A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 253 You Love Me, Right

"I believe you. Of course, I believe you," he assured. Jacob's eye-brows furrowed in a deep crease. "But the situation you're in right now, isn't looking so good," he said.

More importantly, someone was controlling the police from behind the scenes. Jacob suspected that it could be Mr. Gu, but he did not rule out the possibility of Mark and his sister playing a part in this crime. Jacob could get Emily out of there now by force, but it would only make things worse for her case.

"Jacob, please help me find the murderer, okay? Find the murderer please..." said Emily.

"I will find the murderer to prove your innocence," Jacob answered.

"My parents... I want to avenge my parents' death..." she said. Emily frowned and bit her lips, bridling her anger with difficulty.

Jacob held her chin up so that she could not bite her lips. "Okay. I will avenge your parents' death. Wait for me here and I promise I will come back as soon as I find out who is behind this," he said, assuringly.

"Okay," she sighed. Emily wiped her tears and nodded him farewell.

Since the complexities of the matter required a different approach. The only thing Jacob could do now was to find out the truth as soon as possible, without wasting time.

Jacob had paid people on the inside to protect Emily from any kind of harm, and the chief of police did not dare to defy Jacob either.

As soon as Jacob left the police station, he came across Jack who was also in a hurry to see Emily. Jacob squinted at him through hardened eyes. Every muscle in his face was tense and without a word he communicated intense mistrust, anger and discontent.

"Jack, did you really believe that your childish tricks would work on me?" he said. Jacob smirked, as disdain filled his eyes, and added, "It seems that you haven't learned anything in all these years. You're still as arrogant as before."

Jack's frustration was spilling out from his eyes. He sniggered, and said, "Really? But I heard that my grandfather has stripped away your powers."

"So, I'm guessing that he gave them to you, right? You are welcome. Just take it as a little present from your uncle," Jacob answered, with a cocky smile on his face.

The Jack standing in front of Jacob was no longer the impulsive boy he used to be. The years of hardship had made him more tolerant, if not mature. "We will see who has the last laugh, dear uncle," he said to Jacob.
