Jacob did not tell Emily about what he did to Cherry because he didn't want to add to her worries.
However, Cherry showed up in front of Jacob the next day, safe and sound. With an odd mix of fear and resentment in her tone, she said, "Bear, I bet you weren't expecting to see me here, right? You must be surprised."
Jacob stared at her with a straight face and said, in a cold voice, "How lucky you are to survive such a predicament, you coward! How dare you show up here!"
Intimidated, Cherry took a few steps back, shivering at the thought of what Jacob did to her. Finding it hard to keep her anger in, she said contemptuously, "I hope you know that I am not so fond of you anymore. But I promise to get my revenge on you and your bitch, Amy or Ely, whatever!"
Jacob's face darkened and he spat out in fury, "Oh, I urge you to try. Just see what I'll do to you then!"
"I'm not afraid of you anymore! I've got a man who is much better than you! I swear you'll regret hurting me!"
As soon as she finished making threats, she retreated as fast as she could, with her tails tucked firmly between her legs. Ten minutes later, Cherry came back again, with the man she had told Jacob about.
"So this is where she lives now, right?" Magee eyed the shabby house warily and frowned with disappointment. "Do you have any doctors in this village?"
By "she", Magee was referring to Emily.
"Yes, we do," Cherry answered honestly. 'Why do all handsome men come here to fawn over that bitch, Amy or Ely?' Cherry's face contorted with venomous outburst.
She stole a glance at Magee's handsome face and could not help feeling shy. Imitating the way Emily talked, Cherry said gently, "There is an old man who lives here. He is the best doctor in our village. He is the one who saved Bear from imminent death..."
"Bear?" Magee repeated the rustic name in a pensive mood while tapping his chin with his finger.
Cherry bit her lip while pointing at Jacob and said, "He...he is Bear. He once was madly in love with me but when I refused to marry him, he hung me from the edge of that cliff..."
Magee turned around and found Jacob chopping wood like a regular lumberjack in his natural habitat. His eyes squinted and smiled wryly as he shook his head in disbelief.
"He was madly in love with you? Are you sure? Do you kn
almost searched the entire mountain! Only God could tell that you were here!"
Emily shifted her eyes towards Jacob and said in a firm and gentle way, "But I do not regret anything that's happened to me. I even wanted to thank those human traffickers. If they hadn't sold me to this village, I would have never found my love again."
Jacob was stunned to hear Emily call him, "my love". He felt overwhelmed with happiness and he gazed into her eyes affectionately.
Magee's cheeky smile faded and he said, "Yes, yes. I couldn't agree more."
Although, he told himself not to harbour any feelings for Emily, there was still a part of him that felt differently.
'Jacob has lost all his memory! He is no different from a common countryman now! He is no match for someone like me now! But Emily, you still love him with all your heart...
What an enviable couple, ' Magee thought to himself.
"Now that you've found us, help us find out a way out of here as soon as possible." Emily finally told Magee about her idea. "I...cough-cough..." she wanted to continue but could not help coughing.
Jacob held her in his arms and patted her back gently. "I'll take you back to get some rest, okay?" His voice softened.
Magee's eyes dimmed and he spoke in a low voice. "Take good care of yourself. We will talk about it later when you get better."
'It seems that Emily is doing very well except for her health. What a waste to worry about her for such a long time! Emily, you never need me to worry about you, right?' Magee mocked himself in mind.
