A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Since Emily couldn't see anything, she was cautious and reluctant to follow his words. "What do you want to do..."

Before she was done talking, she felt her head being pushed down by a big hand. When she tried to struggle, her eyes suddenly felt a sense of coolness.

The man was pouring water on her face to get rid of the chemicals from her eyes.

"Try to open your eyes a little bit, " He suggested.

Emily didn't sense anything alarming about him, so she obediently followed his suggestion. He then poured a small amount of water in the palm of his hands and carefully cleaned her eyes. He was very gentle and caring with his movements.

All of a sudden, a strange realization dawned upon her. Emily asked tentatively, "Jacob, is that you?"

Although he had kept his voice down on purpose, Emily's instincts were telling her that she was right.

The man didn't seem to pay heed to what she said, instead he looked at the red circles around her eyes carefully. His fingertips touched her wet eyelashes softly, causing a single drop of water to fall from her eyelashes.

"Such a silly woman."

'I can't believe she pepper sprayed herself. I have never seen such a clumsy woman before.'

The man placed a soft handkerchief in Emily's hand. She fumbled while using it to wipe her eyes. It took a while before she could completely open her eyes, but it still burned, slightly.

"Sir?" She looked around her, but the man who helped her just now had long gone.

Alas! Was she wrong about the guy?

Emily returned home, with thousands of questions on her mind.

The next morning, Emily met Jacob in the company.

Every time Jacob visited LA company, he always kept a low profile by using the VIP channel. Therefore, no employee in the whole company, apart from the senior executives, could ever meet him.

This time, however, Jacob came out of Victor's office. They two walked side by side in the corridor, with a deadpan expression on their pretty faces.
