A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

"Look at me," Jacob turned Emily's face to look at him.

Emily thought for a few second and said, "Jacob... Let them go."

"What?" Jacob couldn't believe what he had just heard. "Victor wanted to cut your heart out. Do you understand that? Let them go? No way!" he said.

Jacob was determined to make Victor pay the price for what he had done.

"... Look, I am fine now," she said.

"Emily, are you a fool?" Jacob asked, as he looked at her with puzzlement.

Emily was at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, Victor remained silent. He sat there with a blank look on face as if he had completely shut out the world around him.

The atmosphere in the corridor became tense and toxic.

Finally, the door of the emergency room opened.

Victor stood up immediately, as if he had suddenly come back to life. He rushed to the doctor and asked, "How is she? "

"She is fine for the moment, but that was a close call, so please be cautious and don't let her be too emotionally strained..." said the doctor.

Before the doctor could finish his report, Victor walked past him and went into the emergency room. Then he pushed Anne's bed all the way to her room from there. "Ann..." Victor looked at her pale face, as his heart bled with sadness.

He had failed to protect her.

Emily was worried about Anne. She wanted to see her now, but then she realized that maybe Anne didn't want to be bothered.
