A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 97 Jacob Was Blind

Kate remembered Jacob's sullen indifference and moody temper, as her heart trembled with apprehension with just the thought of it. In the end, she was still a little scared, and her eyes were bloodshot. She hesitated for a little while and finally said," Okay, I shall leave now. Thank you, Zola."

"You're welcome. Just go," Zola insisted, as she watched her walk out of the Tyrone Mansion, sporting a satisfied smile. Unfortunately, the smile didn't stay on her face for too long.

Did she still need to inform Tina that Jacob wasn't going to the banquet? After all, she had already received her bribe...

'Forget it. I won't tell Tina. Otherwise I will get a scolded. That lady is very stroppy!'

In the room, there were only two people, Jacob and Emily. Sitting with their eyes locked at each other, the atmosphere between them was somewhat gloomy.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Emily took the lead to apologize and she was very sincere.

Jacob stared at her little face, remembering the wound on her foot, and decided to forgive her with mercy. "Well."

For some reason Jacob found it hard to be angry with Emily for too long.

Emily peeked at his face and saw that there was no sign of anger so she felt relaxed. She thought for a moment and said to him," I heard that this banquet is very important. Are you sure that you don't want to go?"

"It is not more important than you,"

Jacob replied, almost without thinking, without any false elements.

Moved by his words, Emily's heart started beating faster. As she forced herself to calm down, she insisted," Actually, I will be fine. Don't worry about me. Just go..."

"Are you trying to drive me away?"

"No, don't get me wrong..."

Emily quickly explained, fearing that Jacob would misunderstand her sentiments. She noticed that he had a partially satisfied smile on his face.

"Oh, if you don't want to drive me away, then you hope that you'll let me keep you company," Jacob insisted, raising his eyebrows slightly. With a pair of dark eyes filled with mischief, he continued," You always say no and mean yes."
