A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 219 Do You Have Any Proof

Emily's identity as Mr. and Mrs. Tao's daughter had set the Internet on fire, gathering the attention of all netizens.

"Wow! How can that be? The news of Emily's dating Jacob alone was enough to make me envious, and now with her parentage she'll become a hot sensation on the Internet again!"

"She is so lucky! Now the ugly duckling has transformed into a lovely swan. Soon she will marry Jacob and unite two of the most powerful families in the city!"

"Oh! How I envy her!"

"..."

As a matter of fact, Abbott was deliberately spreading the news so as to put pressure on Jacob. 'Jacob will not be able to keep Emily at his home, ' Abbott thought wisely, 'when everyone else learns that Emily is my daughter.'

To some extent, Abbott had succeeded in getting what he wanted. Although, Jacob tried hard to keep the secret from Emily, the news still found its way to Emily's ears.

The moment Emily heard the news, her mind got muddled completely.

'What does Mr. Tao mean by making that declaration? "Emily"? Is there another "Emily" in Jingshi City? No... It can't be me!'

While still in a state of both shock and doubt, Emily suddenly got a call from Bess, who at last managed to bypass Jacob.

Staring at the number, puzzled, Emily accidentally answered the call, and a female voice came from the other end of the phone, at once.

"Hello. Is that you Emily? This is...I..." The voice on the phone sounded, cautious, as if she was nervous of speaking with Emily.

"I know who you are, Mrs. Bess," Emily said, trying to make her voice sound calm, even though she was biting her lips tightly. "What can I do for you?" asked Emily.

Bess's voice paused for a while before she continued, "Have you read the news?"

"... Yes," answered Emily.
