"Jacob?" Emily tentatively called his name. She continued,"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gone to look for Tina without informing you, but I only reacted to the urgency of the moment... Jacob? Jacob, why aren't you answering me?"
Displeased, Jacob gave her a cold look and made her contemplate her mistakes.
"I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, okay? Jacob? Mr. Gu..." she pleaded.
"You're always ready to apologise, but you're not willing to change," he said. Jacob gritted his teeth with disappointment and said,"Do you always have to wait until it's too late for you to realize that you are wrong?"
His words disheartened Emily, but she knew he was right. Jacob's unwavering concern for her safety filled her heart with warmth and affection. She reached out to embrace him, but Jacob pushed her away. "I know I was wrong..." assured Emily.
"Don't hug me. Go hug your parents," replied Jacob.
However, Emily ignored him. She reached out again for his arm. This time Jacob did not push her way. "Don't be so mad at me. Why are you jealous of my parents? They gave birth to me and raised me. I should care about them," said Emily.
"Then, what about me?" asked Jacob.
"You are different from them," she replied.
Jacob raised his eye-brows and looked at the little one in his arms with scepticism. He asked,"How am I different from them?"
When Emily realized that Jacob's anger was dissipating, she pouted her lips and said,"You are my one and only."
"..." Jacob's heart started beating like a drum in his chest. "Dong, dong, dong..." The beating was so loud and vibrant. Jacob felt like his heart was going to pop out.
Damn, how could he be softened by this woman's sweet one-liners every time?
The next second, she slipped her arms around his neck, and pressed her pink lips against his. Her kiss was soft and comforting in ways words couldn't express.
Sam who was in the driver's seat, was surprised by their sudden show of intimacy. He silently raised the partition to give them privacy.
"Do you think this is enough?" he asked. Jacob was still stiff and expressionless, as Emily couldn't find a single change in his facial expression.
Emily bent her head and thought for a moment, then she said,"Well, would another kiss do?"
She was just... so...cute!
Jacob felt weakened by her charms. He felt like his masculinity would be ques
and Mrs. Bai. Although, he despised them and found it hard to even sit through one dinner with them, he promised Emily that he would be nice to them, even if it caused him displeasure.
In the end, Jacob still couldn't forgive them for putting Emily in danger!
In the middle of the dinner, Jacob went out to answer a phone call. Finally, The Bai couple breathed a sigh of relief. Emily's father took the chance and devoured his food, as if he had never eaten food before in his life.
"Dad, eat slowly. Nobody is going to take your food away from you," whispered Emily. She was afraid that her father would choke on his own food.
"Do you know what kind of life we are living..." said Mr. Bai. Emily's father was on the verge of losing his temper, but the thought of Jacob made him more conscious of his attitude. He restrained himself and said,"Let me be!"
"Well, let him be," said Mrs. Bai. Emily's mother had had enough. She took Emily's hands into hers, with tears in her eyes and said,"Emily, you don't know how Tina treated us..."
She told the story intermittently and deliberately concealed the truth behind Tina's real identity. Emily's father wanted to get a word in, but Emily's mother stepped on his foot secretly to shut him up.
Emily's father mulled it over, and then decided to listen to Emily's mother first.
Emily's eyes widened with shock when she heard how Tina had tortured her parents. "How dare she treat you like that! She's an animal! It's all my fault. If I had been more cautious, you would not have suffered like that..." said Emily angrily.
