A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 122

This was a situation Jacob had foreseen. He quietly listened to the oppositions, with a blank expression on his face.

"I believe in her ability, and do you think that the elites in the other groups are dead? You think that with Emily in this group, everything will be messed up? Then you'd better pack up and leave together!" said Jacob.

Emily was only an assistant. Normally, she was not experienced enough to undertake such a project. The planning was done, but the team had not been assigned yet. As long as Jacob was in power, he could arrange a suitable position for Emily at will.

"When you talk, you should use your brains to avoid being misled by an ill-conceived person," continued Jacob.

These words somehow offended everyone. They wanted to explain, but they were intimidated by Jacob's cold, sharp eyes. They still remembered who Jacob was, as his reputation preceded him.

Jack pursed his lips and clenched his fists tightly in anger. He laid his eyes on Emily, with reluctance written all over his face.

Emily wasn't expecting Jacob to make such a big decision on her behalf. Within moments she was subjected to the contemptuous eyes of her peers in the room. However, Jacob revealed that he firmly believed in her...

For a fleeting moment, Jacob's words gave her skeptical heart some solace.

After the meeting was over, everyone, especially Jack, did not seem too happy with the outcome. The only exception was Jacob and Emily.

Jack did not open his mouth, neither did he do anything, instead he just got up and walked out of the room.

Jacob demonstrated the importance of power to Jack more deeply in today's meeting. One day he would trample Jacob under his feet, just to see who would protect Emily at that time.

......

"Miss Tina, do you know that Emily has been spreading rumours about you in the company? She claims that you are ill-tempered, and that if it weren't for the family you were born into, no one would have put up with your nasty attitude. Besides, if you had started with ordinary employees, you would have been brushed off from the very beginning. More importantly, if it weren't for your family's name, Mr. Jacob would never even stop to take a look at you..." said one of the employees.

Hearing what the female employee had just said, drove Tina off the walls. In a fit of rage, she banged her fist on the table, spilling coffee all over her documents.

The female employees who were gossiping were going to get fired, that much was inevitable. No one could speak like that and expect to get away without any repercussions. Naturally old Mr. Gu would not contest their dismissals, as they were only a few insignificant employees.

However, dealing with Emily was going to be a whole new ball game.

Tina wasn't completely wit-less. She wasn't exactly sure as to how much Jacob loved Emily, but she assumed that it must have been a lot since he protected Emily so desperately. This made Tina very jealous of Emily. However, she did not dare to press too hard, as it could end up blowing up on her face.

But how could Tina not do anything about Emily?

"What is it that making you so angry? Look, how red your hand is," said Mark.

Tina was too caught up in her thoughts to notice Mark, as he came into her room. He walked over and looked at her hand. The sight of which depressed him.

"It is that same Emily!" yelled Tina. Tina tried to bang her hand on the table again, but Mark caught her hand just in time.

"That low-life? She's not worth your anger," said Mark. Mark took her arm and patted her to comfort her. He cleared away the papers, wiped the coffee off the table and said,"Put some medicine on this, okay?"

Still mad with anger, Tina muttered, reluctantly,"Hmm."

Mark breathed out a sigh of resignation as he took out the ointment from inside the drawer, and said,"Really? You hate her that much?"

"Like you wouldn't believe!" said Tina, with disdain in her eyes. Tina's hatred for Emily was virtually unchangeable.

"Oh, I see," said Mark, as he applied the ointment on Tina's delicate hand. He continued,"What if I get rid of her?"

There was an uncanny calmness and unsettling feeling in the way Mark had said that. It was as if he was talking about something as trivial as the weather.

Baffled and slightly concerned for a short while, Tina soon realized what her brother was talking about. She smiled to appease him as she said,"Brother, you are so kind to me!"

Soon after, her eyes turned hateful again. "That would be too easy. It wouldn't be enough to satisfy to anger!" said Tina.

"Then what do you want?" asked Mark.

"I want her to know her place and crawl humbly at my feet..."

"Okay." Mark left a tender kiss on the back of her hand. He was as faithful as a knight, while Tina was the princess, a spoiled princess who he vowed to protect with his life.

Tina had been accustomed to the intimacy and generosity showed by Mark. Ever since she was just a child, Mark would always give her whatever she wanted. Even if she messed things up, Mark would always be there to clean up her mess.

At that time, Mark was known as the elder brother who loved and spoiled his little sister without reservation.

Up until Jacob, Tina enjoyed a smooth, trouble-free life. No one before had ever dared to break her pride without consideration.

Tina would claim this man, no matter what the cost.

The next day, Tina brought home-made food her cook at home had prepared, to Jacob's office.

For once, she behaved so nicely in front of Jacob, that he couldn't find the excuse to drive her away. Yet, at most, Jacob gave her an indifferent look.

As soon as Tina left, Jacob threw the lunch box into the garbage can.

Sam, who was standing next to Jacob, said,"Sir, do you think it was good to throw food away? After all, Miss Tina brought them for you herself."

Mr. Gu had warned him several times.

Jacob's black eyes narrowed slightly. After a few seconds, his thin lips uttered,"Pick it up."

Fortunately, the garbage can was clean. Sam picked up the lunch box, wondering what Jacob's intentions were.

"Eat it! Remember to eat everything," said Jacob.

Sam was at a loss for words,"? ? ?"

So why should he lift a stone just to drop it on his own foot? The lunch brought specially by Miss Tina for Mr. Jacob was not something he could afford to have...

On the other side, the first thing Tina did after dropping the food over at Jacob's office, was to find Emily. When she found out that Emily was in the 'Ladies Room', she followed her there.

Just as she was about to push the door in, she caught Emily on her way out. Tina stood in Emily's way and said,"Where are you going in such a hurry? I've been here for so many days, and still we haven't had a good chat yet."

Emily paused, and did not respond to Tina. After a moment, she asked,"Are you sure you want to chat in the bathroom?"

"Oh? You want to chat outside?" Tina laughed. Her laughter feigned innocence, but her heart was full of malice. She asked,"Are you sure you want to do this?

It isn't me who is going to be disgraced then," said Tina.

"What do you mean?" asked Emily. Having noticed the elated facial expression Tina was wearing, a shadow of doubt gradually surrounded Emily's heart.

Tina looked around the ladies' room to see if anyone else was there. She locked the door behind her and said,"What do you think? You don't know what you have done?"

Emily felt a little uneasy. She pressed her fingers together nervously and said,"What on earth do you want?"

"Emily, E..." Tina stuttered. There was an apparent disdain and disgust in her tone. "Do people like you deserve this name?"

Dumbfounded, Emily's face turned pale. She said,"What on earth are you talking..."

Tina slowly held her cellphone up high. In an instant, the words from Emily's mouth disappeared. She opened her eyes wide, as her pupils constricted and her face became paler than it was before.
