A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 157

Jacob nodded his head to express dissent, and said,"Jack doesn't like her. Do you still think that her life will be better off?"

Emily thought about it for a moment and then said,"Never mind. They can do as they please. Rose is pregnant with Jack's child, so he should be responsible for her!"

Emily was having the best time of her life. She didn't want to let those unimportant people affect her mood.

After confirming that Emily really didn't care, Jacob was relieved and a gentle smirk appeared on his handsome face.

"Well, there's something I want to tell you," she said. Emily remembered what she wanted to talk to Jacob about and she said,"I would like to return to the LA Company to focus on my own work. Are you okay with that?"

Her aspirations of getting her revenge on Jack had disappeared, so there was no need for her to continue working at the Gu Consortium any more.

When Jacob heard her words, he immediately furrowed his eyebrows. He didn't look too happy with Emily's announcement. "Don't you want to stay here?" he asked, eagerly.

"I feel like I am not qualified for the job, and there is too much pressure for me here. Designing jewelries is something I would like to do more than anything else..." she explained.

"If you want, you can just come to work every day and do nothing. Just sit in the office and accompany me. You will still receive your salary. What do you think?" Jacob offered some attractive conditions.

Emily shook her head and humbly refused,"No, that is not right. I really want to return to designing jewelries. Could you please let me go... Please, Jacob? Mr. Jacob..."

The sound of Emily pleading sounded very attractive to Jacob. He almost gave in, but unfortunately for Emily, he was still determined. "No," he refused.

Jacob was not comfortable with Emily going back to LA, because of Victor.

Emily knew what Jacob was worried about, so she winked at him and said,"Mr. Victor went abroad on work again. Don't worry. He won't be there, and even if he is, I will avoid him, okay?"

Jacob snorted coldly. "You seem to know his schedule very well," he said.

Emily pouted her small cherry like mouth and continued to insist with puppy dog eyes. "So, can I? Can I please..." she pleaded.

She even took the initiative to put her arms around his neck, and shake his body gently. She begged in a soft and adorable tone, as if she were a spoiled child begging for a candy.

Jacob was too caught up on her luscious, red lips as she spoke to him. The light in his eyes dimmed slightly, and his voice sounded gravelly and hoarse, as he said,"Not at all, but you must grant me a request."

"What kind of request?" Emily asked, looking straight at him with a pair of big, eager eyes. To Jacob, she was glowing like a star, and was as pure and innocent as a child.

Jacob lowered his head and whispered to her ear. In an instant, Emily's face blushed red, she could not believe what that man was saying.

"You... you're acting like a rascal in broad daylight!" Emily exclaimed.

Jacob grinned from ear to ear cheekily. He stretched out his long, loving arms and embraced her. "Tell me, when did I ever act like a hooligan? Hmm?" he asked.

Emily stared at him timidly. She could never bring herself to repeat what he had said. "Anyway, I'm sure you're just joking. How can you, as a CEO of such a big company, think about such things everyday?" asked Emily.

"Then what should I do?" Jacob replied with another question.

"Things like that are intimate matters between two people who are in love with each other. Not many people in your position spend their days thinking about such indescribable things..." explained Emily.

"Oh, I can describe them to you," said Jacob, as he put his hands around her waist and smiled gently. He continued,"Because I am so into you, I'm always thinking about you. I feel like I don't respect your body enough if I don't also think about sleeping with you every now and then. Don't you think so?"

Flushed, Emily was speechless by his words. She tried to argue,"But..."

"If you say yes, I will allow you return to LA," assured Jacob. With a cheeky smile on his handsome face, he made her an offer she couldn't refuse,"Okay?"

Embarrassed, Emily's ears gradually turned red. She bit her dry lips, seeming troubled, and she said,"Can we talk about it..."

"If you do not object, then I'll take it as a 'yes'," replied Jacob. It was quite obvious, that Jacob had already made that decision for her, and nobody knew her better than him. Just a few days ago, this woman had the guts to flirt with him, even though, she was not the type of person to take the lead. Every time something required her to take an action, she was not bold enough.

Every time she would beg, Jacob would cave in. However, this time, Jacob would not spare her so easily.

Jacob wanted to teach her a lesson that it was not right of her to leave him hanging after flirting with him.

"No!" she denied. Out of the blue, Emily shook her head like a wave drum, and prevaricated, but it took her almost half a day to reply, as she said,"Your request... Is just too difficult for me to fulfil..."

"How will you know if you don't give it a try," he said. Having made a strong argument, Jacob sat back with satisfaction and said,"Sit here."

Emily stood still, and by that she voiced her refusal, obviously. "I won't," she reiterated.

Without hesitation, Jacob pulled her over towards him. Emily wobbled and sat awkwardly on his lap. They found themselves in an intimate state.

"Now you can surely sit on me, can't you?" Jacob raised his eyebrows, and gave her a wicked laugh. He pulled her face close and kissed her. Softly nibbling at her delicate lips, he said,"So, tonight..."

"No... hmm..."

No matter how much Emily refused, all her rejections melted in her mouth, thanks to Jacob's tongue.

Eventually, after a steamy and indescribably complex process, Jacob agreed to let Emily go back to the LA Company. In the end, she had accomplished what she set out to do. However, when she went back to work at LA, she found out that Jacob relocated LA's office next door to the Gu Consortium.

There was an old saying - one generation plants trees, another enjoys the shade. With proper backing from the Gu Consortium, LA's status in the industry started to soar high again. As a result, the number of clients in LA also increased significantly, but that was a story for another time.

With each passing day, the date of Jack and Rose's wedding drew closer.

At the Wedding Center in Jingshi City.

For a woman who was six months pregnant, Rose's stomach was showing quite noticeably. When she was putting on her wedding dress with the help of her carers, she unknowingly expressed a hint of smugness.

Rose never imagined that she would get married to Jack, but the day of her dreams was finally here, all thanks to the child in her stomach. If not for the baby, Mr. Gu would not have allowed her to be a part of their family. Even now, Rose did not know that Jacob was the man behind all this.

"Ah!" Rose suddenly gave a little cry. While her brows furrowed with displeasure, she continued,"Why are you tying me up so tight? Don't you know that I am pregnant! If something happens to the child in my belly, will you take responsibility?"

The face of female shop assistant who was helping Rose put on her dress immediately turned pale, as she apologized repeatedly,"Sorry, Miss Rose. I'm all thumbs, I'll ask someone else to help you dress..."

"Pah!" A tight and loud slap landed on the face of the girl, and her cheek immediately turned red with pain.

Rose stared at her coldly and said,"Don't call me Miss Rose, call me Mrs. Gu!"

The girl looked at Rose with shock, fighting back the tears, and quickly responded,"Sorry, Mrs. Gu. I am truly sorry..."

Rose nodded haughtily and said,"Get out of here, and get a smarter one to come over."

She looked as if she were the young princess of a royal family, as she talked down to the people commandingly, seeming insufferably arrogant.
