A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 125 Shadows Of Darkness

After Emily woke up from the memory, she sat down and ate porridge slowly. "Thank you," she said.

Jacob, who was sitting opposite Emily, suddenly put his hand over her forehead. A few seconds later, he opened his mouth and said,"Your fever is coming down."

"Hmm…" Emily responded vaguely. There was an angry expression in Jacob's eyes, so she dared not look at his face. "Tomorrow I will go to the company," she said.

"There's no hurry. You can rest for another two days," said Jacob.

Emily shook her head and refused,"It's not a problem. I'm feeling much better now. I can go to work tomorrow."

"If you say so," agreed Jacob. Although Jacob agreed with her, his face turned sour.

Unfortunately, Emily, who was looking downwards to her plate, did not notice the dissatisfaction on Jacob's face. It was obvious that she was hiding something from him.

Emily's indifference and lack of concern for Jacob's mood made him unhappy. What could be so important? And why did she suddenly give him the cold shoulder?

"If there is nothing else to discuss, I will leave now," said Jacob, hoping that Emily would speak her mind.

Emily didn't raise her head, as she responded without thinking carefully what he was saying,"Oh, good."

Jacob's lips curled with disdain. He wasn't happy about the fact that Emily was giving him the cold shoulder even though he had taken such good care of her. Surely her illness was no excuse to be treating him like that.

"Okay, Emily. I suppose it is typical of you to do so!" Jacob mocked.

This wasn't the first time Emily, who was an ungrateful woman, took his good intentions for granted!

"Eh?" After finally realizing that Jacob was mad at her, Emily looked up at him and asked,"What's wrong..."

Annoyed by her ignorance, Jacob was so angry that he picked up his coat and turned away. He didn't stop or respond, even though Emily called out his name several times from behind.

Soon after Jacob paced towards the door, Emily got up to stop him, but he was too fast. She paused to think for a moment and decided not to go after him. Emily was confused by Jacob's behavior. 'It's so easy for him to get angry without any reason...
