"Nothing."Instead of explaining in detail to Emily, Jack simply said,"I have to take this call."
Emily nodded and left him alone.
On the other end of the line, Rose heard Emily's voice. Her mood darkened as she said, solemnly,"Jack, I have something important to tell you."
Jack was trying hard not to show his impatience, as he walked a few more steps away from Emily and then asked,"What's the matter?"
"I want to talk to you face to face."
"I'm not available right now. Just say it over the phone."
"No, it is very important. It concerns the both of us."Rose used to be obedient towards Jack, but this time she insisted,"Jack, I need to see you."
"Don't beat around the bush--- just tell me what you want, or I'll hang up."
Rose got anxious when she heard that, so she quickly added,"Jack, I just want to see you to make things clear between us. If you don't want to come to me, I'll come to you."
"Are you threatening me?"Jack's jaw suddenly dropped to the floor.
He didn't want Rose to appear before Emily yet.
"No, I really have something important to tell you."
Jack glanced over to look at Emily, who was eating not too far away. After much deliberation, he compromised reluctantly,"Okay, but if this is another one of your games, you will be sorry. Now tell me, where are you?"
With a big smile of accomplishment on her face, Rose nodded to Tina and Jasmyn and gave Jack her whereabouts.
"Emily, I have to talk to the members of Tao clan. Just wait for me here and don't walk around, okay?" Jack had already found an excuse for leaving and lying to Emily.
Emily had no reasons to doubt him. She replied,"Okay, go ahead. I'll wait for you."
Just a few minutes after Jack left, Tina and Jasmyn went downstairs and walked straight to Emily, which attracted some unwanted attention from the people around them.
"Emily?"Tina raised her chin and looked at Emily, who was still eating, and said haughtily,"Why are you hiding out here and stuffing your face with food? Haven't you ever eaten anything like this in your life? You're just a good for nothing bum..."
ir of skilful hands! What a sharp mind!
"Miss Tao, now I'm not wearing the same dress as you. Problem solved!"Emily said politely, in a tone that was neither too humble nor too pushy.
Surely Emily hit a nerve, because Tina's face suddenly twitched in anger as she said,"How opportunistic of you!"
Seeing as how Tina had nothing else to say, Jasmyn helplessly, grabbed Tina's hands and said,"Tina, we should leave."
'No!
Emily is in the limelight because she humiliated me!'
Tina, who was congenitally self-centered, didn't even think that she was the first one to make trouble to Emily. Instead, she blamed Emily from the heart for offending her!
'I am the star of this party. How can Emily even dream of taking my place? Who is she, compared to me?'
"Do not rejoice." Tina fixated on Emily's dress and sneered,"Not same style, but it is still same color."
Same color?
Some people were starting to get worried about themselves. Emily wasn't the only person wearing white there. Lady Tina was being too immature and fickle over a dress.
When they realized that Tina was only concerned with Emily, they put their worries to rest and watched the drama without getting involved.
Due to Emily's outstanding performance, they were looking forward to see what she would do next.
However, before Emily could speak, Tina quickly took up a glass of red wine and poured it on her.
