A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 49 Natural Disaster

"How can you be so stubborn? Emily really cares about you. She's just too proud; or else she would not have asked me to call you inside. She's afraid that you'll get sick in the rain..."

Said Debby, when suddenly Jack sneezed loudly, "Ahchoo!"

Debby sympathized, as if she were speaking to her own son, "See? You've already caught a cold. Go and take a hot bath, and I'll boil some ginger soup for you to dispel the cold."

Jack nodded politely and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Bai. But I would like to see Emily first..."

"You kids! I can feel that you really love Emily..."

Emily happened to see this when she walked out of her room.

Jack stood inside her house, pale-faced. He was soaking wet; his wet hair stuck to his head in an unkept manner and the water dripped from his clothes to the floor. Jack looked like he had just been fished out of the water.

While Emily's father and mother stood side by side and welcomed him in warmly.

"Mom, why did you bring him in?"

Debby winked at her and said, "Emily, it was you who asked me to bring Jacky in, right?

Emily sneered, "Ha, you're already calling him 'Jacky' now?"

Emily never thought that her own mother could be so double-faced. Out of sympathy, she asked her mother to bring Jack an umbrella, but to her surprise, she went so far as to bring him in.

"Emily......" Jack looked at Emily with his deep, charcoal black eyes. His eyes were shining.

For some reason, he reminded Emily of the abandoned dogs she used to see near the dustbin when she was a child. Jack looked at her with the same puppy dog eyes, as if begging her to hold and caress him.
