Jacob did not directly answer Jack, instead, he stared at Emily, with a pair of dark and ruthless eyes.
Emily shuddered anxiously because of his eyes, as she tried to avoid facing him.
Jack noticed the uneasiness in Emily, so he stepped towards her, blocking Jacob's view, and suddenly all the pressure had disappeared.
"Are you guys going to get dinner?"
Jacob said with a calm voice, as if it was just an ordinary question," Let's go together."
Emily was about to refuse, when Jack said," Okay."
Nonchalantly, he stretched out his long arm, wrapped it around her waist and said," Emily, let's eat together. It would have been a hassle having to find another place to eat. Moreover, we don't have to pay for our meal."
Emily could not find a valid reason to refuse.
She could't say that she wanted to change places to eat because she was feeling guilty.
However, the thought of eating at the same table with both Jack and Jacob made her feel terrible.
Would Jacob tell Jack what happened between them out of anger and jealousy?
In fact, Emily didn't want anyone to know what had happened between her and Jacob, including Jack...
Burdened with guilt, Emily lowered her head, to avoid facing Jacob's disdainful eyes and Jack's provocative expression.
The three of them entered the luxury box with different things on their minds.
Emily sat next to Jack, and to her opposite was Jacob. Jack, who soon realized this issue, changed his seat with her decisively.
In an instant, the two men's eyes collided like a thunderstorm. It was almost as if you could hear the sound of thunder cracking in the air. Underneath their calm and composed exterior was an undercurrent of anger and discontent.
Their eyes were equally cold and menacing, with insight into each other's true agenda.
Jacob instantly realized that Jack knew everything, but for some reason he was hiding it from Emily.
Either way, it didn't matter.
He, Jacob, had never took Jack seriously, because he could always beat him easily.
Oblivious to what was going on between Jack and Jacob, Emily handed the menu to Jacob politely and then turned to Jack," What would you like to eat?"
Jack smiled at her and gently said," Whatever you like."
"Then don't order seafood, because your injuries haven't healed yet. You can'
acob. Instead, he was being more active and intimate with Emily, which consequently was making her feel very embarrassed.
In the end, Jacob couldn't stand to be there a second longer. His patience had finally run thin, as he got up all of a sudden, tapped his fingers on the table a few times and then walked out of the box, without a word.
Jack understood why Jacob had left so abruptly, but Emily, as clueless as she was, didn't understand what had happened, and so she asked, out of curiosity," What happened to him?"
There was a faint smile on Jack's face. "Why do you care about my uncle?"
Emily's eyes widened and her throat tensed up, as she said," No, he is your uncle. I was just curious."
"He is not my biological uncle, so what's the big deal?" Jack's tone was disrespectful and distasteful. He whispered in Emily's ears," I think he's just a lonely man who is jealous of us. Or maybe, he is just jealous because I have such a good girlfriend?"
"Don't joke about such things."
Emily found it repulsive to make fun of people like that so she avoided the topic.
"Forget it, but I still need to go to see him. After all, he is my elder."
"Don't go," Emily blurted out, her nerves were all over the place.
She was still afraid that Jacob would reveal something about her to Jack. The chances of that happening would be greater if the two men were together alone.
"What? Can't bear me to leave you?" Jack did not take her words to heart. He gently moved closer to kiss her cheek and then said," I will be back soon."
