Things between Emily and Jacob were getting heated when suddenly, they were interrupted. Someone was knocking at the door!
"Oh, my! Someone is here!" Emily whispered. She tried to hide in Jacob's arms and conceal her red face.
Jacob pulled up his pants and straightened himself. "Yes?"
"It's me, Jennifer." Jennifer's voice came behind the door, "I am new here. So I was wondering if we can have dinner together and maybe you can tell me something about this city. Well, may I come in?"
"No, you may not." Jacob shut her down immediately.
"I'll wait for you outside then," Jennifer replied. She decided not to give up this time so easily!
Jacob ignored what she said and helped Emily fix herself. "Is there anything you would like to eat?"
"For starters, I am hungry," Emily replied, her face still flushed on what happened earlier.
"Then let's go out to eat something," Jacob wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
"With Jennifer?" Emily asked with a hint of displeasure.
"Your call." Jacob smiled as he shrugged.
Emily thought for a while then spoke up, "Very well. We can take her with us."
She knew she couldn't avoid Jennifer forever. If Jennifer was into Jacob, she had no choice but to deal with her, and then Jennifer should know her place!
"You don't like her, do you?" Jacob gave an amused chuckle.
"Who said that that I didn't like her? I like her." Emily rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"It's obvious you don't." Jacob laughed and kissed her on the cheek. He tried to make out with her again but Emily covered his mouth. "Now, it's not the right time."
Jennifer just stood behind the door, waiting. What was taking him so long? Her high heels were starting to hurt again! Then she lifted her face when she heard the door open. She clicked her tongue when she saw Jacob and Emily being sweet towards each other. And she was green with envy when she realized what they had been doing inside from the smell in the office and Emily's flushing face.
She took a deep breath and flashed a fake smile in a fake enthusiastic voice. "Oh, I didn't expect that Ms. Emily would be here also!"
"Well, isn't it obvious?" Jacob replied sarcastic
engaged. His whole attention was on Emily, recommending the delicious dishes to her. "You should try this one. See? This one is too salty for my taste!"
Jennifer felt that she had lost her appetite as she looked at the happy couple in front of her.
She pretended not to care but it only caused pain to her. She cared about Jacob so much and started hating Emily.
She found herself wallowing in self-pity. She couldn't bear seeing Jacob being sweet towards Emily. She wanted to scold herself since it was her idea that the four of them should have dinner together.
"Why aren't you eating anything?" Magee asked, snapping her out of her thoughts. Then he pushed a dish towards her, "This is your favorite, as far as I could remember."
"Thanks," Jennifer turned to him and smiled.
Magee had feelings for her. She knew that but she couldn't return them.
He didn't mind waiting for her though.
Jacob and Emily were focused on each other. Jennifer was lost in her thoughts. No one noticed Magee taking out his phone and secretly took a photo of Emily. He sent the photo via text and typed, "Is this Emily?" He waited for a while to receive a reply.
"Yes! That's her!" The unknown number answered. Oh dear, Emily Bai.
Whoever was on the other side definitely wanted her dead.
Magee smiled quietly as he placed his phone back in his pocket.
His glanced at Emily with both of his hands under his chin, smiling with evil intentions.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
