emily was about to give up, Jacob said to her with a cheeky smile and a deep voice,"Well, it's not entirely impossible."

Emily's face suddenly lit up like the sun. She looked at him, eyes sparkling with joy and asked,"Really?"

Jacob smiled back. He just couldn't resist her puppy dog eyes. "If you kiss me, I will say yes."

Again!

"Can't you think of something else?"

"No," Jacob raised his eyebrows, and continued,"I pretty much have everything else."

'Well, that's true.' Emily thought for a while, then she said,"Fine. I will kiss you when we..."

It was just a kiss. They had already kissed a thousand times.

"I want it now."

"You what?" Emily shook her head and hinted Rita at the backseat. "Don't be ridiculous..."

Jacob just stared at her without saying a word. He obviously meant it.

Emily and Jacob were whispering at each other, and the music was loud that Rita had no idea what they were talking about.

Besides, she had her own problems to worry about.

"Well..." "All right then..."

Emily bit her lip. She slowly leaned forward, but quickly shied away. It was just so embarrassing, especially with her friend in the backseat.

Jacob gave her a gentle smile, looking genuinely amused. "Come on, mommy."

What did he just say? The man was just utterly troublesome!

'Whatever, ' Emily thought. She kissed Jacob on the cheek, and then quickly moved back to her seat.

"Are you satisfied now?"

"Yeah," Jacob was so fond of playing games with her. He gazed at Emily, who pretended to be cool while her ears were turning red.

So he has agreed then?

Emily was relieved. She turned back to check on Rita, not realizing that Jacob was looking at her intensely.

Jacob's phone rang when they arrived at Tyrone Mansion. He glanced at the screen and picked up,"Hello."

It was David. "Jacob, is Emily with you?"

"Sniffing around my girl...how dare you?" Jacob answered in a cold voice.

He suddenly thought of the night when Emily was drunk, collapsed on to David's chest and called him her brother dearly. Emily did explain to him later that she had a very close cousin who unfortunately died a couple of years ago, but that scene still irritated him.

David replied immediately. "No, you've misunderstood me. I would never do that. I just wanted to ask her something. It's important."

"What is important? You can tell me."

"Ask Emily if she knows where Rita is."

Jacob was just turning the speaker on when David mentioned Rita. Everyone in the car heard David's voice.

Rita's heart sank to her stomach. Emily was stunned at first, but then she turned to Jacob and shook her head.

Jacob grinned, and whispered,"Kiss me first."

Emily,"..."

Not again!

David didn't get any responses from the phone, so he asked again,"Jacob? Can you hear me? Please, just ask Emily and see if she knows where to find Rita..."

Emily was suddenly pushed from behind by Rita, and before she could make any reactions, she fell on Jacob.

Jacob turned around at the right moment, and his lips caught hers.

"Mmmmm..." Emily moaned.

David, on the other side, heard the sound. He froze for a few seconds and then said,"So sorry to interrupt...just ignore me and go back to whatever you are doing..."

He hung up the phone almost instantly.

The world went back to silence. "Rita, what was that?" Emily looked at Jacob, then turned to Rita, feeling a little bit awkward and ashamed.

"Well..." Rita giggled for a little while before she continued,"You needed a push, babe. I was doing it for you." Rita was feeling much better now.

Emily was glad to see Rita smiling as she replied,"Then, thank you... I guess?"

While they were laughing, David, on the other hand, was rather frustrated after hanging up the phone.

He stayed at Rita's house the entire day in case Rita was really going for an abortion after their fight this morning. He tried to talk to her but failed.

Rita had locked herself in the room, so David had asked someone bring food to her room, when they found out that she wasn't there anymore.

Where on earth would she go? It was already late and she was pregnant!

David forced himself not to think about the worst possible scenario. He sent all his guards out to look for her, and even called the police for help, but again, nothing.

It was difficult to track down Rita because she did not use her credit cards or her ID card. She even managed to avoid all the surveillance cameras.

David hadn't been so angry in a long time, but somehow Rita always found a way to infuriate him.

The phone suddenly vibrated.

David picked up the phone immediately without even looking at the screen. "Did you find her?"

"Find who?" It was a man's voice. He sounded pretty drunk,"David, are you coming tonight? We have new girls in the club..."

It was his drinking buddy. So still no news from her. "Go play with yourself," shouted David, and hung up the phone angrily.

A few seconds later, David made another phone call. "Keeping searching until you find her!"

Rita stayed in Tyrone Mansion for three days, while David suffered through the horror of losing her.

However, David wasn't the only one who was suffering. Jacob also felt that Emily's full attention was going to the guest in the house and not him. He felt ignored.

Regardless, he still asked the chef to take good care of the two pregnant ladies under his care. He even hired a nutritionist for them.
